      @@chadhampton2176 Butch was tough, for sure, but let the Stieners get to him, ..they would not fuck with Ron, that's saying something..
      think Arn said he was "country strong" no roids, no artificial shit ( you can tell by how good he still looks today, no pimples, still has his size).. Those fuckers with that genetic gift, ( and the proper bone structure to support his frame), are the most dangerous.. not prone to injury, inhumane athleticism. never worked out, and when they did, epic..
      Ron was very under estimated, and probably well feared.. I think Vince probably paid him what Ron said he wanted, even if he didn't get the biggest push.. lol seems like a guy that worked on his own terms, but a total pro that cared about the business to..

    Orndoff didn't actually beat up Tony Atlas. Tony wrestled him to the ground and had him locked into a cradle at which point Paul Orndoff bit into his ear. Tony kept the lock in and Paul calmed down at which point Tony realised his ear was bleeding and ended up going to the hospital later that evening to get it checked out.

    I like the fact that there is a photo of Ron Simmons when discussing legit tough guys, because based on what I've seen in the ring from Ron and the way he violently attacked people from the beginning of his career--I KNOW he has a killer instinct. No wonder Bill Watts liked him so much, he's the kind of guy Mid South was made for, if only he had started there instead of Florida

      Back in 2009 I actually got to hangout with Flair for an entire evening. A company that my buddy worked for at the time actually rented Flair out for an evening lol
      My buddy was able to bring me, there was about 10-12 of us. I actually got to have dinner with him and had good 1hr conversation about wrestling with him! One of the coolest moments of my life. Then we all went to this club and got bottle service for the night. Got drunk with Flair and had such a good time. His manager was there with him so he kind of kept Flair in check that night. I'll never forget walking into the club and Flair goes right up to these 3 smoking ladies in line. Grabs all 3 and says "Ladies!.....you're comin with me....woooo" hahaha what a night!

      Vader is the only one who disputed the story. Everyone who was actually there said that Paul won that fight. There's no one that vouches for Vader winning except for Vader himself. The most consistent trait is that Paul won while wearing slippers and that's from people who were there. The others that arrived during the aftermath saw Vader on the floor and saw Paul walk out - including Ric Flair. Vader lost that day.

    If you're 230 plus pounds and you know how to punch then you can drop anyone. Orndorff was listed at 6'0 250. Probably exaggerated but still. If he was 5'10, 230 and knew how to fight then you'd never fuck with that dude unless you knew how to handle yourself.

      The weights these wrestlers were listed at--that's one thing about the business I always knew was fake! I remember seeing scrawny little Ricky Morton listed at 220-HAHAHAHA! No way in the world he couldn't have been a french fry over 170 at his heaviest!

      @@impalaman9707 Come on dude. I'm 5'11 and about 180. And I'm just a regular looking guy. If anything I'm a bit of a rail. No way was Orndorff 170. Take a look at the guy standing next to Hulk Hogan who was an absolute monster of a man when they were feuding. and if you cant get a sense of scale for Hogan then watch him on any talk show in the 80's being interviewed by a regular guy.

    Wake up Stonecold, Dirty Dick Slater was a huge star in the NWA, WCW, Mid South, and Japan. He was an NWA and WCW World Tag. He was also an NWA US and Mid South North American champ and many other titles. He did the NWA World Fake champ angle with Ric. Dick was a big star.

    As a kid we thought the heels were all pussies haha, so many of the heels back in the day were some of wrestling's real hardmen, Rude was an animal, Harley Race looked like your old grandad but he'd probably kill someone with a punch. Haku looked tough but chubby...alas we all know what haku was like. I would pick Andre the giant in his prime as unbeatable in a real situation, even in late 80's when he was so slow he still lifted piper by his T_ shirt with one hand and placed him on the table on the piper's pit.
