One of the few men who can sends shivers down my spine from talking even the nonsense of sausage. RIP to the big man, the man who held the charisma of the WWE, the legend, and forever THE COOOLLD BLOODED SAUSAGE MAKER. ❤️
RIP Dusty Rhodes. You were one of the greatest orators ever!! I enjoyed watching wrestling in the 1980s. You were the Real American Dream!! Thank you for your contributions to the sport. May you rest in peace! God Bless !
"She aint no lady,she aint no 10, she's nothing more than something off the I aint even gonna talk about it". Man that's classic, looked like he wiped away a little something white and powdery from his nose there while going off on that ad lib.
Dusty was a walking billboard for every eatery and pub in Florida, and that’s the thing he realized the need for recognition outside of wrestling would expand the brand and make it more than a regional phenomenon
Growing up in the Tri State area during the 70s and 80s...I remember watching Leroy McGuirks wrestling show and I remember them showing matches from other areas from time to time. And when this man came on , I was mesmerized by his charisma and ability. A joy to watch Big Dust do his thang!
When Dusty says the dealer that's a veiled reference to him being the booker. No scripts back then. These guys all got themselves over on the mic on their own
It worked well for his gimmick. The (All) American Dream (especially in the South back in those days) wouldn’t have been cussing in front of women and children. I don’t know if there are too many people like that anywhere in this country anymore.
@@kenterminateddq5311 I stopped watching pro wrestling after the finger poke of doom, so I cannot help you there sir. The only modern stuff I’ve seen is Flair’s last match, and some of the Lethal clips that correspond with em. I particularly like 80’s Dusty though, because he reminds me of the men I was around as a Florida boy in that same era.
"andyou the little piggehs!" "That is risssky business. I am risky business. I am... the cold... blooded... sausage-makah" One of the best promo guys ever. Didn't even have to make sense; the charisma alone was enough
@@arringtoncane @cory Goodman The cold blooded sausage maker was an evil man who tried to kill the poor little piggies, but Dusty always saved them. Except in this story Tully and Baby doll are the pigs, Dusty is the cold blooded sausage maker and no one can save them from him.
I love this. It makes perfect sense to me. The cold blooded sausage maker was an evil man who tried to kill the poor little piggies, but Dusty always saved them. Except in this story Tully and Baby doll are the pigs, Dusty is the cold blooded sausage maker and no one can save them from him.
The minds these guys had to come up with these promos on the fly and their grasp on the psychology of wrestling now looks eons beyond anything anyone can come up with now. Everything about Dusty's flow is perfectly natural, you hang on his every word, he commands attention when he walks into view. Piper, Flair, Valiant, and so many others were just like that as well. One has to wonder at this point if whether or not all these amazing and charismatic personalities just happen to come into their own in the wrestling business all around the same era by pure coincidence. It seems like as time went on with subsequent generations that there have been fewer and fewer fresh stars able to perform at such a level and it's worse now than it's ever been.
Dusty (at least partially) modeled his promos after televangelist. Superstar Billy Graham did the same thing… In the old days, people seemed to interact with each other a lot more (a lot less home entertainment existed), etc. I don’t think it was a coincidence. The territory system was very good at developing talent too (like a minor league team).
Thank you Dusty for your hard-work and dedication to provide entertainment both inside and outside the ring. You're not only an inspiration to your sons but to all of us fans as well
This stuff was (and still is) incredible. Here in Philly, I remember when Jim Crockett Promotions first started to air in late 1984 and it was such a different, more realistic wrestling presentation than the cartoonish WWF! I could not wait until the clock struck 2pm every Saturday; I would quickly turn the UHF knob to WPHL channel 17 to watch the magic!
In the last eight days or so,I’ve eaten 3 Polska Kielbasa Hillshire Farms,1 a day,straight boiled,sliced after boiling and off a knife,and this promo here,well I love Sausage! Wish The Cold-Blooded Sausage Maker Dusty Rhodes would make sausage for me!
I’m sure this promo got away from him. I swear you could almost see him crack up once or twice. But Dusty could make anything work. Let’s face it, it’s risky business for sausage makers.
miss this guy he was awesome in his day if anything I wished that I could've got to ask him one question, was he a Marvin Gaye fan he use to say let's get on in most of his interviews back in the day when him and Terry Funk went at it
He recommended people watch this promo I take it? Colt's cool. I got here from watching Dusty Rhodes promos instead of through Colt's podcast, but I am a fan of Cabana.
It's because now days the promos are scripted and half the time they can't remember what they're supposed to say. In the old days they weren't scripted and guys like Dusty Rhodes, Ric Flair, Harley Race and others could sell out an arena with one 3 minute promo.
Facts, I love watching these shits bring back a lot of memories. Like when my uncles use to argue if wrestling was real or fake. Lol, cold blooded sausage maker lol.
Literally any other wrestler wouldve look dumb as hell saying that. Imagine anotber wrestler saying their " the cold blooded sausage maker" 😭😭 ppl wouldve just been like WTH did he just say? Sausage maker? Idk about that one
Dusty might have been the only wrestler who could make a promo about a pig and sausage maker work.
Dusty Rhodes would've made one hell of a televangelist!
Amen to that !
He was. He preached old school, southern wrestling.
I was thinking spaghetti…

He's so damn amazing lol

His over expansion ran Jim Crockett promotions out of business.
Look at dusty....that good ol boy could eat.....you know he took care of who took care of the sausage maker

lol I love how Dusty called Babydoll a pig instead of a bitch or the c word.
See? Dusty is one of the guys that can make PG wrestling work.

@@smeagle3295 Correct me if I'm wrong but Cody never cursed in AEW nor in WWE, right?

@@julessantacarlo2514 You're kidding right? Today's "wrestlers" are largely not even FIT to occupy the same ring as these ICONS!
Dusty was always solid country gold. RIP the original rap master the American dream.
This man was a natural speaker, you can't teach it. You have to be born with the ability.
GREATEST PROMO EVER, HANDS DOWN!!! THE BEST, LEAPS & BOUNDS ABOVE THE REST

Thank you, I didn't understand it when I first watched the video but you telling me exactly what Duthtay said makes sense.
@@Hellwyck LMAO XD
Hey JEGG, one more time for the people who didn't get it?
ive dined with kings and queens ..the dreammmm
Another Wrestling legend gone. He could cut a promo. He will be miss. Dusty could do it all. We will miss you Dusty.
"Cuz that's rithsky bithsness!....And I AM rithsky bithsnesss!!!" hahaha epic
That t-shirt is amazing
Dusty in Ford Trucks hat! 👍🏻

Go make that thauthage, Duthty!
I never did think Babydoll was cute

you don't wanna get in a fight with a man who's blood type is "cold blooded sausage".
Dusty was a national treasure, that’s all there is to it.
Never see a promo like that again
I am ... The Cold Blooded Sausage Maker!
"....while yall nda back..laughin an jokin..the dream's out front baby..cookin an smokin!."
Such a good promo, I had to remix it, thank you for the upload
In the last eight days or so,I’ve eaten 3 Polska Kielbasa Hillshire Farms,1 a day,straight boiled,sliced after boiling and off a knife,and this promo here,well I love Sausage!
Wish The Cold-Blooded Sausage Maker Dusty Rhodes would make sausage for me!
No andouille?!? I am quite disappointed sir.
@@smeagle3295 I’ve never seen it!
Would definitely try it!
this is the kind of promo you,say to the crew, "hey yall, watch this" before you go out and cut it.
the one & only American Dream Dusty Rhodes we miss you
OK, maybe the greatest promo of all time
I'm surprised that jimmy dean didn't use this in a commercial
Nice of them to use a picture of the side of Dusty's pickup for the set background 😂
Sloppy Joe's is a fuckin' PLACE, boys. I've never been so drunk
R.I.P. American Dream! You gonna make some cold-blooded sausage in heaven now buddy!
Forget I had a dream this is the greatest speech of all time
Yep
I’m sure this promo got away from him. I swear you could almost see him crack up once or twice. But Dusty could make anything work. Let’s face it, it’s risky business for sausage makers.
Best all time!! Love u Big Dust
The guy looks like a trucker from the late 70's
I wonder if that sloppy joe's joint in Key West is still open
You could’ve easily looked it up (I did). That place opened in 1933, and is still in business.
I honestly favor this promo over Hard Times.
Nahhh..close tho.
From now on, I'm gonna call myself the "Cold-Blooded Sausage Maker".
Dusty Rhodes. The second most recognizable athlete second only to the great Muhammad Ali.
real aMERICAN hero broda
1:10 me after my fiancé gets smart with me lol Rip American Dream.
Dusty could’ve been a preacher. No doubt.
The best. Rest in peace.
I want that old school hat
Dusty would have worn a Klondike bill, glassbottom boat ride shirt
is that Hemmingway on his t-shirt?
Yup. Ol' "Sloppy" Joe Hemmingway. Best damn sausage-maker in Monroe County.
Dream can cut a promo off of anything.
miss this guy he was awesome in his day if anything I wished that I could've got to ask him one question, was he a Marvin Gaye fan he use to say let's get on in most of his interviews back in the day when him and Terry Funk went at it
R.I.P. Dusty
“Thith gonna theathe to exthitht!”
Dusty loved sloppy joes
He don't take no prisoners!
Pause it at 1:54 and try not to laugh. I dare you.
Too perfect 😆
NWA/WCW crew had the best mic skills
TTHAUSSAGE-Dusty Rhodes.
Dusty now rides that lightning bolt through this vast universe. Watching this just shows how much wwf sucked and wwe still does.
We miss you dusty
Would've loved to have seen Dusty participate in a presidential debate.
Dusty forgot to mention Reek Flayaaaaa
Hahahaha fantastic WTF ohhh the times ... making Sausage makers across the world popular!
Thanks Colt Cabana
He recommended people watch this promo I take it? Colt's cool. I got here from watching Dusty Rhodes promos instead of through Colt's podcast, but I am a fan of Cabana.
Loved growing up on this stuff but never understand what the "world television champion" was exactly supposed to be. Best TV repairman? Ha.
Love it! Deal with the dealer
Big Dust!!!
Is Dusty wearing a shirt advertising sloppy joes with a picture of Ernest Hemingway on it? Goddamn, the 80s were a time.
Ridiculous but I could not stop watching it. The art of the promo is dead
+Nathan Justice True...there are no show men left like this.

It was not ridiculous it was fantastic
It was very real read bugsy mgraws book some guys really fought
RIP Dusty Rhodes
Was this towards Sullivan?
Tully Blanchard and Baby Doll.
Dusty pretty good with the promos too
The greatest promo of all-time!!!
>:-)
Damn I miss Dusty
classic dusty
Classic 1985
Talk about product placement lmao
Top 5 promo guy ever. Only clear cut 2 that are better is Flair and Austin.
Rip big man
Literally any other wrestler wouldve look dumb as hell saying that. Imagine anotber wrestler saying their " the cold blooded sausage maker" 😭😭 ppl wouldve just been like WTH did he just say? Sausage maker? Idk about that one
0:46, Little Piggies

I love this shit!!!!
Cool hat

FORD TRUCKS AND SLOPPY JOE'S. MURICA!!!!!!!!
She a Jezebel !!!!
Mmmmm.....sausage.
Let me tell you thomthing Davy Crockett.
I've heard more coherent outbursts from mental patients. But none of them had a bionic elbow, so........nevermind.
If you will.........
#RIPAmericanDream
So confusing. What does any of this mean???
U don't know wrestling my guy.
***** Improvisational trash talking on live TV. Not many could do it well like Ric Flair, Jim Cornette, Steve Austin, Kevin Nash, etc...
***** It means Tully Blanchard is in a crapload of trouble, again. Trash talk to sell tickets - that's what its all about.
***** Come on, it's not like it' an Ultimate Warrior promo!
***** It means he's the sausage maker and your ass is the pork!
