I really miss my era of WWF Wrestlers , Earthquake, Yokozuna, Randy Savage, Mr. Perfect, Warrior, Luna Vachon and more, rest in paradise ✝️ 😢
Same here! 😢
I actually remember watching this guy as a kid when he supposedly crushed Jake the snake Roberts python while it was still in the sack!
Yes, Damian. And Jake came back with a bigger one, Lucifer.. If I remember correctly, it was supposedly because Earthquake was terrified of snakes, and Jake had been taunting him with Damian, lol!
@@Tinaf653 Wow that brings back some memories! That goes back a long ways!
He needs to be inducted into Hall of Fame. John also played Rugby
He was such a great wrestler
I remember thinking as a kid, "After Shock should have been his name" when he went to WCW and had the name "AVALANCHE".
And the shark lol “ not not shark, I’m not a fish, IM A MAN!” RIP earthquake !
He had alot of raw talent!! He was more than just a big guy , he could definitely move , as always respectful, thanks Lamont!!
Love watching him wrestle, especially him and tugboat as Natural Disaster tag team, my childhood memories of the early 90's.
Thank you Lamont.
I never heard of this wrestler. Thank you for telling us about this man. Rest in peace John Tenta
What are you, 10?
You never heard of the Natural Disasters, the epic titles match with MONEY INC
John Tenta grew up and went to school in Surrey British Columbia. My husband was in the same athletic program with him and he said John was always a really nice guy. Sad he died so young.
R.I.P John Tenta from a fellow Canadian in Toronto Canada 🇨🇦
RIP 🪦 🕊
I remember watching his debut when it was first aired. Great memories
My son loved wrestling and Hulk was his hero. Thank you for sharing this story. RIP Earthquake
RIP John earthquake Tenta 🕊 I grew up watching WWF and I remember him and Jake the Snake Robert's segment were he kayfab squash Damien.
Saw Earthquake wrestle Hulk Hogan with Dino Bravo helping cheat- at the Cow Palace in San Francisco in 1990- The theatrics were funny
One of the many wrestlers I watched through my childhood
I hated Earthquake gimmick. I remember him entering the WWE by being the person that Dino Bravo let sit in his back to do push ups. He did a great job of being a huge heel. As I got older and learned about his real history I felt like “damn man! If I woulda known this history I woulda loved you!l
I can’t believe he died so young! 43!? I’m about to be 42! He looked old (prolly the hair) when we were kids. What a great upload and story. Ty. I spiked the like.
Earthquake was 27 years old when he feuded with Hulk Hogan in 1990. That's crazy. He looked around 40.
Yesterday made it 16 years since his passing. May he be at peace.
I loved him. I watched him as 6 year old, he was my introduction into the wwf, tv was on and the wwf was on, from there the rest was history
John Tenta was a great part of my childhood. He was definitely a memorable wrestler.
I just learned 6/7 years ago that he was Golga! Speaking of the Oddities, Luna would make an interesting video!
Imagine randomly seeing your first and last name on a stone as he’s strolling the cemetery… Jim Carrey: ‘Alrighty then’
Rip to Mr Tenta 💐
John Tenta died too soon. You can hear the rumble underground as you approach his tomb. The earth is still quaking.
I would leave a Cartman doll on the grave in honor of Golga. And if you haven't already you should visit Yokozuna's grave.
Hi Lamont hope you're well mate.
I remember when Jimmy Hart called out Earthquake from the crowd when Ultimate Warrior fought Dino Bravo. An amazing wrestler John was, and so agile for a big man
RIP JOHN TENTA EARTHQUAKE from Liverpool UK 🙏.
Thank you for sharing this video. I highly respected the career of John Tenta. Rest in peace.
I hated Hogan growing up, until he became Hollywood Hogan. When Earthquake squashed Hogan on the brother love show, that was awesome.
I followed John's career and WCW really screwed him over. He was going to be apart of a big angle that would main event a PPV with the likes of Ric Flair, Roddy Piper, Arn Anderson, Kevin Nash, Scott Hall and Syxx. At the last moment Tenta was called a amatuer and his involvement with the match was nixed live on air. John had to be held back from kicking Anderson's and Flair's ass for real afterward. John was a wonderful family man that was too good for the business.
Thanks for this Lamont a lot of these wrestlers die young RIP John Tenta 🙏. 👍👊🇬🇧🇺🇸
Lamont ... you and I are gonna never be ok if your a Hulk fan. Lol.
I didn't mind Hulk until he did what he did to my childhood hero Andre The Giant.
I still can't forgive him.
So nice to see people acknowledge Earthquake.... John Tenta.
Awesome wrestler who stood 6'5" and change and weighed at his WRESTLING height 400 pounds. He wAs a big guy.
The lawsuit between the then WWF now WWE Settles out of court. When Vince and Earthquake agreed he'd stop using Avalanche. And when Earthquake was tired of WCW ... It was Vince who asked if he would come back to wrestle for him.
We miss you John Tenta .... Earthquake.
You were ALOT of fun to watch.
Got to see him live at a WWF houseshow in Germany back in 1992. He was an amazing athlete and those who knew him personally said he was kind, gentle and a great person in general.
SIP EARTHQUAKE Thanks for all the wonderful entertainment you gave us with your talents. Peace out LAMONT
One of my favorite matches with him was when he faced off against Rodney Anoa'i whom was wrestling as Yokozuna. It was a sumo match, and by God it was a hell of a fight. They actually mentioned his time as a sumo wrestler, where he was known as 事天山 / Kototenzan or "Harp of Tenta", and he even came out wearing a kimono and everything. Those two really duked it out before Rodney went out of the ring. John Tenta was a hell of an athlete though, wish I could've met him. Requiescat in Pace and thank you for entertaining us all those years as Earthquake/Kototenzan. Your life story will never be forgotten, you are a legend.
Thank you for visiting him and all the others.
Oh I love him he was one of my favorite wrestlers
Dope we need more wwe edition
Rip John tenta we will miss you 🕊️🕊️🕊️🕊️🕊️🕊️🕊️🕊️🕊️🕊️🕊️
I met him in FL around 1993 he was the nicest guy.
someone said he lived in Lake Mary (nice park of town) outside Orlando
I had a friend of a friend that knew him and John was a pretty good guitar player
Huge, tough man that could do an amazing drop kick...
Loved him back in the day on Super Nintendo wrestling game
He had very large muscular legs to support 450lbs which he moved gracefully
I'm a Big Fan of wrestling this made my day!! 👍
He was a very safe wrestler he tried his best not to hurt the other wrestler.
I remember him in the WWF WrestleFest arcade game.
I remember him because my brother use to make me watch wrestling with him,also from the ice cream bars that I use to love that they don't make anymore. may be rest in peace. Can you do Ronny pipper and anudra the giant next please. I loved anudra in the princess bride. Hope everyone has a good day and is staying safe .
I didn’t realise he was that young when he passed away . He always looked older than he was .
Indeed, I was shocked when I discovered he was only 42 when he passed. Shame, the guy was a legend.
I have to question that my self constantly, why so many wresters dye so early.
@@bakercarl8518 , most of-them die form drug abuse, it’s a shame when you get the few that die from disease or accident.
RIP. Legend.
There is a forgotten "black slave" cemetary in Humble you may be interested in checking out if youre still in the are. About an 1 hour from dickinson
Never heard of this man thanks for talking about him
Hi Lomont, I really do have a neat story for you. No one has done it!! I've been trying to get your attention on this for about 2 months now. I can try to do it, but I know you would do it so much better 🌹
I know Sharaden Hope, the story she has for you is so neat. Talk to her Lamont, it's for real ⚓
Oh, thank you Twila, but I don't think he cares 😔
"Empty Bird Feeder Alert"! Bless you, Lamont....
You are right Lamont, Bladder Cancer not necessarily as common as other cancers, worked as a Theatre Nurse for a while, major surgery involved, minimum 8 hour plus operation to remove bladder and re route urine output to a bag. This was years ago, but I assume in todays world it is still major surgery - as a lot of cancer surgery is.
Thanks so much Lamont
I only knew him as earthquake as a single and with tugboat. But never knew he was born here in canada.
Thank you for another video.
You did a good job, I don't watch wrestling anymore but I still like the team dx, hulk hogan and Michael's
Great video thanks for the story!
Awesome video my friend!! Keep up the great work.
Ty Lamont for this story, interesting..
Good stuff Lamont... Thanks for sharing!!!!
Thank you Lamont for all your videos. I know nothing about wrestling, but you make everything interesting! Be safe!
Hi lamont liked the vlog from Margaret P from England
Thank you Lamont.
Thanks Lamont!
Omg I remember Earthquake and the Oddities! Thank you for the trip down memory lane!
According to Bret hart and Harlem heat. Earthquake was an extremely nice guy. But he's one guy you didn't want to piss off.
A Japanese wrestler once tried to shoot fight Tenta, going for John's eyes. Tenta pulled his shoulder straps down, showed his big balled up fists and said let's go. The guy ran his mouth for a couple of minutes, pretended to want to fight, then he kicked and hurt the referee left the ring, and told the crowd that everythingthey do is fake. None of this was supposed to happen. The Japanese wrestler had a huge ego, ran his mouth behind the scenes about tough he was, and didn't think he should ever have to lose, so he acted out instead. He got fired from the promotion because of actions in that match. John Tenta was so mad he literally turned red when that guy went for his eyes...
He was on the wcw game on super Nintendo lol great wrestler
You always do great I try to never miss ur videos he was a great wrestler and he will be missed rip
That’s a trip. At 50, i’m 6’1 175-183 pounds and i weighed 10 pounds when i was born.
I think it depends on the contract if u could take your name or not but most guys lost their name. He was also that character Akim, lol in WWE. I heard John didn't like being called Earthquake or the Shark
Akeem was a different wrestler. John Tenta was Earthquake. In WCW he was known as Avalanche, the Shark, and his actual name. He also returned to WWF using a mask and was named Golga.
@@GameTime-yj6qv right. I don't know why I thought they were the same person
@@belinda8780 similar body types, similar beard and hair, even some similar facial features, so I can see people mistaken them.
Great video upload enjoyed watching it cheers John tenta earthquake loved watching him got loads of wwf matches with him on r.i.p John tenta
Great video
R.i.p. John Tenta.
May he rest in peace.
Great video buddy.
Nice canal. Suscribed. RIP Tenta.
I love both your channels, I'm hooked. Can you do a video on the wrestling family, the von erichs, from Texas, 6 brothers, 5 died, 3 died from suicide.
i Was just thinking of this guy like 2 days ago wow ty
I didnt know Earthquake was a Tiger!! thanks for this channel
Hello I have done a thumbs up.
I remember him ! Wow flashback lol. Thanks for the stop 😊
Hi Lamont. Good to see you man.
It saddens me to say that I am not familar with anything that has to do with wrestling. But thanks to Lamont, I am learning more about it. RIP John Tenta.
He was a favorite
So very awesome!!!💙💙💙
Hi Lamont. Can you please show more WWF wrestlers Graves. So many of the WWF legends are gone. Would love to see the Graves of Rowdy Roddy Piper, Randy Macho Man Savage, Ravishing Rick Rude, Bobby the Brain Heenan, Classy Freddy Blassie, Eddie Guerrero, Jimmy Superfly Snuka and the Ultimate Warrior. just to name a few.
if you grew up in the early 90s like myself, these characters were so iconic, i remember coming back from school and i would watch this first thing, now growing up most died young, RIP to them all, including Johm Tenta AKA. Earthquake, i remember when he had Jake the Snake tied up in the ropes and took his snake and put it in middle of the ring whilst in the bag and he bounced of ropes and sat on the snake with a jump, thats when jake the snake was in tears, who remmebers that iconic moment?
Aye, the funny thing is, Jake the Snake did confirm that it wasn't a real snake, but rather tons of burger meat stuffed into a tube to look like a snake. But John Tenta pulled off the heel act very convincingly, he was a dude you loved to hate.
@@DesertRainReads oh yes how could I forget lol. That scene was so iconic, it still sticks to my head after all these years. Great entertainment in wwf back then. So much happened and so many died 😞
Earthquake splash was unbeatable
Thumbs up to Lamonte and how great videos he does. This is great on that wrestler!
Thank you for acknowledging, Lamont, I as a grateful fan,am trying to reach new subscribers on his behalf. He truly deserves it.👍
Awesome video. Earthquake was a great wrestler. ☺👍
I remember him well always thought he was a great wrestler..
Rest In Peace John Tenta
John Earthquake Tenta was born and raised in Vancouver bc Canada . I grew up watching him . I guess his kids are from Texas . He teamed up with Typhoon-Tugboat and become the Natural Disasters .
4:14 as a person who has sent to a one day NEPWA camp… Wrestling Rings mats don’t have give. It’s literally ply wood a thin piece of matting and canvas. Everything from the ropes to the mat hurts.
Sharaden Hope is a good honest girl. Please do her story 🐾
Hi Kitty, thanks for the props. Be good ok 🐾
I’m from BC and I met him a couple times at Canada day fireworks at bear creek park
Hello!
I loved Hulk Hogan. I don't remember Earthquake. It must have been after I quit watching. Thank you for doing this one. RIP Earthquake
I remember that day well when earthquake made his wwf debut. I was like 12 without a care in the world. Wwf was everything back then. Not what it is today.
He did make a return at wrestlemania 17 as earthquake in the gimmick battle royale
