Mark Henry & Kevin Sullivan on Ernie Ladd 

I have had the pleasure of meeting Ernie Ladd at DFW waiting on a flight back to Lafayette. He was one of the kindest and very gracious people to talk with.

It’s strange seeing Kevin Sullivan in this light. He was such a great heel!

I'm old enough to have seen Ernie play football in the late 60s. Number 99 was a beast for the Chargers and Chiefs. 💯

Ernie was a great football player. He really played his roll well in pro wrestling because in reality , he was a gentle giant.

Big fan of Mark Henry. Class act & knows what he's talking about 👍

Big Cat was a big tough guy in the ring...but a really nice guy out of the ring. Met him about a year before he passed away outside of a Circle K gas station in south Louisiana. Spoke with him for a few minutes He was extremely gracious and didn't seem bothered by me walking up and talking to him. I made sure to tell him that watching him perform every Saturday on Mid-South Wrestling helped get me through the grieving process from the death of my father. He smiled, shook my hand and said "Thank you!" I believe that he felt a sense of gratitude. Great athlete and kind man.

Ernie Ladd was one of greatest heels of all time. He could do it all in the business. Ernie Ladd had a very unique understanding of professional wrestling. He was way ahead of his time.

I have some much respect for ALL these guys. Thank you for all the feedback .

Ernie was the king of all wrestling and on my Mount Rushmore of professional wrestlers.

Thank you all gentlemen appreciate it

Ernie "The Cat" Ladd was always a favourite when he would come to Big Time Wrestling at Cobo Hall in Detroit when I was a kid. He had the "it" factor.

Ernie Ladd on the mic was ahead of his time. I love WWE has him in the intro. I call him the black Ric Flair.

If I could bring back five or ten dead wrestlers, Ernie Ladd and Ox Baker would definitely be in the group.

Wow another amazing video from the best channel on RU-vid. Ernie Ladd was one of the best of all time. The greatest match everyone must see in Ladd vs chick donavan. He also took chick's head off . You will watch at least 10 and laugh to your a s off. He was amazing in and out of the ring. Thank you and keep up the good work

This was pure gold..thank you.

Ernie Ladd used to wrestle here in ohio in the mid 70s for studio matches he was impressive even in studio matches

That girl standing in the back should be filling Kevin Sullivan’s drink

Mark and Jim Cornette could do Ernie Ladd impersonations all day long!

The Big Cat was my favorite

My favorite Ernie Ladd moment was (watch the Ernie Ladd - Jay Strongbow incident)

I was in the stands with Mark in Lafayette .

Man! Ernie would be cancelled today if he gave his type of promos in 2024. He did not give a shit what he said for the heat.

The natives are getting restless!

I grew Up in St Louis and My Dad used to go to the matches at the Chase Park Plaza Hotel back then. He said Ernie the Cat Ladd was on eof the Best wrestlers that wrestled at the chase. he sued to talk about Fritz von erich and Bulldog Bob brown mixing it up. We stil have a poster from a match where Jonny Valiant I think Dad said had His eye popped out from a match there.

Let me holla at you playa💪🏾

Boston patriots ☄️

Is that Teddy Long?

Ernie was an incredible heel. He had charisma, he was a tremendous athlete and influence on wrestling. Most importantly he was a very strong Christian man. He's with the ultimate ring master in Jesus.

Ernie was so " smart " .

Look at the smokin hott chic in the back.
