Theodore R Long, one hell of a human being. Anytime I get a chance to hear an interview with him I jump on it his voice is soothing and he's nothing but truthful and a good honest man. Nothing but love for Teddy Long❤👍🙏
Halfway through this, could listen to Teddy Long talk all day. His run as GM on SmackDown - that was my favourite period of SD, it was the best show in WWE at that time, Teddy was class as GM, star power all over it - Kurt Angle, Eddie Guerrero, so damn good man. Fuck the racist crap he had to put up with, genuinely angry to hear about that shit.
I am sure that the "racist crap" he benefited from throughout his entire career, more than made-up for the "racist crap" that he experienced and/or imagined.
To all the kids 25 and younger PLEASE OPEN YOUR EARS AND TAKE NOTE about what Mr. Long is telling us. Because this is what back in the day what we would call "going to school"! Teddy Long is a true legend of pro wrestling. I respect and love him so much! He's such a beautiful human being just an amazing man! I dont know him personally but have been around him plenty of times just a good guy.
You ever notice how Teddy and most wrestlers can tell you the exact city where incidents happened, but not necessarily the event? For example, Kevin Nash would say "We put them over at the pay-per-view in Charlotte" instead of Slamboree.
Well easier to remember traveling to a city or being there over what they named event. There was a time it was just another number for Starcade or Wrestlemania. Clash of Champions was like a Number with a Unique Name so heh. I bet he remembers my Birthday when he dropped Giant for Souled Out PPV :).
In his wcw days teddy had the size of a wrestler I use to see him in Smyrna ga at the McDonalds eating. He was friendly. I was a teenager this was the early 90s
@adriangreen9785 No. Your comment was cool, don't get me wrong. I'm just trying to picture Teddy Long with size. But I've I never had an opportunity to meet him or see him in person.But that's cool. I'm just trying to picture him with size.
It's time to tell it like it is. You are now the very best of them all. I Hava watched you grow and get better and better and now you are THE MAN. NOW THE HARD PART IS TO STAY THE.BEST
The Droz, D Lo Brown incident wasn't the oil.. I saw a DLo shoot interview where he explained Droz had this stupid shirt tied around his waist for ring attire. When he went to give him the running bomb he grabbed his waist the shirt caused his hands to slip botching the move.
Johnny Ace probably holds a grudge about the Fast Count Costing Road Warriors Titles to Varsity Club. Teddy sounds kinda bitter about him so would take things with grain of salt. Bellas in Hot Tubs is not as exciting as Tony Atlas heh. I was more a fan of him as a Referee though I think Doom probably didn't last as long from Butch Reed having his drinking issues. Kofi is lucky that Brock stopped Kofimania as if he worked stiff it probably would have been rough :). Ricky Steamboat for some reason is like only Face always liked. Sabu is my favorite then guys like RVD or Mike Awesome or Hayabusa along with Road Warriors, Steamboat, Ric Rude, probably Jake The Snake to a degree. I think I was more into Heels. I even cheered Franchise or Impact Players at times. Even when he did the Gary Wolfe Halo spot :). Lots of fun stories for sure ;).
@@kingstonellington817 All of them should be taken with a grain of salt. I hear people with positive stories of him :). Teddy Long is a big of a Grifter or is very bitter as well. Whether he saw or heard things or not. Certain people don't age well while others bloom :). He was a shady shifty Ref for a reason :).
My pothead moment was smoking a blunt inside former Senator Roy Blunt childhood home that his dad used to own in the mid 2000's. The house was rented out and the tenants smoked and I lived across the road.
Teddy is one of the coolest people. I love how down to earth he is. Amazing human.

Bedroom tips from Teddy Long. Can't say that was on the yearly Bingo card.
Great interview. Teddy Long is awesome. 😂
Torrie Wilson was the overall prettiest, and Kiebler
I am convinced ( always have been) that Teddy’s cool personality is the reason for his success in wrestling

@@remywhite4377 Why?
"Racist crap" never cost him a job, but it sure kept him in one.
@@John.Flower.Productionsalways has to be a prejudiced pos like you trying to ruin something with your ignorance. Get focked.
I think Mr Theodore llong is one of the greatest general manager in wwe.

maybe remembering where it was is just easier, there are multiple slamborees. but who knows

This is my guy!Good ol'Crown N Coke days back when he was a ref with a jerri curl.😂Good man.
Teddy Long is a solid guy! I had the pleasure of hosting a WWE PPV event in New York City with him. Love these stories and memories he shared.
God Bless Teddy the Memories
Great great guy!!
Teddy was always entertaining. Would love to have met him.
Big love to Teddy, proper LEGEND, love this dude 👍🇬🇧👍🇬🇧.
I remember in the early 90s, I was so confused as a ten year old as I'd see teddy as a ref and manager.

I saw Butch at the racetrack gas station and he was lit. I remember like it was yesterday.
Teddy is an awesome guy, chilling recollection of Droz' injury. RIP to a good soul

There's a lot of people who have negative stories about Johnny Ace. Why should Teddy's be taken with a grain of salt?

Thank you announcer guy
Teddy long a very nice person for real
Wow Dr Death and Hawk I know that was a good fight because both of them for where strong men and Dr Death was one of the strongest men in wrestling
RoboCop was bought in to WCW because I think RoboCop 2 or 3 was coming out in the theater & maybe RoboCop 1 was going to be shown on TBS Cable TV
Buck Zumhofe was the enhancement guy u were talkn about being put n the body bag
Love Teddy Long!
The one shoot interview I really wanted to watch has the most ads, like every five minutes
Teddy makes simple in this interview of his character breakdown. We over think the his character .
My pothead moment was smoking a blunt inside former Senator Roy Blunt childhood home that his dad used to own in the mid 2000's. The house was rented out and the tenants smoked and I lived across the road.
In an ultinate universe somewhere, Mark Mero's Wrestling Name is Tooty Fruity😂
Great Interview!!
Finally player 😂
The G.O.A.T! 🎊🎊🎊🎊🎊🎊🎊🎊🥇🥇🥇🥇🏆🏆🏆🏆
Think it was Gunner Scott who was put in the body bag. In 2006 by Khali maybe?
Teddy very enteresting guy
SmackDown! Greatest General Manager of All Time. Forever a legend...Forever in my childhood.
