Bearer seems like he would have been a cool guy to talk to about his career. It's too bad he isnt with us anymore, he would be great on a podcast. RIP William "Paul Bearer" Moody.
I'm so happy these interviews exist because so many of the wrestlers he mentioned are dead now. Ultimate Warrior, Komala, Giant Gonzalez, Elizabeth. Even Paul Himself. These stories would have been lost forever if kayfabe wasn't broken and I understand wanting to keep kayfabe but I think for the history and knowledge of the buisness it's important.
Octagon Seventynine Nobody said anything in the way of it coming back. So, I’m not sure why that “most reasonable people” part needed to be said? Just because those of us who remember are sad Kayfabe DIED, doesn’t mean we are saying it can or should come back. Just that we WISH it COULD. Just like we wish these guys didn’t have to die, so we could still hear their stories. Seems you are just purposely looking to start a fight unnecessarily. All just so you can call someone else unreasonable, delusional, or maybe even stoop to levels of slinging childish deragotaty terms (i.e. stupid, moron, etc). I don’t understand people like you, who put things into people’s mouths. Then, you chastise them, for the imaginary words they supposedly said. Do you just need to feel better, about YOURSELF?
Some of todays WWE DIVAS need to see this. "When you get off a plane fans will be there and youve got to take the time because without them youd be nothing"
Paul Bearer man, he was one of the greatest wwe managers along side Bobby Heenan being so into character. And did such a good job. Its funny that he was actually a real mortician in real life and was perfect for the job to be undertaker's manager. What an original. RIP Paul Bearer.
@@JudgeSikhs I think the issue is that Taker is old school macho, he doesn't like getting emotional on camera, so he avoids subjects that could do that to him. The few times he has spoken of Moody you can see it effects him deeply, and as a result he seems to avoid it.
@@user-sr3er1ub7r he was very very nice, and answered any questions, and even signed my photo, and hugged me, this was years ago, but it's a memory I'll always have. I met Kamala as well
@@generalgringo9887 Wow . I never met any of WWE superstars face to face but I could see many of them in the ring more than once when they came to Saudi Arabia .
@@user-sr3er1ub7r it was at an independent wrestling show in either Mississippi or Tennessee, very fun, aww you're Saudi? You guys are lucky in your own way actually, you get good shows from WWE
@@generalgringo9887 Yes am Saudi . But in my opinion ( beacuase I,ve been in the audence for the first four shows in Jeddah and Riyadh cities . And only missed the fifth and last show in Riyadh on February 27th ) I think the very first show ( Greatest Royal Rumble 2018 ) in Jeddah was the best of the four because the undercard was really put together excellently and there was the famous 50 men Royal Rumble match .
I miss this man. He sent me an email as a kid when he had his PercyPringle website with stories and pictures... could've listened to him talk all day....RIP Paul
@@KGBBooks Yet they pull off their character's voices perfectly. They need to start a podcast where they read ghost stories or narrate serial killer stories.
metalgamer83 Years later, but undertaker did have a "game show" where they had contestants trying to escape the morgue or mansion. Was kinda lame, fun concept though 🤷
I remember seeing him come down from WWF at the time , to manage manage someone at a tiny little show in Bayou La Batre Alabama . The building must have held about 70 or 80 people , counting the wrestlers and building staff . Man , he was a great guy .
How the hell does he know "there wasn't a damn thing wrong with Hogan" after the match? Why is it hard to believe he was hurt? Hogan never even blamed Undertaker. SHEEESH.
I know everyone in the business shits on the Gonzales match, but it really wasn’t supposed to be a wrestling match. It was just a spectacle - monster vs monster. As a kid it was one of the things I most looked forward to on the whole show, purely just to see how it would play out
“I’m a natural heel” Brother, he ain’t lying. I was friends with him for a long time up until he died, friends with his wife and family, and I’ve seen him do some dastardly shit at home when off the road. Watched him dump three full ashtrays into a guys brand new $2,000 aquarium after hearing the guy brag about his new tank and expensive fish. He always was up to something heelish.
He talks about taking care of Undertaker by making sure he has hotel rooms and rental cars etc. I thought that a wrestling “manager” was just a kayfabe “for the show” thing… or are on screen managers typically managers behind the scenes also? Like Paul Heyman and Brock etc?
Both Paul Bearer and Undertaker said that they hated the Giant Gonzalez run they never said anything bad about him personally and I always wondered how They felt about him as a person but too me the match was about the story but I always felt bad for him
Make no mistake, Paul Bearer is as much of The Undertaker's legacy as the Undertaker is, and I mean that from both behind and in front of the camera. His character on screen was so terrifying and unique and aside from that, Mr. Bearer was apparently a fantastic manager to many wrestlers and not just Mark Calaway.
I was a kid when sid and undertaker wrestled and I thought it was amazing. Sid was so good at interviews and intimidating and the undertaker was the undertaker. The fact he compared him to giant Gonzalez made me want to leave the video honestly
“I was the highest paid babysitter”
Lol gold
And high he was and is in this interview. RIP percy pringle
🗿
RIP
managers / tour managers are basically baby sitters of big spoiled babies
I remember Jim Cornette saying he had the same job taking care of Sunny.
Man he was the perfect piece to complete the Undertakes gig ! The faces he would do were unforgettable ! God bless PB ! Never be another ever !
Bearer seems like he would have been a cool guy to talk to about his career. It's too bad he isnt with us anymore, he would be great on a podcast. RIP William "Paul Bearer" Moody.
I’ve never heard him out of character... still a creepy man in this video
“That was the drizzlin’ fuckin’ diarrhea shits”
Gold 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Sums Giant Gonzalez up perfectly
I'm so happy these interviews exist because so many of the wrestlers he mentioned are dead now. Ultimate Warrior, Komala, Giant Gonzalez, Elizabeth. Even Paul Himself. These stories would have been lost forever if kayfabe wasn't broken and I understand wanting to keep kayfabe but I think for the history and knowledge of the buisness it's important.
Old school fans mourn the death of kayfabe but a lot of these shoot interviews make the old wrestling that much more interesting to me.
Kayfabe is gone and never coming back. Most reasonable people accept that
Not to mention he's dead now too and has been for a while
tmage23 I’m right with ya
Octagon Seventynine Nobody said anything in the way of it coming back. So, I’m not sure why that “most reasonable people” part needed to be said?

Bearer was a big reason why Taker got over. They were the perfect duo.
The ONLY person who could and would call 'Taker "WENDY" and live to see the next day
🤟🏿😈🤟🏿
RIP SIR!!!

@nordhorny he also preferred being called Percy in real life.
His name was William moody
OMG how I missed this guy....thk you so much for all the childhood memories u gave me uncle Paul...will always be in our hearts forever....RIP
He must've been such a great person. God rest HIS soul.
"Sid, bless his heart" 😂
Unless it’s softball season then he’s a bastard
Sid was made to play rec league softball. It’s a shame he ruined Brian Pillman’s health with the power bomb in the cage.
Paul Bearer man, he was one of the greatest wwe managers along side Bobby Heenan being so into character. And did such a good job. Its funny that he was actually a real mortician in real life and was perfect for the job to be undertaker's manager. What an original. RIP Paul Bearer.
First time I have ever seen Paul as himself R.I.P u legend
R.I.P Paul Bearer. He sure looked tired that night,
I was thinking the same thing, looks like every few minutes he's walking his self up again.
I think he was just super laid back in real life
Seeing this very real and normal interview, he's just a very chill man who was an EXCELLENT actor. He really made me believe in his character
Now that Takeris opening up, I really want to hear his thoughts and stories about Paul Bearer. Those two must have had some great times.
Yea I don’t see anywhere if Taker talking much at all about Paul I wonder why
@@JudgeSikhs I think the issue is that Taker is old school macho, he doesn't like getting emotional on camera, so he avoids subjects that could do that to him. The few times he has spoken of Moody you can see it effects him deeply, and as a result he seems to avoid it.
That’s cool of him to look out for Mark.👍
"Ooooohhhh Yeeaasssssss"
I hear that voice in my head anytime says this lol
His facial expressions especially as Paul Bearer were amazing lol
They were what?!?
@@DaileyShorts amazing
I had some e-mail exchanges with him when I was in high school almost 20 years ago when I stumbled upon his website. He was the best character ever.
I could listen to him and Bobby Heenan all day. Straight forward story telling.

True, he always worked very hard and he had that intensity that you want in a monster wrestler.

Didn’t even wrestle but somehow was one of the most iconic characters of all time.

I think Percy managed Warrior for a time back in their days in Dallas.
Why is that “nice to hear”…?

Such a beautiful soul
Thank you for uploading !
Never will there be such a class refined Southern gentleman such a William/Paul Bearer
Lol sarcasm?
The perfect and best manager and wrestler duo of all time. He was great with kane also but him and taker was like peanut butter and jelly .
Great stuff. ⚱️
RIP Paul
I still have Bobby Henan's commentary memorized for that Survivor Series match between Hogan and Undertaker!! One of my favorite matches of all time!
wow, thanks for the upload, sir.
He seems like he was a really great guy. RIP.
Classic act manager one of the greatest!he really sold it
He reminds me a lot of JR
this is such a great interview well worth watching the whole thing
I remember seeing that show, as a kid, in Providence. It was my first PPV Event in person. Still my favorite wrestling memory.
I was there too.
By the look in his eyes you could tell he was sick. R.i.p Percy pringle
In this video I think he was just smoking that gas
@@maybachrob9475 he didn't smoke, if he did it would've failed his health faster
@@kaylalaufeyson8828 not what Cornette and Jim Ross said
@@maybachrob9475 i just say the comment lol, my bad
@THE SPEAKER OF TRUTH he’s high as a kite. He was a notorious weed smoker!
i love how he always says "we" became babyfaces - i know it was obvious but they really were a package deal for a while there
It's great how in this interview what Paul talks about, Taker ends up mentioning the same stories this year.
His comments are so right no fans no wrestling until there are fans back wrestling is done. It just no fun without fans.
"CASKETUS" lol 😂
I laughed for 10 min solid on that for some reason
love paul bearer's voice
Perc 30 Paul Zooted
@Zappas Muffins you know nothing fool. He was geeked up. No judgment on my part
@NAUGHTY BOY even more reasons to pop a few
@Zappas Muffins classic perc 30 mannerisms
@Zappas Muffins you right ok. May he REST IN PEACE... [Takers voice]

One of the greatest gimmicks ever. Bruce Prichard put that together well.
He didn’t do anything
RIP Percy
How the hell does he know "there wasn't a damn thing wrong with Hogan" after the match? Why is it hard to believe he was hurt?
Hogan never even blamed Undertaker.
SHEEESH.
You will be missed Paul
When the undertaker 1st debuted you knew he was going to be around along time he was a fan favourite straight from the get go
No the gimmick was a favourite
“I ain’t getting in no casketus!” 😆
Rip ur the man Paul bearer
Underraker wouldn't be undertaker without paul bearer. RIP moody
5:00 lol his face
LEGEND
I know everyone in the business shits on the Gonzales match, but it really wasn’t supposed to be a wrestling match. It was just a spectacle - monster vs monster. As a kid it was one of the things I most looked forward to on the whole show, purely just to see how it would play out
