OMG was at a buffet in Florida when he got kicked out because he ate all the smoked salmon and asked for more. He told them that he felt he did not get his money's worth. It was hilarious, but you had to be there to appreciate it.
Gang is one of my best friends from my 25 years of wrestling. Great human being! Worked in Angola state prison in Louisiana...lost his house and belongings a few years ago due to flood...GOD BLESS him 🙏💯
What was the name of the tv show he starred in? I was a strange child, often by choice, like when choosing to be a huge fan of the one-man gang. He was my second favorite wrestler, maybe even my first because it was 2 different types of enjoyment from hulk hogan and the one man gang. When I heard his TV show was coming out I was so excited with anticipation... and then I watched the TV show. Still enjoyed it just for the fact that my favorite wrestler was on the TV. He was always fun to watch and looked like a good guy inside even to a brainwashed Mark like myself at that age. You know, just being a kid. Although as an adult I'm still proud to have been a hulkamaniac. Lives forever brother! ✌️❤️🖖
The first time that I saw the One Man Gang was when General Skandar Akbar took the Samoans from the Big Cat Ernie Ladd. Ladd went into the ring and was clobbering the three of them when the One Man Gang appeared and turned the tide. He did a splash onto Ernie's knees, putting him out of action. The Gang was huge!
Well, this is *not* what I expected from the video but here we are... I mentioned before I love your interview style and this is why. Letting the conversation go gets better stories then we would otherwise have.
I worked in Maximum Security at a prison here in Tennessee: Morgan County Correctional Complex, the successor of Brushy Mountain Prison. I worked there for over 10 years. We didn't have a Death Row there, just a bunch of notorious inmates. Riverbend houses our state's Death Row, over near Memphis. But yeah, most of what Dutch said Gang said about the atmosphere in places like that is all pretty accurate. I was over 120 inmates in 4 pods of about 36 men to a pod, with me responsible for the A & B pods at like Countime & during security rounds. And consistently was key w/ my guys. You had to come in every day & try & treat them the same way you did the day before & not like, one day be nice & pass the phone around & then the following day come in & not run a phone the entire shift. If you were the same guy every day, & treated them like men & not like animals (which I alway did & never had one single issue w/ any of my guys) then they grew to see you were a good person & then they would behave & mind me & never gave me one issue. All they want tho in a 23 hr a day lockdown is that firm fair treatment & that consistency & if you give thar back to them, I found that like Gang said, they would generally never be an issue. Just keep it quiet & not be a big dick to them. All they want..
My issue with capital punishment is the frequency of people being exonerated after they have been executed. If as a society we could perfectly guarantee no innocent people were being convicted I'd be all for it
I roamed the roads of the Dirty South for 18 years as an indy wrestler. The part where Dutch talked about going into a town where you don't know a soul and being respectful because you don't know who the crazy bastards are - SOOO true. HEAVY truth. And it's not just that - not only do you not know who is unhinged, you also don't know whose daddy owns half the county and can give you a bad time that way. I was on a show with OMG once, at Championship Park in Glencoe, AL. He seemed like he just wanted to do his bit and get the hell out of there. We all have evenings like that.
5:00 There's a video here on RUclips about OMG working as a guard on death row at the Louisiana State Penitentiary. But that video is about 14 years old so maybe he moved to Mississippi and got the same job there.
Does Dutch know what happened to the Tonga Kid? Years ago he was in Mansfield prison. Allegedly he was in a car where others got out, went into a house and killed someone
yes every story i ve ever heard the Gang was easy going , .......let things go. but this story , ...yeah ,this guy had to be a super a-hole! Also, I heard Gang hated Eric Bishoff . At one meeting ,he felt like hitting him, but didnt .
At the 8:44 mark. Dutch, some of us are for the Right to CHOOSE abortion AND for Capital Punishment to be an option for those whose crimes have no doubt that it was committed and the crimes rise to the level (murdering others) that a life should be taken. Love OMG (Crusher Broomfield) by the way as a seemingly consummate pro wrestler and even better person as George Gray. I grew up in Memphis and saw him as Crusher Broomfield when ICW was on one of the UHF (look it up) channels in Memphis. Either channel 24 or channel 30.
He was pointing out the hypocrisy or those who oppose the death penalty for criminals but approve of the death penalty for infants. It's a strange position to have.
I watched "Hero's of Wrestling" live. Yes sir it was that bad. You are 100% correct. The snow flakes will tell you that capital punishment is cruel. They forget what these animals did to other human beings to render themselves on death row. If you ask the snow flakes about abortion they want to abort each and every pregnancy.
That's not true. Death Row inmates are at a facility so long they know the routine and the politics. They have a daily set routine that they are used to and depend on. They commit a crime they get sent to another facility where they have no privledges, no connections, no protection on and on. Like going to San Quentin to Pelican Bay, where they are on 23hr lockdown and when they get to go outside for one hour, they're literally locked in a cage. No worse punishment to a prisoner than take their routine away from them.
One man gang had a believable gimmick then leave it to Vince to make him a clown prince Hakeem, Vince is goofy and has created some of the most horrible gimmicks to bury talent
Crazy how Dutch doesn't get the perceived contradiction about being pro choice and anti capital punishment also exist but the other way around in his side. But what do expect from Trump ball coddler?😊
Being from Chicago it CRUSHED me to find out OMG wasn't really from Halsted Street. 😔😔🤣🤣🤣🤣
OMG was at a buffet in Florida when he got kicked out because he ate all the smoked salmon and asked for more. He told them that he felt he did not get his money's worth. It was hilarious, but you had to be there to appreciate it.
Lmao! 😂 When did this happen
One Man Buffet
That's awesome. I'm a big guy I've had a similar experience at a buffet
Hogan said OMG was one of the best wrestlers hes ever worked with
I'm not big I got had that happen also
Gang is one of my best friends from my 25 years of wrestling. Great human being! Worked in Angola state prison in Louisiana...lost his house and belongings a few years ago due to flood...GOD BLESS him 🙏💯
❤❤❤
What really sticks out to me is how safe he was with his splash, and it was still replay worthy with how good it looked.
What was the name of the tv show he starred in?

✌️❤️🖖
OMG was the only wrestler who legit scared me as a kid. He was one of the all time great heels.
So stoned I didn’t catch a word he said I was just watching that mustache move while he was talking 😂
It's like a real life Yosemite Sam
Even '420' didn't help me watching the Heroes of Wrestling PPV yesterday. Will attempt to finish it tonight...😂
Dutch is mesmerizing 😂
Zoomer? Best of luck in life sweetie. I'm guessing u think the world owes you everything starting with mummy and daddy....
I just get really high and zone out on the mustache.
He was great monster heel as OMG . The Akeem gimmick didn't do him any favours but he made it work 👍
Akeem was like Goldust, terrible gimmick for someone with no talent, but if you put on someone with awesome talent, they make it work great.
They did him dirty with that change.
He recently did a shoot with Rip Rogers. It was really good.
The first time that I saw the One Man Gang was when General Skandar Akbar took the Samoans from the Big Cat Ernie Ladd.

Another Mid South fan I see. I am too!! Watched it every summer vacation on WJTV 12 and later WAPT 16 in Jackson MS.
I also remember when Dirty Dutch first appeared on Mid South TV in 1985 with "Shoo Baby" his trusty bullwhip.
@@fredicagoillanoise1309I watched every Saturday morning! Even went to the Jackson coliseum a few times to see them live. By far my favorite promotion
I loved the One Man Gang character, and I think he should have held the WWF Heavyweight Championship. I didn't care for the Akeem character as much.
Loved One Man Gang in WCCW as part of Devastation Inc. Hated the Akeem gimmick in WWF
I sgree, he was great in Dallas.
He was the shit in the uwf
@@harveymcelroy9332hell yes!!!
Akeem the African Dream 😃

James is the best interview in the wrestling world.
This interview was d!sgusting. People from that southern area of murica are absolutely putrid

I watched Hero’s of Wrestling on RUclips. The best was hearing Dutch swear after the show signed off. Hehehe. Good times.
Sparkle City, South Carolina. Stand up!!
Best gimmick name ever
Gang was a non-drinker, which is a refreshing Anamoly in the wrestling business
Another bad ass gimmick that worked everywhere that Vince ruined
One man gang was SCARY
I remember omg and kerry von erich had a pretty good feud
Walking him to the death chair with The slick and Akeem Gimmick.lol

If you search for "One Man Gang" on RUclips, the first video that comes up is a match he had against the Super Giant Ninja, a.k.a the Yet-Tay!
5:00
There's a video here on RUclips about OMG working as a guard on death row at the Louisiana State Penitentiary. But that video is about 14 years old so maybe he moved to Mississippi and got the same job there.
OMG/Akeem for the Wwe HOF!!!!
I remember i.c.w. very well
One of the fascinating things about The Green Mile was Tom Hanks saying ...lets make sure we keep everyone calm.
A wrestling bank robber in the 70s or 80s would be a good story
Gang is a true professional. This dude had to piss him off bad.
I’m surprised OMG a would take liberties with anyone. He seem too nice of a guy for that.
He didn't hurt him just roughed him up alittle
Unit 32 at Parchman...
Death Row as Dutch said....
Big boss man and gang would have been a great tag team .
Does Dutch know what happened to the Tonga Kid? Years ago he was in Mansfield prison. Allegedly he was in a car where others got out, went into a house and killed someone
Known him for years and his family never heard that 🤔

The "WWFs Twin Towers" is one of the best teams of all time
Until 9/11 booked them
One man gang is the 🐐
Shouldve been the first black heavy weight champion of the world
You do know that
One Man Gang was white,
right ???
Not black 🤔
@Randall-dg6wn you're right I should have said African American
@@clayton5584 he is not black at all 100% white boy

What part of "He's white"
are you not understanding ??
I've had burned out light

Dutch has a good idea
One Man Gang was what 6'6 and 400+. You dont tell that to "lay it in there..."
Gang worked at the Louisiana State Penitentiary NOT Mississippi…. Angola Stage Prison.
Death penalty’s are not handed out nearly enough
You boys know what went on.
Crusher Broomfield...Dutch is right 100%
I still believe in Akeem
Don't call him One Man Gang. That's his slave name. His real name is Akeem.
Akeem the African Dream lol
He should've been the first black world champion
His real name is George gray
😃😃😃
@@clayton5584 ......
Which would have been
hard to do since he was white.

Big moon......
That got dark
They need to play heroes of wrestling on death row. It will remind them that there are things worse than death?
Gang was a MOUNTAIN of a human. Go see pix of him next to Andrea. He's RITE there w him height and weight wise
For capital punishment
Death Row prisoners can do anything. You can't punish them anymore.
That's not true. Death Row inmates are at a facility so long they know the routine and the politics. They have a daily set routine that they are used to and depend on. They commit a crime they get sent to another facility where they have no privledges, no connections, no protection on and on. Like going to San Quentin to Pelican Bay, where they are on 23hr lockdown and when they get to go outside for one hour, they're literally locked in a cage. No worse punishment to a prisoner than take their routine away from them.
Unfortunately, One Man Gang was part of the failed concussion lawsuit in 2018. So, he will probably never be inducted into the WWE Hall of Fame.
Good to see dutch is keeping it politically incorrect, never change guy.
Abolish the state.
The akeem gimmick. Was ridiculous. 🤣👋
Everything Abdullah did was awful.
I dont understand people wanting blood. Weird
Fentanyl.
😂😂😂
You can be for the death penalty and pro choice.
Literally no conflict there.
Heroes of Wresling ppv is better than AEW, at least it had real stars...
funny joke bro ... watching heroes of wrestling
One man gang had a believable gimmick then leave it to Vince to make him a clown prince Hakeem, Vince is goofy and has created some of the most horrible gimmicks to bury talent
Lol one man gang lost in about ten seconds on a real fight. lost to kimo in ten seconds. Lol
Crazy how Dutch doesn't get the perceived contradiction about being pro choice and anti capital punishment also exist but the other way around in his side. But what do expect from Trump ball coddler?😊
YOU'RE NOT VERY BRIGHT... ONE IS AN INNOCENT BABY, THE OTHER IS A MUDERER OR SERIAL R*PIST!!!
Crazy how you don't get that an abortion is killing a baby.
A watch along with heroes of wrestling could be interesting especially if it's easily and freely available on RUclips
