- "Dr. D" David Schultz watches himself slap 20/20 reporter John Stossel at Madison Square Garden. Full shoot ➤ TitleMatchNetwork.com
Produced, licensed & distributed by Title Match Media LLC. Enjoy the full "Dr. D" David Schultz shoot interview on our streaming subscription service, TitleMatchNetwork.com.
Back in 1985, 20/20 news reporter John Stossel was doing a long-form story on Vince McMahon, the WWF & the age-old question of "is wrestling fake?".
Now in some rarely before seen footage, David Schultz shows us the raw video that his lawyers gave him during the deposition. It shows what happened moments before Schultz slaps John Stossel and the immediate aftermath.
You will see Iron Sheik, Mr Fuji and even Vince McMahon walk into frame just after the slap heard round the world. It was at this moment that Schultz slaps Stossel across the face stating, "yeah is that fake? That's an open hand slap!".
The slap was met by praise from wrestlers in the locker room but it turned into a legal nightmare for WWF owner Vince McMahon. The promotion would be sued by Stossel and 20/20, leaving McMahon to pay out more than half a million dollars.
Dr. D David Schultz would never truly recover from this incident, though his name was forever etched in infamy. Recently seen on Dark Side of the Ring and other programs reliving the incident, Schultz has undergone another wave of popularity and exposure. - Розваги

Wow. Ya we see. That wrestler is an impotent 🤡
I don’t think this version of the video really helps his case lol
😂😂😂
Not one bit lol. He’s a maniac.
Justified the slap if you ask me. Lol
Not at all
Hope the incident ruined him
This is actually more damning than the shorter version lol.
Holy crap, Dr. D looks AMAZING HE LOOKS BETTER AND YOUNGER THEN HE DID YEARS AGO!! WOW what ever you are doing Dr. D keep it up, I can’t believe how great you look!!
Bret Hart even said that Stossel deserved it. If Bret Hart said it Schultz wasn't in the wrong then you know it's true lol
@@boondox270 I'm surprised Bret hasn't somehow blamed Goldberg for what happened to Stossel lol
I remember this. I was young, and believed wrestling was real. He helped convince me further. 😂
He saved kayefabe for me😊
It is real. He slapped the reporter just like they slap each other in the ring. So was the slap fake? That's the whole point. It is scripted and they do things and try to hurt each other as less as possible but the bumps they take in order to make a show are real.
@@ettorebugatti9354 he ruptured his ear drum, and was sued. It was real.
@@markfrank5937 Deposition proved that his ear drum was never ruptured. He settled out of court because they couldn't prove a crime had been committed.
@@jefferyfite7122 even though he said on TV, that it was ruptured? 🤔
That was the easiest half mil Stossel ever made in his life...
how do you know it was a 500k i can’t find it
I read it was closer to a quarter of a mil
Pocket watching is never the answer, especially from decades ago @@smellmapitts5065
💩🗣️
Well than good for you...@@smellmapitts5065
He should've slapped Vince McMahon like that
That would require REAL balls going after McMahon. Instead he went after a 145lb reporter. What a dickhead !
Vince would've died on the spot lol. He gets injured or starts bleeding every time he tries to do something remotely extreme
Right. Stossel is annoying. McMahon was actually exploiting the guy. Go slap him lol
@@juanbaclavabvince would have kicked his ass
Vince definitely deserves a few slaps like that
Does he think this footage somehow exonerates him? It still looks every bit as damning to me.
Possibly worse
and at the end of that video you can see vince himself, so he slapped a reporter in vinces presence, that wouldnt help a lot
He does, they are usually pretty stupid and very shitty people. Hulkster is probably the worst.
he's a moron, it makes him look even worse
I still love Dr.D he is amazing
The older David Shultz looks like that cool physics professor at a local community college
He looks like a ripped version of that fat kid from Bad Santa.
He'd be great for these wokesters 😂
Wow he really added context to this obvious assault.
He's a loser. Let's move on with our lives
And it was obviously deserved
That's pretty much what I saw on TV when it happened lol
Yep
But what you saw wasnt from HIS video cassette
Definitely
You all got it wrong.The video aired didn't actually show how hard slapped him. This video came from his heart 😅
He looked terrifying back then and seems like a nice guy here haha
Like uncle you never seen long time ago in family cookout.
He looks like a cool math teacher
I'd bet David Schultz is still a man no-one in their right mind would want to mess with.
Off the roids now
That’s why you gotta be careful with old heads lol. Lotta middle aged guys in my neighborhood were scary in their young days and now they’re all peaceful, mature, and calm.
Young kids look at them like “I don’t get why everyone is scared of them…I could take him.” I’m just like…….”i don’t knowww🫤”
He seems like a friendly chap. I'm gonna bring my friends over to his house and set up a tent in his back yard.
One of your friends is going to get drunk by a small amount and then start popping off and Dr. D is going to handle him like he was a bratty dog and you guys will have to pick him up. Apologize for his behavior and slink off into the night
@@decimated550 That's okay. We'd just *VENTILATE* the walking, talking dog-dropping when he tried to "handle" us. He's a fossilized "more awn"; and, his fans are knuckle-dragging mouth-breathers. 😜😜
@@johnharrison6745- and your mother is an egg sucking dog.
Ok he didn’t slap everyone in the hallway thanks for clearing that up.
😂
His point was that he was commanded by Vince McMahon to stay in character and rough up the reporter. He noted the other wrestlers didn't try and stop him because it was "scripted" but surely you can't hit a reporter that isn't in on it
The “original”stone cold Steve Austin!!
🎯🫡
@Joe Beef Hash cry about it
I can see a whole lot of Stone Cold's mannerisms and attitude originated from Dr. D, there's no question
Almost nobody's talking about the golden era
i think stone cold is his son
It’s the second slap for me. He was there, then he wasn’t!! He went down so fast.😂😂
Lol is that fake!
The guy was 6'6" and 250 lbs. Jacked up on steroids too, I'll bet. Not a wise move to get in his face, then say, "I think this is fake."
Hahaha fr! Only if that was your mom😂😂
Just like you would be if a man of his size, bulk, height and weight open handed slapped YOU!
John Stossel is not much of a man. He got what he deserved. He is still a whiny little corporate news, puppet.
The guy got really humbled after the slaps but then obviously sued David and won like 425k
Like a weakling he is
Well dang. I'm so glad to hear that. David ha no reason to slap him just cuz the reporter had an opinion which we ALL know is true, btw. It's staged. So yeah, the reporter said nothing wrong and I'm glad he got rich out of a dumbass little 😿 that can't take criticism.
This meathead should have gone to jail. How is it any different than some street hoodlum mugging you simply for exercising freedom of expression.
@@GummySlayerLOL he was so right to slap that punk ass reporter down because:
It was funny
@@GummySlayer you sound like a feminist 😂😂
It’s hilarious how he thinks this “full version” justifies his actions…this is so 2006 lmao
That just shows us how many times he got his bell rung.
@@ROBERTMORAN-mv7eq Probably not as often as Stossel, who thought that messing with the hussle of a bunch of roided up tough guys would be a great idea ..... somehow.
It does. You must be his son. Your daddy is a work
@@ROBERTMORAN-mv7eqtoo bad he didn’t slap you
We need this guy to straighten up the media
yeah but stossel is one of the good ones. i'd have loved to see him do that to froto cuomo or piers morgan or don lemon. all those dudes are cock suckers
What? 😂 you want him to censor media more? You’re a clown
By that you mean get the media to say things you agree with? You're supposed to do your own research. But no you want to be spoon fed.
Straighten it up to say things like wrestling is real, as in not staged? 😂 you're dumb. Everyone knows it's staged.
@@MT-kx2uc if the media got slapped in the face everytime they lied they would change their tune 🤷🏻♂️
Things took a violent turn when Stossel told Schultz he believed wrestling to be fake, which prompted Schultz to slap Stossel twice in the head. Upon the second slap, Stossel ran off as Schultz continued to yell at him. Because of these events, Schultz got suspended by the New York State Athletic Commission, while John Stossel filed a lawsuit against WWE. Even though it got settled out of court, Schultz joined the ranks of wrestlers fired by WWE, despite claiming WWE management actually wanted him to hit Stossel.
No amount of goading Sshultz from Stossel should have turned violent. He deserved to get fired. With that said, anyone that thinks that WWE wrestling at that time was legit need to have their sanity checked. Of course it's all fake. But I still give credit to the wrestlers who put on a great show for their fans. The stuff that they do is amazing.
@jorgetorresto to you betas it looks cool . Alphas don’t think like you .
@@propaghandi8614 Gayest comment I’ve ever read.

@@propaghandi8614Man, that's about as gay as it gets.
@@salaciousBastard😂😂😂 that fucking comment made my day
He's aged very well.
Agreed
He acts like this extra 15 seconds of footage doesn’t bury him even more lol very confusing
I can only assume that he is as dumb as he appears. Sure, 'roids may have been a factor but he is clearly not terribly bright, which is kind of sad.
Wtf is he showing me that is different from what was shown on TV? He asked a question and he slapped the shit out of Stossel. He is acting like this tape shows that the news was lying about it but this is literally the same clip
The difference is the reporter was being a bitch
He didn't slap him that hard
1:14
Dr. D laughed
I was asking the same question.
"fake news" wrestling is real just like the " open" hand of lady justice .
The reporter was John Stossel. The second slap busted his ear drum. He later sued that dude and won. It was uncalled for. Shultz knew Stossel was meek and he took advantage of that.
Yep, once a bully, always a bully
Y'all soft.
@@notsheepish8304lmao soft😂
Stossel was an arrogant wise mouth ass
@@robertowen1648 my boss is an arrogant wise mouth
Dave Schultz looks like a clean and calm gentleman in 2006 (and arguably today) compared to his rugged hot-tempered wrestler in WWF and Stampede Wrestling.
Copious amounts of steroids back then we’ll do that to an attitude….
@@MrGfunk215
He didn’t take too many steroids.
He took them but not that many.
Hogan took way too many that’s why he went bald in his 40’s.
@@bigrod1702 OR, he could be bald because of genetics. That is a thing you know, LOL.
That was a character he played.
@@bigrod1702everyone goes bald in they 40s and if you don’t you’re lucky.
If it weren’t for Vince giving him a job that dude would probably be in prison
That could be said for quite possibly every wrestler ever
He had the same job before and after Vince. Many men were like that back then. Even those who were cops. Products of a rugged world and rugged American culture. They were raised by men and women more rugged than them. Men have lost their lives over intentionally offended other men.
Vince settled out of court. If he lied to the police and said he never told Schultz to blast Stossel then it may have been a purjury/obstruction charge which are felonies. Vince screwed up not David.
Dave Schultz got out of wrestling and became a professional bounty hunter.
Do a little research on that portion of his life, he was a real bad ass.
@@emptyhand777
Oh I'm sure he was and still is. I'm 45 and old enough to remember Dr. D. My grandpa was a man of the same type. He just didn't play and you knew not to play around w/ him it's common sense. I will look into the bounty hunting though for sure.
He got a CRT with the built in VCR on hand just to exhibit that one video😅
Well that was from 2006 before flat screen t v's were an item.
@@08magnumsrt
they existed in 2006 but not as mainstream
i mean, maybe don’t go to a person’s workplace, act impossibly smug and then call the incredibly dangerous job they do “fake”.
But it's fake lol. It's honestly more "dangerous" to be a journalist than a pretend wrestler.
Depends what type of journalist lol
That's an Open hand slap !
Its fake because it is all staged
Don't call something that is fake, fake cause a bully will slap you .
Civilised person you are
So it was fake?
Does he somehow believe this exonerates him? Lmao
Right lololol
He barely hit Stossel
EXCELLENT POINT
I dont believe he ever said that this video exonerates him?? HE basically exposed an extended version of the interview that was never shown. Which does corroborate his version and reasoning for the slaps.
😂😂😂
Ok thanks Dr. D, seeing the whole thing really turned my perception around. Now I see that you totally blasted that dude (twice!) for no real logical reason other than mad feelings.
Right, way to clear things up!🤣 what an A-hole
Look at him hurting your feelings over the internet all these years later haha
I don’t know how he thought this video made him look any better
His boss told him to blast him. The man was following orders.
@@aidanmichaelov7415 I was thinking the same thing. It reminded me of when former GB Packer Mark Chmura was on trial for sexual assault, and he indignantly declared the facts of the trial would set the record straight and clear his good name. OK, the facts of the trial were that you and your neighbor came home drunk to his house full of drunk teenage girls and you, a professional athlete in your 30s, got everyone even more drunk and then stripped down to your underwear and got into the hot tub with them on your lap. Sorry we doubted you, boy scout...
You don’t put your hands on people unless you feel threatened. He was no threat to this bully! Can’t take criticism, and mentally deranged.
Facts
He did it because he knew he was safe
You obviously don’t understand how condescending John Stossel was and his hatred for wrestling. It was a different era where kayfabe had to be upheld, and calling wrestling fake to guys that are prone to injury all the time is not what you say to a legitimate tough guy. Everyone growing up these days are a bunch of pansies.
It was necessary
Need some kleenex??
I think that slap was worth a few hundred thousand to Stossel. I would have let him slap me for that
Yeah, and he had medical problems and pain for years afterwards. Great deal.
@@7beers For that amount of money it is a great deal... Maybe not for you but for 99.9% of the planet it is really good deal!
This dude was my favorite wrestlers back in the early 80's. I believe this slap ended his career
You believe it because it did lol.
@@realWorsin
Yeah, that slap was the start of Hulk Hogan's career
and the owner shot this guy who couldn't handle the fact that what he did was acting and not wrestling. it was always fake not matter how hard u slapped that reporter. its fake fake fake. it never even looked real to begin with. we all can clearly see its fake as hell
@@Ghost-tx4ft
The owner shot who? What are you talking about?
@RickJamesGhostGuns lmao still trying to figure it out
Story time!
I went to an Indy show and David Schultz was on the card. It was after the whole 20/20 debacle and he came over and he just stood over me. I was sitting like in the front row and he just stood there and stood over me and just GLARED down at me. And I... could not bring my head up. I could not look him in the eyes because I was terrified of the guy.
He’s a scary SOB
@@GeauxRight777 Yeppers.
What’s the 20/20 debacle? Something like Plan B?
Gay
@@marcbaigrie2295 Schultz you mean?
I love the look on his face when he says standard questions lol. For a moment he looked moderately amused lol😅😅😅
Umm…did he think this would make it look justified?
It was justified
Lmao how was it not justified? Or are you one of those people who thinks actions don't have consequences?
Stossel couldn't see that coming😂
@handelknob Oh he knew it was coming! He was looking for an easy pay day just like 13% race hustlers do. Attacking police officers so they can sue the city, falsely claiming police brutality aided by MSM reporters hoping for a racist police story they can fabricate for their lunatic liberal viewers!!!
He transformed into such a different person. Just look at him
yes this is his post steroids phase in life, he looks rather well put together
Did that version of the video seem exactly like the original version to anyone else?
I'm coming down there to get a autograph and ya better not slap me! ......Shoot I better have a camera crew with me , Just in case!🤣
Still crazy after all these years...
High school bully that never grew up.
And people think stossel is weak or foolish or something....dude made a quarter mil by saying a few words to a hyper sensitive cretin.
Or the reporter is an effeminate male that never reached manhood.
Bullying? The reporter came to his place of work and disrespected him to his face. What did you expect to happen?
Weasel got checked... love it
Hmm he seems to think the lawyers gave him some new piece of the puzzle. They probably figured he already lost the case what does it matter if we just confirm what everyone already knew.
The most clean cut and soft spoken I've ever seen Dr. D
That statement was haunting and pissing him off since long time and he finally decided to give it back with all he has got with his one hand slap one after the other.
And it ruined his wrestling career lol
@@Antoniorexi hope so, he deserved that.
Happy with the 1st video and Happy with this !
Dave went from looking like a Bad-ass to looking like my CPA..............
That version of the video just confirms the other ones. Stossel walked into the wrong place, wrong guy at the wrong time with the wrong questions but Dr D must have known he’d get into big trouble for hitting him. I guess he just didn’t care.
Wrong place, wrong guy? True, Stossel had no business calling his mother and sister all those foul names but still...
🤪🤪🤪🤪🤪🤪🤪🤪🤪🤪🤪🤪🤪🤪🤪🤪🤪🤪🤪🤪🤪🤪🤪🤪🤪🤪🤪🤪🤪🤪🤪🤪🤪🤪
he looks like a math professor now, wild
He don’t break character till he don’t the DVD 📀 commentary. 🤣😂😂
2:30 dont come near me
dont buck me
dont make me going back into character and hurt somebody 😂
ROTFL! That looks like the exact same footage I saw on 20/20. ROTFL! What the heck is this guy talking about????????????
He's an idiot
Looks exactly what I seen on TV lol
So anyone who decides they want to drop the F-word in front of a pro wrestler will think twice...And they have ever since.
Not really. I'd let him slap me a few times for the settlement that reporter got.
It’s not Geraldo. It’s David Schultz slapping John Stossel
I remember watching this on 20/20 when it first came out. We were talking about open hand slap for years after that 😂. I can't believe this is the same guy. He looks so different.
How does what David showed there make it seem better? Is he trying to say that because other wrestlers didn’t intervene that it wasn’t a big deal?
No, he's trying to say he was provoked beforehand and that somehow makes it better.
PLOT TWIST:
When they stopped rolling, he slapped everyone behind the camera that conducted this interview....
Ladies and gentlemen, the ORIGINAL Stone Cold.
How did this help? Can’t see he’s not honest😂
I respect for standing up for himself. He should had slap him a litle more 😂😂😂😂
Mr. Fuji was just waiting for his sushi 🍣
He didn’t get upset because he said wrestling is fake, he got upset because he said he’s going to ask a question and ended up stating an opinion, I can’t blame him for being upset at that
Are you sincerely trying to condone him smacking a reporter?
@@jamninety sarcasm lol
@@DRIXER999 Forgive me, I tend to be retarded.
It’s a shame that modern promotions won’t let the guys have cool characters like this anymore.
It’s because of political correctness

Yeah, this is what happens when you abuse steroids and takes too many hits to the head, you think you are justifed in punching others.
@@RightfootWestHam he was justified. You don’t come into someone’s place or work, disrespect them, and expect nothing to happen.
@@Havok999 The topic: "Does he really think this version vindicates him ?! … I’m stunned actually but it’s also hilarious "
You: "he was justified. You don’t come into someone’s place or work, disrespect them, and expect nothing to happen."
You are off the topic.
@@Havok999 You can hold the opinion that its justified to take steroids, its still off the topic. Going off topic is disrespectful.
@@RightfootWestHam I didn’t say anything about steroids. I don’t agree with steroid use. I think both men were in the wrong in a way, but the reporter was looking for that reaction out of the wrestler for a viral moment, which he got
Some people only understand violence. Stossel is one of those people.
He learned it’s a tough business
Aw man, totally missed opportunity...y'all know they shoulda told him right at the end, "thanks for the interview, oh & btw, we both think this is fake..."
After reviewing this video evidence your definitely NOT INNOCENT sir😂
He is the same old beast of yesteryear.
I respect David for not standing there and let a man disrespect him
Schultz shouldn't have slapped Stossel, even if McMahon told him to. It was wrong. That being said, Stossel _was_ trying to provoke some sort of angry reaction from Schultz, because it made for a better interview, and he should have known not to use the word "fake." Professional wrestlers hate that word. It's dismissive of what they do. They put their bodies on the line for the entertainment of the fans. That's not fake. Wrestlers have been injured and killed in the ring. That's not fake. The flying, the hits, the pain, that's not fake. And they've seen guys they know end up with nothing but broken bodies, broken minds and broken spirits when their time in the spotlight has passed. That's definitely not fake. I don't defend what Schultz did, but I understand. For someone to dismiss your life's work as fake is enraging. Even Neil Armstrong once punched a moon landing denier. And I'm pretty sure that Stossel has said to himself, "Man, I really shouldn't have said that to him. That made him mad."
That was Buzz Aldrin that punched the moon landing denier, otherwise, yeah, but the moon landing was real. Stossel's whole schtick is asking hard or crossways questions, that's his _whole thing._ Assault is assault, even in kayfabe. Every wrestler doesn't like it, but every wrestler should expect it, just like MMA fighters should expect the dipshits that call MMA matches sweaty man love, or whatever. You can get angry like a dumbass, or shake your head and i don't know, generate an intellectual response?
See, the problem is people MIGHT at least understand all that IF wrestlers like Shultz didn't keep insisting what they do is exactly the same as other sports when it isn't. If they admit what they do is like the Harlem Globetrotters but with more risk to the body, that's one thing. But to keep saying what they do is like the Dallas Cowboys, THAT'S fraudulent because many people consider pure authentic competition sacred. Pre-determining and fixing the result of a sporting event is the one thing guaranteed to get you permanently banned from that sport. THAT'S what too many people involved with wrestling don't get. There are millions who will respond to this with "If you are putting your body through all this damage for something that isn't a real sport, why can't you have some pride and do that for a real sport like so many others do?"
@@rowdycmoore I've watched a lot of wrestling. I've never heard a wrestler, or even heard _of_ a wrestler, "insisting" that professional wrestling is exactly the same as football or baseball or boxing or any other sport. I've never heard one say "it's not scripted, it's all real." (And it's not "predetermining" or "fixing" the results, it's scripted. They work from a script, like actors in a TV show....Wait a minute, I get it! They're not "like" actors in a TV show, they _are_ actors in a TV show! It's not a real competition! It's a TV show, like Star Trek or The Mandalorian or The Twilight Zone. Imagine that!) Maybe you can tell me when and where you heard a professional wrestler "insist" that all of it's real. The overwhelming majority of wrestling fans are aware that these dramatic conflicts we see (say, when Rick Martel "blinded" Jake Roberts with an atomizer so Roberts challenged Martel to a special "blindfold match" and beat him) aren't real conflicts. We're not stupid. It's a scripted TV show and everyone knows it. Again, please point me to the video of a professional wrestler saying in an interview that what he or she does is as real as other sports and that none of it is scripted (and I'm talking about a legitimate interview, not an interview like this one or a wrestler being "interviewed" for a wrestling TV show). You know what wasn't scripted, though? Chris Benoit losing his mind from too many hits in the head and taking his and his family's lives. Owen Hart falling 70 feet from the ceiling into the ring and dying as a result. Those things definitely happened. Your idiotic point is....well, idiotic.
@@gspendlove I have no idea how long you've watched wrestling, but the very definition of "kayfabe" comes from the time when those behind wrestling were in fact doing everything in their abilities to MAKE people think what they were doing was 100 percent competition. Bullshit rules like wrestlers always having to be in character 24/7 and heels/babyfaces never being allowed to be seen together in public. Imagine if Josh Brolin had to be made up as Thanos and not be seen with Chris Evans or Robert Downey Jr for at least all of Avengers Endgame's theatrical run. That's the crap wresters were made to do. You ask for any footage of wrestlers insisting what they do is real - that is LITERALLY what Shultz did with Stossel then. And if that's not enough, I have frequently heard people like Jim Cornette whine that wrestling died once those involved were willing to admit it's a staged show "We're not stupid?" Guess what - people like Cornette, Verne Gagne, Phil Mushnick and the elder Vince J McMahon THOUGHT you were stupid, constantly presenting their act as an actual sport and truly thinking you DID believe it was just like football. And of course no one with an ounce of intelligence really believed that - they made jokes about wrestling being fake on Mork & Mindy for frak's sake! But the people running wrestling up until Vince K McMahon came along DID keep telling people it was real competition and thinking people believed it, and to steal a line from Parks & Recreation: "Okay, but that's worse. You do know why that's worse, right"
''What the hell is wrong with ya?...That's the open hand slap!!!''....I LOVE that!!!
The reporter loved the 425k from the lawsuit even more. 🤣

Schultz could have showed some class and admitted he was out of line and regretted his violent actions, but sadly it appears he didn't learn a thing from the incident.
It's no wonder someone with his temper was fired from professional wrestling before it cost them even more than the $280,000 Stossel was awarded.
Agreed. Guys like this get away with it sometimes but I've seen so many times when they get what they deserve out on the street. He obviously got lucky.

Also not sure if you are aware but many fans and other wrestlers have backed up SCHULTZ for slapping STOSSELL and stated that they would have hit STOSSELL harder.
Also STOSSELL only got a big payout because he faked an injury with a crooked doctor.

@@Liberty7628no
No way he ever hit another wrestler as hard as he hit Stossel. He WANTED to hurt him while wrestlers always pulled their punches on one another to keep them from hurting one another.
@@rowdycmoore nope, that's how hard they hit. You clearly never watched wrestling 🙄.
@@nightrat42 You clearly never watched wrestling from THAT time period. I will grant you wrestlers today MIGHT hit each other harder because they are nowadays obsessed with actually getting banged up IN ORDER to claim what they di is just the same as actual sports and that the detail that their results are pre-determined should be just a minor one. But I promise you someone like Shultz was still from a time where wrestlers did everything they could to NOT hurt one another while conning their audience into thinking they were. And I'd have been perfectly fine with that within the confines of the show itself IF guys like Shultz and Jim Cornette were not constantly in belief that lying to people even after the show was over was the only way wrestling could succeed.
"leave me alone, but have a nice life" lol
You think it's fake?! Huh umfffff!! What do you mean
Stossel: "I didn't say I don't believe you're a coked up lunatic on steroids. You most definitly are. I said I thought thw performance was fake"
I never liked Stossel but I always admired how he could get knocked to the floor twice and still hang onto that mic. Maybe it was glued to his hand.
I mean, you walk up to any business and call it bulls***, expect to get smacked. That’s just a life lesson
@@dustindustindontworry-jz8dh Most people think like that. It's called accountability.
And now he slaps his wife ON FILM. Monster, baby, bully.
It’s called assault unless he was in on it.
I thought the thumbnail picture was of Dr D and Dan Savern! Lol. I really did at first.
Even after so many year he still thinks he did the right thing. Unbelievable!
Johnboy still feels it when he wakes up every morning
@@TwoTwentyTampaJohnBoy still has more money than this washed up has been
@@cnrails that supposed to mean something?
@@TwoTwentyTampa yeah, it was supposed to mean something. If you weren’t illiterate, you would’ve figured that out.
Dats coz it WAS the right thing he did..still is😂😂😂😂
£250,000 per slap! That's real
Lol, that unseen footage doesn't do anything to justify Schultz's action.
He should smack CNN, MSNBC, CBS, BBC, PBS, NPR, ETC ETC
lol 1:11.
Schultz was set up by Vince McMahon.
Awa, nwa or wccw should have used Schultz after the 20/20 segment.
That was an open hand punch.
Didn't Stossel settle out of court for $425,000? Expensive slap that was.
If Mike Tyson were asking him the same question would he have reacted the same? The answer is no, this guy knows he's bigger and stronger than stossel, at the end of the day he is just a bully and a coward.
exactly
