I agree you sound like a man who knows wrestling. Just like Ricky the dragon steamboats deep arm drags,arn anderson's spine buster.

He was a good but stiff worker.

@@zachgreen4352 yeah he was real stiff. They don't guys like Holly anymore I would have loved to see him in wcw back in the day. He could have been booked way better.

FACTS!!! Best ever in my opinion!!!

@@pk_1 he had a good dropkick, Stings was better.

He actually was having a rise back in 2003 or 2004 I forgot but in between those 2. WWE was just beginning to push him into one of the top guys but he got his neck broken very soon and his pushed ended

@@secrets.295 yeah he actually had a wwe title match against Brock lesner at the royal rumble

Pretty much. No charisma. Zero promo skills. His in ring work sucked. A lower mid carder at best. His partner Crash Holly even died as well.

That low on the card he ended up being with the WWF for 15 years. Vince didn't even realise I bet. Like Mr Burns with Homer 😭

@Josh Traffanstedt Homer has likable qualities. I'd like to see Lenny or Carl do a shoot on him though

No doubt hes a veteran though

Why would Bob Holly steal a Rolex and some cash from Mr. Kennedy though, lol.. makes no sense at all.

@@maxbrower2139 Because Kennedy was getting paid more than Sparky Plug. Kennedy was in the middle of a big push, and Holly was basically getting the same pay he was making 12 years earlier. Bob Holly probably figured he earned that Rolex.

I just think of big show getting cracked with a trash can

at least he was right about it. They were disrespectful punks. They got what they deserved.

Like what? He "hurt" Matt on tough enough by stiffing him with a few boots like would happen in any match throughout a wrestling career. Or do you mean when Brock dropped him and Bob broke his neck? They both agree and admit it was a botch and no one is to blame, and Bob didn't sandbag Brock. Or when he sliced his back open on the table? Bob was always known as locker room bully but I don't recall him beating the shit out of people like The Acolytes or anything. By all accounts, he was a safe in-ring worker, regardless of how you may feel about him personally.

@@higler. That isn't like any match that isn't a universally condemned train wreck. Lesner dropped holly on his head on purpose and nobody cared.

You need to do your research. Both Bob and Brock have said multiple times that it was an accident@@redrick8900

So he Forced Labored them ?

I think you need to go back and watch the spot again. Holly is an ass, but DDPs injury was DDP over rotating on his superplex and landing high and folding himself in half.

Holly always took liberties on the younger guys set to go higher on the card, on a trajectory to go higher than him. Very bitter and his best time in the business was when crash came in and gave some color to a team.

Sounds like Rene Dupree is STILL pissed, too.

Nah dude, Holly was a dick but no sandbagging occurred. Earlier in the match Holly potatoed DDP (he had a reputation of being stiff with his punches), DDP was still groggy from the punch when he went for the superplex and messed it up, over-rotating so much that when he landed his body folded like a deck chair, damaging a disc in his back, he also gave Holly an unintentional receipt as his leg swung over and kicked Holly in the balls upon landing.

Are you serious???

Where you working?

@@KingKhanate1997 it's a distribution center for Duluth trading in Iowa. I worked 3 days, got covid and couldn't do anything for 6 weeks and by the time I could go back, I said fuck it. How am I supposed to take him serious if he denies who he is or was. I'm not dealing with some dudes issues. He snapped when I asked about an inspection sheet, I apologized and he says, yeah! Sorry fixes everything don't it? Like a dick. We even had some good conversation on working out and the steroid business, but I'm not walking on egg shells for that bullshit. I took covid as a sign and made the choice to go a different direction.

Lol this sounds like you stole this story from the movie the wrestler lol..sounds like your trolling.

@@macadonis9242 I swear on my kids I'm not, he lives in dubuque Iowa with his wife karen I believe. The fucking guy ate hamburger for every break. I seen his scars from brock lesnar. I'm the opposite of a troll. I hate liars.

Lol no it was: "I got one of those little TV ideas for you" "Whats that Bob?" "I WIN THE TITLE!" 😂

SIDEWALK SLAM 📢

​@@zitofan4life No the Alabama slam

Dude and his dropkick! I dunno how a man his size just floats and lands it perfect everytime.

Look up the interview he did with Bob on his old podcast. He said Bob was the easiest guy he ever worked with as head of talent. He wished he had more Bob Holly's on the roster from that standpoint.

@@RobwLPOC All of these guys are so 2 faced Jim Ross is no saint himself

Nah dude, JR loved him. There's a reason why this dick spent 15 years in WWE.

@@MrV41N But he is right tho

JBL was my dude... But I always root for the heels... They make the show...

Oh, JBL.. you mean the guy who took a cheap-shot on a stitched-up wound of Blue Meanie live on PPV, got manboobs after getting off the gas and who bullied an openly bipolar man in Mauro Ranallo, assumably for being jealous that all he was known for as a commentator was saying "Maggle" and yelling stupid shit. What a maneuver!! What a legend!!11

@@maxbrower2139 He's an absolute asshole as well don't get me wrong, but at least he got what he deserved in multiple ways. Got knocked out in the brawl-for-all and let Stevie Richards hit him as hard as he could with a chair. Not only that but at least he's good at something, which is being a good heel overall.

JBL was an actual bully though and actually intentionally hurt wrestlers in the ring. But that's cool cause he's not Bob? what a weird ass double standard

His drop kick is so good to, especially since he's fucking huge and it looks so easy for him.

You can never have too much BBQ sauce.

conrads a fucking money mark

Maybe he finally realized what a cunt he was for so long.

Nice try, Bob

Holly was my third favorite wrestler behind Rock and Austin believe it or not-- without knowing the backstage politics.. and I was a kid. I was glad he got the push against Brock at the time. Very decent wrestler, likeable tough guy gimmick.

If he was he would have had a longer career at WWE.

@@darlinbood3991 he was there a long while Behind the scenes

If stooge means he told his bro “hey dude that asshole no one likes went through your bag for pain pills” yeah he’s a stooge

Yep....remember that image as well.

Yup, against RVD and Bob finished that match. They both talk highly of working with each other.

@@higler.probably Holly’s best match ever performed besides his hardcore championship run in the 2000s

Fully agree FaktFitness

Are you sure about that? He's had his share of fans over the years. I know, I grew up with it. I'm guessing you didn't.

Well he wouldnt have been fired if he was still drawing. You are on point.

shup up he was a good wrestler with the best dropkick in the BIZ!!!!!

And Simon dean did?

Yeah, his issue was that he was a dickhead. Real big man to go and bully trainees who can't fight back. Pathetic prick.

@@thomass789 Yep, to put it lightly he was an arsehole. Even in an interview talking about it he was blazè and just said "thats the way I am and everybody knows that".

His issue was trying to get those sissy tough enough to not be so soft. God bless this great American hero

@@thomass789 I wouldn't call Bob a Dickhead was he as bad as JBL? I highly doubt it

@@lamar1990lg You do realize that they both can be dickheads, right? Lol it doesn't have to be one or the other. Haha

He should be in the HOF just for his 16 year tenure.

They’d eat him alive

They didn't want him

He wouldn’t have last long because they would of bullied him lol

He had the best dropkick in the business at some point.

Loved the wrestler, hated the person.

Never had any interest in him .. I think it was his look ... He just looked plain or something ? Maybe I missed out

@@AHeroAlmost I liked the hardcore and crash era

I became a Holly fan during the JOB squad and always enjoyed him after

The WWE HoF is a joke, however introducting the three Hollys as you laid out would be a great idea, regardless.

Such a good book! Bob really opens up and shows his personality and seems like a good guy overall. It helps to explain so much of his career and the bullshit people say about him.

Jr died inside when his wife died

I have heard all the main guys say nothing but good things about him. Only guys who didn't last and careers went nowhere I have heard complaining. Maven and charlie Haas off the top of my head were mentored under Bob. They talked about him being tough on them and looking back we're glad he was, even if they didn't feel the same way some days back then. Look at it logicaly= 1.They kept an asshole bully for 15 years who wasn't a draw only a carpenter because they wanted a cancer in the locker room? 2. The locker room leader The Undertaker took the Big show aside over an attitude problem must have been afraid to confront Bob over all these years of being a miserable prick and a bully.? It is not like he was in the BSK and it's not like he and the undertaker were overly close (mutual respect etc though) 3. He was an out-of-line A-hole to the young prospects coming in so they just kept putting the young guys with him as a mentorship position to show them the ropes hoping he would run them off? That makes absolutely no sense... Bob admits, he was tough on the new guys until they got it, how tough depended on how well they listened. Bob and others all say Bob was a straight cat who was going to sugar coat NOTHING and if they screwed up he would rip them a new one and tell them what they did wrong in no uncertain terms. Not the same thing as being a bully and picking on people for the sake of being an asshole wanting to make someone's life miserable

@@RobwLPOC Is that you Bob? But seriously, Bob never accomplished anything and that made him a bitter, resentful prick who had to take it out on people who he felt he was above/ couldn't retaliate. Textbook bully

You're so full of shit it's unreal

RVD has great things to say about working with Bob...

They should had release him after the attitude era ended.

@@ottoconde5988 I agree he offered nothing in the ra era and at that point there was nothing hardcore about him

As a kid I liked him. I remember him having programs with Brock and Undertaker.

LMAO if Matt or anyone else who wants to wrestle can't handle a little intensity and some stiff boots then they were NEVER going to make it. Bob taught the most important lesson in a matter of seconds, and the kid just fucking cries abourt it(literally cries..) He was never going to be a wrestler, he was just some kid who made it on a MTV TV Show and couldn't cut it. RVD stiffed the shit out of people with his kicks, he admits it, but that's different? No, that's wrestling, shit happens when you're trying to blur the line between worked and real, sometimes you land on the real side of the line for a moment or two.

@@higler. When you fuck up someone’s teeth and give them a black eye that’s a little different than just showing someone they can’t do it. He just as easily could have just told the dude how shit he was and made him feel like shit till he quit.
