RoryFice Posted May 7, 2016 Share Posted May 7, 2016 Watched the Rude/Warrior Summerslam 1989 match earlier, and i'll never get tired of hearing Ventura in this piece of commentary after Warrior hit Rude with the Intercontinental belt outside of the ring  Ventura; "Hit him with the belt, that should be a Disqualification" "Where the hell is the referee"?  Schiavone; "That's outside of the ring Jessie"  Ventura; "So what"  Schiavone; "As much as it could be a count out here"  Ventura; "What are you going to tell me Schiavone, you can shoot someone outside the ring, as long as it's outside the ring"? "Your'e even dumber than Monsoon"  Brilliant as he's spot fucking on. Ventura was usually good at that sort of thing though TBH.  ----------------------------------------  Another LOL worthy piece of commentary from Summerslam '89. During the buildup video for the Warrior/Rude match, they showed a clip of Warrior bearing Haku and after the match, Rude attacked Warrior and beat him down and piledrove him etc, The bell kept ringing as it does when a match is over and there's an aftermath beating. Good old Lord Alfred Hayes said "I don't know what the referees decision is going to be because this is the aftermath of when the Warrior actually won"  Well Warrior won his match and some heels beat him up Alfred, what decision has the ref to make exactly? That's a brilliant bit of Ventura commentary at Summerslam 89 too. He clearly detests Warrior and makes no effort to hide it. Schiavone and him made a pretty good pairing on that show.

Keith Houchen Posted May 7, 2016 Share Posted May 7, 2016 Â Can't remember it exactly but once Dusty Rhodes and Sapphire were in a mix tag match, Fink announced "Approaching the ring, at a combined weight of 475lbs" Â Heenan - "Is that right, I don't think it is" Monsoon - "Why do you say that" Heenan - "Well Sapphire must be 400lbs on her own Monsoon - "Will you stop" Â Brilliant! Credit where credit is due: that was Jesse Ventura at WM6. Â Was it really? Â Thanks for the correction! Â Still a great zinger. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted May 8, 2016 Share Posted May 8, 2016 Another great one from The Brain on Hogans music. Â "This is my 2nd favourite song!" Â "I'm almost afraid to ask... what's your favourite?" Â "All the rest are tied." I've ripped this off SO many times, and always had to explain it afterwards. I despair, but live in hope. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
royaltenenbaum Posted May 8, 2016 Share Posted May 8, 2016 Great thread! Want to add this zinger from The Brain at Summerslam 91, during Perfect - Bret; just after Bret rips Perfect's singlet, there's a cut to Stu and Helen Hart watching on: Â Monsoon: Concerned look on the face of Stu and Helen Hart as they watch on... Heenan: You know why they're concerned? They snuck in. They're scared the usher will get them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members air_raid Posted May 8, 2016 Paid Members Share Posted May 8, 2016 The Ventura line you guys were trying to remember was actually : Â "Wait a minute, Gorilla, wait just a minute! They said with a combined weight of 465 pounds? You're telling me Rhodes only weighs 200?! Because I know damn well Sapphire weighs two and a half! 565 I might buy, but no 465!"

Porkchopcash Posted May 8, 2016 Share Posted May 8, 2016 I found funny, it's not one of his best but when Heenan said his mail man had hunchback from carrying all his get well cards and letters after Hogan done his neck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators PowerButchi Posted May 9, 2016 Moderators Share Posted May 9, 2016 Lawler had one that floored me in 98 with, "There's nothing wrong with dating younger women, until you have to drop them off at school."While it was a backstage promo and not on commentary him spitting hot fire at Dustin and Terri Runnels on Raw in May 97 is the greatest thing ever.https://youtu.be/6R4BWXnrZ1o  In all fairness though, whenever Lawler calls someone a "fag" it means he's cutting an ace promo.

Moderators PowerButchi Posted May 9, 2016 Moderators Share Posted May 9, 2016 Also, Scott Bowden (massively underrated a talent) gives Randy Hales pelters. Look at Dave Brown's legit disgust   And then Hales a few years later gets a verbal shellacking again, this time along with The King and Too Sexy Brian Christopher by Doug Gilbert.

Jon-Carr_92 Posted May 13, 2016 Share Posted May 13, 2016 WrestleMania X8 is a funny one JR: The APA have to be favourites in this match King: Speaking of favourites, my favourite tag team in the WWF are in the ring right now. JR: Who's that? The Dudleyz? King: No. Stacy Kiebler's left leg and her right one Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
