Tito probably looks the healthiest out of all the old school wrestlers who are still alive.
I met both Tito Santana and Greg Valentine 2 weeks ago in Lubbock Texas. Great guys with good stories to share
If it was in the trash, call Jim Duggan. He has a knack for finding discarded titles.
It still sickens me when i think what wcw did to that TV title
So did Eric Young.
Mideon as well even though it wasn't in the 🗑️.
"When you're fighting the champion and you win, you get the title belt."
Thanks for clearing that up Tito. I was totally confused about how that worked. 🙄
I enjoyed watching Tito back in the 80s. He was a solid worker, and fit in perfectly before the giants came in. His matches with Valentine and Savage were good stuff.
Good ones with Martel too
@@Captain_AAhab very much so
He should have been WWF Champion
Their feud was outstanding. It was very realistic & intense. Two great stories in 6 minutes!!
It's the truth
My grandfather born 1922 in Puerto Rico both Tito Santana and Pedro Morallis was his favorite wrestlers. I grew up with all those classic wrestlers during the 70's and 80's. As a kid I met several of them when WWF in those days were coming to local high schools.
I got to meet this man in London ontario. My mother who was also mexican caught him off guard when she spoke Spanish to him.
Tito is underrated. Guy was a worker. 💯
Liked hearing Andre helped Tito to his room after being injured. Good example of what the boys meant when they say if Andre liked you he treated you like gold
No TITO!
THREW AWAY THE BELT! 🤣 I LOVED THAT BELT
R.I.P. Green IC Belt.
:(
I was at that cage match...Baltimore, MD. My first ever live event. Man, it was awesome...I still remember like yesterday
When greg the hammer had the shin pad w the airbrush broken bone was the pinnacle of his career for me.
that Tito vs greg cage match is to this day such an underrated ic title match. it belongs in the top 10!!!
Was lucky enough to twice get to watch Tito wrestle live back in his WWF days, he was great in the ring.
There is a special place in my heart for this feud. Greg Valentine was the first heel I liked. The Rock n Wrestling Connection got me into pro wrestling, but this feud kept me in.
According Greg Valentine in video on youtube said "The belt was in box in your basement. But your wife Leah collected boxes from the basement believing to be trash or the boxes were damaged by water dampness. And it was thrown out. (Assuming this is a story you told him)
Love the interview! Tito is/was a school teacher a town over from me in NJ
I'm from Roxbury, he was a substitute when I was in high school. I think he still owns a hair salon at the mall.
Looks like the salon closed in January 2022 after 25 years. I walked by it once in the early 2000's and there was a little Tito action figure on the shelf right by the window!
Somebody somewhere found THAT BELT…
He or she is now a proud owner of THAT ICONIC BELT…
Gives a new meaning to:
“One man’s trash is another man’s treasure.”
Let’s hope someone found it and kept it.
Nah.. it's probably been scrapped
@@NateNizzle Sadly you’re more than likely right. Highly unlikely anyone actually found it and kept it. If someone did, I imagine they would have said something by now especially.
You scored again James !!! Tito is somewhat an unsung hero these days ! Not to me ! I LOVED TITO as a kid . I still have his LJN figure and i remember crying when Randy cheated to beat him for the belt ! I couldnt even finish my lil McDonalds Happy Meal that Saturday morning !
He literally lives 3 minutes up the road from me. Always hear great things about him
Scott Tatlor, Tell him when you see him, Freddie Marzino from Massachusetts said hello. I think he should remember me. I used to be a jobber for the WWF in the late 70's -mid 80's Please.
@@freddie3206I literally watched your match with hogan the other day from 1980. What a coincidence!
How about Tito being the only guy to pin clean the Undertaker during takers 1st yr in WWF
Is this true?
@@nonebutchrist5136 100% it happened in Barcelona you can youtube it
@@jamstarent21 very interesting wonder what the thought process of that would be?
@@nonebutchrist5136 well there was Tito was to get a huge push as WWF were focusing on the Latin America and branching out to Mexico. It all changed and the push was given to Bret Hart and the focus went to broadcast to the European market
Im having heart flutters and palpitations about you throwing that belt in garbage !!!! If i have a stroke tonight its on you Tito !!! Then you can wear a shirt like Valentine did saying " i gave Brando Lee a Stroke " lol !
Greg is a legend rs.. unfortunately cuz of my age I missed most of his career.. I started watching WWF in 87/88 ..
Had the pleasure of meeting Tito a month ago. Lovely guy.
Damn what a crying shame Tito threw away that old green championship.
I know he worked for the Insane Clown Posse’s wrestling promotion, one member of that duo, Violent J, would probably have hand him 50 grand easily, as his a big collector of real wrestling championship belts/
Those old school title belts are still the best
So much history and legacy to those old belts
“The person that beat you would get the title…”
Who’d have thunk it.
I thought many years back that he had said, it was actually his wife who had tossed Big Green in da garbage.
I respect him not throwing her under the bus
Interesting Paul Orndorff in shoot said he passed on the IC title, and suggested Greg Valentine to be the man to fued with Santana.
Yes, I think he looked at programs with Hulk Hogan was where the money was. But Vince thought he was 51/50 anyhow, I would have loved to see Orndorff with the IC title though. His feud with Santana was at the point where a title change would have made sense.
Ask him about 1993. I heard he might have been earmarked to be champ
Amazing story about the knee. I remember that when it first was broadcast. And he threw away the belt because it was broken lol.
Belts?!
We don't need no stinking belts!
One my earliest and most favorite feuds ever. I never knew that Orndorff was the one who really hurt him! #kayefabe
Greg Valentine destroyed the green intercontinental belt and I wondered if he had to pay for the damage out of his paycheck.
No, I'm sure it was booked that way. Greg was a pro. Don't think he'd do anything like that on his own.
I could be wrong, but I think his feud with Rick Martel was even longer than the one with Valentine. The Martel feud started in 1989 and every battle royal they were in saw them going at each other until Tito left in 1993.
Paul Orndorff would have been a great IC Champion.
Definitely! He would have been a worthy World Champion as well !
you mean he would have been.....Wonderful
He would have been even better to have taken the world title from Hogan during their record setting feud.
I always thought there was something odd about Paul Orndoff
I remember the feud, the surgery and the interview. I bought it hook, line, and sinker.
Longest consecutive feud, maybe. But Roman and Brock started feuding in 2015 and carried on almost every year since then.
Wish he would've refurbished it.
I wish you would have asked Tito about Wrestlemania #1 and his masked challenger. I am probably one of the only wrestling fans that knows that the wrestler was Ed Wright, and NOT Buddy Rose. I worked with Ed for a security company. Ed trained me, and he showed me his Wrestlemania ring. He told me who he was and that he wrestled Tito Santana. He proved it to be true after further discussion with him, but not to many fans out there ever knew that Ed Wright existed as a professional wrestler. ✌️
Then I guess buddy rose did the prematch promo for your friend Ed bc it was definitely rose under the hood doing the promo
I would love to make a wager on that. 😒
I was a huge Tito fan. I grew up in Hell's Kitchen, NY which is West Midtown Manhattan. This is where the wrestlers stayed when they came to wrestle at MSG. I got to know many of them including Tito. I once gave him a silver bracelet with his name on it. I didn't buy it. Actually, I stole it from my step-brother whose name was Tito. 😂
that belt to this day would be worth well over 100k!! smh
Actually, the green bet was NOT the original. The original IC title had a red strap. Over the years sweat, alcohol, and various "bodily fluids" had turned it black, at which time the plates were transferred to the green belt.
Yup I remember Muraco with that red belt
Wearing your own T-shirt.
😂
Why was this belt different? You hear stories of guys like Flair having to give security deposits of $25k, etc... in order to travel with their belts. Even if the leather was shot, I'm missing how the belt could be deemed worthless and just "okay" to throw out (??)
I believe that happened in Baltimore
I loved Tito Santana dearly. Listening to his interview is tough, he stutters like he has cognitive issues in trying to find the words to put his sentence together. It hurts to see.
Somewhere Conrad is buying a backhoe to go to Tito's dump to find that belt. He'll sell it for twice the price.
Noo that’s horrible news 😢
Paul was bipolar?
Ohmg grim please please
Strike force is my favorite tag team of all time
Id love to have that belt
Tito, how could you?
Surly no ones stupid enough to throw an old championship belt away even if it is beat up unless it wasn't real gold silver it must have been made of tin or something cheap I'm guessing
Unless he still has it his away somewhere or sold it I hope he did
He was the only one defeat undertaker 92 they were gonna make him champ but he went home
The real rock and super fly snuka had the best fued for the green ic title
OK I have questions isn’t the intercontinental championship belt the property of the WWF and why did Vince McMahon not send Tito Santana the bill to replace the belt if he throw it in the trash? That wasn’t his belt why did he not call Vince McMahon and say hey I have your destroyed belt what do you want me to do with it?
He was given the belt when he received the new one, the green one was retired.
Mr Wonderful was an ass and purposely hurt Chico
Nice job Vince forcing Chico to work 10 days after knee surgery . Vince the slave driver
My money don't jiggle jiggle, it folds
It's chico Santana valentine was the real champion.chico was a big cry baby
seems like a nice guy but not a very intelligent one
When I was single and working in Saudi Arabia during the 80`s people there were addicted to wwa. I share a house with group of friends. They love watching wwa. Tito was their favorite wrestler. He was the most fit, most handsome, and contrary to what you have said he was very smart and he played by the rules. He got defeated only when his opponent would cheat
