John Tenta used to talk to fans like me on an old wrestling message board during his battle with cancer. He was very humble, polite, smart, funny, and generous with his time. A consummate gentleman. It was surreal to remember being a child and believing he broke Hulk Hogan's ribs, to being able to communicate with him directly in the twilight of his life when I was in my mid 20's. I shed a few tears when he passed. RIP.
Yeah it makes me feel old af when I look at the attitude era for example, and I always thought of the Undertaker round then as a really old dude. But I'm older now than he was then. He was only in his 30s. In 1995 the undertaker was 30. That's just insane to me. I'm such an old git now. And yeah Earthquake looked a lot older than he was. The receding hairline was part of it but even if he had a full head of hair, he looked like a big old nasty bastard. He was so good at his craft. Because in real life he was by all accounts one of the absolute nicest guys in the business, almost too nice. He could fuck you up if he wanted, in a legit shoot fight. But he didn't, cos he was a nice guy. Reminds me of Andre. So the fact he seemed so big and nasty is a testament to how good he was at pro wrestling both in and out of the ring. Tenta was big on family too, he was apparently the best dad in the world. One of his kids a few months back posted some family photos to Reddit and did a kind of Ask Me Anything thread. And his kid talked about how lovely of a dad he was. Never afraid to show emotion and tell them he loves them. A real man. Taken from the world far too soon.
Being 13 years old at the time of Golgas debut, I had no idea it was Earthquake. Should've known growing up on WWF. Great to see Quake get some love here. Bret Hart said nice things about him in his book.
I wasn't aware either, but I don't see how anyone could've guessed he was Golga. He lost a significant amount of weight, cut his hair, wore a mask, and didn't ever do promos so we could hear his voice.
EARTHQUAKE!!!!!!!!!!! Hell Yeah!!! This is what I'm talking about. Earthquake in his prime was an absolute monster. The "squashing Hulk's ribs" angle was legendary.
Definitely one of the most underrated and under dicussed big men and in general pro-wrestlers of all time. He was a 400+ pound powerhouse but can throw awesome dropkicks and move like someone half his weight. He had such great ring presence and was just a likeable guy. I always loved when he would jump in the ring and make the ref bounce of their feet. True legend. RIP
I know his run was short, but I could listen to Quake stories all day. Thank you for finally giving him an episode. And it's nice to hear he was one of the good ones.
As a kid, I really like the natural disasters. I know, I know but I thought tugboat/Typhoon was awesome back then. I’ve always been a fan of Earthquake and I’m glad he was a great guy.
Glacier was in aew battle Royal?! Papa shango is on the network all the time just not as papa shango and val Venus is selling weed on the Internet you can go see them all still but you want the idea of a nostalgia battle royal cause the idea is better then the actual thing normally
Awww back when the product was not only watchable and enjoyable but you could remember the angles for weeks and months and years it wasn't a golden era for nothing
My first ever WWF show was a house show in the Philadelphia spectrum October 19,1991 and the last match was a WWF tag title match with the natural disasters vs the Legion of doom. And Earthquake was a MONSTER heel in 1990,1991 WWF. I also got to slap his hand at a house show in 1992 when the disasters took on The nasty boys or money Inc. R.I.P big John Tenta you were my friend
You make me feel young as my first wwe show was capital carnage main event was stone cold vs Kane vs undertaker vs mankind with big bossman and vinnie Jones as ring enforcers I remember Austin Vinnie jone mankind and earl hebner doing the Austin beer spots with the all stood on the second rope in the corner to send us home
Fook Yea!!!! it's the "Quake-Muffin!!!!" or Mudslide!!!! Loved when he'd flex on Hogan and Sting give'em a "Gun-Show" Shame he never got a monster heel title run.
1:19:27 John Tenta's tiger tattoo. Tenta himself wrote on a message board that the tattoo was in honor of the LSU mascot. Tenta attended college at LSU. Tenta further wrote that while he thought the Shark character in WCW was stupid, it didn't make any sense to have a tiger tattoo with a shark gimmick. Tenta wanted to do his best to make the character work, so he had the tiger tattoo covered up with a shark tattoo instead.
Great episode. Earthquake and I share the same birthday. The Lumberjack gimmick sounds interesting because if you went that route he straight up would have been Bear Hugger from Super Punch Out.
Earthquake John Tenta is from my City where I grew up (SURREY BC Canada). I saw Earthquake at the Surrey Mall (GUILDFORD Mall) in the Food Court eating, I wanted to go up to him but I didn't want to disturb him but still wanted to meet him, He saw me and could tell I wanted to meet him as I was pacing back n forth, He waved me over and I said "Hey Earthquake yer awesome yada dada" lol he was eating like 10 (ORANGE JULIUS) HOT DOGS & even offered me one after I got his Autograph. His wife was like 4 foot 8 and he is 450+ Pounds I was like woah!!! He was so nice, RIP big man u left to early. It's weird my Favourite WRESTLEMANIA (6) has the Most Deceased Wrestler's.
This was a great episode. John might have not had long first run as the Earthquake but he made the most of his time there. It felt like his first run was 5 years. When Conrad said it was only 3 1/2 years, I was like no way. You have to be kidding me. It honestly didnt feel like he was there from 89-93. He accomplished a lot. Awesome look back at Earthquake.
I fast forward the episode to the end, wait for that add to play out, hit the replay episode or refresh arrow in the center of the screen and then you can watch it add free.
1:10:00 - Not so. Natural Disasters were faces around this time. Typhoon did wrestle Undertaker at a house show, that was advertised during their weekend show, and Undertaker and Paul Bearer even did a promo on it.
They didn't last long enough, and they were an average "big man" team. They were much better as singles wrestlers, especially Big Boss Man. Besides, in 1989, the Brain Busters entered the WWF and it was a given that they would be given a huge push in the WWF tag team division. Brain Busters had much better matches with Demolition as well.
After listening to 217 episodes, are these Meltzer reviews from the period when these matches took place or are they more recently reviewed by him after a rewatch?
Really liked Earthquake as a kid. I was supposed to see Natural Disasters vs Money Inc at a house show in Philly. At the last minute the card changed and Ted Dibiase was wrestling the Ultimate Warrior and Earthquake wrestled IRS in a singles match. I remember going in thinking Earthquake/IRS was kind of a throwaway match but then being amazed at how big Earthquake was. He got an awesome pop when he did the jump up and down shaking the ring thing before the match and it stayed with me
As a brit it makes me chuckle every time Conrad says "chat me up". Because in the uk that means basically to flirt with someone to try and get their number or even go home with them that night for "coffee", etc. It just sounds like Conrad is really really into Bruce and just keeps dropping hints that Bruce doesn't pick up
To get rid of ads play the video for 10 seconds, then with your finger slide to a couple seconds before the video ends. Then go back to the where you skipped and the ads will be gone.
In 1991 @ PNE Coliseum in Vancouver I was Front Row for a WWF House Show & in the MAIN EVENT was "HULK HOGAN" vs "EARTHQUAKE". Earthquake threw Hogan outside of the ring & Stupid Me (I was 12) I went Under the Barricade & "Punched/Jabbed" Hogan in Ribs told him to get up and go Kill Earthquake, Hogan's face was was like "WTF BROTHER" a big ass Security Guard picked me up like a Spider with one hand and was gonna escort me out of the building but a TON of Fans started Booing & Throwing thing's into our direction so another Security guy (Probably the Head Dude) said something to the guard that plucked me off Hogan and said "YOU SIT DOWN IN YOUR SEAT AND DONT FUCKIN MOVE OR YOU ARE FUCKING OUT OF HERE, GOT IT" I just shook my Head "Yes" so I behaved for rest of show. EARTHQUAKE Defeated HULK HOGAN that Night... I miss the old WWF days. My Fav Wrestling Era was (1985 - 1992) and the Attitude Era (1997 - 2001).
FYI - I did the Save With Conrad thing and was not all that impressed. That's just my experience. It may be great for you. Started in February. Didn't close until late June.
@davidsobilo9622 no sir my credit was outstanding. I was not impressed at how long it took. I knew they weren't gonna be able to do much for me because I didn't have much positive equity. Don't comment on things you don't know about.
Holy shit, am I looking at a sweaty teenagers backne or are those really all commercials. I don't even know if russo says bro that many times in a ten minute convo...well it's pretty damn close but still
Would have been a BAD mistake placing him against Warrior to begin with as it would of damaged Earthquake's push as Warrior NEVER put anyone over cleanly,...and people bitch about Hogan not doing jobs, sheesh.
It's kinda sad how Bruce still can't get over 'Billonaire Ted' and his greener pastures. Looking at his current employers track record in the 1980's he really shouldn't utter a peep.
Hey Bruce, if you read these comments, I just want to warn you that although you've been promoted to head of creative on both shows be aware that Vince will use you as the next fall guy and you WILL be fired in the next year and half. And when that happens you will never be brought back again. So enjoy your last run because it's your last. Vince is not your friend, he only cares about himself and money. He doesn't care about the WWE or the fans any longer. Thanks for everything you've contributed to the business and thanks for sharing your memories on this podcast for the last few years! Much appreciated. And sincerely GOOD LUCK
Part of me wants to wait six months and then when Bruce gets fired say you nailed it!! But another part of me is like nah ....bruce is Vince's number one yes man and a different kind of postion I reckon he gets moved position and they bring in other fall guys for raw n smack down or more likely they give it to hunter who's being getting great plaudits for his nxt booking but once he gets it give it a week before he's champ of both shows and only works pvps !!! Lol

He looked in his 40's
I mean I was 10 and I figure he was at least 38 or something but no just 17 years older crazy!
I've always wanted his hasbro figure n bambams
3:03 start.
JR Blanton thank you!!

My memory is blurry. I remember 80,s WWF like yesterday but 1998,99 is a lil blurry. Did he actually still use the Quake drop?
@@Dizzy1980 I agree. Will C , don't think you should have known.
@Will C No, he didn't use it as Golga.
@Big Boss Somebody is going to have to show me a video of Golga doing the Earthquake splash, because I don't remember him using it.
Earthquake deserves a longer show
Yeah Bruce is pretty busy these days
Earthquake sticks with me. Everything about him scared me as a kid. His look, his size, his threatening promos. I didn't there any one could beat him.
EARTHQUAKE!!!!!!!!!!! Hell Yeah!!! This is what I'm talking about. Earthquake in his prime was an absolute monster. The "squashing Hulk's ribs" angle was legendary.

WOW this episode flew by..!
I wanted more of the Quake..!
What about the face off between quake and yoko at the 93 rumble?
I loved when he did his “tremors” before doing the Earthquake Splash
As a kid, I really like the natural disasters. I know, I know but I thought tugboat/Typhoon was awesome back then. I’ve always been a fan of Earthquake and I’m glad he was a great guy.
WWE needs to bring back the Gimmick Battle Royal one of these years. I want to see Val Venis, Papa Shongo, and I know he wasn't in WWE but Glacier.
Glacier was in aew battle Royal?! Papa shango is on the network all the time just not as papa shango and val Venus is selling weed on the Internet you can go see them all still but you want the idea of a nostalgia battle royal cause the idea is better then the actual thing normally
"I'm not the Shark. I'm not a fish. I'm not an Avalanche. I'm a man"
His fued with big bubba Rodgers Carson silver dollar match .
One of my favorite promos ever. He just seemed like an awesome guy.
Love John Tenta 🙏🏼❤️ RIP
"This is one Earthquake you CAN predict!"
And when it hits, Hulkamania will crumble once and for all into complete devastation.
Ohhhhh I can’t believe it, please.
That was corny... and not Jim.
They way Conrad admires Earthquake makes this one of my favorites. It's nice to hear Big Mamma happy! :)
1:19:40 the tiger tattoo was because he was an LSU alumni. im staggered neither of you knew this.
Cried when he crushed Damien. One of my most vivid childhood memories
I understand this 100%
Awww back when the product was not only watchable and enjoyable but you could remember the angles for weeks and months and years it wasn't a golden era for nothing
I was there when Hogan was crushed on the Brother Love Show! So epic, I thought hogan died, it was fantastic
Sooo how old are u?
By look of ur kids u weren't there
@@jeremymariz7952 You are aware that men are still able to impregnate into their 50s?
I bet the 82 from his name is the year he was born. Me? 79 and I remember the match well so Ya he was probly their if he says he was 🤨
@@brianburchfield2012 he's lying. Don't be a fool
Earthquake as part of the Hart Foundation 97 would have been intriguing 💀💜💀💜
I love Quake's bouncing promo. I didn't like him when I was younger but I was wrong.
Gentleman Jonathan Sayers only worked in Winnipeg and Vancouver, he retired after All-Star Wrestling in Vancouver folded.
I've been waiting for an earthquake deep dive for a long time! Awesome!
The crazy thing is that he's around 27 in that picture above
1:19:28 I always assumed the tattoo was for the LSU Tigers. I think he even confirmed that in his Wrestlecrap interview
Saw The Natural Disasters vs. Money Inc. at a WWF houseshow back in 1992. It was the main event and the last match on the card.
My first ever WWF show was a house show in the Philadelphia spectrum October 19,1991 and the last match was a WWF tag title match with the natural disasters vs the Legion of doom.

Its great to have decent character episode, and NO F***ing Hornswoggle dosn't count.!!!
Thank you Bruce and Conrad.!
the episode about Yokozuna was good but really sad.
Earthquake is the very first wrestler I heard giving a shoot interview (maybe not a formal interview, but still) way back in 2000 or 2001.
When you try shoot with someone like Earthquake and he tells you to bring it, you’d be wise to back the f@#k up! 😂😂😂
Fook Yea!!!! it's the "Quake-Muffin!!!!" or Mudslide!!!! Loved when he'd flex on Hogan and Sting give'em a "Gun-Show" Shame he never got a monster heel title run.
Earthquake should be a person or subject that Bruce is well versed about. Hope to also hear about the pairing with Tugboat as well.
Congrats on getting the promotion, Bruce!

He could have billed himself as Tiger Shark.
That's exactly what I thought as soon as the show said he went to LSU.
Great episode. Earthquake and I share the same birthday. The Lumberjack gimmick sounds interesting because if you went that route he straight up would have been Bear Hugger from Super Punch Out.
Bruce nailed it. John Tenta could move. If you want to see a great disparity in the speed of two big men, watch Earthquake vs. Bastion Booger.

Love this podcast but it's become nearly unwatchable with the ridiculous amount of ads. 19 ads in 87 minutes is pretty absurd.
I fast forward the episode to the end, wait for that add to play out, hit the replay episode or refresh arrow in the center of the screen and then you can watch it add free.
It's like we're listening to advertisements with a podcast in between
Then download it or press skip ad. We're lucky Bruce is still even doing this
Then skip through them.

Remember the promos and the feud with Hogan he was a great heel and a tremendous character
WaaaaaaaY to Many Adds!!!!!!!!
I loved Earthquake's feud with Hogan. They had such great chemistry.
Man i loved earthquake and the natural disaster is one of my favorite tag teams i just love that name
It was so close, but I wish they'd talk about Uncle Fred instead so I can hear Bruce's take on... well, you know🔥🚪🏃♂️
😂😂😂
I know right
I would love to hear his take on the ShockMaster Sabotage
1:10:00 - Not so. Natural Disasters were faces around this time. Typhoon did wrestle Undertaker at a house show, that was advertised during their weekend show, and Undertaker and Paul Bearer even did a promo on it.
Wasn't the tiger tattoo a nod to his LSU alma mater?
i liked earthquake as a heel. they should have beaten lod for the tag belts
Earthquake's WWE Run was awesome
Starts at 3:00
It's funny to think that the oddities were more " over " than anyone / team is today ( aside maybe Wyatt & Taker)
Jason Douglas technically Roman Reigns as well. Always a reaction for him.
@@knowyourroleboulevard7119
And he mostly comes out at night.......mostly
Twin Towers should have DEFINATELY been given the tag belts for at least a little while.

Besides, in 1989, the Brain Busters entered the WWF and it was a given that they would be given a huge push in the WWF tag team division.

He was very agile for his size of around 470 pounds
Not sure if this was stated yet or not - but the tiger tattoo was for his time at LSU?
He played college football?
Too many ads

Man I was a Beverly Brothers fan like crazy as a kid!
Yeah, they were great. I wish they'd done more of their own promos, as opposed to the Genius.
They had the best tag finisher at the time.
Earthquake should've legitimately beat Hogan in match and should have been world champion once RIP Big Quake.
Always liked seeing hulk getting crushed. Didn't happen enough lol
LOVED EARTHQUAKE as a Kid
Absolutely Superstar Heel and amazing Wrestling skills for his size. RIP John Tenta 🙏

As a brit it makes me chuckle every time Conrad says "chat me up". Because in the uk that means basically to flirt with someone to try and get their number or even go home with them that night for "coffee", etc. It just sounds like Conrad is really really into Bruce and just keeps dropping hints that Bruce doesn't pick up
Anyone else think Conrad looks just like Earthquake if he went to hair club for men?
I like how Regis put over Earthquake at WM7 talking about how menacing he was
Great show

@@davidpriolo434 hahaha😅
Wasn't Earthquake the guy that Hogan and warrior worked with to setup wm6?
Yes, Hogan and Warrior each saved the other from being squashed by Earthquake. Earthquake feuded with Hogan after WM6.
FYI - I did the Save With Conrad thing and was not all that impressed. That's just my experience. It may be great for you. Started in February. Didn't close until late June.
Your credit sucked

Same here, especially the watch alongs
i could go for about 6 quick burgers

It's kinda sad how Bruce still can't get over 'Billonaire Ted' and his greener pastures.
Looking at his current employers track record in the 1980's he really shouldn't utter a peep.
Hey Bruce, if you read these comments, I just want to warn you that although you've been promoted to head of creative on both shows be aware that Vince will use you as the next fall guy and you WILL be fired in the next year and half. And when that happens you will never be brought back again. So enjoy your last run because it's your last. Vince is not your friend, he only cares about himself and money. He doesn't care about the WWE or the fans any longer. Thanks for everything you've contributed to the business and thanks for sharing your memories on this podcast for the last few years! Much appreciated. And sincerely GOOD LUCK
Part of me wants to wait six months and then when Bruce gets fired say you nailed it!! But another part of me is like nah ....bruce is Vince's number one yes man and a different kind of postion I reckon he gets moved position and they bring in
other fall guys for raw n smack down or more likely they give it to hunter who's being getting great plaudits for his nxt booking but once he gets it give it a week before he's champ of both shows and only works pvps !!! Lol
He would've been turning 60 later this year.
I imagine the tattoo was because he was an LSU Tiger
