Jim Ross screwed Buff Bagwell. Never forget.
Buff screwed buff!! Judy shaved his bag-well 😂
He defo got screwed
"So Buff what are your thoughts on the big bang?"
"Uh, you know that was another stepping stone."
Buff was over as he'll with the ladies lol. Cool character
Jim ross is a good guy on here then bashing him to death on Steve Austin's podcast
That's because Jim Ross didn't bury him yet on WWE 24/7.
That’s because Buff was still hoping he could get a job at wwf/wwe. By the time he was bashing Ross, Ross already bashed him and Buff knew going back to work at wwe wasn’t going to happen. So he didn’t care at that point. Notice he didn’t really say anything bad about anyone. He wasn’t trying to burn bridges. But today after he realized the bridge was already burnt, he said what he actually felt.
Brian pillmin was way better then stone cold he even admitted that brian would have gone far if he didnt pass
34:15 "What happened with me and Scottie WERE" wut
Imagine if the 2001 Buff Bagwell met the 2022 Buff Bagwell. The 2001 Buff Bagwell would of probably smacked the shit out of him
He seems so much mentally healthy at this point in time. It’s sad to see him struggle now.
Yes but you can tell he's on opiates here also. Notice the scratching and adjusting of the hat because hiss head's itching..
@@DavidMccallister65 u dragged it 😂
Yo wassup Nikateen
Nigateen
He's doing much better now, clean for 2 years, also got a RUclips channel going on
Love Buff. Listening to this makes me realize when people say wrestlers are all about “egos” and “politics”. I think most of them are that way simply because their protecting their side of the business. If you got a guy like Buff who was red hot at the end of WCW lose to Big Vito (who I enjoyed seeing in the ring) devalues Buff’s character thus hurting the business. Anyone following me?
Buff may not have known it at the time, but we did. He was over like Rover and the bookings didn’t matter. He was still the stuff 💪🏼💪🏼
But yeah, I know what you’re saying. You can’t keep killing his character by losing to “less over” opponents bc he was so over. Many signs for him every TV taping
John Wayne won an academy award for True Grit.
lol. I was gonna say that too.
🤣😂😂😂😂😂😂😂🤣
Lol that's true. I'll say though, it did come at the end of his career. And I wouldn't say True Grit was as worthy of an Academy Award as his earlier films. Of all the John Wayne films I never think of True Grit. The Coens redid it and it put a bit more light on it but of all Wayne's films I would forget he won an Academy Award for that also.
@@madamefeast4824 STFU ! The point is Buff said Wayne NEVER won one. That's it. GFY!
Very interesting Buffs opinion on WCW under Russo.
Imagine if Vince Russo looked after the undercard/midcard, and Bischoff looked after the main event scene. Could have been money.
Was too bad he got fired from WWE like he did. They should have just moved him to mid card as punishment. I feel like we missed out by not having him.
Agreed I feel the same with Lex Luger and others sucks us Wrestling Fans had to suffer.
I agree with what Buff said, I think people got in Mcmahons ear and he got cold feet. And sabotaged the WCW angle. By having them wrestle in a anti WCW audience, and not having Booker T slap the fans hands like he always did, not having Buff do his entrance like he did in WCW and do his heel stuff. Then firing him 2 weeks later. Looking back it all kinda seems that way.
They could have pushed him, his talent is so high! 100% commercial wrestler fans loved him
William T. Ratamacue I agree, he could have probably tried to do that. But I believe ego was in the way, I'd say both WWE and Buff. He probably thought he would be hired back, but at the time there were alot of anti WCW people that still held a grudge against WCW for the Monday night wars and almost going out of business, so they didn't treat the guys all fair.
See guys like Buff 100% needed a WCW or an ECW type federation.
WWE treated all the WCW like shit. 15 years later they still do. They bring Sting in and have him loose both matches he is in before hurting him so bad he could not wrestle anymore. As a southern wrestling fan I hate what has happened to pro wrestling. Even the WWE fans hate WWE now.
Brian Rose your 100 PERCENT RIGHT BRIAN!!!!
Truth. Absolute truth.
Its all about how weird the characters are instead of badasses. Like we have to feel them emotionally or some sh*t. Understand them smh
The Attitude / Monday night Wars / Nwo, Era will never be surpassed.. Ever!! There was so much talent!! Last of the greats.. And 1000000% agree with about Sting. That power bomb turnbuckle spot with Rollins was so fkin stupid. I don't know why Sting would even agree to that. And look at the videos of Sting when he first came in and was with Hunter at S.S ..He was moving good. They had so much potienal with a Sting run. Especially possibly something with Taker. They fked that up bad.
Of course they did they won the war as case to the victor goes the spoils.
Buff is a good guy to his fans, that stuff matters bro.
1:03:31 Shane Helms incident
Buff was very talented and always entertaining. He got a bad shake in WWE and deserved way better. And if the reason why he was fired is because his match on Raw was so bad, why didn't Booker get fired too? It definitely seems like somebody in the WWE at the time had an agenda, and didn't want Bagwell there.
Buff & Steiner were great 2gether; one of the best duo's in Pro-Wrestlin eva!
#nWo4Life ~ G. + MCL +
This buff and the current buff don't look like the same person
The difference in 01 interview and recent interviews is night and day . Not getting 5yr+ run with wwe destroyed him
True! In this interview he said Pat Patterson put their match together, then later interviews he says he never meet Pat Patterson. So idk what to believe 🤷♂️😂
@0:10
Interviewer - What kind of athlete were you as a teenager?
Buff - Ugh, I hated school!
Lmfao Idk why I found that as funny as I did
Buff Bagwell won WCW World Tag Team Championship 5 times with 4 partners. 2 Cold Scorpio, The Patriot (x2), Scotty Riggs, and Shane Douglas.
Didn't he win it with Luger?
@@1roundleft821 They wrestled The Natural Born Thrillers (Sean O'Haire and Chuck Palumbo) for the WCW World Tag Team Championship, but never won them.
Saw him in AC at a bar in early 2000s, Was a great dude to hang out with. Couldn’t have been a nicer guy.
He seems like the kind of guy who would be almost impossible not to like unless you were jealous of him.
He looks like a young Tiger King!
What happened to Bagwells voice? His voice is raspy now
Age...
Drugs
Car accident
Buff bagwell was awesome. I don't care what anyone says. Back even when he was a face he was great. His talent is undeniable if you watched him as a young Marcus. It's definitely a shame people didn't get to see more of him.
We saw enough. As did WWF, which is why he got his walking papers.
@@user-qx5nk6qg2b lol. But…but…he doesn’t care what anyone says… we’re just supposed to care what he says! :-)
@@datacipher lol Right?
It will never come out or be admitted but I wouldn't be surprised if Vince didn't pay Russo to sabotage WCW.
BUFF was a great comedy character. would have been cool to see him vs. Goldust
Chattingesque ??
yeah, he was a goofball, wasn't he ?
He's way too high on himself to ever be involved with the storyline like that. Even though I agree with you it would be pretty cool to see them all interact
The ladies loved him. Great heel
Sean waltman was 19- 20 in 93', Buff!
I use to work for his family...they owned a lumber yard and his mom ( Judy) is more tuff than mark ever was.
of course you did
Yuck, obviously you’ve never seen his mom.
@@JD-di5qp we've all seen his mom. She was on a forklift lol
@@billblaski9523 She WAS the forklift. Everybody on the yard had to jump on the forklift at least once a shift.
Did she call that SOB Jim Ross?
This dude was so underrated
and so high on somas lol i love bagwell tho
joe winkler you sound jealous and hypocritical 😂😂😂😂
cause he is
Underrated. He was a never was. He was a mid carder. At best.
Underrated? I here that about 90% of the wrestlers from this era. He was rated about right. An entertaining and solid mid carder, great look but lacked something.
Buff got screwed. Him and Virgil should be in the HOF.
Man if youv watched 1 buff shoot youv watched them all he literally says all this 15 years later in 2016
He's a straight shooter
Truth isn’t suppose to change
What happened to his voice, it's sounds completely different now from what it was here
beware of organized gangstalking!!!
It’s simple to see what got him fired. His MOUTH!
318dmoore false
FACTS.. HE'S A FLUNKY.. STILL IS..
Buff was N is, the stuff!
Was this interview before Bagwell saw Jim Ross do his round table comments?
Yes.
@@WCWFanForever the round table thing happened 10 years later
Buff saying that WCW had never been to Tacoma was incorrect. Spring Stampede 99 was at the Tacoma Dome, I was there. I do agree that they should have saved the Booker T / Buff match to the following week's Raw in Atlanta
I was a big mark for Buff back in ‘98-‘99. I was probably 7 or 8 years old and I remember saying to myself, “I wanna look like that guy when I get older” 🤙🏼
I was 12 back then. Played paintball with him at the Gibraltar trade center in Detroit one time
I was 14-15 and I thought the same. Dude is jacked.
The natural born thrillers did get booed they had some heat
Great interview.. Love Buff!
Question, answer. Question, answer. Is this an interview or a quiz? If you have to tell guys “We’re gonna talk about that later” ten times, you’re not an interviewer. The job is about getting people to open up and uncover what’s lying behind dusty doors. That doesn’t happen if you keep yanking them back to the entrance so you can stick to your unimaginative question schedule.
Him and Norton are one of my favorite tag teams ever
Vicious and Delicious
@@hezamachine greatest tag team name Ever!
That tag team name makes them sound like cellmates.
@@hezamachine maybe if you're gay
Buff is the stuff, is too tough, and the girls just can't get enough 😈
Buff should been world championships world champion
You know Flair, Sting and AA but you don't know Magnum TA
Yes
Look at his latest videos. His voice is so raspy it’s very hard to understand him. It’s like tommy Morrison the pro boxer who was good looking and spoke normal then got hooked on drugs and his voice turned very raspy like an old man. Unrecognizable in about 10 years but buff is not on meth or hardcore drugs to our knowledge he’s just on painkillers that don’t cause any of those effects unless he was smoking meth or crack then it would make sense but he sounds terrible and truffles to talk. One part u can tell he’s heavily medicated but still doesn’t explain the severe voice change. Sad to see him fat and out of shape. He was just called out to fight and he didn’t do anything after he said he would. I’m sure in shape prime buff would of fought the guy but he was even losing his balance just standing there. I feel bad for him. To have a body like that to just give up is awful. I broke my back and I’m in great shape. I never give up. I hope he gets better and back in the gym. Ur in less pain when ur body is stronger and it’s helped me very day.
I miss hearing Buff's voice like this
What is interesting is, in this video, in 2001, he is not that upset or surprised about being fired from WWE. And he explains Jim Ross's attitude toward his firing in a different way. It's only in later years that he is so bitter about it.
@@I_LOVE_THE_SUNCOASTthat’s because he’s still hoping they’ll hire him down the road.
@@Spooky_515 in 2001, yes...after that, it's such a different story. And it's sad that, afterwards, he just blames everyone but himself for being fired. True. there were unfair factors involved, but some of it, he did to himself. with his attitude. What a poor sport.
This isn't bad at all I have to say Buff seems more like his Marcus Bagwell character from the early to mid 90's when he was with Scorpio than Buff.
This buff was cool.
Always liked Block buster aa a finish
20 isn't that young. Hayes and Gordy were 17...oh yeah and they drew money.
jndds “wrestling? You have a hard enough time wrestling your wee wee out your trousers to take a leak”😂
Gordy was 13
Its kinda ironic watching back these and one thing he said that jumped out at me was the alot of guys got there gimmick confused with themselves and he didn’t fast forward he only responded if u called him buff he literally believes that who he is
R f video rules!
Prime example of wwe shitting on wcw guys
He had great talent with wcw but when he joined the nwo he fucked up was just a cheerleader to Scott Steiner
This is a great interview!! Both questions and answers
Buff, were you aware of the "cream team"
with pat patterson and vince you can always get a push through the backdoor.
Is that how HBK got everything he wanted?
Why was his voice not as rough back then?
Is this a Buff Bagwell? Or Scott Steiner being interviewed??? Lol
"Thoughts on workin with".....jeezus get a new opening line.
buff was a prick when i met him in india
He looks mildly soma'd here.
He actually was a good wrestler early in his career, during the early 90s. He lost his agility with steroid use. Then built his character more with the breakthrough of the attitude era in the late 90s. He would then rely more on his looks then his work in the ring.
Steroids wasn’t the thing holding him back it was his neck injury.
Steroids takes agility away?...wow somebody should really tell all those gold medalists n pro Athletes....fuckn dumb ass!
Buff reminds me of my older brother and his friends
Thoughts on _______
90% of the questions
Opened ended questions like that lead to better interviews. Learn human communication skills, kid.
@ lol you thumb up your own comments
John Wayne won an Academy Award for True Grit.
This is before Buffs head was too far up his own ass, atleast that's how he portrays himself here. May not have been WWE material but could've been a star elsewhere imo.
Check out a FRESH episode with Buff here:ruclips.net/video/qmPAXMGIhtw/видео.html
What happened to his voice? He sounds so normal here. Does 15 years (going off his SAS appearance in 2015) really do that to you?
These guys are all coked out
Brent Devlin have you ever used cocaine? Or any drugs? There is nothing here that suggests he’s doing blow. If anything, it’s painkillers/heroin. He’s not speeding.
Right?!!I didnt c anything. Wtf is he talking bout?
Pain pills
@@myquest666420 and how would you know that
Its mad if you watch one buff Bagwell shoot youv watched them all
Thats whats supposed to happen, its call telling the truth
@@bowade9332 exactly
Shane ribbed you bro
That was cool of RF allowing you to post this, not that i want to take away from your channel but you would think it would be a good idea for RF to put some of these early shoots that no longer make much money onto RUclips and get an income stream no matter how small from them. I'm sure if word got out they would do reasonable and would get people watching and they would be a good way of marketing their more recent work
Hi I did Pay a License Fee to Post this along with the Other Clips I do plan do to a few more but Highspots and RF Video still make money off the Old Shoots on DVD and Download. I saw this Buff Shoot sell on Ebay 3 times already people still buy them to post the whole Shoot like this is not easy nor is it cheap because for RF and High if there Product is viewed for Free on RUclips they feel its losing money which is true but with said if the Price is Right you can post it but I do understand what you mean for them to post it them selfs but there still making tons on Downloads and DVDs.
I very much appreciate the time and costs that you have lost to post these shoots, subscribed and looking forward to more.
Thanks Appreciate it
@@stuartjambo8541 plastic prods
@@mac10watp31 Plastic prods with major honours unlike Sevco
He looks young and the is different. Now he looks different and the voice is deeper. He still cool I was a fan of him in the s90 I miss wcw
This interview is for sure old. "Me and Jim go way back". Yeah right.
ThaRiddler w
You can tell by his looks n when he mentioned Benoit, he talked about him in the present tense
Bag is a legit great guy..
A DSGB like myself💪😎
But I can see him scratching a lot from the opiates😬
Buff looking fucked up off some pain killers here. He has admitted to being a big pain killer and soma user during this time.
Comparing himself to john wayne level yeah ok lol
It’s like listening to jerry jarrett
young tiger king
what month is this
June
The greatest example of all time of believing your own hype
John Wayne won best actor.....
Love buff bagwell
54:52 this is SO true about the Natural Born Thrillers. Those guys weren't over in the slightest and were presented like stars 😂
But O Haire and Jindrak were very talented and you cant take that away, so I ask you, what would you do if you had 2 ultra talented stars?
@@daredevilofdallas i would build them. Not present them as the finished article and expose them when they weren't ready for it. I'd still present them on TV and give them in-ring and promo time, but not to the extent where they're walking out of limos and being presented like Ric Flair or Hulk Hogan when they were green as goose shit.
you should upload the jim cornette shoot from 2000
That's on youtube
Did this fool really say that him and Scott Steiner were in competition for body development? Man gtfoh! 😆
Buff was a big as Steiner don’t be fooled
20:20
Hes high as f***
How do you know that
He had a pain pill addiction
John Wayne best actor True Grit 1969...What he should have said was Bagwell NEVER drew a dime. NEVER!
jndds that's a lie
Look at the fan signs and you'll know you are wrong. There were some Buff fans.
Tons of buff fans..i rem being in college. And everyone was obsessed with buff n papa pump skit...shit they on posters on walls. Most only watched for them. As kids never seen anybody looking that huge.

Did he really have him mom call in sick for him???
Paul Howell - Jim Ross said he did, he says he didn’t that jim is lying. You decide who you want to believe. We’ll never know the truth for sure.
Buff the stuff. LOL. More like Puff the dump. Hes not even a has been. Hes a never was
You never was either
No way this was 5yrs ago...holy shit compared to how he looks now..this looks like 15yrs ago.
Lol who said this was 5 years ago this shoot was done in 02-03 if I remember right since I don’t remember if he talks about TNA.
Dummie. Only a moron would think the date something was uploaded to RUclips must mean that's when it was recorded too. 🤦♂
This was filmed in 2001 not longer after his WWF release, it literally says 2001 in the video title.
