- On this episode of Stories with Brisco and Bradshaw, hosts and hall of famers Gerald Brisco and John Bradshaw Layfield welcome the flamboyant Eric Embry! Eric shares his remarkable stories of his career working through the territories, the legendary cast of talent he worked with and what some believe is the funniest rib ever pulled on Mike Graham. All that plus so much more on this episode of Stories with Brisco and Bradshaw.
Eric Embry is an all time favorite of mine. He's one of those guys who had me running home from school to see him on ESPN back in the 80's.
Exactly 💯👆
Me too. His angle really did bring back world class for a time. It was fun to watch. Lots of gimmick matches that had some heat. Great commentary as well that didn’t get mentioned surprisingly during this interview. They weren’t selling out reunion arena but they were selling out the sportatorium. Good memories. Hard to believe that was back in the late 80’s!
Same
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Eric Embry’s heel run in Memphis in 1991 is amazing work. He was tremendous. He had a great catch phrase.... “I do what I want, man.”
His catchphrase in Memphis was "it's real simple, man".
I haven’t seen Gerald smile so much as on this show
Eric Embry is one of the last great Territory Bookers/Wrestlers that has been forgotten in time. That reverse psychology booking of turning World Class heel to change the name to USWA was great stuff.
Loved Eric as a heel in the Memphis/Texas wars. He was a great heel in those territories. DONT MESS WITH TEXAS!!❤
I met Eric Embry in Texas. He was very down to earth and easy to talk to.🙂
Loved him in Dallas how he called fans his family.
I love Eric Embry in the uswa days him and Jeff Jarrett had some great Battles🔥🔥🔥🔥
I like listening just to hear Gerry say Rassling.. real heavy emphasis on the R. Cracks me up everytime. Anyway Eric Embry was an excellent wrestler in his time. Kinda built like a chicken but face or heel he could talk them into the building. Great to see he’s doing well.
Eric is an awesome guy. I grew up next door to him and his family.
Glad to see this one, especially with Eric and Gerry's history. There is just not enough interviews with Eric and he is entertaining as hell and tells it like it is. I have listened to his highspots and stone cold interviews a hundred times
Eric actually does not like anyone 😂😂. True story. He is old now so it appears he has stepped out his box since his first 10 years in wrestling.
@@Blacattacsquadron hell I wouldn't say that now,he does like Percy and Cactus, Tony Falk and maybe Gary Young
@@Blacattacsquadron This is Eric you state I dont like anyone So far from the truth my friend.
What I dont like anymore is to travel/fly.
Hey Eric how are you doing buddy? Have you seen this stuff that the referee David Manning has started claiming to have had the book in Dallas and is taking credit for all of Gary's ideas? Now he wasn't ever anything other than a ref and Fritz's gopher and stooge was he ?@@ericembry2572
Eric Embry, I feel, is under rated. Tough son of a gun!
Eric Embry is one of my favorites. When I was wrestling it would have been a dream of mine to have a match with Eric Embry at the Sportatorium.
It's amazing having another layer of the Brusier Brody mystery peeled back. 👌 Great job guys!
This was awesome!
I remember the Embry/Jarrett light heavyweight title fued.
Eric Embry hooked up my Dish Network back in '07. Hand to God. Lol
He's still going at it too
Also lives right down the road from me and my girlfriend lol great guy
@@Tyler-Lord Thanks for the kind words. Which neighbor are you ?
@@ericembry2572I remember you worked heal in PWF out of Florida & Owned Main Event Pizza
My first memory of Eric was a bloodbath vs Tully Blanchard in SWCW. Bob Sweetan came out to save him
Every old time wrestler has an interesting story about World Class Championship Wrestling…..
The promotion he worked for in Dallas he couldn't recall after he was injured was Big D Wrestling
Sunday ,9/4/1983 WWF: All American Wrestling Debut on USA Network.
DONT MESS WITH TEXAS!!
It seem like in the 1970s and 1980s,Puerto Rico was an interesting territory with wrestling.
Interesting stories about the television network and Vince McMahon.
That's one of the best things about Eric. He got away from wrestling so long ago and stayed out of it that his living doesn't depend on it. So Eric is pretty honest and tells it like he sees it. He doesn't have to kiss people's ass to make a living
@@russblack443 So true
@@russblack443 That, and he wouldn't get hired anywhere if he tried. 😂
