Orndorff was great, he should of won a belt in the wwf

[wirednampd2]

roughly 450 he's deadlifting with ease Paul was and still is one of the biggest bad asses of alltime in wrestling and mcmahon should have gavehim the strap. better businesss 4 mcmahon to have hoga chase him 4 the belt. Many in the business of wrestling will tell u he was the hardest all around workers' a perfectionist

Most wrestlers were stronger back then, most of them came from : football, olympic lifting, powerlifting & some pro-wrestlers complete in the World's Strongest Man. Today, theres more of "prettyboy muscle" focus in WWE.

Paul Orndorff. Million dollar body, 10 cent face.

Paul Orndorf visited my hometown gym in 1986. He used to workout there when the WWF was in town. 405 lbs (what he is lifting here) was just his warm up weight... I once saw him deadlift 600 lbs for 2-3 clean reps.

This video is from Rowdy Roddy Piper's greatest hits (VHS)... a highly entertaining video.

@jjkrofchik This was actually from Rowdy Roddy Pipers greatest hits VHS. I still own the tape with box and all in perfect condition. Its a great tape to have and this scene is from the classic training session, they are gearing up for fighting hogan and mr. t. Pure classic! There were other tapes to at that tim. A hogan one, tag teams greatest hits, battle royals, etc. Look out for them on ebay. They are well worth the watch and very nostalgic!

@NWpowerhouse85 hahaha look at you getting all amped up, hahaha intelligence to deadlift wow....so my MS with a 3.8 wouldnt count I dont know man have a good time on youtube kid....maybe I am color blind but those first two plates on each side look red to me

[NWpowerhouse85]

@KHLB516 Sure it was, shut the fuck up, I don't give a fuck about your pseudo internet lifts,

it requires knowledge and intelligence to get up to a 600lb deadlift, and based on how gullible and stupid you are, you obviously don't have any, they're 45lb plates, he was doing 405lbs, okay, 405, not all 45lb plates are black you fuckstick. Again, I reiterate, just shut up.

[KHLB516]

@NWpowerhouse85 25kg red plates equals 55pounds....He was also a pro football player I wouldnt say dude is F Sh## he was a world class athlete

[KHLB516]

@NWpowerhouse85 idk I never saw 45 pound red plates and the red plates are 55 pounds and I never saw some use different colored 45 pound plates.....My deadlift was 600 raw before I blew out my back and herniated three discs leading to my disability separation from the navy, but I can still dead over 520...get your own clue cus I never seen anyone load a bare with diff colored weights and have them all be 45 pound plates...
