Tony Atlas is a real deal great guy... no b.s or drama
Andre had 64 teeth? Nope. See the Andre' documentary . .. Vince admits it is a work.
An he looks great he didn't shrink like alot of guys do. I miss my bicep s
"They know they're short,they don't need you to tell them"
Good solid bit of advice for dealing with really small or really big people.
Please keep Tony coming! Hes honest and very genuine unlike any speaker I've ever seen.
Hes truly an amazing mind and voice for the world and history of wrestling.
His knowledge is very commendable and his stories have me in awe.
I like how he breaks down the economics
Tony Atlas the realest! Success came so fast and went down too soon! How real real is that? Thats life😎
I was from the era and a fan 70 I remenber Bruno Sarmatino , Tony Atla ,Andre Giant, Iron Sheik Rick Flair my favorite wrestles. 1972 from Boston T.V. every Saturday
My favorite part of this was the "once you go black" part. It was honest, truthful, and hilarious at the same time.
Several episodes with Tony on this season's "Memories & Legends" are online, too. Glad you enjoyed this one so much.
That is fascinating and makes you think. Who'd knew we'd get a biology lesson from Mr. USA! George Jefferson was a descendant of Thomas Jefferson?!
NightWarriorAlive it’s in the history book
Great guy i saw him nice
36:45 - "Fabulous Moolah was a pioneer in wrestling and if it wasn't for her there wouldn't be women's wrestling today."
I saw Tony wrestle in the Spectrum in like 83 or 84.
I love this interview! Thanks and I just subscribed
Love Tony Atlas
I love this guy
79'-84' wrestling fan. Best house shows at the Boston Garden. I remember sitting in the nose bleed seats and thinking to myself as you came out to face Ernnie Ladd the magazines didn't even come close to portraying the massive size and definition that I was seeing in person.
Appreciate your comments, Norm.
I got a chance to meet Greg Valentine in Junction City, KS back in 03.
Tony: "Mae Young was tough." She had to be if she took a Bubba bomb from the top rope at 176 years old."
Ha ha, was she that old?! Ha!
She was actually 77 years old when bubba dudley used the bubba bomb on her in 2000.
Hell yeah I seen that live back when it happened and I was like no fucking way
ur car go in the shop the next day.....LMFAO....Atlas is a legend
I think wrestling should go back to the territorial days!
Andrae Coleman are you from Tampa Florida?
@@twright3802 I'm from Liberal, KS but I live in Fort Worth, TX
@@andraethegiant1987 sadly it will never ever come back, it's bygone era.
I feel the same way it was so much better then
13:47
"One percent of a penny." 🤣🤣🤣
You are a credit to your race you are a very intelligent man I am impressed!
Undertaker isn't in Andres league. My grandma knows who Andre was, so does your grandpa. The same can't be said about taker.
JaronZ facts
And 20 years for now, people will still know who Andre The Giant is; same thing with Hogan. Their legends will live on.
My grandparents got me into the undertaker although they were bigger fans of Andre.
JaronZ i agree ppl who dont like wrestling know who andre the giant was.
For those who say undertaker isnt in andres league: well no fucking shit, and your grandpa doesn't know who taker is? That sounds like bullshit. Dont try to disrespect the legend, hes been around nearly 30 years in the WWE/F, been in the wrestling business damn near 35 or 36 years. You cant say no one is gonna know who undertaker is 20 years, because he's done so much for the company in his time, hes a legend.
Tony ain't lien about Andre, when I was a child I shook his hand and I wasn't afraid of him though he was colossal(his hands were huge). I was terrified of Abdullah the Butcher and Mr. Wrestling#2.
Damn pro wrestling was awesome back in the 70s 80s with the ring rats!
An no steroid tests
Most ring rats were ugly asf and underage.
Awesome upload!!!
We'll be back after Tony's live lunch break 🍽
"A Giant Drawft" 😂😂😂
I've been laughing out loud for about ten minutes after reading this.
@@bostonwrestlingcom 😂😂😂
Yoooooo I don't know how you kept a straight face when Tony be talking. He country AF but I have nothing but respect for him
There's several of these gems in these interviews. You just gotta listen for them. My favorite one is when he tries to say VENTRILOQUIST.
I see Tony Atlas shoots, and I cleek.
You could hear a rat piss on coton.. I'm keeping this omg lol great video
I wish someone would ask Tony Atlas about the match with Superstar Billy Graham that became the actual open footage to the early Georgia Championship Wrestling intro. . where he is giving Superstar Billy Graham the Thes press punches. . . what happened that night??? I was back in the late 70s.
Will try to include that in an upcoming episode where Billy Graham will be a topic of conversation, thanks.
Thanks. . He was really hitting him. . . i remember as a little kid watching that actual footage with Gordon Solie before it became the footage intro to the show. Superstar Graham looked like he was knocked out on his back in the ring and Tony was sitting on top of him and i mean he was really hitting him hard. The ring bounced as he was hitting him and he headbutted him after the punches so hard the ring ropes bounced!! He truly seemed like he was mad at SBG!. Tony was my childhood wrestling hero back then!! Not because of this but because he just was!!
I believe our SummerSlam weekend "Memories & Legends" special will include Graham and some other top stars of the era in the discussion.
Here is some info i found on the web about interactions with Superstar Billy Graham.
January 13, 1978Atlanta, GA
Tony Atlas defeated WWWF World Champion Superstar Billy Graham in a physique contest
March 3, 1978Atlanta, GA
Tony Atlas beat Superstar Billy Graham
March 24, 1978Atlanta, GA
Tony Atlas beat Superstar Billy Graham by CO
April 7, 1978Atlanta, GA
Tony Atlas beat Superstar Billy Graham
@@MrRonsaxton yepp Billy Jack was huge too
Love your video just subscribed love Tony atlas and his stories and that he is a new englander has he ever come to Salem Mass would like to meet him someday seems like he's a great guy would like to take him out fishing or hunting if he's into any of that. Hi from Salem louie
He'll be back Friday, March 1st in Melrose with free admission if you'd like to join us.
I'm with Tony with regards to moolah. It's easy to attack those who have passed away, and are unable to defend themselves. There are two sides to every story.
Tony Atlas great interview
Has Tony ever talked about Abraham Washington ? Would like to hear his thoughts about him they worked together briefly on ECW and then Abraham got fired for his move reference on raw was let go he’s gone through a total transformation now on the indies he’s jacked looks completely different
We'll be doing a complete Memories & Legends episode on his 2008-2010 run - I know it's on the production sheet, not sure what WWE PPV weekend it will launch.
He does in his book and his time in WWE-ECW.
Wow savio vega speaks great english now
this is good stuff here.
No one can compare Andre the Giant to any of the other "commodities" in the business because unlike them, he actually drew money and people from all generations knew and respected him. The Undertaker didn't become as "respected" as he is up until he went back to the "Deadman" gimmick in 2004 and by then people argued he should've retired then.
Andre was the complete opposite... As soon as it became apparent Andre would no longer be a major star attraction or attend a live event due to his health, Vince Jr. was already missing his biggest attraction opposite of Hogan and tried his best to replicate Andre with the likes of Earthquake, Undertaker, Giant Gonzales, even Sid but it came to no avail. Andre was simply naturally gifted and cursed with his body and it made the business so much money but it came at a huge price -- his life.
This the Tony show
how much money does Tony get to make these videos?
Andre had 64 teefs? Damn!
The latest Tony Atlas Quote of the Day from these videos haha! Thanks for watching.
@@bostonwrestlingcom
Hahaha!! Thanks for the hard work, my friend. I could listen to Tony for hours!
We'll have four brand new, full length episodes through Survivor Series / TakeOver weekend, and hopeful to create some bonus content for you guys when Tony returns to the studio October 19th.
Everyone looks like a toy next to Andre.
Not Ernie Ladd watch that match
Lol 64 teefs no way
Royalty check 1% on a penny.. yeesh!!
What color you get with green and white again?
How much it take for hotels and food
jyd- head butt @35.00
Tony is the average southern uncle; authentic, down to earth, inarticulate, but definitely not a fool. He played the dummy to survive during those racial 80’s. Legend.
I sorta disagree with Tony as far as him saying it's not wrestling anymore just entertainment because there's quite of few wrestlers that can really wrestle with tons of moves that they showcase and things of that nature...
Murphy Jones it’s all predetermined but Brett hart was good.
That’s the point ..they’re are not the main focus
Ernie Ladd never looked like a toy next to Andre watch that match
Andre was a true giant and a world famous personality. 6 Million Dollar Man, Conan, Princess Bride, etc. Undertaker was a tall guy who was never the top guy in wrestling and never a world famous personality. It's stupid to try and compare the two of them.
Appreciate your comments, Hand.
Mid south was cool at age 10
I didn't know Andre the Giant was built like a giant droff.
64 teefs
Thanks for clearing up the situation with Mark Henry. McMahon takes a great wrestler and makes a complete ass out of them. Please bring wrestling back and stop giving these athletes these ridiculous roles to play. The
Tony’s right but it ain’t Vince’s fauteuils for inflation
Undertaker - "special attraction? I think not....awesome worker and draw - no doubt
A tremendous (even underrated) worker. Never an exceptional draw on his own. Was at his best and had most value on short spurts followed by a hiatus. Didn't need to be on TV every week, didn't need a title. Just like Andre, two of the most enduring characters in professional wrestling history, two truly special attractions.
No women's b rasslin ta day
There's no confirmation on that 64-teeth claim. Seems unlikely.
Highly unlikely!
The documentary HBO did on Andre talks about the "rows of teeth" Andre may have had. Ric Flair mentioned how he believed that story and would look up trying to find the teeth.
@@bostonwrestlingcom Yeah - it just seemed that way because his teeth were so small - like a dolphin
What about Japanese women wrestling its light years ahead of American women wrestling. Moolah had a monopoly on women wrestling
The big show now he wasnt has a big star has andre the giant
Very true, Terri, Big Show is a big star, but not the icon that Andre is.
i always had the hots for moolah
I couldn’t understand dorf
supertroll dwarf.
He never got fixed Big show would look just like him
Big Show might not have been as well put together as Andre, it might have deformed him more. Big Show got treated really early, and you can still see that his proportions are a bit off. Andre stayed very well proportioned into his early 20s, before you could really see some of the noticeable deformation of his skeletal structure. It may have put Big Show on crutches and messed him up alot earlier than Andre. Andre could have probably even lived past his 50s with the disease if he tried to take care of his body to even a small degree, instead of eating bad, never exercising and constantly drinking. Looking at Big Show, I doubt he'd have made it to Andre's 46 yrs with the disease, even with taking care of himself.
