I have heard Tully preach twice in my hometown. I remember that for a long time, Ric Flair was angry with Tully because that caused Arn Anderson to get his salary cut. When Triple H brought everyone out to pay tribute to him, Tully came out with Arn & Barry Windham and embraced Flair. I am glad that Ric & Tully made peace with each other.
Being able to communicate is such a powerful tool! Tully Blanchard did it so well as a wrestler and is doing it so well here! Praise God for your message and your talent, Mr. Blanchard!
This is very similar to my situation at the moment I am currently single unemployed never had a relationship and get lonely and feel helpless at the same time and yet I still have not lost hope I love my creator more than anything regardless of how severe the situation. Deep down I know he will make a way.
amen brother. this is very encouraging and inspiring. it's so true. May the lord continue to use you brother. this reminds me of this verse: TRUST IN THE LORD WITH ALL YOUR HEART AND LEAN NOT ON YOUR OWN UNDERSTANDING
As a wrestler you were the only member of the Horsemen I didn't like but as a brother in Christ you are a well loved welcome addition to the family. Thank you so much for sharing your testimony with the us. "Diamonds are forever and Gods Word stands true longer than that!"
This message came at a time when I needed it. A very powerful and humbling confession, words that mean so much to me today; a day that I needed it the most. Don't even know why I searched for Tully Blanchard today even. Thank you for the years of entertaining me. Years later, thank you for showing me how a powerful man - from the eyes of a kid - is still a powerful man, to a man that has a child the same age that used to look upon Tully Blanchard as a "hero" (or close enough therein)
@whiteman70 Yep,but the match I always wanted to see was him vs Paul Orndorff because they were both so much alike in so many ways.That was my dream match.
@owaisinus Based on his shoot interview: He failed a test for cocaine in 1989 during his time with the WWF. He'd been preparing a deal with Jim Herd and the NWA that would allow him & Arn to leave the WWF & reunite the Four Horsemen. Herd learned about the failed drug test, however, & declined to hire Tully. Around that time, Herd asked Tully his opinion of Dusty Rhodes as a WCW booker/wrestler, & Tully told him the ugly truth. Dusty responded by having Tully blackballed around the country.
@owaisinus He gave his notice to the WWF and failed a drug test due to cocaine use before he left. WCW then withdrew the contract the offered and blackballed him as a result of it.
mr. Blanchard, but didn't you have a lot of money at the time? You couldn't save any of the money, even if the it was in the millions? (I don't want to come off rude, as I am a fan of you since the four horseman days) it was so awesome to see you guys and return for the ric flair tribute! Do you still talk to Barry windham or Arn? (or both) Can having too much pride ever be good? Is there such thing as a bad pride or a good one?
@owaisinus He messed up his life with the Horseman lifestyle, and when he found Jesus he was able to get back on track. I know WCW was trying to bring him back for an original Horsemen reunion, but were about to give him a crappy deal. (Thus they gave that spot to Paul Roma. Ew.) He has wrestled in the independents sparsely since then. I know he wrestled Jeff Jarrett a few years ago at an indy show for the NWA title. But more or less, he is older now, and has a new life serving Christ.
i just got baptize today...thank tully!! god bless

An incredible testimony! Tully is truly blessed!

Tully's story is very inspiring. Reminds me of happened to HBK. These guys have legions of fans and can reach so many and I believe that they have.
I am saving this to my playlist. I never knew this about him and I have been watching for years. I am a horseman fan and a wrestling fan.
This is very similar to my situation at the moment I am currently single unemployed never had a relationship and get lonely and feel helpless at the same time and yet I still have not lost hope I love my creator more than anything regardless of how severe the situation.

Thanks Tully, That's a powerful message
I'm not a Christian (or any member of an organized religion.) But I would love to hear Tully speak. Classy and geniune this man is!
Sometimes the toughest things to give up are everything we own.
I loved him when was evil... I love him when he is good
Hope everything's fine with you Tully. Thanks for the memories.
i am truly moved by tully's testimony.we serve an awesome GOD.
very inspiring I remember him wrestling....the four horsemen...
Sometimes losing it all will make a person submit to God.
God bless you, Tully. Thanks for everything.
I like that you are a genuine man of God Tully. Thanks!
amen brother. this is very encouraging and inspiring. it's so true. May the lord continue to use you brother. this reminds me of this verse: TRUST IN THE LORD WITH ALL YOUR HEART AND LEAN NOT ON YOUR OWN UNDERSTANDING
Blanchard you're the man! I'll never forget seeing you wrestle Ronnie Garvin in Charlotte, NC. The slingshot suplex was awesome :) Much respect.
God bless! This is a wonderful testimony.

That was very powerful and it made me think about my current situation(s) with Christ.

This guy was pure gold back in the day.
TULLY U REAL IN MY EYES I COULD RELATE TO THIS WAY MORE THAN WRESTLING
great testimony!
You The man, Tully!!!
This is amazing, truly a miracle from god!
He looks so old wow-i remember him with the four horsemen in the 80's
"God row my boat" that's awesome!!
One of the better workers in the business.

@steburton what is up with barry darso? He was crusher Kruschev right?

@GhostDistortion Unfortunately, that's what it takes for some people. God has to put some people flat on their back to get them to look up.
good lucky tully
why couldn't he just go back to wrestling? nowadays if you piss hot you get suspended for like a month
Do rich guys find Jesus or do you have to be broke?
For crying out loud, what happened to all the money before he failed the drug test, up his nose?
Thanks Tully, That's a powerful message
