@@diluted8 with or without WWE! That would be great! Also a table for 3 with corny, bischoff and shitstain lol, I'd pay WrestleMania type prices to watch that.
You made me laugh talking about John Nord. Im from Robinsdale, MN. And have know the Nord Bros my whole life (Im the Local Bartender). I would never want to Piss John off, But hes so funny and always talking Terry Nord out of fights and trouble. Some things NEVER change. You keep talking, Ill keep listening. Thank you for the opinions and memories.
In the United States, Andre worked first for the AWA before he worked for the WWWF. Edwardo Carpentier who was connected with the AWA brought him into the territory. I saw Andre wrestle Larry Hennig and Lars Anderson in 1971.
Not sure which came first, AWA or Grand Prix, though the two were linked, Verne Gagne was one of the investors in Grand Prix, heck for a while their tag team belts were the old AWA tag team belts (since Maurice and Paul Vachon were former AWA tag team champions as well as co-founders of Grand Prix Wrestling)
My favorite Kayfabe story from the mid 80s. A buddy and I went to the Cincinnati Colosseum to see the WWF and were waiting by the back doors where all the wrestlers enter, trying to get some autographs. It's where I saw Andre in person for the first time. He had to get out of the taxi ass first and when he did the back of the cab sighed in relief and raised up from the ground where it was almost dragging. Anyway, I see this airport van stop about two blocks away and a guy gets out and starts walking. The van pulls up and all the 'good guys' pile out and head in. A few minutes later the guy they had let out gets closer and it was The Iron Sheik. It was taken very seriously back then.
We had a custom van that was blue and gray,it smelled of Giant Funk. I had the interior steam cleaned 4x in a row and the Giant Funk was still there.I was Vince's driver from 88-90. I was summoned by Gorilla that someone wanted to meet me and he walked me over to Andre and we became friends and I drove him in the van a few times. I have a lot of stories of those years and even have pics of me wearing the Winged Eagle and the Million Dollar Man's belt in my apartment. All of the McMahon family couldn't not have been nicer to me and my family.Hell of a 2 year Rollercoaster ride.
"I didn't mind going to the job, it's the *working* part I didn't like" Honestly, same, it's why I consider mysf semi-retired already in my late 30s (plus sustaining a minor neck injury also forced me into reducing my activity levels). I still do odd jobs here and there but I don't answer to a 40/hr week schedule unless there are some *damn* good benefits are included.
We used to do the fight thing in the Army. The platoon sergeant would take you out to the field and have the two men drop their gear, and give them the opportunity to fight. Sometimes we fought, other times we didn’t. But the issue was often finished.
From what I understand TW’s primary job at first was simply to be Andre’s real life valet and his refereeing was simply to keep him on staff during the in between times, maybe his refereeing during Andre’s match as a continuation of that first task
“I didn’t mind going to the job. It’s the working part I didn’t like.” Kinda reminds me of a line Uncle said in Red Dead Redemption 2: “I’m not lazy. I just don’t like working. There’s a difference.”
Taking the politics out of it and all that stuff and simply focusing on wrestling. I think it says all you need to know about a person by who they prefer out of Cornette or Russo. I'm firmly rooted on James E's side of the fence, not only is he extremely knowledgeable about the history of wrestling but he has to be in the top 10 talkers ever. I'd have him at around 3 or 4.
Agree. I don't share cornies views on politics or religion. But the man has nearly 5 decades of wrestling knowledge. I enjoy his podcast episodes when they talk about the old territory days
Good show fellows. God be with Jim Duggan as he battles cancer. Thought I'd hear more about Cornette and Russo. New Jack although I'm sorry he's gone , should have been banned a few times
Listening to this whilst I do some house upkeep and slapping some paint on the walls. I want to know what James does to have skin like that. Mines looks like I've been dragged along a gravel path by horse and cart by comparison 😭
Cornette has challenged Shit Stain multiple times to fight. Shit Stain has placed a restraining order on Corney. Corney sells copies of it on his website.
Dutch and Jimmy Cornette two of the best wrestling minds that I've ever heard. Oley is up there to but man I would love to hear Vince talk about how he books or how he put it all together before he can't tell us
Bipolar is a more modern term for manic-depressive. A lot of people confuse a quick temper with bipolar disorder and they're not the same thing. Having said that, outbursts of anger that are that fast and disproportionate to the situation *can* be symptoms of borderline personality disorder.
I said the same thing you said Dutch about Corny and Russo they need to just fight it out But like old Corny said on his interview one time he's not fighting no body in a real shoot he's going use a weapon I'm going say wat kind on here
when i was a kid the Sam Houston Coliseum i went and watched all the time butch reed vs jyd was the first feud i remember so i was spoiled with top shit
I love Dutch's old school mentality of "box it out and that's the end of it". Serious this not being accepted in today's society is a huge part of societies problem today.
Also Dutch Mantell doesn't get enough credit for his mic skills. Go back and watch the first couple of years of SMW and he was heel color commentator to Bob Caudle's (former JCP commentary and WRAL newsman) straight-laced play by play and IMO they had wonderful chemistry. And eventually Dutch got his own interview segment, "Down and Dirty with Dutch". So glad Dutch has this open platform and can talk on the old days as much as he wants, and to borrow an old quote from Dirty Dutch, he's Dutch Mantell, and you're not! Go Dutchman go!
Jim Cornette would've really been pissed if he found out that back in 1995 SMW was in my hometown of Monticello Ky. and the 2 ring crew guys let us hang out after the show and meet a few of the wrestlers. And they let us help take down the wrestling ring and load it on the trailer.
I watched ductch wrestle many times in nasville always a good match his memphis mic. Skills were of the best 70s and 80s was the best dutch was a natural heat getter I loved 2 hate him 1 of the best
The reason Rampage is failing, they can't stay on the same channel at the same time. One week it's on at 6:30pm Friday, 10pm fri, or Saturday, at whatever time they can do. It has to be the same time same day, every week! Otherwise people are not going to chase it down every week. My opinion.
I said it from the start Vince wasn't coming back, because while he had voting power there were laws that helped the other board members to counter him. Also Dutch is on point Jim vs Russo is a one way street. Considering how Jimmy got caught lying on his podcast on how he put Bischoff in his place about table for 3 his Russo rants could be lies.
40:13 - "They were stuck" out of the 200+ people in WWE's collective roster, they had NO ONE to face Reigns? I highly doubt they didn't have any other guy to step up to main event anything. Why have two brands if you don't have enough guys to fill your main? WWE brought up Rey Mysterio, Eddie Guerrero, Chris Benoit, and they even did it with Big E and Kofi Kingston from the mid-card to the main event and even to World Title status. And most recently, as soon as it was convenient for Lesnar, he comes back, destroys all faith in the person holding the belt, and then we're back at square 1.
I thought Cesaro doing the Bond gimmick was getting over great in the couple weeks he was doing it but they immediately teamed him up with Sheamus with the odd couple shtick which Cesaro was still over during but they turned him heel soon after that and then they were just The team of nations for the next several years and granted they had a bunch of title runs but it seemed like they were always the top tag team when they had absolutely nothing going on in the tag team division.
Any time. Jim cornette. Talks about. Russo……… its the most. Comical Stuff. Ive ever heard……. When he says hes gonna outlive. Russo. So he can piss on his grave. 🤣
I saw Andre squash Jimmy Snuka in mid South along with Terry Taylor, Dick Murdock And Eddie Guerrero with his tag team partner, his brother I think. This was in Russellville Ar. I was proud to pay for the Guerrero's meal at Waffle House after the show.
I'm a big fan of Cornette. He cracks me up that every time he mentions Russo's name he never says Vince or Russo, he simply refers to him as "shit stain" lol. I'd love to see s series of podcasts of Dutch and Corny. That would be gold.
Daniel Bryan didn't get over on his work alone. It wasn't until they ripped off Diego Sanchez's YES gimmick and he started showing some real personality and a character.
34:00 'I see nothing but good things for Matt Riddle" wonder if any one has hipped Dutch to Matt's er...personal issues....Maybe Dutch could set him straight
As I said I don't always watch the episodes in the order they got released. So Dutch gives Mat Riddle a lot of credits in 2023, somehow I would say that did sound different in in 2024, unless I have not mixed this Show up with another one. Also talks different about AEW. Gave them Credits in 2023 but niw he says it's boring because they don't tell stories and Tony is a fan not a boss. While those words are not wrong, I have to say AEW was not different in 2023 than in 2024, except that they hired even more wrestlers and lost some, like Jade Cargill and CM Punk. The only character that really tells Stories is Toni Storm with her 1950is Gimmick. But AFAIK Dutch gave her Credits for that.
Matt Riddle is a great guy and a very good amateur wrestler. I have known him since his days wrestling at Stroudsburg College. He was a very good Collegiate wrestler. And of course he went on to MMA where he had a good run and it would have been outstanding had it not been for douchebags like Dana White standing in his way. The sky is the limit for Matt riddle at WWE. I'm happy to see him making more money with WWE than he ever would have made with the crooked promoters of MMA. ... and I do recognize how incredibly hard it is to believe that people like Dana White are far more corrupt than people like Vince McMahon.
Hard to say Dana “stood in his way”. Riddle is a bad ass, and performed well in UFC, but the dude failed for weed twice in a year. I think weed being banned in anything is silly, but failing two tests in a year isn’t management blocking you it’s self inflicted wounds. But I think his path to WWE was probably long term better. I don’t think he was on his way to being the champ in ufc so he probably wouldn’t have made big money there.
I couldn't have been a wrestler in the territory days those guys drove Long hours for hundreds of miles and then had to have a twenty to thirty minute match hell no
@@OceanbornAngel if they didn't learn from TNA.... $hit$tain could Always try to sneak into something. As they say on Road Dog's podcasts, bong hits and chairshots
I’m not sure I even believe Russo. The fact he refuses to release any names or post a paystub or anything and then just goes on and on about “why would I lie” yada yada always makes it feel fishy.
Jim Duggan scary. Once you have your prostate out cancer comes back it’s not good understand Jim Duggan won’t make it through this one. This is a heartbreaker you guys when you have your prostate fully removed. Your PSA level should be zero if it comes back it’s bad it’s the end.
Pat Patterson needs investigated went both ways. I think Pat needs a lot more discussing I bet you, Pat Patterson forced men to do things they didn’t want to do just to get a break in pro wrestling. Pat was a flaming homosexual and Vince put him in the higher up wwf position he did for one reason

The closed captioning says "Mr. Lauren anus" when Dutch mentions John Laurinaitis. That's hilarious.
Perfect 😅
I think that pretty much sums up how a lot of people in the business feel about Johnny Ace.
Dirty Dutch! I loved watching him throughout the years. Fascinating to hear these stories! I'm a huge Dirty Dutch Mantell fan!

I love how basically every question, Dutch goes on for 10 minutes and then asks, “What was the question?” Seriously love this podcast!
I can't keep up with all these episodes. Dutch is so riveting.

He’s right about the multiple bell rings. I remember that happening when I was younger (OG here 😉). It WAS exciting.
Same. They would ring the bell in Mid South in the 70s until the brawl that ended the main event cleared out.
This is at the start of the show. I'll comment when the show is over. I seen Cornette vs Russo , so this has to be my first stop!

Well put Dutch....lol
I’d absolutely pay to see Cornette and Russo locked in a shipping container to see who walks out the next day…
Slip Jim a "foreign object" before he walks in.
Nah, I'd rather here them do a podcast. 2 senior citizens fighting isn't something I'd pay to see.
Jim Cornette would walk into that container with a baseball bat in one hand and a jukebox playing the Midnight Express theme music in the other 😂
@@thequietman95 it would have to be a tennis rackets. Sting already has the baseball bat.
@@thequietman95 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣.
This show is fascinating in the context and aftermath of what happened at AEW with Kenny Omega, The Young Bucks+, CM Punk.
Vince Russo should have never been hired. That’s the thing. Dutch, and everyone in TNA knew this.
4:29 that doesn’t sound so good to drink, but who is the driver, for Andre? Did nobody get in trouble for drinking and driving back then ever?
Are there no e-book versions? I couldnt find either book of Dutch on Google books
I couldn't find e-books on Amazon either

Cornette has challenged Shit Stain multiple times to fight. Shit Stain has placed a restraining order on Corney. Corney sells copies of it on his website.
Jim has cucked and punked shitstain so many times Shitstain is a keyboard warrior safe behind his screen
Poor Bobby Eaton was George Gulas' partner . Maybe thats what honed Eaton's skills ? He had to work to make up for Gulas' shortcomings
Dutch is very easy to listen to. He's intelligent and tells it like he sees it. I'd really like to hear Dutch and Honky do a show with James.
Number One podcast that isn't Jim Cornette
Dutch and Jimmy Cornette two of the best wrestling minds that I've ever heard. Oley is up there to but man I would love to hear Vince talk about how he books or how he put it all together before he can't tell us
