This is from Title Match Network's exclusive new series with the legendary Greg Valentine.
Hammer talks about working with the legendary British Bulldogs, well before they ever feuded in Vince McMahon's World Wrestling Federation.
Greg says Dynamite Kid was a legit superstar in Japan. The two would cross paths for years to come as the Dream Team (Greg Valentine & Brutus Beefcake) and the British Bulldogs produced one of the most historic WWF tag team rivalries of all time.

Now THIS guy is from my time watching wrestling. Greg The Hammer Valentine, still looks like a rock star. He had the Figure Four Leglock that killed!
That Jesse Ventura impression was on point
Hammer is always such a gentleman..he never bad mouths the boys..a super nice man and a legend 👏
You haven't watched enough of his interviews lol.
I remember the British Bulldog match... I was 11 years-old and woke my Dad up with my crying.... lol - I LOVED Saturday Night's Main Event - Great Times :)
I didn't grow up watching the british bulldogs I didn't grow up watching 80s wrestling i did look up the british bulldogs on TH-cam and watch there tag team matches they where a good tag team
My friends and I lived for Saturday Nights Main Event every 6 weeks. We took turns sleeping over at each other’s house for it.
Hate Tony Khan all you want but he's brining wrestling back to Saturday nights! AEW matches are like a car wreck & I love & respect it.
Dynamite Kid was definitely my favorite. Greg is so honest & true to the business, I think it would be good to just bingewatch for hours. He's good storyteller...
Hammer is right 80s wrestling was the best
He was right about 60s music too 🕺👍⚡💪
@@ThouSwell-zx3fdwhat did he say about 60s music ?
Wrestlemania 2, when The Bulldogs beat Valentine & Beefcake for the titles was one of my favorite childhood memories of WWF
That Era was excellent for tag teams. Not only were The Bulldogs and The Dream Team selling out up north, the Midnight Express and The Rock 'N Roll Express were on top down south. All were drawing huge business.
This guy was the real deal! Love watching him work.
His Jesse impression was awesome
I loved wrestling in the 80s as I mainly watched NWA on Saturday mornings. It was much better then it is today.
The Hammer is a national treasure
I agree that wrestling in the 80’s was the best.
I saw the British Bulldogs come to my gym in South San Francisco in 1986 I witnessed DK bench press 455 for 6 effortless reps it was astonishing
Bulldogs were unreal in 1985.
Dream team Bulldogs was a great feud.
This is history being written. Thankyou Greg. Amazing.
Great stuff as usual. The Hammer can tell a story.
That overcoat is pimp as hell
Dynamite snap suplex was a huge move back then.We always was waiting to see that.
Pro wrestling was better than "sports entertainment" will ever be.
Slow it down. Think about what you're doing and tell a story. Exactly!
I feel like Bret Hart is Dynamite KiD 2.0. The intensity and the execution of the moves seen in highlights reminds me of Bret and he is the best. Dynamite Kid is in Bret's Mount Rushmore and the way he talks about Dynamite Kid anytime is 101% respect.
He is right. Just look at Impact. Having 110 pound Tessa Blanchard beating Mad dog Fulton. Sad thing about it is that people actually believed that she could really beat him.
When Greg says "I don't watch it" regarding today's wrestling I really feel it.
I just watch the chicks wrestle.
Awesome thanks
if Dynamite was still alive, he would be heading to Hammer’s place right now to fight him for calling him “the small one”….
You never even knew him.
I can remember watching, somehow, on my grandmother's TV in Alfred North Dakota when I was in elementary school...not this match, but wrestling back then. My dad took his mom to an event in Bismarck and she was so into it and believed everything was real. Good times and memories. Expect for the outhouse in Alfred North Dakota. LOL
I use to watch this guy all the time as a kid. I loved his selling. He'd do that fall on to his face and it was trademark Greg Valentine.
I just went and watched that match with the bulldogs on snme. It is on wwe TH-cam page. Has been for 10 years. Awesome and also highlights the crime of today's wrestling and what we are robbed of as former fans
Facts it was main event with these tag team icons & without a heavyweight match to follow
No, just the last match on the card. Hogan was in the main event. The main tag team program was usually on his cards.
" Believable".... You said it.
I was lucky and followed Greg and Titos fued i been a wrestling fan since 1979
Back in the day people were wrestlers and they believed wrestling was as far as they would go. Today people use wrestling as a way to get noticed and maybe develop an acting career or something else. Wrestling is not their primary concern, and the Industry suffers for it.
I don't think that's true at all. You can count wrestlers who have successfully transitioned to other media, especially film, on one hand.
Valentine has always been a consummate professional; sold well, seemed great to work with, and never really badmouths anyone. I agree with him that the 80s were the best.
I remember watching that match live on Saturday night main event… was awesome! I always wanted to see Dynamite go solo and beat Hogan
The 80s absolutely Were THEE BEST Era of Wrestling.
Greg Valentine was a superb worker!
The only reason I watched wwf from late 80s into 90s was because of the tag team wrestling.
the rock and roll express could sell out an arena also
There's only ONE Hammer--Greg Valentine!!!
Wrestling sucks these days, the 80’s into the early 90’s were the best.
Mr Greg valentine idk if you see these comments or not but i will tell you this every time you dropped an elbow on someone i felt it threw the TV but also i love your honesty about how wrestling was and how it is today I don't watch wrestling anymore bc it's a soap opera all i no is that all you wrestlers in the 80s and the 90s were real genuine true wrestlers ok my Dear friend and if my name does not show upon the comment thing my name is Leif skjoldal ok Mr Greg valentine have a good nite and who ever else read this comment
Dynamite Kid is my Fav wrestler of all Time. It's ashame so many of them didn't get paid the way they suppose to. Vince took lots of wrestlers money..Main Eventers Dying broke. A damn shame.
Some heel advice from a Legend
Who was Hammers tag partner during the time he's speaking about in the video when he was selling out shows wrestling the British Bulldogs? Around the era of Mania II and Saturday Night Mainevent, which was like 1986? Was his tag partner Paul Orndorff, or was Greg apart of the Dream Team w/ Brutus Beefcake at that point?
Great question. Greg was part of the Dream Team with Brutus Beefcake around that time. They had many sellouts vs the Bulldogs on SNME, WM2, The Big Event and house shows.
Braking kayfabe in the attitude era ruined wrestling in the longterm
80's were the best. Today's wrastling is lame
The brand wwf could sell out throughout the 80s but to be fair we didn’t even know who would be wrestling for sure, vince was clever not to advertise those card to thoroughly as so people would pay for a ticket without knowing who wouldn’t be there.
They hardly ever sold out. It wasn't as big as the media claimed.
you guys didn't need to do a 720 degree somersault, you were able to sell. This modern WWE is basically Ringling Brothers in a square instead of a circle
FTR, Grizzled Young Vets, small handful of tag teams that might possibly hold a candle to the British Bulldogs.
Him n piper should have been a tag team..they both refused to lose more than any 2 ppl i know lol
He’s the only person who’s ever said nice things about George Scott. I like Jim Cornette but we’re in danger of having his opinions becoming viewed as absolute gospel instead of his opinion or perspective.
Yeah, well, Dusty Rhodes trashed him too. It wasn't just Cornette
And Cornette explained fully what the issues were with Scott. He just let the guys do what they wanted in their programs and just oversaw it. That's why most of the guys who worked for him liked him. At best, he was lazy and at his worst was incompetent.
❤
The Hammer was awesome, grew up watching him!
Before the bulldogs there wasn't much in the uk just old fat guys with the exception of pat roach and mr steele..❤
Its rare I hear a wrestler of the 80s and 90s say he loves Hulk Hogan.
Greg is one of the few not fueled by jealousy and bitterness.
Well, people may have not liked Hulk personally, but The smart ones who understand the money part of it should have loved Hulk Hogan for their careers. Hogan more than anyone earned and let these guys make the money they were making in the 80's and 90's just by being on the same shows as him.
Great hair.
None of the new guys or the IWC Darlings understand wrestling psychology, they're all too obsessed with trying to emulate HBK and his superkick, effectively killing that moves impact, and without any of Michaels' in-ring psychology. What made me laugh was that I once watched Montez Ford get his eyes raked by the heel, instead of selling right away, he makes a stupid looking face at the cameraman, giving the dumbest delayed reaction of about five seconds and begins selling his mouth...as if the heel raked his lips, when it was blatantly clear that his eyes were raked. "The Future Shawn Michaels" my A$$!
Today's wrestling is so lame not worth my time watching. 80s were the best of times, rather watch old school on you tube thank goodness
even big Andre was wary of dynamite and his sadistic mind haha
In simplest terms, kayfabe is dead. 😞
Sunny looks bad
Lol
He was a little petty man. Karma at work.
?
I think he's referring to Dynamite. And he's not wrong.
What does Greg valentine mean Daymited kid wasn't crazy personally is he for real is he for real right now daymited kid pulled a gun on his wife in front of his children daymited kid was crazy as af like daymited kid good wrestler but as a person he just seem like he was a douchebag like fr
Greg is so cool. He still has awesome hair and jacket. LOVE ❤️ this man
Bulldogs were amazing!! They deserved more from WWF but Dynamites bad attitude messed that all up.
1982. . My first athlete autograph was Greg. Providence RI gas station, my dad brought me and sister to Greg. He was a HOT 🔥 lady pumping gas , even as heal he was so cool and signed his autograph for me and my little sister. We were fans of the hammer 🔨 for life aftet
