When I was 6, him and Lex were in a restaurant eating, and Saturn caught me looking trying not to make a scene. He could tell I was a fan and sent over an autographed napkin. Even waved bye when I left. Never forgot that cause I didn't ask for it. Cool f*ckin guy
James, you do a great job on these interviews. Wanted to give you your due, because you put out consistently interesting content. This is yet another example.
James, you have always had great content but you've struck gold with Perry Saturn. He's very entertaining and frankly many of us are just thrilled to see him well.
Yes, he is! It's been a lil while since I've checked a couple of times a day for the recent uploads of an interview!!! Saturn was always one of my favorite workers. One of my favorite moves to call in a match was the "Moss-Covered-Three-Handled-Family Gradunza"!!!!
If Saturn is willing, it’d be great if he went to the accountability crib with DDP. Dude is still super sharp, and looks like he’s come a long way after some dark times. Would love for him to do that and find out how many fans have been pushing for him.
And a lot of the movies ect, especially ready to rumble🤣 From what DDP said, in ready to rumble when Jimmy looks like he knows what he's doing in the ring, it's Kanyon
“She barely looked human but Scotty did it for the laugh” 😂😂😂 that’s about the funniest description of ugly I’ve ever heard in my life. That’s a Bobby Heenan level insult.
I am glad Perry is okay I'm not worried whether he gets dentures,I see a quality guy.i saw eliminators vs PG13 in my original hometown vs PG13,in Crenshaw,MS,awesome match.
I met Saturn at the bar in the Travel Lodge the night he dropped the elbow from that scaffold onto Terry Gordy. At least I think it was Gordy. Could have been Doc. He was still with Chronus at the time.
The video game has to be wcw/nwo revenge on n64. Not the first wcw game, but the most succesful. Grossed over 125 million dollars in 1998 and it featured kanyon, saturn and over 50 other wcw wrestlers. If not that one. Then wcw mayhem in 99. The first wcw game by ea.
That doesn't mean anything. If they didn't have in their contracts that they would get paid for video games then they wouldn't have got paid anything. I wouldn't be surprised if it was the Mayhem game.
Raven and Saturn were my favorites back then but for different reasons...Raven's mic skills but Saturn's presence and intensity in the ring was next level. All wrestlers are tough but knowing he was a legit Army Ranger just marked me out. I wish they had been presented with better opportunities, they could have been Freebird big.
Please get an interview with Dean Malenko. Another person says he's the funniest guy and we only know him as the most stern unfunny looking guy next to Lance Storm
Perry seems very smart and honest, hope all his demons (we all have or had them) are behind him and he lives a long happy life. Wish he could get hooked up with who helped Scotty Riggs dental, is that through DDP?
Cornette backs up what he said about Kanyon. Said he was always first in line to help out with OVW stuff. Raven's mentioned he's bi-polar, so that might explain why he was acting like that in the ring.
WCW Vs The World came out in the original Sony PlayStation console. I remember I begged my Mom. To allow me to preorder it Me and my brother just had got our first Sony PlayStation for Christmas. Then their rival The Nintendo 64 came out of with WCW vs NWO Revenge. I have a feeling the WCW vs NWO Revenge was the one Perry made all his money on. That game was fucking awesome. Then you got WWF Attitude. Which came out on the PlayStation. WWF No Mercy on the Nintendo 64. Of course WCW Mayhem and the ECW games. Where all on the PlayStation. Good Ole days. I have to admit I've seen screen shots/video of these newer Professional Wrestling games. Blows your mind how far technology has came.
Those n64 wrestling games were amazing. Didnt own a n64 but my neighbour did and he would rent then from blockbuster now and then along with goldeneye and spend hours on them
Wow, I have no idea what it is, but I could listen to Perry's stories all day, between his strange cadence, his punchyness, another brilliant lunatic 😂🔥
@@shaneannigans Rove is his son, that's why he was involved so much in the Aussie shows Went to one in Sydney, on a card with a main event that included Sting and Konnan, Crowbar and Sabu in a midcard hardcore match stole the show
@@SantaPorter420 Really?!?! That I did not know... I tried googling it years ago but couldn't find anything that linked them. Loved the segment and worked foght Rove had with Jeff Jarrett on Rove Live.
2:53 wow man. Truer words have never been spoken. Your description of an addict is so true. Im an addict, but ive been clean for 6 years now. And like you said, you think you got it, and nobody else around you knows, but after a while, you think you can get away with more and more, and eventually, people start to notice. Not only if youre high, even if youre not at that moment. Your mannerisms change, your thought process changes, you get honestly kind of dumber in some cases. You can always tell by your eyes, even sober they can look sunken in, bags around them etc, cheeks can sink in as you lose weight from drugs at least, its bad. Right now i stand at 5'10, 210lbs. At my worst, i weighed 140lbs. I went to my boss, and she got me into detox (though i still got fired), went on methadone for a short period, then later suboxone, then nothing but weed for the last 4 years. its really hard some days, my mental health took a huge hit and never recovered unfortunately, but its better than being on percocet. Congrats on cleaning up, Perry!
Sensitive topic so I'm not sure if you had the gall to ask but I'd love to know if he's been sober lately, how long he's been sober, and how he got sober. If he is sober now, I'm surprised it wasn't DDP who got him there. But he seems clean and coherent here.
God bless Perry Saturn, one of my favorite wrestlers growing up. Me and a buddy of mine were discussing wrestling moves you could use in real life, and I showed him a clip of the Rings of Saturn....he said John I would be so embarrassed if someone done that to me in real life lmao. How many lines have you crossed if you leave the house at 9 am, and somewhere during the course of your day you wind up in that; it's tragic you'd have to move.
loved this.! it was probably wcw vs nwo revenge the game where everyone made at least $100k. no way nitro, mayhem, backstage assault made wcw that much. they were garbage. 😛
@tobysgamingworld1550 I never had a 64, was a hardcore Sony mark at the time. Vs The World stole the look and moves of the 40 global stars , even some of the WCW guys got the same treatment. Muta was named Blood ect.ect
James Taker and the kid with him on pod need pointers ,they talkin bout something but i aint sure .btw i been watching him in person and tv since he was MOP I'm a fan. But not his pod
Wow, you're trying really hard to hate on a guy who is just doing a casual interview. My guess is that he does it intentionally to put the person he is interviewing more at ease. Instead of being dressed in a suit and all stiff. Or perhaps that is just how he dresses in his regular life. Either way, he is doing good interviews, so really no need to nitpick about crap like that.
Dallas is. a great guy, by all accounts, but if I had too work with him he'd drive me nuts calling it in the ring is 99% always better. DDP is a perfectionist too a fault
Jesus , somebody got in a road rage situation and Perry Saturn is the person who answered the call? God I wish there was video of someone diving in to the deep water
No way did he make 100k+ on Revenge. That roster was huge. Either everyone got paid 100k+, or they scaled it so that guys higher on the card than Saturn got more -- and guys lower, got loss. It probably still works out to 100k each. Let's say 50 guys. That's 5 million dollars they paid the wrestlers. No way.
When I was 6, him and Lex were in a restaurant eating, and Saturn caught me looking trying not to make a scene. He could tell I was a fan and sent over an autographed napkin. Even waved bye when I left.

Great to see Perry Saturn! Awesome guy who was very underrated. Hope you're doing well, Perry!!
Perry is a great story teller
Most wrestlers from his generation are. They were all like comic book characters come to life.
If Saturn is willing, it’d be great if he went to the accountability crib with DDP.
Dude is still super sharp, and looks like he’s come a long way after some dark times.
Would love for him to do that and find out how many fans have been pushing for him.
Kimberley Page 😍😍😍
Accurate
40 Year Old Virgin 😏
So hot.
That’s a whole nother level of beauty
Yea one more reason Bischoff is a lucky guy.
By far one of my top enjoyable interviews thus far.
Love Saturn!! Great getting to hear him
Perry Saturn was always one of my favs. His call out to Goldberg is a classic. "I can't sleep at night. I gotta know."
Besides his eliminators run, his WCW match with Raven at bash at the beach 98, still one of my favourites
What do you mean his call out ? What's this about?
@@Former_Employee
Probably his best promo, on Goldberg back in the day
Before WWE made him into a joke
@@SantaPorter420 I didn't know he did a promo on G-Berg
@@Former_EmployeeWCW Saturn was one of the best midcarders Goldberg faced, couple of matches
I'm happy just seeing Perry Saturn again.
Rip Chris Kanyon. It was good to know that he worked on the WCW video games behind the scenes.
And a lot of the movies ect, especially ready to rumble🤣
From what DDP said, in ready to rumble when Jimmy looks like he knows what he's doing in the ring, it's Kanyon
One of the most entertaining wrestlers to watch
Big fan 🫡
He was a freakshow talent. If he were 6 inches taller he would’ve been the biggest star in the world
Really happy to see Perry alive was one of my favourites.
I need The Rings of Saturn Podcast ASAP
Perry is still hanging strong this shows true strength.
Cool to see perry, strong work James.
I wish it was this easy to hear someone while in those convention areas.
“She barely looked human but Scotty did it for the laugh” 😂😂😂 that’s about the funniest description of ugly I’ve ever heard in my life. That’s a Bobby Heenan level insult.
In a waffle house bathroom lmao
It's nice to see Saturn alive and well. He was a solid hand. Should of had a run as WCW U.S. or WWE I.C champion.
He was at the top end of the mid card, should of definately had more of a singles run
More Perry Saturn interviews please!
I loved Saturn in WCW! Don’t know why he never got a real shot in WWE.
He was great but he had some drug problems.
@richevans609 He had that incident with enhancement talent Mike Bell, too.
He beat the shit out of a jobber too😂
And wasn't a super strong promo. Saturn did have some insane offense though. He was suplex city before Brock.
@@zlinedavid yeah I just loved his smash mouth style!
If I could have traveled in a car with any wrestlers it would be Saturn, Raven and Jamie Dundee.
I am glad Perry is okay
I'm not worried whether he gets dentures,I see a quality guy.i saw eliminators vs PG13 in my original hometown vs PG13,in Crenshaw,MS,awesome match.
Eliminators have to be the most underrated tag team ever
These Perry interviews have been great.
I’m so happy Saturn is doing interviews. Loved watching him during his career. His stories are great.
Perry is ace, seems really cool and down to earth and super honest. The universe did him dirty, poor guy
At first I thought he said the APA blew up a church next to a hotel.
He is a great interview!
Great to see Perry doing good.
Perry Saturn IWF USWA ECW and WCW Tag Team Champion
Living legend
Glad to see Saturn doing better, and he is a great interview.

I wouldn't be surprised if it was the Mayhem game.
It wasn't world tour, Saturn wasn't in that one, I think revenge came out before Mayhem so yeah probably revenge
Revenge was insanely good. Set up the template for all the great wrestling games.

Great interview. Perry is one of my favorites. Glad to see he seems to be doing much better.
Can't argue with his pick for funniest guy in the dressing room
wcw thunder from THQ and smackdown 2 he was also in
Did he say bubba Dudley was the smelliest?
Perry was a great interview and tremendous in the ring
Please get an interview with Dean Malenko. Another person says he's the funniest guy and we only know him as the most stern unfunny looking guy next to Lance Storm
Saturn seems like a good dude and saved a woman’s life. I wish I could smoke a joint with him!

Raven had a waffle house waitress in Tennessee in the bathroom that barely looked human. Wow. That's hilarious.
James, I hope Perry Saturn is in your plans going forward.
"all drug addicts sooner or later lose the upper hand" truer words have never been spoken
The fact Perry can say that shows how far he's come. 👊
Please have Perry as a regular guest.
I would love to see you interview Raven.
It's coming. James said he has interviewed him.

It's more likely he's referring to Mayhem. That accounts for the motion capture, the other games did not use mocap
Yeah Wcw vs Nwo revenge was the best wrestling game ever. Interesting Kanyon did all the motion capture.
@@lil_beari remember the Hardy's did the motion capture on wwf attitude and were not even featured in the game
Those n64 wrestling games were amazing. Didnt own a n64 but my neighbour did and he would rent then from blockbuster now and then along with goldeneye and spend hours on them
WrestleMania 2000, still one of the best games ever
Perry was cooking.
Saturn's character on wcw revenge is one of the best on the game
Wow, I have no idea what it is, but I could listen to Perry's stories all day, between his strange cadence, his punchyness, another brilliant lunatic 😂🔥
Is this cut in two; did you just reread interviews lol?
I think it's just heavily edited to take out the lulls. (not the lols)
Barely looked human. Lmfaoo 👋🤣. I spit my drink out. Raven took one for the team 👋
This reminds me of you shoot with sean Oliver

@4:05 he talking about WCW vs The World maybe??? That game stole a TON of I.P.
