HONKY TONK MAN ON MACHO MAN 

He knows he was a very good character but never a really great wrestler which is nice to hear, so many former wrestlers think that they were Gods or something lol

I agree, glad I'm a child of the 80's. So many good memories.

well that's what sunny time AZ do for ya.!! Toowaa!!

I saw him AFTER this interview at a local show. He wasn’t like…In his prime but he put on a decent show. He had just left a con where hacksaw was the day before and he started shooting on him. He came off the second rope with his leg drop even. Pretty nice afternoon over all. Glad I got to meet him.

Yeah the 80s were just magic

Real too you get a sense it's not bull shit

Agreed, I Appreciate his Perspective.

You're right. And I feel people have forgotten just how great a heel he was. Definitely one of the best of the eighties.

@@tarantino0151 him and the million dollar man were the most iconic heels during their respective runs

@@ChanceUriahMiller Couldn't agree more. The people absolutely hated them lol

Top heel

The man

Carlos Tablas Ricky Steamboat got his throat crushed by Macho man and his head swollen from Jake the Snake, he should have gotten an oscar for his performance.

Cuppa Coffeeeeyeah

no shit sherlock..

Got to see what was so great about it.

@@samsdad110 Psychology. -- there is very little of that today. Ironically, today we have wrestlers that do wrestling moves.

We are if we don't abuse our bodies!! Macho Man destroyed himself.

No. We're not here long.

I think it was all because of his early steroid and cocaine use... i think just like Hogan and a lot of wrestlers, Macho regrets doing all those drugs and ruining his body.

miss elizabeth died in 03

15 years since we lost Eddie. Still feels like yesterday.

You're right he was the best

I wouldn't say they were close or better, they just attained a level of character development and made it their own. That's what is missing these days. In the old days characters were an extension of the real person and that's what made it feel real.

mr. jinks but then look what happened to Liz when she was freed? Hooked up with Luger and died of a drug overdose. Sad.

I know this is a separate issue but but just wanted to add that's probably the reason why Liz left much remember because she felt trapped and controlled he seemed like a bit of a control freak. But he is a great entertainer and a great wrestler and always guaranteed a good match when you watch Macho Man

His best feud was against spiderman

Except for tipping. He's a liar about that.

tipping?

His Rick Rude account seems like major BS

Dre Colston Sr Damn straight!

I wouldn't be respectful to Macho. It's been rumoured that Randy Savage sexual relations with Stephanie McMahon when she was a underage girl. Also Randy Savage and his father fat shamed wrestler King Kong Bundy

@@shanewilson8728 The Randy Savage/Stephanie McMahon thing never happened. Savage and Vince McMahon had differing beliefs over his career (with Savage wanting to keep wrestling and Vince wanting Savage on commentary), and McMahon was also upset that Savage took the Slim Jim deal along to WCW. The Steph/Savage rumor started because people decided to come up with a reason as to why Vince refused to mention Randy's name at all. They seem to have reconciled at some point however, because before his death, Randy did a promo promoting the WWE All-Stars game. Chances are Vince and Randy were negotiating a Hall of Fame/Legends deal, as that game was the first time in years that Randy Savage was in a WWE game.

@@shanewilson8728 his name was king Kong bundy...we all fat shame him by using the name technically

Hogan is on good terms with one person.

He injured his neck while filming a cameo in the 2003 Spiderman. I think that did him in.

I argued with my brother for 2 hours the other day that pro wrestlings prime ended around the time Andre the Giant died. He tried to interject with the Rock, and Stone Cold and I just said NAH BRUH

lol don muraco told u? ur a fuckin mark. i had a conversation with Chris Candido one time on the Wildwood NJ boardwalk and have never felt the need to tell anyone. u didnt know Don Muraco. just like i didnt "know" Candido. shut your mouth weirdo

From what little I know, he was a pretty good minor league player. I don't know if he would have made the majors if he would have stayed healthy, but I always got the impression that base was his first love.

I think that was in 1991

Lmfao that made my day

bruz bruzarelli EINHORN IS A MAN???!!!

I think most people and wrestlers agree that Hogan was a horrible wrestler. His matches usually all went the same way. What Hogan did do well was present himself as this bigger than life persona. Macho Man was a waaayyyyy better wrestler than Hogan. That’s why there’s really such resentment towards Hogan from other wrestlers. I remember being a kid and reading that wrestling Mag I think it was Wrestling illustrated or something Nd they’d do these what if Hogan wrestled Flair and Flair would always be the winner and as a Kid I’d wonder why, but as I got older I understood, Flair was a way better wrestler.

BS , people just can't remember how exciting his matches were. He made wrestling what it is today.

@@GTSN38 BS! I remember all his matches clearly and they were extremely boring and repetitive as he had no skills. Tons of better wrestlers back then!

That's your opinion

The only exciting matches from Hogan were with the Ultimate Warrior or with Macho Man

Yes that will not be an issue in the future.

+Abolisher1 Most wrestlers, especially those competing back then had a limited repertoire in th ring. While they may had a huge skill set in real life, they had to limit it to make the matches workable. Even Bret Hart, a guy is is arguable one of the best technicians had matches that were pretty predictale. A clothes line, back breaker, Russian leg sweep, elbow off the second rope.

@@kennethmalone4689 naah, Flair is one of a kind in this regard. i follow him through the 80s and early 90s and every match was basically the same.

Noo. I once watched a 57 minute Ric Flair vs Ronnie Garvin match and Flair delivered about 67 backhand chops (1.01 chops a minute). Never before had I seen a Ric Flair match where he delivered backhand chops to his opponent. *Disclaimer: I've only ever watched this one Ric Flair match.

Wrestling wasn’t as televised in Flairs day. He could get away with using the same choreography repeatedly.

Unjustifiably in a position I'd rather not be in!

I watch that promo every time somebody mentions it! And hey have t-shirt online!
