At Uncle Elmer's Wedding the best line ever was . " I don't know McMahon...you tell me ...are the rings going on their fingers or in their noses" .
So many great one liners in that one
No. The best line was from my client Jesse Ventura . When Elmer kissed his bride .... Looks like two fish in the Mississippi river fighting over the same piece of carp
@@universaltalentbookings1389 - two carp in the Mississippi River fighting over the same piece of corn.
Lawler won a match in Memphis?! Shocking.
Must have been a fluke!
Brian: "I don't need to hear any more details."
Corny: "A growth on his lap, is what it looked like."
I loved all the gimmicks: Plowboy Frazier, Kamala II, The Lone Ranger, Playboy Frazier, Uncle Elmer and the Giant Hillbilly.
A seven foot hillbilly? That's good shit, pal!
Pascagoula? That's where the squirrel went berserk in the First Self-Righteous Church as well.
I Too Love Me Some Ray Stevens
@@frankbonini9128 Thats the first thing I thought of!
Saw the picture and thought of Miro in Southpaw Regional Wrestling!!!
I remember uncle elmer had a big bucket of uncle elmers fried pig parts while being interviewed for his match with king kong bundy.
I met Frazier in the early 80s. My dad owned a commercial building that we had an arcade in. He also rented space to others, one of the tenants had an import business from Korea and Frazier came into the arcade looking for him. I’m guessing that’s where he got some of the “fine jewelry” he was infamous for selling the boys.
Lmao! "Neighbor I buy my cologne by the gallon"
I completely understand buying your cologne by the gallon but why carry the whole gallon with you? I’d decant it in to a reasonably sized bottle.
I would've loved to hear him retell the story of how Plowboy knocked himself out in the dressing room
Did he slip, fall and knock himself out backstage like Kevin Randalman did in the UFC?
@@Mister_Phafanapolis no, the dressing room door was a little too small and he didn't duck enough trying to get through it. Knocked himself out cold and nobody could budge him out of the way.
For anyone who hasn't seen the Great Antonio search for the video of him and Inoki. Great example of what happens if you don't cooperate with Inoki.
Speaking of Frazier working with Andre. It seemed like in late '85 when he was Uncle Elmer they were looking to do tag matches with Andre & Elmer vs John Studd & King Kong Bundy, but it never happened.
That would have been... Interesting to watch. Probably not good, but certainly interesting.
"That thumbnail looks like two carp fighting over the same piece of corn in the Mississippi River McMahon." Jesse Ventura
"I thought I smelled bacon cooking." Jesse Ventura about Vince's hillbillies around 1985...
Jesse actually said 'corn' not fish the carp was fighting over
@@dwade6322 nice ... you are right ..I will correct
I can remember watching him say that in the late 80's.. i think it was when UNCLE ELMER got 'married' in the ring. Funny how i recall that stuff from 35 yrs ago.
Lol 👍.. I still use the line about the rings going in their noses and not on their fingers from that show when I see an ugly couple...lol 👍
Uncle Fraizer Elmer is the greatest country Giant in wrestling back in the golden days it's fantastic miss him in WWF rest in peace Country boy Elmer
I absolutely LOVE Uncle Elmer’s wedding! “Where’s the slop bucket, McMahon!”
😂😂😂 he said, “the people don’t knew about all that”
I seem to recall a brief Mid-South tag team involving Terry Gordy and Plowboy Frazier called “The Cowboy and the Plowboy.” Can someone confirm this?
He was from pascagoula mississippi and my trainer when I broke into the Indy wrestling
Love Cornettes stories ❤
WHO IN THE FUCK IS PLOWBOY FRAZIER?
According to Hillbilly Jim in a shoot interview, Frazier was in the KKK for real.
Listen again, he only said that he heard rumours about it. Jim never says 'yes, Elmer was a KKK member'
I can't wait for tomorrow when he tears MJF and Jericho's Vegas trip.
I gotta be honest I found that pretty funny. It had no place on a wrestling show mind you but I would watch that movie if they ever made it lol
I thought it was pretty pointless. It seems like Omega got tired of Corny giving him a hard time for his wardrobe though. 😂
Lol
@What a Maneuver! I listen to Keepin it 100 and I popped to that.
@KaneMagus Because the comments section is unrestricted and I don't know much about territory wrestling to comment on this exact topic?
The guy who sold fake Rolexes😭
My favorite thing they did with Plowboy in Memphis was when they made him Kamala 2. Lance Russell almost pissed himself on Live Saturday Morning TV Laughing his ass off.
Best hair vs hair is the two matches between Chigusa Nagayo and Dump Matsumoto. If you haven't seen the most over wrestler of the 1980s take on the embodiment of all the fears of Japanese schoolgirls you owe this one to yourself. As somebody who has been watching wrestling since '83 I can say that this is one of the biggest crowd responses I've ever seen.
Me V Nature. I lost quick.
Jim Cornette without context:
"A growth on his lap."
Awesome segment 👏
What a great story! I loved this one
The cologne story at 9:37 is fuckin hilarious. "whaddaya say to that?" HAHAHAHA
I was at Uncle Elmer's wedding at the Meadowlands in NJ for Saturday Night's Main Event!!! Not sure what year...84??
It was 10/3/85 and aired on 10/5. I remember Ventura burying them on air.
@@michaelmarino7391 "Looks like two salmon going upstream for the same piece of corn!!!" Or something like that,right??
Yeah!🤣😂😁 I think it was 2 Carp, not 100% sure, but definitely a fish reference
Great as always Jimmy!!
The Wrestler with a Thousand Names!
There's picture's of Andre The Giant and Plow Boy Frazier being the same height.
Andre was a couple of inches taller
@@bobrobertson3372 Google their picture, Andre was on his Tippi toes like in most pictures
I repeatedly heard his name as Flyboy Frazier on the podcast until I just noticed the title.
That's how its booked
R.I.P. Stanley Fraizer! U were a true wrestling giant!
IT LOOKED LIKE A GROWTH LMFAO
Elmer was WAY over in the WWF. Watch some of those matches from the 1980s at the Garden.
He was. I remember his wedding on Saturday Night's Main Event. To be honest, I was shocked to see Frazier in the WWF but it worked out for him.
Thanks
Second Kamala?
Plowboy isn’t a bad speaker in the promo. Sounds like a real guy, not a staged promo
Good old boy with KKK connections so Them southern boys sticking together for the KKK .COME BE A MAN JOIN THE CLAN.
They Had a "The Convict" Gimmick Similar to Plowboy in the Oklahoma-Based IZW a Few Years Ago. He Even Had Him Hold the Heavyweight Championship till the Guy, Who Was a Face, qRunning the Company Decided to Turn Heel and Give Himself the Title
That's not the Fred Allen the guy at the beginning was comparing him to.
Stops video mid way to watch Tupelo Concession Stand Brawl 1979...
Tell Dave Meltzer that P.Y. Chu Hi is my all time favorite Japanese wrestler.
As a Yankee I have to ask what plowboy meant in the south in the 1970s. Was it simply a farm worker? Was it an insult, like someone who isn't smart enough to do anything besides menial field work?
The idea was that Fraizer was so strong that he pulled a plow by himself rather than relying on a machine or labor animal.
The best way Lawler could've won the hair vs hair match and got nuclear heat was by "kidnapping" Elmer's mama and threaten to hurt her real bad if Elmer doesn't forfeit the match and handcuff himself to the ropes. Then Lawler pushes his mama down goes to the ring and hits him with a chair over the head (unprotected) and then shave his head while he's unconscious.
5:24 I know what he meant,but it still sounds wrong 🤣
It sounds like he hated him. I don't think his promo was bad.
9:25...
Mortar-Board?... Is that Dura-Rock or Sheet-Rock?
Hey guys.
RIP Jim, you will be sorely missed! This was a great episode to end with, we will always remember you Jim, thank you for always being there. REST IN POWER
What
Huh???
Hey Jim . Question. If there was some one today you would back with your racket let it be WWE AEW or any of independent circuit. Whom would it be ? And why?
He doesn’t answer questions on TH-cam. 😂
