Yeah, I lived near Pine Bluff, Arkansas then. He had a match coming up there, and his promo was non-stop shit talking about PB... like he couldn't believe he was being forced to actually go anywhere near it. We were dying laughing, because he was mostly right.
@@DoktorRotwang Yeah people mostly laugh when wrestlers shit talk our home towns lol. UNLESS they shit talk our sports teams. You definitely dont go there hahaha.
Damn, even Duggan couldn't keep from laughing at his own bullshit!! 😂😂 Like any real pro, however, he was able to quickly get it together and finish the promo.
@@4Wayee uh-oh, the soy police arrived. Not even the fact that "Mexican" is a nationality, not a race, can't stop officer Wayee from intervening when someone's having fun.
@@at0micwerew0lf I was living in Leesville as well during that time. I use to watch Mid South on Channel 5 every Sunday morning at 9:00. Great memories
I guarantee one of those laughs off camera was Chavo, LOL! I read when they would do promos back in the 80s like that, they would all come in and spend the day doing them all at once for everyone they were going. And they would all try and out do the other somehow. :D
I used to bus dishes at this restaurant in New Orleans. They had the double doors that swung out from the middle going into the dish pit. I'd open the door with the full tub and do the Hacksaw hooooe as i opened the door, much to the amusement and sometimes anger of the dishwasher (when he was dozing off) 😂😂
Little known fact: Comedian Freddy Lewis once pitched a movie idea to Duggan. It was called, “The Mid South Hacksaw Massacre”. It was never made. xoxo The Clarences
A big part of my childhood in the 80s and 90s was watching pro wrestling on TV. A big part of my adulthood has been realizing all my childhood heroes did coke.
I still can't believe how good a lot of these wrestlers were before they went to the WWF. Junkyard Dog, Jim Duggan, Butch Reed, etc. These guys were so much better than their WWF days.
Awesome! Boy, I sure hope WWE doesn't try to erase him now for such racially insensitive comments. This was only 36 years ago, we gotta hold everyone accountable now!
I always love it when wrestlers can make the camera operators crack up. That’s when you know your promo is on fire.
Mid 80's Mid-South roster was incredible
You know you have a good one when you pop the boys behind the camera.
I've heard people talk about how heel Duggan was on a completely different level
and they weren't lying 🤣

Duggan couldn’t possibly stay a heel giving promos like that
Back when Wrestlers weren't required to read scripted promos.
Yea I mean... on one hand that can lead to gold. On the other.... well you get some racist shit like this.
Wasn't considered racist back the. I loved Speedy Gonzales and the Frito Bandito, btw.😁
@@4Wayee you trippin bro. No racism here. Chavo IS Mexican. Straight fact and not even deeply insulting.
You would have hated the things that Piper said about Guerrero and his family to get heat when they were in the California promotion then.
@@4Wayee uh-oh, the soy police arrived. Not even the fact that "Mexican" is a nationality, not a race, can't stop officer Wayee from intervening when someone's having fun.
Truly a classic 80's promo!
I always thought they exaggerated the size of these dudes, but Hacksaw looks massive here
Duggan looks like he's 6"3 and 280 lbs.
@@ricosalvaje5802 The other guy is seated..geniuses.
@flashinthepan3273 Duggan is a massive dude. Take a look at him in mid south wrestling you brilliant minded fool.
So that’s where Martel got his fragrant “Arrogance”. 😁
TBF Shawn is a cockroach. 🤣🤣
I remember this promo on Channel 3 KTBS from Shreveport. My grandpa ever started laughing at Duggan.
🍺⚡🍺 I was in Leesville/New Llano(basically Leesville)in those years. Mid South had the best TV and live shows!!
@@at0micwerew0lf I was living in Leesville as well during that time. I use to watch Mid South on Channel 5 every Sunday morning at 9:00. Great memories
@@Edward-ib9ub Damn, I imagine thats not a very big town. I bet you two ran into each other and didnt even know it lol.
@@erikstorm8935 It's a pretty small town. We probably did 😊
That's where I watched Midsouth. KTBS ABC 3
Even Reeser can't even hold it together lol.
If the bug spray don't get him, the Taco sauce will!😆😆🤣🤣🤣
Lmao! Despite what some say now, one of the best talkers as well as tough men in the game! Man that was priceless!
I saw Hacksaw Duggan in a store where I work about 2 months ago.... super cool guy
2:40 Even Duggan had to laugh at "hot taco sauce" 😆
0:12
The promo is crazy!
Best part is Reeser holding the mic.
You could not keep a guy like this a heel for long doing promos like this😂. This guy is awesome
This version of Jim Duggan reminds me of Big Lebowski if he was tough and mean
and on more coke
Yeah, well, that's like your opinion man
2:45 -- It's funny on its own, but when even Duggan started to crack I lost my shit.
You can hear all the guys laughing in the background
The physical build of wrestlers is just a whole other genome from the rest of us ! Hacksaw is ENORMOUS !
I guarantee one of those laughs off camera was Chavo, LOL! I read when they would do promos back in the 80s like that, they would all come in and spend the day doing them all at once for everyone they were going. And they would all try and out do the other somehow. :D
Man! I haven't seen ol' Hacksaw Jim Duggan in 40 years! He still looks the same! Get 'em Saw!
I used to bus dishes at this restaurant in New Orleans. They had the double doors that swung out from the middle going into the dish pit. I'd open the door with the full tub and do the Hacksaw hooooe as i opened the door, much to the amusement and sometimes anger of the dishwasher (when he was dozing off) 😂😂
Tiger Conway, Jr. Wow... I haven't heard that name in a while! 🙂
Reminds me of Bruiser Brody’s loud , matter of fact promo style.
Sam Bennett Brody helped Duggan out early in his career.
Little known fact: Comedian Freddy Lewis once pitched a movie idea to Duggan. It was called, “The Mid South Hacksaw Massacre”. It was never made. xoxo The Clarences
This kind of stuff is why I always loved Hacksaw Duggan
If I recall they used a brief clip of this for Duggan’s “In America” video.
Jeff Lynne is looking jacked!
My fam is from Mexico & this is friggin hilarious😂 I lmao'd at the hot sauce🤣
@smileyOr if you're from Mexico I'm Joe Biden. People from Mexico don't use the word "friggin" dumb dumb.
@@maxv6837 Reported
I love the old school analog and tv graphics ..
How much cocaine was used before that promo?
ALL OF IT!!! 😂😂🤣🤣
When you're laughing at your own heel promo it's gotta be funny.
We need more announcers like Reiser, for better or worse
Back when the promos was Great. None of this "That's Offensive to whomever". Great Promo.
A big part of my childhood in the 80s and 90s was watching pro wrestling on TV. A big part of my adulthood has been realizing all my childhood heroes did coke.
We don't need a wall. Just need Hacksaw's spray.
Duggan is a national treasure
We needed this heel Hacksaw in WWE
He stole Rick the Model Martel's "Arrogance" spray! LOL,,,
That's what I thought
@NYGreek74 and your people stole all of Eygpt knowledge
@@foreverunsaved6661 malaka thats your being rebuttal is pointing out a typo. no wonder Greece is bankrupt . too many Malakas like you
This was years before Rick Martel
@@bigkahuna3534 😂 and Egyptians stole architecture from the Mexicans
Was trying to sell those pump sprayers ? I thought it was the shopping channel 😂
I remember Rick Martel used one of those with his fragrance lmao. Gorgeous George too, seems very classic wrestling prop 😂
"HOGAN! I'll beat ya up!" That was another good promo from Duggan when Hogan joined the nWo.
Comedian Freddy Lewis was one of the people behind the camera laughing. He hated Guerrero.
Hacksaw looking the jacked up member of the Bee Gees
Not only is it funny, its true.
Hilarious that the background guys are audibly laughing.
Damn. Everybody's corpsing in this one. In front and behind the camera. Good stuff.
I'll be there !
🪳🪳
Dugan does it again lol
That's priceless!
Thanks Brian. Just heard this on 605, lol
I still can't believe how good a lot of these wrestlers were before they went to the WWF. Junkyard Dog, Jim Duggan, Butch Reed, etc. These guys were so much better than their WWF days.
Thanks for this TGBL. From a loyal 605er since episode 4
Duggan is free styling his ass off lol!
"What's a script?"
Wait a minute...that looks like Adrian's perfume sprayer.
Watching this promo makes you realize how little personality the guys today have.
I loved Hacksaw in Mid-South , you are right he had a ton of personality . was fun to watch.
So true👍
Bunch of fruit fairies nowadays
@@walterburch2341 Let's see you get in there, chromedome.
@@skyatollah2skyharder276 it's not like the good ole days, all I'm saying
Damn. Duggan was really looking to draw heat there.
2:45 Bowden losing it at the hot taco sauce nearly caused Duggan to crack
"Hack-Staw....Duggan" 2:33
Well this certainly would have been frowned upon today huh... 😂
And no drug testing! Coke for everyone!
HOT TACO SAUCE
Hacksaw is hilarious in this promo.
Chavo was wrestling this early in the days? Wow didn't know that,
It was his dad. Chavo Guerrero Sr. Chavo Jr was born in 1970 and started wrestling around 1994, I think.
Oh ok that makes sense lol
Awesome! Boy, I sure hope WWE doesn't try to erase him now for such racially insensitive comments. This was only 36 years ago, we gotta hold everyone accountable now!
The president says ignorant things all the time. Hacksaw should be fine lol besides this is badass
old school racism @ its best lolol best promos the 80s
This is awesome
Lol I went to that event. We went every time Watts came to Biloxi.
Hacksaw is the man!!!
Before the 2 x 4.i had no idea hacksaw had a spray can.kinda like when rick the model martel had Arrogance.it was suppose to spray fragrance😂😂😂😂😂
1983, the best year for WCCW
Even though this is not WCCW.
Mid-South Wrestling (Tv Show) 3/19 or 26/83 Hacksaw (Jim) Duggan promo for Saturday, April 2, 1983 Biloxi Mississippi: Mississippi Gulf coast coliseum 💯
"HOOOOOOOOOOOO"!!!!!!!
this is more of an snl skit then pro wrestling
I don't know why "you can't find us in the yellow pages, its a new listing" popped me
Taco sauce, too funny.🤣🤣🤣
Who booked two Hacksaws on the same show?
Hacksaw Dugan v Hacksaw Butch Reed turned into a hot angle in its own right.
LMAO. The announcer and guys behind the camera shouldn't be laughing at a heel's promo!
Good ole days mid south wrestling.
He get that spray bottle from Ric "The Model" Martel?
That is hysterical, but the social media of this was done today..,😂
Reser is awesome 😂
Back when wrestling was not PC
Legend
1:24 Can't do that nowadays lmao
Jim had a big belly here.
That's not Duggan..... That's Jackson from 'Bloodsport'.
That's Hank Williams Jr. "Bocephus!"
I am huge fan of hacksaw jim duggan on wcw
Awesome
I worked with his sister back in the 80's, she was not as crazy as hacksaw Jim but close.....
Sounds like a great show! 😁
He looks like Big John Studd here ..
I remember Hacksaw but not Wild Hacksaw.😮😱🤯
Man o man when promos were edgy. Hacksaw would have gotten fired now a days lol
Did my right speaker go out?
I thought hacksaw only got goofy in the wwe. Seems like he was pretty goofy in mid south.
Was that Jim Duggan or Geoff Lynne ?
Why is Duggan wasting a good canister of Rick Martel’s Arrogance cologne??
