@@camionerosfurgoneros5915 I mean he never did any shoot interviews outside of the rare wrestling interviews he does here & there...I guess thats why the story never came up.
He was basically the early prototype of what the Stone Cold character would've been if you think about it. I don't think Steve Austin copied him, but Bad News Brown and Shultz were kinda like early versions of the character.
More reasonable would be Hogan vs Pee Wee Herman. Hogan was known for a very lot of things but being a real tough guy you didn’t want to mess with. Strangely I never seen or heard his name mentioned once.
Dr. D had too much heat with Hogan. His promos on Hogan are legendary. There is genuine animosity. He gave Hogan all he could handle in the ring too. I never knew Dr. D came up with the idea for Wrestlemania but its too bad he wasnt in it. I guess slapping Stossel and Mr. T. would get nearly wrestler fired. With the exception of Hogan. Ask Belzer.
Honky Tonk is so right about the valet thing. Look how much Sable took Marc Mero’s character away with he beauty. Kimberly did the same with Ed Leslie.
Lawler buried Wayne HARD!! Dave Shultz in Stampede Wrestling: Priceless! He drew heat everywhere he went! Those early 80's WWF Promos and vignettes are 📺 GOLD!
In life - ideas are just that. If you have a good one: patent it, trademark it. THEN LET THEM STEAL IT. Don’t ever make the mistake of thinking that those who have control and money won’t exploit it.
Ive always looked at stuff like that in the context of everything is borrowed, just as long as you put your own elements in and make them you're own, it's not really stealing. It happens all the time in every entertainment form, let alone just in wrestling. I think Jim Cornette said it best "When you steal from one person it's plagiarism, when you steal from everyone it's inspiration."
Schultz should have considerd being blackballed a blessing. Lets face it, the man was a bully. It's not that far fetched to to think that someone would have sooner or later done him like Bruiser Brody.
What Honky is neglecting to mention is that Hogan recommended him for the I.C. run. It was supposed to go to Butch Reed, but Hogan pushed for Honky. He’s been living off that I.C. run since.
@@wizzerwiser2056 That’s always been the reason given but Reed until the day he died always denied it. When Honky beat Steamboat, Butch was in the heel’s dressing room celebrating with Honky.
I always feel if truth was know about that gimmick I think Jerry Lawyer was King of Memphis long before old cousin Wayne Farris even became a Wrestler. Now Jerry didn’t take it full Elvis style probably he was scared to get sued & would really need a real professional Lawyer. But his side kick that short guy did dress like Elvis I done forgot his name but I think he only worked in that territory he never made it outside of that area. So I suspect Wayne stole that gimmick from old cousin Jerry after they had a falling out to start with.
@@adamirishconundrum851Warrior sucked. I saw him wrestle at the San Diego sports aroma around 1988. His basic ring skills were horribly lacking. He could not simultaneously strike and stomp the mat so his punches were silent. His entrance was his only move.
I find this story extremly.easy to believe that Hulk Hogan stole from Austin Idol & took credit for naming WrestleMania when it was Doctor D David Schulzs idea that is just typical hypocritical backstabbing Terry Bollea 😒👎
What the hell are you talking about??? Hulk Hogan has mentioned Austin Idol a few times whenever he mentions how he put his character together,the cupping of the ear and other things. Wayne here is a sour prick,kinda like Beefcake but less,ungrateful men,Schultz killed his own career,he was an angry red neck,ppl did not like him,he couldn t work bc he thought wrestling was real,he was behind the times,and wherever he showed drew less ppl than shite drew flies.
He was downtown trying to find a woooman. "You know what I found? I found a lot of men that looked like women. What's wrong with you Gene???!!!!!!" 😂😂😂
He is saying that Mr. T was brought in for WrestleMania due to his popularity on The A-Team. The A-Team started in 1983 and WrestleMania 1 was in 1985.
@ChargerBullet he said that they were riding with Hogan and they came up with the idea to bring in Mr t for an angle. Nobody knew Mr t yet at the time he's talking about around 80-81 when they would have been riding together.
@@givem110 Oh, I missed that part where he said 1980 to 1981. Although, looking at the timeline they all (David Schultz, Honky Tonk, and Hogan) were in the AWA in 1983. Maybe that is when those talks happened.
David schultz DR D was a real life bad ass i can see why they was scared of him hes a little bit nuckinfuts the man was a bounty hunter after wrestling i wouldnt wanna mess with him either
Whats there to be jealous of? The Hickster got taken to the cleaners by Linda Hogan, and is considered the laughing stock of wrassling, Brotherrrrr Linda Hogans Grandma knows whats up 😭😭😭😂😂😂🍼🍼🧂🧂🧂🧂
Hogan was the Biggest Name wrestling Ever produced. Of course people will be jealous of him. Especially a moron like Dr.D who goes around hitting and threatening people 🙄
Wrestlemaina was actually a copy of the nwa last tangle in Tampa in 1980 at Tampa Stadium Dusty Rhodes vs Harley Race that was the first of its kind and Vince saw it and copied it
This is what I'm saying. I hated HTM and Double J. They were both over as heels. Honkey is bitter AF. He also seems to LOVE the rumor and innuendo. Gotta be 100 videos around with him gossiping 😂
My goodness, it takes MORE than an idea, even if Honky Tonk is telling the truth. You have to have MONEY to make it work and there was significant risk involved. What if Wrestlemania had failed? Mainstream media didn't even recognize wrestling as a sport, as entertainment, as anything they would even pay any attention to. Dr. D, Schultz even Honky Tonk was not the star either Orndorff or Piper was back then. This idea had to draw the fans, the pay per view buys, Vince McMahon Jr. put up his OWN money. Not calling anyone a liar but anyone can say or claim anything was their own idea. Was this idea copyrighted? Schultz I suppose wanted to be a part of the payoffs but not the extraordinary investment risk this was. Sorry, Honky Tonk is the first one I ever knew or heard that said Wrestlemania was this Schultz guys idea. An idea is thrown around by somebody supposedly and Vince McMahon Jr. comes up with the money. Just doesn't sound right to me. Say what you want about Hogan, if Schultz or even Honky could have drawn that kind of money they would have been featured above or instead of Hulk Hogan. Mr. T Drew because of his acting gig, Rocky 3. Even Piper and Orndorff outdrew these these two.

@@camionerosfurgoneros5915 hogan could have said that to get dave off his back too. finke has said in interviews that he told vince to change the name because "the colossal tussle" would sell as well as a fart in church at christmas mass.
Ive seen the Hucksters matches in Japan. He was still sloppy and uncoordinated in his Japan matches You need to accept the reality that Hogan was a HORRIBLE worker, even in Japan, Brotherrrrrrr 😂😂😂😭😭😭🍼🍼🍼🧂🧂🧂🧂
This may be the most redicolous comment of the day, he was better then hogan???? Lol pretty sure from 85 to 98 there wasn't anyone in the buisness better then hogan! The guy got 1 million dollar pay offs from houses drawn on his back
I doubt that McMahon told Schultz to slap John Stossel. That's Schultz's story. His behavior before before and after the incident, shows that he was a violent person and a liar.

Schultz said that McMahon had endorsed the idea of slapping Stossel and when the heat started McMahon denied it and would not defend Shultz.
Hulk confirmed the story on the austin pod, that dr.d was the one who came up with the main event tag match idea for the first wrestlemania
Yeah but
35 plus years later
@@camionerosfurgoneros5915 I mean he never did any shoot interviews outside of the rare wrestling interviews he does here & there...I guess thats why the story never came up.
Honky is full of schitt & he's the one blaming erbody else & sniveling..
I saw an interview with Hogan where he admitted he stole everything.
Now he wast to look like a nice person
I always heard Howard Finkel came up with the name Wrestlemania. But I would not be surprised if what HTM says here is true.
I loved the "shake,rattle,n roll!!!
Schultz was entertaining as a wrestler and a true real life badass.
Last I heard David was a bounty hunter now.
He was basically the early prototype of what the Stone Cold character would've been if you think about it. I don't think Steve Austin copied him, but Bad News Brown and Shultz were kinda like early versions of the character.
he had a bad a mouth only
Oh.....he was definitely a bad ass even Hogan said backstage no one messes with Schultz
Honky shoot interviews are great
I've thought Jeff Jarrett is ridiculous. He's basically been in Every promotion.
Closet match with Hogan vs. Stone Cold was Hogan vs. David Shultz.
More reasonable would be Hogan vs Pee Wee Herman. Hogan was known for a very lot of things but being a real tough guy you didn’t want to mess with. Strangely I never seen or heard his name mentioned once.

This guy has Wrestling DNA in his blood a true legend of the business of the wwf
The Dr. Death gimmick was also done by Steve Williams but I don't know if he used it in Japan or if it was a dig at David Shultz.
Yeah I actually think of Steve not David when I hear Dr death for some reason lol. Then they tried to make him box....
HTM straight up tells it how it was. No bs about him, and is highly respected by many.
All he does is lie.
Dr D and Honky Tonk are classic, HOF wrestlers. F Hogan.
Dr D blew hogan away in everything!!

Schultz was a solid heel. Great psychology.
Honky tonk man is one of my all time favorites..he cool he cocky he bad he ah honky tonk man
Schultz wasn’t a main eventer in WWF. Only people who hate hogan are ones that didn’t get to work with Hogan.
They were happy getting paid...Plenty of people did not like Hogan..
Randy Savage and Warrior in Heaven say youre lying

@@idlehands1864Too bad reality vehemently disagrees with you, Brotherrrrrr
😂😂😂😭😭😭🍼🍼🍼🧂🧂🧂
that's a lie Hogan is a backstabber
Eric Bishoff showed he could actually play the guitar.
I think Shultz could easily take Orndorfs place in Wrestlemania and the match would probably been better.
That's a tough call. Orndorrff was a pretty awesome heel too.
I heard that Shultz was supposed to face off against Tito Santana who ended up wrestling The Executioner who was a late replacement.
Honky has just become way too bitter for me

Everyone was a B player when Hogan, Warrior and Savage were around.

Idk he had A+ plus heat as a heel. As a kid I hated him so much.

Vince the man that stole ECW extreme style calls it hardcore and buy all ECW top guys HTM is very believable
Schultz was tough and Hogan was scared.
I just can't believe any wrestler. So many different versions of the same stories.
I'm surprised HTM is talking about Hogan in A bad way because Hogan is the only reason why HTM became IC Champion.
He hated Hogan because he didn't help him find a Womaannnnn! He hooked him up with men that looked like women in San Francisco
He was downtown trying to find a woooman.
"You know what I found? I found a lot of men that looked like women. What's wrong with you Gene???!!!!!!" 😂😂😂
No wonder it took so long for HTM to get in the HOF
The a team debut was in 1983 so the Mr t stuff he's saying is a lie for sure. Hogan filmed a movie with Mr t in late 81 with an unknown mr t.
He is saying that Mr. T was brought in for WrestleMania due to his popularity on The A-Team. The A-Team started in 1983 and WrestleMania 1 was in 1985.

Honky was seriously bald in 2000. In 2024 he has more hair than he did then !
Honky Tonk man stole every Elvis impersanator's Gimmick from Las Vegas 🤔🧐
I wanted a wooman!
But he was in San Francisco he couldn't find one
Everyone was jealous of Hogan! Any wrestler in his position wouldn’t pass up creative control
David Schultz looked like the guy in the Camel cigarette commercial.
Shultz couldn’t draw a nickel if you gave him a pen and a pad.
I disagree. That dude could draw heat like crazy. But we all have our own opinions.
David Schultz did not take part in any Wrestlemania.
David schultz DR D was a real life bad ass i can see why they was scared of him hes a little bit nuckinfuts the man was a bounty hunter after wrestling i wouldnt wanna mess with him either
Jarret was world heavyweight champion in two different promotions htm never saw anything but ic champ once

Bullshit on the Wrestlemania creation, that term was coined by the late Howard Finkel.
No it wasn't. Several wrestlers in the past interviews had said it was Schultz who had come up with the WrestleMania idea.

Hogan was scared shitless of him.
