  • Paul's listed as 262 and Tony as 251!?

    Maybe those weights are reversed!

    Actually, I'd put Paul at 250 and Atlas at at least 265, maybe 270! He's freaking huge!

  • The nice thing about juiced about Atlas is that unlike many bodybuilders, at least he actually did have some athletic ability and some wrestling skills!

  • The original "Masterpiece" Paul Orndorff

  • Orndorff pinning Atlas? C'mon. Give me a break.

  • @lildwayne21 Ornorff was a good wrestler but after his matches with Hogan ..Paul never got back into main events .a mid carder till the end of his career

  • Orndorff also had a tendency to get jealous easily. For a guy that feuded with Hulk Hogan a lot during his WWF tenure, Orndorff always seemed to get jealous when he wasn't featured in the main events wrestling Hogan. I know that Orndorff & Hogan were very good friends in real life, but Orndorff would grow very bitter and do a lot of bitching if he was stuck in the midcard and not wrestling Hogan. He loved working with Hogan. That was his homie. He loved beating him up and making money with him

  • Mr. Wonderful Paul Orndorff was a tremendous wrestler, but the more I watched him wrestle I've always felt that he had an angry streak that ran through him and the more I see him in action, the more I feel my perception is correct. Throughout his career Paul Orndorff battled some demons, and his biggest detriment to his success was his ego. He was his own biggest fan. He wanted everything to be handed it to him on a silver platter and he wanted to be in all the main events. Very impatient man.

  • @fashizze But Orndorff is a much better wrestler than Tony Atlas is. Orndorff could do it all in that ring. He could wrestle extremely well if it boiled down to a scientific match and he definitely knew how to fight. Tony Atlas for the most part was just a body. Tony Atlas is the type of guy who needed a lot of instruction before he competed in a match. If Atlas didn't receive a lot of instruction of have someone to lead him, he couldn't have a good match on his own.

  • Can you download the entire show plz?

  • Tony Atlas = The definition of "Soul Power"...

  • Atlas was a bodybuilder, emphasis on WAS.

    in a pro wrestling posedown, whoever wins the beatdown after, wins.

  • @onederful100 gimme a break Tony Atlas was a professional body builder before he got into wrestling .and he competed in competitons for mr universe ..orndorff is just a bodybuilder who wrestles ..watch tuesday night titans that shows both of them in a posing contest .Atlas had a pretty good posing routine ..while orndorff looked like an average man trying to pose ...it was a mismatch
