Wow only 21k subscribers, been watching all these videos for a couple weeks now and I'm surprised by that. I feel like I'm getting in early on something that's going to be really huge. These guys are great
Dustin was in trouble staring out. Being the son of the Dream, he was expected to wrestle like him, but Dusty got over by brawling, bleeding and being a huge personality on the mic. His finisher in many matches was an elbow drop and he wrestled a lot of matches without using many holds. His style was heelish, better suited for feuding, because he had started out as an outlaw rule breaker. You only get to do that as a good guy if you had a face turn.
That's really interesting about the Jumping Bomb Angels. Crazy that they had so many matches just against the Glamour Girls😆 Real good stuff, really enjoyed this!
Seeing Paul so young, it's frightening. He went through alotta phases and it still takes me a minute to not see him in a suit and headphones like in ECW
He was a photographer for Vinny Mac Sr ten years prior when he was 16 so he's 26-27 here And it's funny seeing him cut a heel promo on Mexicans when he's against immigration Shows how much he understood being a good heel was And kudos for him taking that body slam bump by El Grangte (rip)
thanks for giving big credit to the Jumping Bomb Angels. When I first saw them in wwf at the '88 Royal Rumble i was completely blown away. they were like nothing i'd ever seen before in women's wrestling. This match at War Games was also one of the best matches, if not the best match, on the card
I remember seeing a Jumping Bomb Angels match on one of those old WWF Colloseum VHS tapes dedicated to Aerial wrestlers. Legitimately the best match on the entire tape (better than the Randy Savage match, better than the Rockers match). Even with the dodgy production quality (as it looked like it was a B-show match) you could see how popular they were, and you could see why.
Spot on about how over the Jumping Bomb Angels were! I saw them one time in the Survivors Series and they were unlike anything I’d seen male or female!
Also had one of the best wrestling themes ever. Joshi wrestling at that time from early 80's up to mid 90's was untouchable, for me early 90's to mid 90's All Japan Women is some of the best wrestling you ever see. It's crazy that AJW had this rule that talent had to retire at 26 cause some old fashioned rule about it was age a woman had to get married and have children. In the end it ended up screwing them over, besides money issues, was that top talent had to retire went off to form other Joshi promotions. These women trained in some of toughest training camps you ever see. I saw some of the videos on UA-cam, it made me wince just watching what they went through.
@@tonypine3434 How it worked (or at least the theory behind it) was the stripes would be at odd angles making it hard to find a proper edge (Like say the bow of the ship) to gauge distance and speed of a ship. In super simplistic terms at least, Wikipedia has an in depth article regarding it.
Rules of Army face-paint. You get a stick of the paint which has two colors, one on each end, one dark, one light. Dark goes on high points on your face, light goes on the low parts, or the parts the are deeper in. Odd the things I still remember after thirty years.
One of the great wrestleme endings, el gigante in a sombrero, one person clapping only, Paul heyman looking slightly like a vampire selling a slam that probably hurt....
An instrumental rendition of “God Save the King/Queen” seems insufficiently foreign in the US, given that we shamelessly pilfered the melody and repurposed it for our own patriotic song (“My Country, 'Tis of Thee”). We were equally lazy with our national anthem, for which we paired the melody of an 18th-century London gentleman's club's official song with a poem whose author probably had it in mind.
So bizarre and awesome seeing such a young Paul E. And also such a jovial, goofy side of Giant Gonzalez I'm not used to. I have to say though, the female Japanese wrestlers were awesome, especially for their time. I have no idea how I have absolutely no memory of them for that year they were around in the late 80's in the WWF. Also, that move Itzuki Yamazaki does at 11:11 makes me think of Booker T's flying forearm smash. Super cool all around stuff.
The Jumping Bomb Angels won the women's tag team title from the Glamour Girls at the 1988 Royal Rumble. Fun match worth checking out if you can find it.
Aja Kong is legendary. Bull Nakano is a GOAT!! That Joshi Pro-Wrestling is awesome!! They also have a great PS1 video game. Jumping Bomb Angels are GOAT as well
Food coloring in a tied off condom tip. My brother was wrestling in Japan and was a young boy during a Muta match and one fell out of Muta's mouth. That's how they do the mist.
The Jumping Bomb Angels were incredible. It's a shame that racism would persist for a long time and Japanese wrestlers never got the respect they deserved until more recently. Listening to Dusty and Jim Ross is embarrassing. Asuka more recently got herself over on pure workrate without speaking a word of English beyond a catchphrase. I think people are just surprised when they see good women's wrestling because for so many years it was just pulling hair and rolling around.
I believe it's more sexism than it would be racism. But for the most part, I agree with your comment. Back then and now most of my favorite women wrestlers are Japanese man overall are some of the best women's wrestlers out there
My favorite Jr mark out moment was when they attacked Ric Flair and he went "But the Japanese have attacked flair!! The Japanese have attacked Flair" "Good Gawd Schivone, they're gonna break his neck here!!!"
*15:20* Weird choices for their attires. Buddy Landell could've been an All-Time great. Dustin Rhodes definitely turned into a great pro-wrestler for a bit
When pronouncing Japanese words, your best bet is to chop them up into syllables. There will be a few sounds that you will get wrong (like daisuki sounding more like dai-ski than dai-su-ki ) but you'll get by. Saying a Japanese word slowly still sounds better than trying to say it quickly and stumbling halfway through.
If the WWE doesn't want something on the Network/Peacock then they dont put it on there. Roddy Piper vs. Bad News Brown for example, but there are many others
The guy in the Brazzer's promo kind've looks like if Kevin Dunn were to star as Herb Abrams in WWE films produced biographical film on Herb Abrams's UWF.
It really is insane that even after matches like this, we had things like Bra and Panties matches and Jerry Lawler being a sleazy pervert on commentary; like, if American promotions like WCW or WWF had let women just wrestle like this, there wouldn't have been a need for a women's revolution. I also love how all of them got so over to a totally unfamiliar audience just by beating seven bells out of each-other.
To be fair, this was WCW not WWF and WWF was more guilty of that shit than WCW. But also WWF tried legitimate Women's Divisions from the mid-80s to mid-90s with stars like Wendi Richter, Rockin' Robin (Jake "The Snake" Roberts' irl sister), "Sensational" Sherri Martel, Alundra Blayze (aka Madusa in AWA & WCW - which was actually a babyface name short for Made in the USA or something like that), and Bull Nakano all holding the WWF Women's Championship. Which finally ended in around 1995 or 1996 when WWF Women's Champion Alundra Blayze, finally fed-up with the bullshit and disrespect Vince McMahon & WWF showed the women's division, jumped-ship to WCW while still "champion" (for whatever that was worth at the time) and Eric Bischoff had her debut by coming up to the commentary booth with her WWF Women's Championship Belt, holding it up to the camera with 1 hand while holding a trash can beneath it with the other, then dramatically dropping the belt into the bin, putting the bin down, picking up a microphone, and declaring "And that's what I think of the Word Wrestling Federation Women's Championship belt!" and leaving. And then WCW proceeded to barely ever use her and when they did, use her to hock shitty WCW Nitro cologne or feud with Jeff Jarrett & Vince Russo during their "super-duper misogynistic" gimmick in the very-late-1990s & very-early-2000s. It was a couple years after the infamous belt-binning that WWF kicked off the era of "Divas." Aka Playboy models trying & failing to wrestle professionally. 😂
@@davidburke7777 Only because WWF/WWE was getting far higher ratings back then than it currently does. Proportionally, the women's wrestling of today does just as well as the men's wrestling segments.
@@davidburke7777 I mean, honestly? I don't give a flying fuck about ratings, plus it was not only a different era, but it was the Attitude Era and seemingly EVERYTHING got good ratings, plus something getting good ratings doesn't automatically make it good.
@@Kaltagstar96 You might not care but that's how companies make money so they definitely do. No use getting angry with me, its just a fact that bra and panties matches drew more than any women's wrestling ever has.
Vince really should of put the Jumping Bomb Angels in serious tag team feuds after Survivor Series 87. They should of been on the Royal Rumble, WM4 & Summer Slam.
I'm gonna assume someone posted or commented this, but at *11:37* Rockin Robin is Jake "The Snake" Roberts sister. His Brother was another wrestler named Sam Houston
Flair who world champion. Isn’t even on the poster for match he is in. Yes they just used show poster for the show. You wonder why flair was gone from company five months later
It's hard to understand how and why Paul aged quite so awfully. If he'd had decent hair, a deeper sexier voice, and more height/muscle as a youngster, he'd have favoured James Spader.
Him warning a sombrero and dressing like that is not racist and it is also a great way to draw Heat four obvious reasons. When I say it's not racist, I'm saying he's just being antagonistic and doing a very good job at it, might I add. Him being an undercover immigrant officer and telling them they're going to be under arrest is freaking hilarious. As I'm sure you folks would agree but sitting there saying it's racist I thought was pretty lame.
Dustin Rhodes only look god in the ring when he could hide his out of shape body, his face paint as goldust hid his unattracive uncharismatic face too.
The Jumping Bomb Angles were "the first successful Japanese Tag Team to come into the WWF"? Are you sure of that? What qualifiers are you using? Mr Fuji and Mr Saito held the WWF Tag Team Titles in 1981 and 1982. Are they discounted because Mr Fuji was partially Hawaiian? Or are they discounted because they were a WWF made team?
You know, good point - I should have mentioned them! I was making the point that the JBA were the first headlining team in Japan who had been imported into WWF, but totally willing to accede the point re Fooj and Saito, who I'd totally forgotten about
How tf did you guys miss the fact that The Jumping Bomb Angels (Itsuki Yamazaki & Noriyo Tateno) also wrestled in the 2nd match of the very first WWF Survivor Series PPV on 26 November, 1987 alongside WWF Women's Champion Rockin' Robin (Jake "The Snake" Roberts' irl sister), Velvet McIntyre, and The Fabulous Moolah (during a VERY ill-conceived babyface-run) against The Glamour Girls (Leilani Kai & Judy Martin), Dawn Marie, Donna Christanello, and "Sensational" Sherri Martel! Indeed, The Jumping Bomb Angels would go on to win that match as the "Sole Survivors" when they last eliminated The Glamour Girls (I think with a simultaneous pinfall, even).
Dude, usually a bodyslam the person goes flat just about as they're hitting the mat. That young man, that little baby boy, is *so* tall that Heyman's flat for like 2 feet before he hits.
12:47 I feel like my brother and i are the only 2 people on the planet to remember this, and I'll never forget it cuz i never have since i heard it----- when Macho Man was relegated to friggin commentary in WWF, he called the VERY easy to pronounce BULL NAKANO (well... easy for "normal" people who also have above a 4th grade readinf level)..... "Bull Nakanakanew" 😂😂😂
17:27 - id love to hear your thoughts about the Scott Steiner promo where he talks shit about Ric Flair for 'stealing' Landell's nickname... ...and then he realizes... "...now Buddy Landell is Dead, rest his soul, but still!"
You guys said that El Gigante could identify with the Mexicans in Arizona because he is from South America too... But Argentina is in South America and Mexico is a part of North America. I hate to be that dickhead...

Dustin was in trouble staring out. Being the son of the Dream, he was expected to wrestle like him, but Dusty got over by brawling, bleeding and being a huge personality on the mic. His finisher in many matches was an elbow drop and he wrestled a lot of matches without using many holds. His style was heelish, better suited for feuding, because he had started out as an outlaw rule breaker. You only get to do that as a good guy if you had a face turn.
That's really interesting about the Jumping Bomb Angels. Crazy that they had so many matches just against the Glamour Girls😆 Real good stuff, really enjoyed this!
Every episode on this channel is awesome.
Using Mexican jokes/insults on a dude from Argentina, not even the same continent. lol
The helmet on the VHS cover isn't plastic. Its a helmet liner for the M1 helmet. Usually made if fiberglass
This sounds right! But the cap on Sid is definitely MUCH too small, we should have highlighted that instead Sjag
I like how the sombrero just looks like a normal sized hat on Giant Gonzalez’s head.
I was once the Great Kabuki for Halloween when I was a kid and I used green food coloring for the mist...which never came out of my teeth to this day!
You serious? Your teeth are green? lol
