HOW ON GODS GREEN EARTH CAN ANYONE WATCH "WWE" NOW A-DAYS
WHEN YOU WATCH THIS!! MY GOD WRESTLING WAS SO AWESOME BACK THEN, WTF DID THEY DO! NOW YOU GOT A BUNCH OF GUY's RUNNING AROUND CLAIMING TOO BE THE BEST OR "AWESOME" WOW ARE YOU KIDDING ME! THANX FOR KILLING THE SHOW "CREATIVE" GREAT SHOW!
Last week honest I tried watching wrestling for at least 10min, I just couldn't. no talent what so ever!!! Shame shame!
@Guyver5182 So true, but Rick Rude, and Mr. Perfect, made the IC Title during this time pretty much above status of the WWE Title, and World Title in 2012.
And as top mid carders, Rick, and Perfect got more TV time then Hogan.
It´s so sad, that Bobby is a bad healthy shape right now, hearing him talk like that. That´s a totally different Bobby Heenan in the past compared to the present.
funny how nearly all the wrestlers in those days we're fun and great to watch now only a handful can hold it to the likes of rude, honky tonk and jake the snake, and its not just nostalgia i watched a few old matches and they are way more natural and dynamic. today its too over choreographed and repetitive
Ravishing Rick Rude was phenomenal. I truly believe that, if not for some bad breaks in his career, he'd be mentioned in the same breath with guys like Stone Cold, the Rock, and Hogan. I think that he made a mistake in leaving the WWE in 1990 and going to WCW, which was a second rate organization. He was clearly on his way to great things in the WWE. Also, his career-ending injury in 1994 was a bad blow. It's kind of sad, IMO.
@Edgehead10075 No, he made the right move to jump to WCW. In the WWF there was a backstage pecking order where Hogan would always be in the title hunt and anyone else was clearly a midcarder unless they were something special (Taker, Warrior). Rude realized his feud with Warrior was over and he'd never be in the main event again so he bolted for a fresh start where he could main event almost instantly. The 94 injury robbed his chance to bolt back to WWF when Hogan took WCW over backstage.
Even if what you're saying is true, eventually Warrior and Hogan were gone. Rude would have definitely been a main eventer during the time when Bret Hart was a main eventer. Yes, Rude was a world champion in WCW, but going to WCW definitely lowered his profile. I happen to think that Rude was something special.
@Edgehead10075 It took a full year to get rid of the Warrior and Hogan wasn't gone for good until 1993. Rude's jump to WCW put him in the main events almost instantly that he wouldn't have gotten in WWE. Sgt Slaughter and Rude's best friend Perfect were the featured stars and Rude would have been floundering in the mid card. Had he not gotten injured in 94, he could have jumped back to WWE after main eventing (or close to it) for 2 years.
@J5MARLON No - Rude's contract wasn't up - he left WWF over a pay dispute. Rude was scheduled to be apart of the 1990 survivor series, but was replaced on the heel team by Haku.
It just made sense for him to manage Micheals,wish that lasted longer...he left because of thescrewjob I think and/or money... can't blame the man, he also had a screwed up neck do to sting botching something in Japan(I think sting...)
I wonder if he would have lived longer he would have managed him during his comeback run and re-unite with him and Triple H
I always preferred when he had the longer hair. He looked too generic with the short hair but I was still a fan of Rude. You had more fat wrestlers back then so he was "special".
Damn! I miss the older wrestlers ...they had so much more charisma than most of the stars today. Wrestling was so much fun...not that PG crap that's on today.
Rick was an incredibly intelligent and well spoken man and to this day i still consider him 1 of the best ever.His body was awesome,i think the best body i ever saw.Miss you Rick,R.I.P..................................................RR
@mbranco24 It was the last appearance he made as an active performer before quitting the company over a pay dispute over his match vs. Warrior at Summerslam.
i think Ravishing Rick Rude had the most incredible body however i still think they didn't give him much respect like they should have, beside being a heel he was a very good wrestler
@violetviolence79 Yes he was.That was a real stupid storyline to have Rude start a fight by saying bad things about Bossman's mom.Because Rude was a bad guy I had a feeling that Rude was being pushed down the card because in those days the good guy always prevailed over the bad guy.I don't remember seeing Rude after this.
It sucks that Rick Rude has'nt been included in the WWE HOF, Vince McMahon sure knows how to hold a grudge. There never was any mention of his death or even a tribute.
@360whiplash What was then WWF.com did have a story on his death, that's where I found out about it. They even made mention of Rude's appearance on RAW and Nitro on the same night as "having made history," IIRC.
I pride myself on knowing the histrionics of the WWF (back when it was decent brand) around this period, but I had no idea Rude and Bossman feuded. Rude goes from feuding with Warrior at Summerslam to the lower ranks with Bossman.
This was the same year that Earthquake injured Hulk Hogan's sternum in an attack on Brother Love's show. So Jack Tunney set the precedence: You can break a man's sternum, just don't insult their mother...
a gay freddie mercury ? freddie was gay- died of aids. they do look alike, rick rude is one of the greatest ever, these were the days, todays characters dont even come close
What I'd like to have now...is for all you fat, out of shape, youtube sweathogs, keep the noise down while I take my robe off and thumbs up this video!
@Pryce121 I always thought so, but once he was chased by the Ultimate Warrior and his white Jacket was red and then I noticed that it was red Make Up.
What I'd like right now is for all you FAT, UGLY, OUT-OF-SHAPE YOUTUBers to keep the noise down while I take my robe off and show the ladies what a real man is all about. Now hit the fuckin music. LOL!
Everything was better back then, especially the characters. It's why I come here to watch wrestling. I have not watched current wrestling for over three years now. Today's WW"E" just plain sucks.
Also Id like to point out even though we never got to see Big Bossman vs Ravishing Rick Rude in the WWE, we did however get to see the feud take place in WCW in 1993, They faced on an episode of WCW Saturday Night in 1993 with The Big Bossman ( known as The Boss ) victorious. They met again at Starrcade 1993, with Rude getting the win at that encounter.
Ravishing Rick Rude was getting over great in this era as a main event star. This new aditude that Rick Rude was showing being relentless in the ring, cutting his hair, it was a more badass Rick Rude we were seeing here. Too bad Rick Rude left WWE in 1990, I think had Rick Rude not left WWE, he could have been the WWE Champion. it is also a shame we never got to see a match between Hulk Hogan and Rick Rude, WWE could have make some serious money with that kind of feud.
@mrjamesb562 Actually it was GHB that was in his system... steroids had nothing to do with it. He was cycling to get back into shape and they were in his system but they had little to do with his passing. I know the medias blanket on steroids is to present them as this evil drug, but alcohol kills more people then steroids ever will. Hell Lyle Alzado was injecting GH from human corpses. Actual anabolics are an easy scapegoat, trust me watch a video or two about them and you'll think differently
@Martinl792002 - Anabolic Steroids often raise LDL (Bad) Cholesterol , a Bad # is 200 ,Steroid use can elevate that to 800+,that can cause heart failure due to arteriosclerotic cardiovascular disease.
@mrjamesb562 Theirs' alot of different studies, alot of that as well goes into the dosages you are taking. When I played football I cycled in the offseason from 1998-2002 using Deca and Dianabols as prescribed, I think where alot of these guys go over board is to attain that ripped at 250-275 kinds of bodies, and using HUGE dosages. Hell the Governator popped 20 pills a day! I just think that it's a combination of so much shit in your body that takes the lives of guys, it's sad regardless though
@Martinl792002 - The Governato has also had a Couple of Heart Surgeries,when I was playing ball Dianabol and Winstrol-Stanozolol were popular , I never tried any , These Wrestlers never have an Off Season and I doubt someone like Eddie Guerrero ever"Cycled down" much,Search Youtube and you'll find a clip where Sting flies out of the Ring and breaks Rude's neck and You are Right, it is Sad ,I'm not Saying 'Roids are Evil and if that was the Difference between making Millions of Dollars ,maybe..
@mrjamesb562 Yeah, a couple linemen at my high school were big into d-bols, being a linebacker I wanted to know how these kids were benching 400 as sophmores. After that though I just felt it wasn't necessary after my last year at NIU... What annoyed me was during the Benoit tragedy when all these fools like Mark Mero are trying to grab their final 15 minutes by throwing all the blame into the drugs and not himself. I hear ya, personally I would rather just use natural supplements today
@Martinl792002 -Watch the CBC Documentary on Benoit (I'll send you the link) The 1st Part is a little Cheesy but once you get to the Neurologists findings, it gets interesting, It's Clear that Benoit suffered from a Form of Dementia from Multiple Concussions...
this was to turn into a rivalry between big bossman and rick rude, then why did jack tunney fire rick rude when all his comments about bossman's mother was scripted? that was a big mistake made by the WWF... he could have been a potential wwf heavyweight champion... who would have thought that 3 years later they would have a rivalry in WCW...
He found out how much Warrior got paid for Summerslam compared to him so he walked. WCW gladly offered him a contract and a push which saw him win the belt. Vince shouldn't of been a tight ass.
You can tell Rude's heart isn't in this promo. He still pulls it off well, but you know he realizes he's about to leave WWE. Letting Rude go was one of WWE's biggest mistakes ever, and WCW profited from that. He helped make WCW look good from late '91 to mid '94, despite backstage turmoil in WCW.
He should have been the champ at some point! same for mr.Perfect!! Hulk Hogan could have let these guys have a chance but he had to go milk hulkamania too much instead!!!
@aquemeni541 Of course,Rude's suspension was only on screen because he had actually left WWF due to a contract dispute.WCW utilized him 10 times better than Vinnie Mac was ever willing to.
if you realy nortice every wrestler since he took over the wwe that all of his wrestlers passed away befor they was 50 50/50 heart attacks and drug over doses and machmann forced they to use steroids to keep up with apearence wtf machmann put hit out on benoit
if you realy nortice every wrestler since he took over the wwe that all of his wrestlers passed away befor they was 50 50/50 heart attacks and drug over doses and machmann forced they to use steroids to keep up with apearence wtf
@veeseee128 He was a married man, you douche. And you wouldn't have had the balls to say that to him if he was still alive, so go piss off, you stupid ass troll!
Gotta love this clip - "Brother Ravishing". What a weird combination of words. And of course, the inimitable Bruce Pritchard as "Brother Love". He's still employed by WWE to this very day. And of course, the great Bobby Heenan. One of the greatest wrestling personalities in history. Three truly memorable men here in this clip. Look on YouTube for the appearance Bobby and Rude made on "Regis And Kathie Lee" . . . priceless, simply priceless.

I hear ya, personally I would rather just use natural supplements today

@Martinl792002 -Watch the CBC Documentary on Benoit (I'll send you the link) The 1st Part is a little Cheesy but once you get to the Neurologists findings, it gets interesting, It's Clear that Benoit suffered from a Form of Dementia from Multiple Concussions...

this was to turn into a rivalry between big bossman and rick rude, then why did jack tunney fire rick rude when all his comments about bossman's mother was scripted? that was a big mistake made by the WWF... he could have been a potential wwf heavyweight champion... who would have thought that 3 years later they would have a rivalry in WCW...

He found out how much Warrior got paid for Summerslam compared to him so he walked. WCW gladly offered him a contract and a push which saw him win the belt. Vince shouldn't of been a tight ass.
donnywharfare 1 year ago
You can tell Rude's heart isn't in this promo. He still pulls it off well, but you know he realizes he's about to leave WWE. Letting Rude go was one of WWE's biggest mistakes ever, and WCW profited from that. He helped make WCW look good from late '91 to mid '94, despite backstage turmoil in WCW.

@aquemeni541 Of course,Rude's suspension was only on screen because he had actually left WWF due to a contract dispute.WCW utilized him 10 times better than Vinnie Mac was ever willing to.

Gotta love this clip - "Brother Ravishing". What a weird combination of words. And of course, the inimitable Bruce Pritchard as "Brother Love". He's still employed by WWE to this very day. And of course, the great Bobby Heenan. One of the greatest wrestling personalities in history. Three truly memorable men here in this clip. Look on YouTube for the appearance Bobby and Rude made on "Regis And Kathie Lee" . . . priceless, simply priceless.
