Pat O'Connor vs Bob Orton Sr Part 3

[tornmask]

amazing!..Papa Gramps..is just as ruthless as his son Orton Jr. & grandson Randy!..All GREAT Wrestlers! x0]

[elc1960]

Great match! I remember Orton Sr. in 1972 with Eddie Graham's Florida promotion, feuding with Eddie & Mike Graham and teaming with Bobby Shane & Buddy Colt against the Brisco brothers and other teams. The Big O's sons, Bob Jr. & Barry (aka "Barry O") were both pretty good, and his grandson Randy has a good style despite the often ridiculous stuff WWE gives him to work with. Have you posted any more matches of Bob Sr.?

[BaronTurco]

My very 1st pro match was with Bob Orton in Waterloo, Iowa in 1972. He was a great worker and he healped me through the match. I last saw Bob in Las Vegas a few months before he passed away and he still had great stories to tell. He was one of the great ones who had a long, successful career.

[jarrett421]

Baron, thanks so much for your interesting comments. Please, keep them coming!

[BaronTurco]

My pleasure. I wa sincolved in the business beginning in 1961 as a photographer and writer when I was 14. I wrestled from 1973 through 1986 under a few different names. I am still a hardcore fans and historian and will never get tired of watching these great videos. I like a lot of the new workers too, like ROH & PWG. Brian Danielson is a hybrid wrestler who reminds me so much of Dory Funk Jr that it's scary. He has complete control every time he is in the ring. Too bad wwe got him.

[RSXemperor]

Agreed. If used right, Bryan has the potential to be a cornerstone of that company. He reminds me more of Jack Brisco and Bret Hart with a mix of Bret's brother Owen. He deserves to succeed because I met him in Chicago one time and he was a humble nice guy. Speaking of the Ortons, have you watched any of Randy's work? If so what do you think of it?

[BaronTurco]

@RSXemperor I watched some of Randy Orton's work and I think that he is the top worker in wwe right now. I generally don't watch wwe anymore, but if I do it's always for an Orton match. He's a great worker who can work the crowd very well. He's got a great look too.

[Takerfanatic93]

Orton is a joke. Your a Worker huh? The guy is boring in the ring, most of his matches are just headlocks and other holds. To say that hes the Top Worker in WWE right now is just retarded. Jericho would be the best Worker in WWE. Hes a good In-Ring performer, great Mic-worker and just overall a far better Worker then Randy" Headlock " Orton is.

[BaronTurco]

@Takerfanatic93

Jerico is loved by many, but that doesn't make him the best performer. You're just a mark.

Signed,

Just Retarded

[BaronTurco]

@Takerfanatic93 OK, you may know a thing, but definitely not two. Nobody would believe such an outrtageous statement. Are you afraid to name your best friend? You are because it's all bullshit.

I won't be giving you any more responses. I'm too busy fighting off women as I walk down Rodeo Drive in Beverly Hills, where I am often mistaken for Brad Pitt, even at 61., whereas you may be mistaken for a peach pit.

[Takerfanatic93]

He was actually signed for over a year, I've never seen him more miserable, he has an open door back but he's much happier in DDT and ROH, and he's allowed to have good matches. And his work was good enough for Flair to pull him aside after an ROH match and compliment him.

[BaronTurco]

@Takerfanatic93 Patterson has an open back door too, but he is happy in wwe. Now bend over and say aaah.

[BaronTurco]

@Takerfanatic93

I always called matches as we went. This planning the whole thing out before hand is crap. Kenny Omega is a great worker. Sure, get me booked in Canada. I bet there's a real stampede to go see ex-wrestlers over 60 workAnd all of this flowing bullshit from Kenny's pal in because I had the audicity to like Randy Orton. Everyone knows that the only REAL TOP TALENT in pro wrtestling history was FRANK "SPACEMAN" HICKEY. He was goofy, just like you, only likeable goofy. .

[Takerfanatic93]

Yeah, Kenny is great, although the comedy spots are too much sometimes. And who are you now? You still havent told me. Tom Hankins? Trained by Harley Race? And yeah i know Hickey, but what does he have to do with that here now.

[BaronTurco]

@Takerfanatic93 I'm Red's twin brother, Fred Bastien.

[Takerfanatic93]

1. Theres a Red Bastien, heard some storys of him from Ox. Never heard of a Fred Bastien. 2. I think i know who you are now, so please dont give me some funny answers. 3. Ive heard some weird shit today. You know ive checked some things and it said that a guy called Bill Goldberg will get inducted in HoF 2011. What a joke! That guy could not work!

[josephD32]

@Takerfanatic93 LOL! Since when are people inducted into the HoF for being able to work?

[BaronTurco]

@Takerfanatic93 I'm from parts unknown and my identity remains a mystery until I am beaten in a Firey Cage of Death Match with exploding barbed wire.

[Takerfanatic93]

Listen up, you dont need to talk shit here, i know who you are. Your finisher was the flying neckbreaker and i also know that you had a feud with Brisco. Crazy Charlie Reid..

[Takerfanatic93]

Don Callis, who if you knew anything is good friends with Jericho and the two go way back to the IWA days and the infamous 'hell tours' with Tony Condello (these tours made scott norton, rhino, edge, christain, everyone just break, I have some funny stories)

Send me your pack and I'll egt you booked, promise, but i bet your a liar anyway.

[Takerfanatic93]

Who are you anyway? Who trained you? When did you start with Pro-wrestling? Ive seen your profile? Theres a link and error when i copy and paste it. Crazy Charlie Reid??

[BaronTurco]

@Takerfanatic93 If your best friend is Davey Richards, then I'll apologize. Next you'll be telling me that Necro Butcher is better than Richards! I'll be seeing Davey Friday and I'll ask him who you are and how great you really are. His answer will be "who?"

[BaronTurco]

@Takerfanatic93 HO HUM & YAWN

[BaronTurco]

@Takerfanatic93 GEE, did I say something to upset you?

If you'd like I'll send you a dictionary, as you really seem to seriously need one.

I know full well who Don Callas is. I'd be shocked to hear him admit that he even knows who you are, wannabe. Oops..I'm afraid I've upset you again. Well, it doesn't take much to upset a pea-brained, noodle-armed moron like you.

[BaronTurco]

@Takerfanatic93 Couldn't cut it and ran off to school. Same old story.

[BaronTurco]

@Takerfanatic93 Oh my. You sound like a careless, wreckless wrestler, getting busted up so much. No wonder you went back to school. But you were trained by a writer...that's just wonderful. It must have been Vince Russo.

[DerFlaechenbomber]

The only mark in here is you so called Worker. Everyone with a brain knows that Jericho is a far better In-Ring performer and Mic-worker than Orton. Get a clue, looser.

[BaronTurco]

@DerFlaechenbomber

How much looser is it, loser?

[DerFlaechenbomber]

Yeah..thats the only thing you can say LOL. You a re 61 years old? What a joke. You should be ashamed of yourself!!!

[BaronTurco]

@DerFlaechenbomber Do you like to shoot? I can stretch you right now and give you grammer & spelling lessons at the same time. You can hide behind your computer school boy, so don't fear.

And remember everyone, if you like Randy Orton, according to this multi-named moron, you have no brain. He's giddy over Jerico. I like Jerico too, but I'm not slobbering all over him. The mere fact that you chose to argue with me over this pointless issue, shows that your are indeed a mark of the lowest rung.

[14mdj]

Dang! that's sad that Bob Orton Sr. died.

[SYDNEYFC7]

brilliant workers,great match, finish was a little bit sloppy,but thats the way pro wrestling should still be.

[eslubin]

what's wrong with the end. it's wrestling its not ballet. its supposed to be rough. you're in there trying to move your opponent into a disadvantageous position and o'connor pulled it off

[wrestle2uk]

Like this paced style of wrestling with well worked holds......
