The wrestler who would eventually become known as Ravishing Rick Rude was born Richard Erwin Rood on December 7th, 1958. He spent his childhood in Robinsdale, Minnesota, and had an early childhood friendship with future pro wrestler Curt Hennig. Rood broke into the business after a stint as a bouncer working with Barry Darsow, 'Joe Laurinatis' and Mike Hegstrand. He had a stint as an arm wrestler before Eddie Sharkey trained him as a professional wrestler. He got his first big breaks working in Memphis for Jerry Jarrett, who gave him his "Ravishing" nickname. He then worked for Dory Funk Jr. in Florida and World Class Championship Wrestling in Texas. After working in the upper mid-card of the NWA in the mid-80's, he made his way to the World Wrestling Federation under Vince McMahon in late 1987. He was a slow starter, but eventually won the WWF Intercontinental title from The Ultimate Warrior at WrestleMania V (1989) and headlined against the Warrior at Summerslam (1990) (V)_. Shortly after that, he left the WWF to work in All Japan and then WCW. This led to arguably his greatest feuds, against Ricky Steamboat (Richard Blood) and Sting (Steve Borden). He won the NWA world title in 1993, but a dispute between the WCW & NWA left this achievement unrecognised. A back injury ended his wrestling career in 1993. He continued on as a manager & commentator, & in 1997 caused controversy when he appeared on _"Raw Is War" (1997) and "WCW Monday Nitro (1995) on the same night. This was his last major stint with a company, and on April 20th, 1999, he died of cardiac arrest in a hospital in Alpharetta, Georgia. He was 40 years old.
Rick Rude is interred at Green Lawn Cemetery in Roswell Georgia. - Розваги

Rick Rude. Only man to ever appear on RAW and Nitro same night. RIP!
yep remember it like yesterday, blew my mind as a kid... Long live ravishing rick
That was funny as hell when rude was on raw then showed up on wcw nitro…A true badass every wrestler in the back in the locker room feared Rick rude didn’t matter what night it was or what locker room it was nobody wanted any of Rick…..I remember hogan saying he was scared to death of rude that’s why he became such good friends with Rick!!!!
Yes indeed he was cool , Ravishing and Entertaining when the Legends start leaving this world wrestling lost its magic rip The Ravishing One!
Raw was taped back then and Nitro was live so rude was on Raw cause at the time he was still with WWE at the time when it aired that night but he was signed with WCW
Good video. I did remodel work on his house in 1995 or 6. Not a wrestling fan but he was very nice. I was a helper at the time he was really a nice guy. Bought us lunch. Had cold drinks. I dont forget that stuff.
Wtff how crazy random haha Sick
Yep many years ago we put siding on Chris Chelios pole barn. I'm not a hockey fan. My boss was so he was super excited. Super nice guy . Had I don't know if it was his chef ?, family,? Grill us up steaks, and also bought us all beer 😂
The only guy to show up in WCW & WWF PLUS ECW THE SAME WEEK‼️
same NIGHT....WWE was recorded at the time.. WCW was live.... it was this event that made Vince decide to start doin RAW live.
You are always so caring Scott. Cleaning off cobwebs and brushing off dirt. You are the BEST ❤️
We agree
Sadly I will not help people like that anymore. Because yrs ago I stopped to see if someone needed help and got attacked . he did run to my car to kick it as I drove away and all I did was ask if he needed help , food or water. I just decided at that point I wasn't going to put myself in danger again. it bothers me because I love to help people its in my heart. so now I just do volunteer work where ever I can. but to walk up and ask its just too dangerous. I wouldn't even stop to help a broke down car I just call none emergency police to let them know that it's an issue. Thank you again for another awesome video. Be careful out there.
Been there done that. Best wishes 👍✌️
You can’t let people take the ‘goodness’ out of you! I’m a nurse and have gotten punched, bit, slapped.. I’ve even had a black eye from a patient! Even though I’m now very cautious- I don’t let that change how I treat patients! Always trust your ‘gut instinct’ but you could be a person that someone will never forget by your acts of kindness!
I’m sorry that happened to you though…
@@chrissieroxba2949 I did for yrs helped when ever I could. Just that time scared me so bad. It's why I just give back in a different way. With volunteering. You just can't tell what drugs or mental issues are going on with someone. I had realized I actually had put myself in danger many times and felt extremely foolish for it. Thank you for your work also. 💕
Like who? Your not saying Rick rood did this are you
Don't let one bad experience takeaway you kind and loving spirit. You have to remember, grief hits people in different ways. It was wrong of him to act that way, but no telling what he had gone through before you encountered him. Keep trying to help, you never know, you could save a life one day. You just have to be prepared and careful.
Around 1993 or so I was working at a hospital in Tampa that specialized in women's medical services. One day I was walking through the lobby where patients were to be discharged. There was Rick Rude filming his wife with one of those big VHS camcorders as she and their baby were being wheeled outside by a nurse. Us employees there were told not to bother famous people we saw at the hospital. And there were quite a few, including Hulk and Lisa Marie Presley. Still I couldnt resist just a quick hello.
Wow great story that so cool u got to see him!
That don't work for me brother lol
. Rude beat Warrior at MAINIA 5 with Bobby,s help but that set up SummerSlam 89 Warrior won the IC Championship back , the best match on the card hands down , I highly recommend going back n watch that match you will not be disappointed, Roddy Piper showed up at the end of the match, when Warrior pined Rude the place went crazy, Then in SummerSlam 90 it was Warrior n Rude again in the big blue cage for the wwf Heavy weight Championship, another great one , great video, 👍 RIP RICK RUDE, N, ULTIMATE WARRIOR, BOTH GONE TO SOON,
I was on a wrestling cruise in 1999 and Rick Rude was a wrestler that was on it! Cant believe not long after seeing him he was gone! Its 25 years this year
One of my wrestling heroes back in the day, RIP Ravishing Rick Rude ❤ Thank you Scott
I was very close to my great grandparents as a child... they took care of me a lot because both my parents worked. When I was older, I would often go to the cemetery and sit and just talk to them... it always made me feel better.
Hi Scott. My dad just died. Hospital killed him. My father was my best friend, so I totally understand someone crying at a grave. I burst into uncontrollable tears all the time.
I am so sorry for your loss.
My heart breaks for you @alrise1776 . I lost my Mama & Pop within 3 years of eachother , it still hurts 20 years later , although not nearly as bad as when it happened in 2004 & 2007 .. My prayers go out to you
I hear ya
@alrise1776. So sorry you lost your dad. 🙏🏼
@RobinSiwula-bz2qj he had candida pneumonia, confirmed by lung biopsy. The Dr used the wrong anti fungal (diflucan) that wouldn't touch the infection. I begged the hospital to give my father micafungin, which is the correct anti fungal based on NIH case study and from the CDC itself, but the infectious diese Dr was a covid nazi and cuz they stuck a qtip in his nose a month earlier when he went into the ER, they said he had covid, there was nothing they could do. I couldn't get over this guy's head and my mother was technically next of kin and she's a covid nazi too and wouldn't do anything to help. 3 days before he died, I got another Dr to put him in micafungin and also had him sign the living will, with 2 random people signing as witnesses, to give me the power to make medical decisions for him over my mother. The hospital never completed the paperwork, so my mother was still in charge. I stayed with him every night. The final night, they gave him morphine (my mother must have ok'd the end of life treatment he didn't need, his lungs were clearing up from the micafungin), he went into respiratory distress @ 73 breaths per minute immediately after they gave him the morphine. I begged them to stop giving it to him. The crazy infectious disease Dr had ordered it every 30 minutes and I couldn't tell them to stop. I told them call my mother, I was texting her. They didn't and gave him a second round of morphine. Respiratory failure happened, I watched them kill my father even after I begged for his life.
I met Rick when I was a kid after a World Class Championship Wrestling show in Lawton, Oklahoma. This was the height of the kayfabe days, mind you. I asked him if he would ever go back to wrestling in the WWF. He said, "Yeah, but I'd want to be a good guy." He was very nice to me and a bunch of us kids who were hanging out waiting to see him. I know he had his issues, but it was a good memory.
He was a funny dude RIP. Thanks for sharing Scott.
One of the Greatest Wrestlers of All time ❤, So lucky to have grown up in the 1980s, He was taken far to young
Thanks Scott! You are Awesome
I enjoyed that Scott. I remember Ravishing Rick and Ultimate Warrior and their battles. They challenge each other to who had the best body. Rick Rood could hold his on flexing his body against the Warrior flexing his body.I was shocked when Rick Rood passed away at 40 .
RIP Rick Rood, he was always one of my favorites, Storm & I met him at a match in Hammond Indiana, great visit
I like when he was inducted into the WWE Hall of Fame, his son, Rick Jr., honored him by saying his famous catchphrase.
I will never forget. Too many dead from drugs and steroids. Thank you again for sharing this video. My first time seeing his burial. Rip greatness Amen 🙏.
Ravishing Rick Rude was one of my favorite wrestlers. Even in death he still is!!! Thank you so much for another amazing video Scott!!!
Ironically Ravishing Rick was the total opposite of his WWF character. A more conservative family man. Thanks for the great video Scott! We need an ETM video ack ack!
lol have you heard the stories about him? He was a womanizer and smoked lots of pot
@@kingrama2727smoking pot does not make you bad, and if he cheated on his wife, thats between them.
@@piscesempress1978 I never said smoking pit was bad. I was making a point he wasn’t a conservative family man
@@kingrama2727 never heard of him being a womanizer. In regards to smoking weed, what does that have to do with being a conservative or family man? Many ppl smoke for various medical reasons such as the ones a wrestler might endure during his career.
New to channel sir. I was huge 80’s wrestling fan. This brought back memories. I’m now subbed. Thank u keep em coming.
Nice thank you so much
I remember from like 1997 to 2007 the amount of wrestling deaths was insane, all young men died far too soon. I remember getting really down after the British bulldog passed away at 39.
Rick Rude for me was everything you needed to be to be a pro wrestler he had everything only 40 years old. Love the videos Scott love how respectful you are ❤️
Hi I lost my favorite Uncle last April. I remember his smile and he gave the best hugs. Every time I see a red bird I think of him. My heart keeps all the memories. God Bless
Hi scott, you have such compassion. I don't visit graves because i honor in a different way. i think my mom is around me and not in a cementary. But its ok to feel what you feel everyone seems to tell me how i should grieve. but how you grieve should be your own way. lots of love to you and shady. from Vickie💕💕
Hey Scott.. My wife passed away 12 weeks ago, and Ai cannot get over it. I understand that people pass, but the idea of her being gone is extremely disturbing.. She has contacted me through music, thoughts in my head and by placing " shiny dimes " in places where I had just previously been. It's reassuring to know that she is there to watch over me and her friends, but not having her physically is slowly tearing me appart.. totally sux bro.
You should do a video about the phenomenon that occurs when a person passes and their family " hears" from them. I've gotten to the point where I can call upon my wife in the afterworld to let me know that she's still around. Be well Scott.. Be safe my Canadian Friend..
I am so sorry for your loss my man. Your wife is always with you
you can communicate. it's real. we all can. telepathy is a thing. this is the only planet (place in the universe) with spoken word. our loved one's don't die, they just move on. take comfort in knowing love. it hurts the most, but it is the most valuable gift.
Rest in paradise 🙏 im miss my generation of wrestlers that are no longer here in the physical sense
I used to live across the street at the 555 Apartment complex just because I wanted to be close to my favorite of All-Time Mr. Richard Rood. Every morning when I got up to go to work just straight down to the street to Sam's Club, I had Simply Ravishing thumping outta my 2012 Silver Nissan Altima JBL's stereo speakers... I just visited The Late Great Ravishing Rick Rude's Resting Place either this past February or March of this year.... R.I.P My fellow Sagittarius ♐️
Wow you are quite a fan that’s awesome
Thanks heaps Scott I remember the Great Ravishing Rick Rood back in the day. Too many wrestlers passed way too early.
I understand people pain and sadness 😭, with my own of my dad 😭, but i got reassurance from the palliative care Nurses that looked after my Dad , one of them said hes always with you in your heart ❤️ and 🗣️ head forever and will always guide you all, the days of your life until the end 🙏🏻🙏🏻😔😔 i do cry 😭😭💔 when im alone tho, i really loved my father he was my best friend, i know its hard sometimes scott , Thank you for been so caring on your site ,ya dear English west Yorkshire friend always Rodders 🙏🏻🙏🏻🇬🇧🇬🇧🇨🇦🇨🇦 but my dads motto was K.B.O KEEP BUGGERING ON 😂2:19
Shoutout to you Scott thank you for covering wrestlers back in the 80s and early 90s wrestling was the greatest thing to watch ❤❤
Rick's spirit must've said, "You kept the noise down, sweathog. Thank You."
Hi Scott. I just love all your videos you go out to show and tell us there life stories and what and where they are to go and pay respects for all they been through or did in there lives. Much love and respect to you my friend. I just subscribed to your channel to see any other videos I may have missed. I thought I already subscribed but just realized I didn't my bad 😂😂. I'm from Elizabeth N.J
Awesome video as always Scott and the belt is not the Incontinental Championship belt. Thats the WWE Championship that was used from 2014-2023.
Evening scott ❤ yet again another great video didnt really know him ( RIP RICK 🙏🕯🙏🕯🌷🌷) thanks for sharing scott ❤ hugs from dublin ❣❣
Ernie Johnson Jr of INSIDE THE NBA 🏀 on TNT Late Father is also Resting there as well... 🙏 🤲
Thank you for teaching us more about Ravishing Rick. I have so much respect for the earlier WWE wrestlers. Beautiful cemetery. ❤
One of my favorite wrestlers so happen My daughter works at a daycare and his grandkid attends. My daughter ask me about the favorite wrestler. She never watched wrestling.
Watching over in aberdeen scotland
When I was growing up,
my father and I would
watch his matches constantly.
He was one of my favorite wrestlers.
May he continue to rest peacefully.
Awesome video as always,Scott!
Hi Scott, my mums grave is so far away from where I live, so when I go to her grave, I always have a good crying session. We miss our mums so much don’t we Scott. RIP Rick RudE. 💐💐💐, I think homeless people go to the cemeteries because it’s safer than the streets and peaceful. You really can collect your thoughts in a cemetery. The homeless are some of the nicest people, they will do anything for everyone even if they are skint themselves. Best of luck to that man. Thank you Scott. Take care buddy. 👍🤟🏼✌️🥰🥰
Very nice Scott--- Rick had that something --he should be alive today---Rip Rick
As usual Scott so respectful and understanding truly rare personality traits these days, well done my friend.
I love your videos. I learn so many things on this channel.
For me it was Jason David Frank. A huge part of my childhood. I remember being drunk as hell when rumors started that he was dead. I didn’t want to believe it. I started to doubt the rumors. Then it was confirmed. I bottled it up. I had been honored to meet him a couple months before his passing. What fans said was true. Dude was the most genuine & humble guy I’ve met. Then I watched Once & Always. I knew a tribute was coming. When the “once a ranger always a ranger” memorium appeared that broke me. JDF & bray Wyatt…2 different sides to the same coin are the only celebrities that ever made me cry.
RIP...RUDE..SUPERSTAR 😢
🇮🇹 Thank You, Scott 🍀🇮🇹
I know you're gonna dig this Roswell Georgia 🇺🇸

I know you're gonna dig this Roswell Georgia 🇺🇸
You are the best Scott, so respectfull. If more people were like you, the world would be a much better place ❤️
RIP Rick RudE
Well done for trying to help your fellow man Scott 👍✌️
I never cared for wrestling, not even the stuff in the Olympics. I did hear a lot from friends that were into it and knew a lot about some of the characters. Rick Rude sounded like something else. Rest In Paradise Rick
He was a great wrestler and family man....gone to soon...but he did go out on the top of his game.......
The chimes give a more creepier vibe to the place than it being peaceful
I’m surprised that no one stole that belt. But I hope no one ever does. ❤
Rick Rude was a coll wrestler, with one of the best finishing move. Steighr up love Rick Rude and all the love ones. ❤❤❤
Scott you are an AWESOME PERSON to do such an AWESOME REMEMBRANCE VIDEO of Rick Rood.
Ric rude...ravishing ric rude charismatic performer...great great wrestler...atleast he went out at the top of his game....
Nice video, love the filming and the music,, do a behind the scenes video some day and show how you create these great video,, its a lot of work i am sure
Another great video Scott!
You should do a piece on Steve Rubell owner of Studio 54. Not a lot of content on this man and most definitely an important figure to pop culture. Be safe brother look forward to the next video!
If you can get me inside Studio 54 I’ll do it! I love 70s club culture
I’m in New York let me see if I can make some phone calls to see if we can get you some contacts for maybe a tour of the location and history on the building. Im definitely obsessed with that culture of NYC!
@@jmtravelz3418 ya I had an invite a few years ago but that contact no longer works with the company who runs that space
@@SCOTTONTAPEI don’t live far from where Steve is buried and I went to visit not long ago had me thinking no one on UA-cam has done a proper piece on this man and his career. You came to mind Im definitely gonna make some calls to the roundabout theater company see if I can get a contact to get you in for some kind of tour to go with the story and history of studio 54 Steve’s death anniversary is coming up in July i believe it would be a great thing for his legacy and adds a new take on his life for this younger generation who doesn’t even know about his man.
Scott you did a beautiful job with this one he was everyone's favorite villain. You are so compassionate and kind. 🫂❤️🙏🏽
Hello ole friend! Thank You for taking your time to bring us your most AWESOME videos! You ROCK, Scott as Always 👍💓🤗✌️
Good Evening Scott 🙋🏽 I hope you had a blessed beautiful day ‼️❤️✝️🙏🏽💜.
Thanks for sharing Scott. Rip Rick.
I’m in the wrestling business myself and everyone that said that they worked with him said that he was a great guy. Rest in peace my brother Rick Rood.
Have good day Scott, sending Love + respect from AB
Rick Rude was a wrestling legend. One of the toughest men to ever step in a ring. He fell on a table wrong outside the ring and messed up his back. But he was a former intercontinental and world champion. Had the best body in wrestling for years. Legend.
Thank you fir sharing godbless 💖😥
Rip Rick Rude ❤😓
Thank you for sharing Scott I really appreciate your videos.

This video was simply Ravishing!!
RIP Rick Rude
This is brilliant scott. You know i been ssying for ages how much i love uour wrestlers and rappers videos. You did sime justice eith this video. Your research and edit behind these videos are incredible with the music at the intro. How can we forget rick rude as many of us grew uo watcuing him. Yout old video about owen hart was also a winner fot me. You delievered it well. Lile you said death hits us in different ways. You hit the nail on the head there.
Dang Scott I missed this notification. One of the toughest guys in real life is the rumor. Awesome talent.
Amazing video Scott as always and thank you for sharing it with us.
Great work on this video as always dude.🙏
Thanks so much for this. Rude was one my favorites and still missed !
Thanks for sharing Scott
Hi Scott, I use to watch alot of wrestling, not too much anymore
Definitely enjoyed watching this upload ❤
6:21 He first appeared on Monday Night Raw (Raw is War) and then he appeared on Monday Night Nitro (WCW)
Awesome! I meet him After a Match In Augusta Ga!!! SAD INTRO 😢SO IM GOING TO WATCH SOME Biscuit’s on the BOW NOW!!!
Awesome video
Rich Rude was one of my favourite wrestlers from the greatest era 1989 1990
One of my favorite wrestlers ever excellent video, Brother! Such a sad situation he had to pass away the way he did.
Absolute legend loved his feud with Jake the snake Robert's back in the 80's
The magical wrestler! Appeared on WWF and WCW on the same night! (as RAW was taped and WCW was live.) A huge wrestling fan, as you know, Scott. Everything I have ever heard, or read about Rick was that he was a true upstanding man outside the ring. His loss was one of the saddest....he could have gone so much further.
I enjoy watching the content from the old school wrestlers from when i was a kid. My cousin and I loved watching WWE and had our favorites. It's sad how most of them are gone. Each year for my cousins birthday, I'd pay an old school wrestler on Cameo to make a video for him. Now many of those guys are already gone. At least Hacksaw Jim Duggan is still with us, he lived up the road from me back in the 80s as he explained to me in a video i had him do. Thanks again Scott 😊
Good video Scott, you always show respect when you’re doing your videos.
Scott, you have a very loving and caring heart! Thank you for sharing!
Again you're there to educate my mind thanks scott.
Thanks scott
Awesome vid Scott so many great memories watching from when I was a kid n still to this day haha it just very sad to see most of the guys from back when I was a kid are basically gone now. Very sad. RIP Rick 🙏🏻✝️
Watching this great video now Scott
I missed another live ,one of these days I might be there
Had extremely sore eye so only starting to watch videos I missed
Oh great video well done 👏
Preciate the video man love it
One of my favorite of all time 💪
Great video!
Well done, Scott! Thank you for showing us all Rick's resting place. I've never seen it before, so thank you.🙏
Hi Scott ..I like your videos . 👍👍 Please keep them coming . 😊
Love your work Scott
