With all due respect to the late Randy Savage, Firpo did the ooooohhhhh yyyyyeaaaahhhhh first. Watch Classic Wrestling OnDemand at vimeo.com/onde...
Pomparo Firpo was what professional wrestling was all about. An absolute legend who is so very underrated. I saw him wrestle the Original Sheik at Cobo Hall in Detroit. Probably in '72 or '73.
I was there the night Pampero turned face on the Sheik
The Man that Randy Savage got His Manner of Talking from, Randy LOVED Firpo as a Kid running with His Dad Angelo during His "Big Time Wrestling" days.
I loved watching him wrestle. RIP.
Thanks for the great entertainment.
My dad always told me and my cousin about a wrestler he used to watch growing up named "Palm Peril Purple". We thought he was messing with us, and could never find anyone or anything to validate it.
Mystery solved.
I thought he was called Vampiro Purple haha could never find anything on him
Holy SHIT that's a young Handsome Jimmy Valiant.
Pampero Firpo, with no doubt one of the most underrated ring workers ever. Despise his size and limited English level, he was so tremendous, scary and tough competitor...
Limited English haha. he holds a Master's Degree from Kent State.
Richard Brake I heard that firpo is very intelligent. He's like George "the animal "Steele acts like an idiot in the ring but in real life a genius .
Richard Brake that was kayfabe. He graduated from high school in Argentina but never attended college. He never worked as a professor either. He is multilingual though (Spanish, Italian, Armenian, English, Greek, Portuguese, Russian) and well read.
Good ol' Pampero! He was one of the best. OH YEAH!!!
PAMPERO FIRPO is a fucking legend man !!!!!!
Firpo's promos were incredibly believable, with that voice like a cement mixer full of gravel. Today guys take acting classes and use comedy writers, but they don't scare anybody FOR REAL.
AMEN. When I was a kid, the Kiwi Sheepherders were absolutely feckin' TERRIFYING. The Bushwhackers was a silly comedy act loosely based on a wild-ass tag team that barnstormed the American South and left TOTAL CARNAGE in their wake. Same thing with The Sheik. If you watch I Like To Hurt People, that scene where the Sheik has Terry Funk bent backwards over the drunk rail, jabbing him in the head with that corn-dog stick. There's five rows of people crabbing backwards over the seats just scared shitless of that old man. The Great Kabuki was scary, too. You're right, nobody's scary worth shit nowadays. Marjorie Taylor Greene is scarier than any heel on WWE.
Pure professional wrestling legend. UNDERRATED pure heal
Pampero Firpo made Jimmy Valiant look like either Bill or Randy Mulkey
Juan Kachmanian aka Pampero Firpo passed away today just short of his 90th birthday.
Firpo was one of the best
firpo vs original sheik was classic old school,Big Time Wrestling brings back great memories Oooohhh Yeaahh,
Yeah, sometimes opponents, sometimes tag team partners. I remember one tag team match from way back in the 70s where The Sheik, Pampero Firpo & Abdulla the Butcher were matched up against Dick the Bruiser, Bobo Brazil & Big Tex McKenzie. It was total carnage!
The lead announcer is Chuck Marlowe, who worked for WTTV, Channel 4, in Indianapolis. Marlowe played right along with the wrestlers, and I recall him once sounding totally serious as he quoted a rumor that when Pompero Firpo took off his boots, his feet looked like animal claws.
Randy Savage not only copied his Oooh Yeah but his whole looks as well.
Fond memories of the golden age of wrestling at Cobo. Saw giant Baba there.
The Boogie Woogie Man as a kid. Daddy..
Firpo’s Opponent No Sold during the First Minute until Firpo got Serious!!
God Bless Pompero Firpo Al Girfio 🇦🇲🙏🇦🇲🥇🥇🥇
The first time I saw him I was about eight years old and he was wrestling for the LaBelles in LA and he was, if you can believe it, a babyface and just like in this video whenever anyone made a grab for his hair he went berserk. In fact, I can even see a little bit of Taz in him due to the short stature.
I remember him in LA too. Those were the days…Tolos, Blassie, Rivera, Gordman and Goliath, Ernie Ladd. So many greats!
Hard to believe he was the Boogie Woogie man!!!
Pampero Firpo was the best.. they don't make them like this anymore.... choking a guy with your own hair... now that's special...lol!!!!
It was scary watching him as a kid 😊
"8th wonder of the world"
im old school and i love this! my man, the handsome one!
Great eye Classic Wrestling fans!!
Rememorar 70s
Yes it is a young Jimmy Valiant
This is when wrestling was real. They weren't a bunch of paid actors who wrestled in the morning, and then in the afternoon they changed into their green tights to be doin the green river jig
STRANGE IN A YEAR OR TWO JIMMY VALIANT WOULD BE IN THE WWWF AS A VILLIAN AS WAS PAMPERO FIRPO AND BOTH MANAGED BY THE GRAND WIZARD ERNIE ROTH AT THE SAME TIME.
Firpo appears smaller than he looks. Mind you with this is the first time ive ever seen him wrestle prior to just photos he easily reminds me of later wrestlers like Jeorge Steele, The Berzerker and Taz all rolled into one.
I want to see full matches of him against the sheik .I would love to see the chain match they had in the early 70's
I think macho man got the oh yeah from pampero firpo good old wrestling
Chuck Marlowe and Bob Luce calling the action.
Does anyone have Firpos WWWF matches
Add more Firpo matches if you have them! I'm shocked he didn't end the match with the El Garfio. Valiant didn't look to great in this match-up.
Vallon
Oml, My teacher's father is this wrestler. Her name is Ms. Fries.
The Claw
A1 match
ooooooooh-yeah !
Gary Vallon later changed his name to Jimmy Valiant
Jimmy Valiant couldnt sell...even then he was terrible
3:18 Vallon has a bad hair day!
nowadays vince would have let jimmy go, it took time to become a real pro wrestler. which they don't have the luxury anymore. thats why its down the tubes.
Still Alive And Well
Was this claymation in its early days...?
is that Bob Luce also on commentary?
That's how I knew what promotion this was. Bob Luce is very distinctive. I really don't care for him but for those who grew up with him as one of the voices of pro wrestling, he's a legend.
What promotion is this?
Thats a rookie Handsome Jimmy Valiant.....
Mystic Rick brought me here.
Firpo was on WWA tv a lot. Not too much on the circuit tho. Maybe Indy a time or two. He was in AWA and Chicago. Luce indicated DTB and Firpo was coming and coming soon. We never saw it. Gary Vallon also went as Jay Vallen. Same results! Either Bruiser didn’t know how to develop talent or didn’t care. This should have been 1969.
This must have been around 1968 or '69, right? By the early '70s, Valiant was already in the WWWF and turned heel.
MrHmg55 even earlier than that Jimmy debuted about '64 or '65 and that would be about the time Firpo was wrestling for the Bruiser in Indianapolis.
@@markbutler8126 Jimmy didn't start until May of 1967. Firpo didn't come to Indy until late 1968, or 1969.
Great bearhug
2:14 A snap hair instead of a snap mare. e-e-e-E-E-E-E-E-E-e-e-e-e . . . .
No way that's Handsome Jimmy valiant
It definitely is.
How d I they decide who gets to win? Do they flip a coin before the match?
That's it.
There's a complex deal involving 3 lugnuts, a squirrel, and a bottle of Manischewitz. It's really hard for outsiders to understand.
Gary had no offense nor defense.😳
Valiant jobbing to Firpo the wild 🐂 bull...and Valiant made to look like a inept, blonde-mopped, sissyboy...I only wish Firpo would of punished Valiant in a camel clutch, Valiant finally submitting to it, and Firbo refusing to release it for a good lonnnng while after...nice close-up camera shot of Valiant's suffering/begging facial expressions...and Firpo's cocky, gritted teeth expression of total alpha satisfaction
4:05... Vallon cuts 1
EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!
Pues no era la gran cosa ese tal Pampero Firpo
squash
Pampero was awful in the ring and this Vallon jobber was horrible and dangerous, locking up with his head down. I’m surprised Firpo didn’t punch him in the face.
Vinnie Paz- Danger Is My Business.
