He was a class act and belongs in the WWE Hall of Fame! RIP!

I remember around mid 2000s when he was fighting cancer he used to pop in wrestling forum most nights chatting to fans and telling stories.

I got to know John a little bit on the Wrestlecrap Forums. He was a nice man, who was really great with the fans.

John Tenta is my dads cousin (Aka my second cousin), my dad has a doll of him and deeply misses him. May he rest in peace, RIP

The one thing I really enjoyed about John's ring work was that for a big man he was fairly quick and athletic. I remember watching a match he had with Tugboat and both of them threw dropkicks on the other. That was rare in the WWF. You never saw big men do those kind of moves. Most big guy matches were slow and plodding, but John could work at a good pace.

We went to the same High School... I herd from my teachers how nice of a guy he was... RIP John, gone but never forgotten...

John was a gentleman and an all around Badass human!!!! Was honored to help him with his school and be apart of his fundraising shows he put on!!! R.I.P.

Wow!!! 42 yrs old, which is the exact age I am, and I think man, he did ALOT in those 42 yrs! What a guy! RIP EQ

One of the best big guys of all time and such a loss. If he was around nowadays I could quite imagine him making the add appearance at a Royal Rumble or on one of the legends nights.

Earthquake is the most underrated legend in WWF.

great to get more info on Earthquake, was always a huge fan. RIP.

John "the gentle giant" Tenta! My favorite wrestler of all time! The fact that John still hasn't been inducted into the WWE HOF proves what a disgusting human being Vince truly is! A big thanks for making this video! RI.P John!

those were some great pics. I'd never seen him that young or that slim before. also, I think he did great job at protecting his opponents during his finisher. it looks devastating, but if you look close you can see how well he does it. nice job.

John Tenta was one of the best big men ever. A special blend of power, agility and size. RiP Big Man, you are missed

The Natural Disasters were a childhood favorite. This was an awesome career retrospective. I've gotten to meet Fred when I lived in Florida but I'm sad that I never met John. The Disasters team deserve to be in the Hall of Fame.

In BC we had Earthquake, in Alberta we had Brett and Owen Hart, in Saskatchewan we had Roddy Pipep and in Manitoba we had Chris Jericho. Gotta love western Canada 🇨🇦

Thank you John for being apart of my childhood and Triple H do the right thing and induct Earthquake into the WWE Hall Of Fame 2024 plz 🙏🏾

A true respectable Canadian man. Rest in peace john and thank you for bringing joy to the fans. John Tenta 💐💐💐

A respectable big man in wrestling, actually fun to watch.

His powerslam was a treat to see. He even did it on Bastion Booger who also was a huge guy showing how strong John was. RIP John.

I never knew anything about him other than growing up and watching this huge fucking dude they called "Earthquake" wrestle. What a cool guy. I hate learning all of these great things about all of these great people when their time has already stopped.

Now this is a wrestler that should have held a major world title! Tenta was an absolute beast.

Gotta love this man..what an amazing talent. R.I.P John Tenta

For some reason you can tell he was a good dude. RIP

One of THE BEST big men this business will ever see. A legit tough SOB in every sense of the word. God bless you Big John.

He's absolutely underrated. Good Guy with Skills. You are missed big Men 🙏🏼 RIP 🖤

fine work as always he was a top guy when i first started watching loved his stuff good hard hitting stuff and man what a look imagine him vs broody

Great job. Why isn’t he in the hall of fame? R.I.P EarthQuake. I would love to see one on Ravishing Rick Rude. R.I.P

I saw John Tenta wrestle in WWF and ALL STAR WRESTLING. Seeing him wrestle in Cloverdale in front of 100 people was awesome, And in front of 11,000 people when I was front row when he Beat Hulk Hogan in Main Event on a December 1990 card at Vancouver PNE Coliseum, Sad he is gone.

John definitely deserves to be in any Hall of Fame.

Happy you included the WrestleCrap period. I was around for that time, and looked forward to his updates. Its when the updates slowed, and then ended altogether, you knew things had turned south. All I can remember was how incredibly sweet he was.

Should be in the hall of fame for sure!

I remember his tv debut with Dino Bravo and the warrior. I was watching the show with my grandparents just 2 days before my 5 birthday

Brilliant editing at the beginning, with footsteps and moves in sync with the music! As always, just fantastic stuff.

Amateur/Pro/Sumo Wrestler, Football/Rugby player and Bouncer. Dude was a badass.

RIP John we miss you

I remember watching Earthquake debut on WWF. It was awesome.

I didn’t appreciate Tenta enough when I was younger. Truly an agile and fast big man. I remember being absolutely devastated when he attacked Hogan on Brother Love I’ve never seen anyone say anything bad about the guy. By all accounts, a real gentleman and a sweetheart. RIP

He looked like Tony Soprano a little bit

Seeing Earthquake beat Yokozuna in a sumo match on Raw was priceless. Yokozuna was the hottest heel in WWF at this moment; even if he didn't pinned Yoko, I always felt like it was a huge deal for Earthquake. RIP to both guys. 🍻🍻

This guy was one of the most believable heels ever!

Very well done. As I kid I was scared of the Mighty "Earthquake" and I am so thankful and grateful for the Roll John Tenta played in my childhood happiness 😊 R.I.P

Excellent,loved John Tenta , absolute legend . R.I.P Big man .

John was 4-0 at Mania. One of the better records out there! Also when he squashed Jakes snake on TV was one of those freaky OMG moments

The greatest wrestler from Canada. He was good in the WWF. I liked the matches he had with hulk hogan in those days.

He also has a character in the mobile game WWE Champions. He is a Powerhouse and is one of the baddest characters in the game.

I appreciate this channel. It give you the back stories of the underrated wrestlers.

Very well done! Thank you for all the great info!! John was a great wrestler! 🦈

Please do one on Haku! Also Bad News Brown Please!

RIP Earthquake. He was big scary dude.

That was a great video. Very well researched. I really appreciate your content. Thank you very much.

Thanks for the amazing documentary

Love what you’re doing! Earned my subscription.

When I returned home from Desert Storm I bumped into him in an airport. I asked him for his autograph and he said only if he could have mine. Helluv a guy

Some of the most well put together documentaries I've seen i came across one of your videos looking for a good wrestling documentary and been hooked since keep up the amazing work. Subscribed.

This is my new favorite wrestling channel. Love the biographies!

name another big man that runs the ropes as good as big john

Excellent video!!! Great job on the research and presentation!

Got the chance to talk to Mr. Tenta a few times a lot of it was about amateur wrestling (HS and college), man was a class act, very nice, and really cared about people.

Thats the biggest 18 yr old i ever seen ! God bless you John ! I grew up watching Earthquake rumble !

Thanks !

Love these, keep it up brah

Nicely done mate. I thought this was going to be a slide show. So thank you!

Brilliant mini doc.

Born and raised in Vancouver. Later resided in Florida. Buried in Texas

The amazing song at the end is A Wanderer by Peter Crosby

Guys a legend. Should be in the wwe hof easily.

You'll never be forgotten & always praying for your Family!🙏💖

Always picked Earthquake in the video games. His finisher is my favorite

good video

My favorite "Big Man" in wrestling. A great athlete and a hell of a performer.

Very interesting/ thorough doc

Hey OWD, thank you for quality work on all those US wrestling documentaries. That's great. Sorry for my poor english and greetings from Belgium. 👍

bro i grow with world of sport English wrestling on the satellite. im from italy and your channel in my opinion is one of the best

Your videos just popped up on my timeline and I saw what else you’ve put up and I’m not gonna lie I’m pretty excited for your choice of topics lol

RIP John and thanks for the memories.

Great video upload interesting to watch cheers m8 loved it so good what a great wwf wrestler earthquake was as well cheers bud

Wow the feels on this one rip John Tenta, one of the good guys🙏🙏

This is great

Fantastic video

Great watch 🙏

Wow I remember that wwf debut so clearly still.

A great talent and a great man, no matter what!

Even though I wasn't a fan of Earthquake, I loved the feuds he had with Hulk Hogan & Jake The Snake....really agile for a big man & certainly one of the WWF/WWE'S all time greats....Definitely should've been inducted into the WWE HALL OF FAME...

This is a great channel

John tenta- one of the nicest men in wrestling. I've heard the stories about how him and typhoon would close down buffets lol. Kidding aside he was a tremendous athlete, he never complained despite some of his ridiculous gimmicks, he always gave it 110%.He's a legend and deserves hof recognition

When I was a pre-teen I used to watch him on Al Tomko's All-Star Wrestling based out of Vancouver B.C. before his WWF run and sometimes I'd see him stomping around Guildford Town Centre mall in Surrey with his super-tiny Japanese wife. He really was larger then life when you saw him in person.

What a great man, and truly a world class athlete

Belongs in hall of fame

Man, I remember the program he did with Hogan. As a kid I was devastated! I knew wrestling wasn't real fighting, but I was still able to get into the storylines and this was the most repulsive and violent thing I had ever seen.

Great wrestler

How did he die at 42..... I always thought quake was born looking old, sadly missed, wonderful human being

He was 🔥🔥🔥

I got a chance to converse with John many times in the Wrestlecrap forums, and in person. Always a nice and pleasant guy to talk to and sad when he lost his life. He should be inducted to a Pro Wrestling Hall of Fame.

Big man needs to be in the hall of fame

Much respect!!! Mr. Tenta

John Tenta running the ropes is one of my favorite visuals in all of pro wrestling.

He was awesome 👏

Ten Ton Tenta, should have been easy to name
