- (note: the following interviews pre-date the Ole/Thunderbolt split)
interviews from late oct. 1984.
1) Wahoo has a surprise for Ronnie Garvin
2) Very short interview with Ox Baker
3) Thunderbolt Patterson/Jimmy Hart. T-Bolt is...well...bizarre
Man that first Wahoo chop looked like it really hurt.
Best era of wrestling.
I was surprized to see Wahoo attack Ron Garvin. I did'nt see that one coming.
T-Bolt was the most unintentionally hilarious guy on the promos, and Gordon's over there like, "Yep, careful careful..." 🤣 I remember being frightened of Wahoo after this attack on Garvin.
I think Wahoo was one of the few wrestlers who was good either as a heel or face. He was truly one of the best. I for one miss Wahoo Mcdaniel.
Wahoo was a great heel because you never knew when he'd turn. He was a great athlete, a great wrestler. He was fun to watch in the ring and on the mic. Ox Baker wrote a cookbook during his years as a wrestler. He became a very well-known chef.
thunderbolt looked like he reaaally needed to go to a restroom
Poor Gordon. Having to put a mic in front of Thunderbolt.
None better thaan Wahoo. I was fortunate to met him in Belvedere,SC in 1994 on indy show.
That was an awesome turn
if anyone has anymore classic thunderbolt patterson, tommy rich, wrestling 2, tony atlas; basically some more classic georgia championship wrestling please inform me.
Wow. I've NEVER seen Wahoo as a heel. Bizarre!
Thunderbolt is wearing a leather three piece suit. Nice.
@Hardeen31 I was fortuante enough to meet Wahoo in Belvedere,SC in 1995 at an indy show. What a great guy.
If you move...if you move...if you move Jimmy Hart
Apparently this clip coincided with Wahoo's heel turn in the Mid-Atlantic.
I believe so
thunderbolt lost a few jobs due to "on air verbal color" the legends say. wahoo did the best heel turn i've seen in 20 years.
thunderbolt was the original, dusty the improvement.. kinda like "superstar" and the "hulkster".
I want a three piece leather suit too.
Rufus R. (boogaloo) "Freight Train" Jones....... those were the days man.
Oct/nov 1984
You know what? I remember when that happened! DAMN....Has it really been that long ago?
ox Baker was the man I love thunderbolt
Ox Baker and his epic eyebrows.
I've said this time and time again. This great classic NWA footage is from the mid 1980's and IT STILL IS BETTER THAN ANYTHING THE WWE PUTS OUT TODAY!
R.I.P. Squaw-hoo!
WTBS. It was their saturday morning show which aired after mcmahom took over the 6:05pm timeslot on TBS.
I never seen a Wahoo McDaniel heel turn until now! WOW!!!
Wahoo was very notouious for turning like that.
Actually, Dusty took a LOT from T-Bolt! Patterson's schtick was that he talked with the cadence of a preacher!
Gordon's hand got Tomahawked 1:04 LMAO
I think Wahoo gave Garvin a hint as to what was to come
HUGE WAHOO FAN
One of the all time greatest camp moments in the history of the business. The infamous Thunderbolt Patterson nonsensical interview!
6:10 Gordon looks like just wants Thunderbolt to go away.
I'm FULL !!!!
Flair got his chop from Wahoo.
Thunderbolt is the shit lol i love the leather suit. he looks like one of my uncles
Wahoo only turned heel once & it was very late in his career.
I love when good guys turn bad!
Thunderbolt was trying to sound like a baptist preacher! That was his shtick!
That was Ox Baker. In 1972, Ray Gunkel, who ran GCW, died of a ruptured aorta after wrestling Baker in Savannah.
Wahoo did that same turn in Mid Atlantic wrestling.
He did
you damn right
Thunderbolt is going through a "straneous" workout routine. T-bolt always had plenty to say, and if we could ever figure out what he was saying, it might be pretty good.
T-bolt slipped up and mentioned Jimmy Hart leaving for the WWF.
@phi1166 yes
Patterson been having a "straneous" workout! HAHAHAHA
Thunder bolt is to funny
even by today's standards, Wahoo would be considered the best. no one today can match his toughness or energy.
Some real strainious.
This stuff is great but makes me sad at the same time b/c i cant understand what has happened to the current wrestling on tv.
Guys today cant sell, cant do run ins right even their punches look like shit.
Ox baker used to scare me with his thick long molestache.
Georgia Championship Wrestling is no longer owned by the WWE ( thank God!)
Grady Odom now owns Georgia Championship Wrestling and currenly on location to showcase Georgia Championship Wrestling along w/ Thinderbolt Patterson!!!!!
Patterson was referring to the racism that went on in GCW. He and Tony Atlas never won the NWA tag belts from Gene & Ole Anderson, because he alleged that the promoters didn't want blacks as champions. He would win the Georgia TV & tag team belts with Tommy Rich, though.
THE GREATEST: WAHOO
You have to love Gordon Solie who always played the stoic, straight mna to all the craziness around him.
Still I think that Wahoo surprize attack on Garvin would have come off much better had Gordeon showed a little bit more shock & emotion in his reaction.
Rip Gordon Solie & Wahoo McDaniel.
This.
A guy like Jim Ross or Lance Russell would have really sold that as the worst thing in the world.
Dusty Rhodes saw T-Bolt in the late 60s when they both wrestled for the Sheik and stole his entire gimmick. Dusty became one of the biggest stars in the business acting like a black man and T-Bolt, a black man, really didn't get to do anything. Some of what he said here must be shooting.
What was there for 3 folks to dislike this?
I keep hearing people say that Dusty stole his gimmick from T-Bolt Patterson. While that is true, Dusty definately improved on the character. T-Bolt played the "fucky soul brother" character but was terrible on the mic, any promo I have seen of his he is almost intelligable. Dusty was much better in the ring as well.
Very true thunder bolt didn't say nothing but make nose
T-bolt 4:15 "You got a problem, but I will woop your oooooooo"....."oooooo"....."ooooooo". C'mon Man!!! Put a complete thought together and then back it up. Don't "I want you people to write in....." Pathetic! Can I apologize to Gordon's family 17 years too late that he had to endure this guy.
@litehouse6......outrun Rufus R. Jones? Man he could've outrun Rufus with a brisk walking place lol
"All I've done is make the Indian a first class citizen."
fuck yeah
" I was just chased down to Peachtree Street by Rufus R Jones." HAHAHAHAHA!! How fast would he have to run to out run Rufus?
Lol lol
Does anybody know what the f@uck Thurder Bolt said ...LoL
Solie to Thunderbolt: "I know what you mean and how you mean it . . . "
Well, that makes one of us!
Ye good folks arrrrre exac'y right, there, wrestlin' has gon th' way o' th' las' Chinese meal I ate- right down th' toilet!
#ImFull
Thunderbolt is a trip.
Thunderbolt was terrible on the mic
1:54 "Ready Raul baby?"
I wonder if Ronnie Garvin had something to hide in wearing a pink triangle on his t-shirt?
Ox Baker was a badass.
Patterson was acting like and evangalist. LOL!
Solie is awful here.
