Jesse and Gorilla Monsoon- best duo ever whom announced pro wrestling.

@@mjones2305 the only thing better was when Gorilla would say to The Brain…..”Would you stop it!” 😂

I just shed a tear

He really is a great storyteller 💯

Go watch Will Sasso do his Jesse Ventura Impersonation!! It's dead on lol

Well why don’t you tell me what I said? You weren’t there. I’m a patriot, I spend 6 months of the year down in Mexico in the Baja. I have solar panels and I eat fish tacos. But why don’t you tell me what I said? 9/11 was an inside job. I never said that. Nope. Well why don’t you tell me what I said?

@Miguel Stein 😅🤣😅 And he has the head shifting down to an art lmao

So could Jesse

It’s a punishing business, and one where even the talent are manipulated into a state of settling for less and then turning on others who might speak up about such issues. Jesse Ventura has been way ahead of his time on this, and his seasoned status has given him the opportunity to push such issues to the front without being silenced.

its called a union, and the boyz wont touch it...

Where?! My days will fly by from now on

@@rampageclover9788 under there...

Yeah, most delusional guy I ever heard.. so yeah he can babble on for days

@@kylejoseph7849 Doesn't sound very delusional here.

It went pretty much the opposite of how you say, he was a disaster by almost all accounts

@@thehammockdistrict5355 He was loved there, it's his family who were hated the most..

Would love if he ran for president

@@thehammockdistrict5355 When he became governor there was a four billion dollar surplus in the state coffers. When he left, there was a four and a half billion dollar deficit in the state coffers. That pretty much sums up his governorship.

They hated him. His approval was so low that he didn't bother to run again. He turned a huge surplus into a huge deficit.

Would have made a much better president than what we had the last 4 years and currently have.

And voices

Says Jesse Ventura

just ask him, he will tell you

*One of the best most brilliant minds ever? Goodness, what nonsense. Ventura is a crackpot conspiracy theorist who is incredibly thin-skinned and engages in pure self-pity whenever he's criticised.*

yep, classic line

One of the only lines which tops that for me is "I'll get all the sleep I need when I'm dead" by Wade Garrett ( Sam Elliott ) in Road House

@@reallymysterious4520 Agreed - great line.

@@reallymysterious4520 That line was actually taken from a 1976 Warren Zevon song called "I'll Sleep When I'm Dead" Good tune off his 1976 self titled album/CD.

@@mlbowen6476 Thanks for that !

2nd best. Heenan was the absolute best when it came to color commentary

@@projectgraham414 i would say they were 50/50

JR

@@creed9922 JR was the best at Play by Play. Jesse was the best IMO on color Commentator, like Jerry Lawler & Bobby Heenan.

He didn’t mesh well with JR. JR was jealous that Ventura was making way more than him. JR has admitted it.

And do what?

@@filthiestfish commentary...

@@wolfmanscott8669 At this point in his life, I have to believe that he would have to be thrown a huge pile of money to agree to do commentary. It wouldn't do anything for him and it wouldn't do anything for AEW.

@@filthiestfish it would only be cool as a one off. But that’s pretty much it. They have enough guys on commentary.

@@TheFailedmessiah what about all the talk from AEW fans that want JR off of commentary?

I understood this reference!

Jesse doesn’t have time to bleed.

He was the first to job to the predator though. To him, he was a jabroni.

S!mp McMahon

Jesse Dentura

Especially the tag team matches with Adrian Adonis in the AWA

Please come back JESSE VENTURA YOUR THE BEST OF ALL TIME GREATEST G.O.A.T

Fucking Love You Chris. 😁😁

And Mr. V, your Badd Ass sir soo soo much words can't explain. 💯💯💯❤️‍🔥

Jesse is the only proper legend

What do you mean they don't pay taxes can you be more specific how would you know that

@@VSMOKE1 try reading, u might learn on your own for once

So what?

What story

Thats, actually kind of fucking brilliant for a cameo backstage, that’s a good line, he probably won’t drop the rest of that quote though lol 😂

What did warrior beat him on?never heard that story

@@Savage-sr6lh On getting out of WWF and keeping the Name Ultimate Warrior. Vince is a lawyer and went to law school. Even though he hates lawyers he's a pretty good 1 and almost never lost. He either won or settled out of court. But it was never a Flat out "L". Never Lost, especially to rookies. Now I don't know who he lost to 1st? If it was Jesse or Ultimate. My guess is Warrior. Warrior got out of WWE with a bad taste in his mouth but it was at the same time a legit way out with almost no consequences. Other people would pay back the contract or so. Warrior got kicked out Scott free. He did it like 2 or 3 times. No 1 has done that neither without paying a major consequence. I'm pretty sure Vince doesn't like someone to leave without taking a hit or knowing they'll be crawling back. Which usually happens. I think Warrior beat him like a couple of times but I'm pretty sure Vince down played the situations because of his ego to lose at anything. He's very competitive. When Warrior got kicked out the 1st time before Wrestle Mania 6 Vince told Warrior how much would he want to get paid to do Wrestle Mania. Warrior didn't know how much to charge and didn't know about pricing and charging. So he asked Ahmed Johnson for some advice. Johnson told Warrior "Well, you should get paid what Hogan is going to get paid, you're going to take his spot so it makes sense." That amount was $1million. Warrior told Vince the price. Vince agreed, but the Warrior made him sign a hand written paper that he agreed with his signature. After the match Vince payed Hogan but never paid Warrior the million for the match. I think Vince gave him a raise but it was not the million he sign off to. So time went on and on and Warrior was asking for the money over Wrestle Mania. Vince never wanted to pay him and that's when the Warrior said he wasn't going to go out the ring unless he paid the money Vinced agreed to. Vince said okay and when he came back in Vince fired Warrior and I think Jake the Snake couldn't get his title shot because he needed Warrior in it. But ... it was Vince's fault for not paying Warrior. And if Vince wanted to make Jake the Champion he could have done it with or without the Warrior. He's the CEO for goodness sake.

@@Savage-sr6lh Warrior got kicked out. Everyone was waiting for him to come crawling back because everyone usually does. But Warrior never did and didn't depend on just wrestling to survive. This guy was really poor back then and could live off of the money he already earned in WWF. I think they went to court and Warrior showed the paper with Vince's signature in it. I can't remember if they settled or something but I think the judge was on Warrior's side. The 2nd time they kicked Warrior out was for steroid usage. The government was pressing WWF hard over steroid usage. That's when Vince made Shawn Michaels and Brett hart world champions to show the audience that steroid bodies didn't = Wrestling champions. Out of the whole rooster that used steroids they only kicked out the British bulldog and Warrior 😐??? Shoot even Vince was using the roads when he wrestled. Lol 😂! Warrior felt they did this on purpose to him because he he was charging generously the 2nd time around and this was a good way to show the world WWF was kicking out steroid users out and didn't agree with it 😐...? Also they didn't have to pay him that much am cut his contract legitimately. But Warrior still got out without any consequences, again.

@@Savage-sr6lh I think the 3rd time was when Warrior's father passed away and he didn't attend the shows. its been a while but The problem with this 1 was that I think WWF use to go to convention centers to do samples of merchandise ideas they had to sell later on. And warrior had this phrase "Always Believe" and he registered it. I think all the wrestlers would go to it to help promote the merchandise WWF would want to sell to buyers to make more money. And they told Warrior especially not to go that day. I think when he use to wrestle back then he would always see the conventional sells and knew how they worked. He surprisingly showed up and they stole his phrase and used it without his permission. When he did this 3rd contract with Vince Warrior in the contract said he would work for the WWF if they paid him X amount of dollars and they let him plug his merchandise and his comic book. And he'll cut the contract if they miss used anything of Warrior's intellectual property or him. And since they used his phrase without his permission, and it was copyrighted? Uff....😥! That was an automatic win for Warrior. Since Warrior yelled and screamed in promos and did steroids, i think they thought he wasn't that sharp. Also they never thought he would put up a fight. But he did. And won this 1. I think he got out of wrestling Scott free and they payed him the rest of the contract. I think they also payed for using his phrase.

@@Savage-sr6lh after this I think Vince wanted to run the Warrior out and made sure he never got to Use the name Ultimate Warrior to shut him out of buisness. Vince tried to copyright the name Ultimate Warrior to strip him of money and Vince can keep all of Warrior's properties as his own to be the complete owner. Ultimate Warrior during this battle with Vince registered his name permanently to Warrior so he can use the name for buisness $$$. That way U.W. can use the name Warrior because it's his now government name. Vince and Warrior fought over who was the originator of the Ultimate Warrior name and again Warrior won. So every time the WWE used the Ultimate Warrior's merchandise they had to talk to him 1st, negotiate, and cut him a check. Warrior usually got away with branching out of the WWF without a consequence. He basically got dismissed but didn't have to pay anything the back to the WWF. WWF would usually mess up in the contract, tried to fire him, he would take them to court, the court would be on his side, Warrior would cut his contract short, but he would still get paid extra.

I was entertained by his mind and truth. Witty is an amazing thing Jesse Ventura has.

Lol you sound jealous hilarious

@@charronrose68 I'm not all that jealous. I mean, it would be nice to have all that money and get to run a huge entertainment corporation, but it's also nice to be a decent human being that cares for others and treats people with respect. I guess that's a wash.

@@charronrose68 Lol you sound simpy hilarious

@@jonlavigne3270 yes including paying royalties to it's top wrestlers.

@@rojayreid908 every wrestler deserves royalties, the amount should vary of course

I would love to see the back and forth between him JR.

Imagine NO

He’s who I most want Jesse Ventura on Color And Kevin Kelly on Play by Play

Is AEW paying royalties?

He wasn’t a billionaire at the time and also wasn’t paying women to stay quiet about sex yet either nice try lol

@@ginoabboud4365 eh you don’t really know, Vince has done some really shady things so who really knows. There’s probally going to be more accusers coming out.

I'm not sure how true it is but I heard through various interviews and documentaries when Owen died his wife filed a lawsuit against Vince over him not being protected and Vince countersuit because Owen couldn't carry out his contract, wouldn't be surprised if true tbh

You jealous of Vince lol lol hilarious

@@charronrose68 You jealous of decent human beings lol lol hilarious

@@link2947 that’s what unions are for and why Jesse wanted to start one.

problem is other industries, ie football, acting etc, are also considered independent contractors and they have sorted the issue out by unionising and stuff.

@@anthonymacgregor9790 the NFL also sorted those union issues out by charging $300 tickets and $169 jerseys to pay for these obscene inflated contracts. Greed goes both ways. I want wrestlers to get whats due but it should still remain affordable entertainment for the working class fan imo.

why bother when they'll climb over each other to sign anything they r given?

Promoters don't have anywhere near that control.

Oh my favourite was at mania 6 when he had a pop at Gorilla about eating hotdogs “mustard all over your lapels.. you’re a mess Monsoon”😂

@@sg-zd8eb Yes I remember that one quite well and his opening words of Mania 6 were also amazing “Well Gorilla I’ve been to the Super Bowl I’ve been to The World Series I’ve even been to The Rolling Stones but there is no place like Wrestlemania”

WrestleMania 5. Him calling Hogan "The Luster" and "Lust" Hogan. Simply hilarious.

This used to mean something, I'm going in there mano a mano, why don't you tell me your such a patriot?

Would language need to be included to say that in the event of death Benoit's loyalty money would be paid out to his beneficiary? If that's the case chances are his wife was listed as such, and since she died that all became null and void. Not to mention benoit probably has the least watched and publicized tape collection right now.

Since WWE deleted Benoit from their history and banned saying his name, the royalty check would be pretty small. No point in wasting paper with a 0 on it.

Since that tragedy WWE doesn't mention him or sell merchandise with his likeness. What royalty checks would he be getting?

@@Lord_Bibulous in theory of a match that included Benoit in it could illicit royalties. Like say the WWE Championship match between him and Kurt Angle at Royal Rumble 03?

@@battaglino77 Yeah that's true. But are they even still selling DVDs?

The government probably gave him a message saying you run we kill your family the USA is evil

moderna royalties

@@connor7036 oh but I'm pretty sure he's messed up other names as well.

@@connor7036 he called dynamite WWE dynamite

@@connor7036 how is that woke?

@Salem Al Maskari In terms of the whole Cody Rhodes situation that was because WWE had the trademark to Cody Rhodes’s name at the time since Cody Rhodes real name is actually “Cody Runnels” he didn’t start using Cody Rhodes until he joined WWE the first time in 2007 because of this WWE had the trademark rights to the name. Had it been his birth name then yes he would be right but it not. However as of mid 2020 Cody Rhodes was able to obtain the trademark rights to The Cody Rhodes name is WWE let it expire and didn’t renew it the next day Cody Rhodes immediately filed for trademark of it and after a couple of skirmishes Cody Rhodes was able to get it within the next couple of months as from mid 2020 until his departure from AEW in early 2021 he was using the Cody Rhodes name on AEW television and not “Cody” as that’s what he had been using on AEW television prior to 2020 as well as the other promotions that he was in. Obviously now that he’s back in WWE he’s going to use the name again however if he ever leaves WWE again this time the Cody Rhodes name will go with him because Cody Rhodes owns the trademark to the name now WWE only has the licensing agreement to the name while he’s under contract with WWE now.

@Salem Al Maskari As for the Jesse Ventura situation he actually has a court order so I’m not exactly sure how NBC Universal can get around that because he is right WWE isn’t using the network in the United States anymore it’s not in House anymore there they licensed it out to NBC Universal for the peacock so I can’t see how Jesse wouldn’t have a claim for this he really should seek out legal advice if he hasn’t already I’m assuming he has but he would be going up against NBC so that’s a lot of money he’d probably have to shell out.

I've always wondered that. For all his success, notoriety an wealth, McMahon just seems incredibly fragile and insecure. A lot of his behavior is rather childlike.

He was an awful governor. Lol.

Apparently not

Gorilla Monsoon?

I am going to look into Buff Bagwell's Law Sue.. keep a eye on it to see the arguments from it..
