I loved the banter between Jesse and Gorilla Monsoon. I can even remember as a child watching Jesse and his tag team partner Adrian Adonis as the East//West connection.
Jesse Ventura was so much better than the current WWE commentary. I hate how JBL, the heel announcer, doesn't act like a heel when John Cena goes out to the ring.
In my opinion Jesse is the second greatest heel commentator of all time. Bobby Heenan definitely was number one. But both of them were great when paired with Gorilla Monsoon.
Jesse Ventura is an extremely intelligent individual. A lot of what he shares his experiences & thoughts on make tremendous sense!! Despite what a lot of people say(& the majority for the record, I do completely agree with)it takes a vast amount of intelligence & an hard-interior to be a political figure(or remain one for that matter lol), but the dedicated ones understand most of every detail that goes into that "Arena" & Jesse Ventura understood it or understands it as far i'm concern lol. I for one, thoroughly enjoy his interviews, his thoughts on certain subjective issues, topics of debate among a variety of his experiences throughout his widely- illustrious career!! He's a inquisitively smart man, straight to the point & has the proof to back it, plus he's great for sound-bites aswell!! A Remarkable Mind!!!
Jesse is without a doubt, my favorite commentator in the history of pro wrestling. No doubt. But as much as he had fun reliving these stories, you heard him "Hey, get back to my book!" lol He's definitely focused on business here, but I'm glad to hear him light up as he tells these wrestling stories.
Excelente entrevista y genial escuchar a Jesse. Excelent interview and it´s a pleasure to listen Mr. Jesse Ventura. I live in Lima, Perú, and I want to thank you for post this.
When Heenan and Lawler defended a heel, their arguments were so over-the-top and desperately illogical, they came across as heels themselves.. But when Ventura did it, he made great points and spoke with absolute confidence about how the heels were just smart guys who work the system to win, like any rational person would. And when he'd point out the double-standard when a face played dirty, McMahon and Monsoon would just change the subject. Same guy he later was on the "news" circuit.
First the WWE has to induct Macho Man Randy Savage in the WWE HOF. Once they do that, they need to start inducting Matches into the WWE HOF. And Savage/Steamboat from WM3 should be the First Match inducted. And not only should Savage/Steamboat/Elizabeth & George Steele be inducted as part of the match, but Jesse Ventura & Gorilla Monsoon should go in with them as well. Their commentary during this match made this gem of a match even better. Any other duo-and I mean ANY OTHER-calling this match-and it wouldn't have been that good.
As someone who grew up as a wrestling fan and later majored in Theatre in college, hearing Ventura say "wrestling is ballet with violence" made me smile. I don't agree with everything that Ventura says, but he couldn't be anymore right on that statement.
Jesse Ventura is bat shit crazy at times when talking politics/conspiracy theories, but when he talks about wrestling-I could seriously listen to Jesse talk all day.
***** Jesse is one of the few ex-politicians who has actually ever told the real truth, and that is a small minority and such minorities are hated by the majority who would rather be sheep. As it is said, if they aren't calling you crazy, you're probably not telling it enough.
sllimthg Read Pavlov, Edward Bernays, mind control is actually real and of varied qualities. The Frankfurt Institute for Social Research pioneered it, the Nazis perfected it. Mainstream media does it today 24/7.
In another interview I saw, Jesse give, he says that he cried for an hour when he heard Gorilla Monsson died. Shows how respected and loved everyone felt about Gorilla Monsson.
I ENJOY WATCHING HOUSE SHOWS FROM THE 1980'S FROM MSG, BOSTON, TORONTO, ETC. ONE OF THE REASONS IS JESSE DOING COMMENTARY WITH GORILLA MONSOON. THEY WERE AN AWESOME TEAM.
Someday people will look back at the old wrestlers and realize how incredible of a thing they did, living the character, kayfabe and all the bumps and the ability to put an ass every 18"
Absolutely no disrespect to Jesse Ventura with this comment, but when I first looked at him with that hair, I was half expecting him to scream out, "GREAT SCOTT!".
Now I know who John Madden is! I’ve heard his name when watching videos about retro games and they mentioned John Madden 92, 93, 99 etc but I never knew who he was or what he did and plus I’d never seen a Madden game in the shops either and I’ve been playing video games for 35yrs
Did you hear THAT folks?! According to Mr. Ventura, wrestling is a combination of "ATHLETICISM and ACTING." In other words, in Mr. Ventura's opinion, wrestling is "PHYSICAL THEATRE." Now, in MY opinion, for those that say that wrestling is "fake," THOSE people DON'T KNOW or UNDERSTAND the "ART of SHOWMANSHIP."
Wrestler, governor, navy seal, actor, mayor, best selling author, professor at Harvard, bodyguard for the Rolling Stones, and sgt at arms for the mongols motorcycle club Jesse can do it all 2020 let's put a wrestler in the White House
Saturday Night's Main Event with Jesse The Body,Ace, and Roddy Piper in that classic 3 man tag. Godamn that was legendary. And the Saturday Night Main Event leading up before that with Jesse burying Uncle Elmer on the mic while HotRod came out to break up the pig wedding. hahaha. Wrestling won't even be like that ever again,good times.
I loved it at wm 6 when Ultimate Warrior ran to then ring and Jesse criticized him for running saying since it was before the match saying it was 'bad strategy' to waste energy hahaha!
strikes me how incredibly lucky, clever, and/or self-disciplined he must have been in order to survive his time in the service, wrestling, and politics-few physical ailments, if any, to show for it...he would have easily won this election if he ran-so much better than the current options
i know that rosemberg also talks about rap music or something. that guy probably was a rap music espert, not a wrestling guy. thus the stupid questions.
i pray that it never takes place, Zemeckis likely would squash any attempt by Universal. But then again, never say never. Fingers will remain crossed that it never happens
Jesse sounds about as mad as I was when the other dude didn't know shit about wrestling! I mean seriously? Just sit there and grin if you don't know a damn thing! Heel or Babyface?!? God damn.... BTW Vetnura 4 President 2016!!!!
Best color guy ever...also, my second favorite character in Predator.
I loved the banter between Jesse and Gorilla Monsoon. I can even remember as a child watching Jesse and his tag team partner Adrian Adonis as the East//West connection.
Jesse is such a legend. Love his passion and joy of wrestling, he talks out of character just like he did on air. A great listen and very insightful.
👍

Best imo
"Look at that! That's disgusting! Makes me wanna puke!"
great interview Jesse is always fun to listen to
either jesse ventura or doc brown?
+KDXtreme ™ Hahaha! That was exactly what I was going to say.
KDXtreme ™ Doc the body Brown now
Lum It looks like Doc Brown put on a few pounds LMAO!
If Doc Brown was a.professional wrestler.......
Jesse Ventura is wrestling what John Madden is to football.. I'd agree with that.

I grew up on Jerry the King Lawler and Jim Ross...But I love old matches with Jesse and Gorilla monsoon, Really great commentary

"if you believe it, its true." im pretty sure jessy ventura still lives by that statement.
lol I loved Jesse and Vince on commentary. Jesse and Vince and Heenan and Gorilla doesn't get any better than that.
When Heenan and Lawler defended a heel, their arguments were so over-the-top and desperately illogical, they came across as heels themselves.. But when Ventura did it, he made great points and spoke with absolute confidence about how the heels were just smart guys who work the system to win, like any rational person would.

Man Jesse Ventura seems like a genuine nice guy
Love this! Rock N' Wrestling era was really the best ever

Exactly! that 3rd guy actually asked, "what's a bad guy announcer?" They both looked at him like he was an idiot.
Jesse Ventura is bat shit crazy at times when talking politics/conspiracy theories, but when he talks about wrestling-I could seriously listen to Jesse talk all day.
Oh my goodness you've slayed me. I don't know how I'll go on.

***** OK and Happy Friday to you as well!

I agree with him on Steamboat and Macho Man being the greatest match I have ever seen.
so weird how ventura went from wrestling to governor and basically the voice of the truth on TV
I admit I marked out when Jesse called Tito Santana "Chico"
In another interview I saw, Jesse give, he says that he cried for an hour when he heard Gorilla Monsson died. Shows how respected and loved everyone felt about Gorilla Monsson.

"It's only cheating if you get caught, Monsoon."
Jesse should take old painless to the dude asking the questions
Jesse has the best voice ever.
Someday people will look back at the old wrestlers and realize how incredible of a thing they did, living the character, kayfabe and all the bumps and the ability to put an ass every 18"
My uncle before it really became popular also called it physical ballet! R.I.P Ib!💔
he looks like doc from back to the future lol much respect for jesse
Is that Jesse Ventura or Doc brown?
Adam Mountain LOL!!!!! IKR!!!!
Absolutely no disrespect to Jesse Ventura with this comment, but when I first looked at him with that hair, I was half expecting him to scream out, "GREAT SCOTT!".
That makes two of us.
Physical theatre. Now there is an apt description of pro-wrestling.
Now I know who John Madden is! I’ve heard his name when watching videos about retro games and they mentioned John Madden 92, 93, 99 etc but I never knew who he was or what he did and plus I’d never seen a Madden game in the shops either and I’ve been playing video games for 35yrs

Ventura, and Heenan are the best heal announcers period. I can will watch a awful match with them commentating.
Was Jesse really the first heel announcer? Even before Bobby "The Brain" Heenan?
+Raggle101 yup
Heenan replaced Jesse. Lawler replaced Heenan.
@@NastiMarvasti He never replaced Jesse. They mostly were around the same time. Jess just began announcing a few mos earlier than Heenan
No. Ole Anderson made Roddy Piper the first heel announcer in Georgia.
Cool. I love that movie. Arnold and Jesse Ventura with a toupet.
Wrestler, governor, navy seal, actor, mayor, best selling author, professor at Harvard, bodyguard for the Rolling Stones, and sgt at arms for the mongols motorcycle club Jesse can do it all
2020 let's put a wrestler in the White House
Wow, the hair looks great.
Saturday Night's Main Event with Jesse The Body,Ace, and Roddy Piper in that classic 3 man tag. Godamn that was legendary. And the Saturday Night Main Event leading up before that with Jesse burying Uncle Elmer on the mic while HotRod came out to break up the pig wedding. hahaha.

I really love Jesse Ventura and I am not a huge wrestling fan. He is just a great storyteller.
good to see the guy in a light mode
Kinda messed up that you didn't put in the part about his book at the end.
he looks like "Doc" from back to the future now
jesse Ventura aka Christopher Lloyd
Roddy Piper was siding with the heels when he was doing commentary with Gordon Solie on Georgia Championship Wrestling back in 1981
jesse looks like christophet loyd in back to the future
IT WAS MIND COONTROOOOL
Jesse looks likes Benjamin Franklin lmao.
10 dolla!!!
That was good
strikes me how incredibly lucky, clever, and/or self-disciplined he must have been in order to survive his time in the service, wrestling, and politics-few physical ailments, if any, to show for it...he would have easily won this election if he ran-so much better than the current options
Is it me or is Venture slowly changing into Doc Brown from Back to the Future?
I never know that he recived a flying elbow smash from Macho Man Randy Savage. If someone have tha footage please post it. thanks.
were the microphones off?
ITS STILL REAL TO ME DAMNIT!!!
When they remake back to the future they can cast him as doc. (not that I want this remake to happen but I hear it is)
Ventura looks like Doc Brown
I can listen to Jesse read a phone book.
9:22 - No, no, no! I want to hear more about wrestling, Jesse!
No credit to Superstar Billy Graham? He was Jesse's idol.
I never knew cypher sounds sat in on these interviews
i know that rosemberg also talks about rap music or something. that guy probably was a rap music espert, not a wrestling guy. thus the stupid questions.
IMO the best commentary team in wrestling history is Jesse and Gorilla. Close second is Gorilla and Heenan.
damn.....rosenberg is an awesome interviewer
Doc from Back to the Future?...
He is starting to look like Doc from Back To The Future.
Jesse would let Vince have it too! He didn’t hold back!
lol @ the people complaining about Jesse's hair.
looooooooooookkkkk,its the doctor emmet l. brown..the doctor from back to the future!!!!! :O
Jesse Ventura A good copy of Superstar Billy Graham Had a lot of charisma and limited ring work also was Was very good at heel commentary
They should have mean gene okerlund on here
Hold on where am i
COFFEY COFFEY WAKE UP COFFEY!!!
i pray that it never takes place, Zemeckis likely would squash any attempt by Universal. But then again, never say never. Fingers will remain crossed that it never happens
