"Its just tacky its.....tacky" *SLAAAAAAAP!*

I love when the one guy refers to Barry O as "Mr. O."

that kid owned Superstar and Bruno

Are we supposed to believe that people called into the show from their homes? I didn't see a phone number and it's not like this show was live. Donahue was the Vince Mcmahon of talk show hosts.

nice shot of Jt southern and Van hammer at the end.. That was a great feud lol

Geez this show had commercials breaks up the ass. Loved the WCW ad at the end.

This is why "Donahue" became one of the top ten daytime talk shows of its day. No wonder it ran in syndication for years,from 1970 until 1994.

where is part 4 and part 5 of this show can we get them up here thanks

gotta love the woman @ 3:35 LMAO

Bruno sounds like Arnold Schwarzenegger. "Nyahahaha I did Da WW EF, Get To Da Choppa" !!!

"Are you there caller? Hi! I can't talk to you!" LOL

that guy brought up a great point in the end

There was only one question that needed to be asked on this programme: Donahue to Vince: "Whatcha gonna do brother?!!!"

just like today....I miss the glory days.

1. Phil Donahue was one of the best talk show host of all time. 2. This show aired in 1992 20 years ago! (Your expecting today's clothing and hair styles)?

"Put that cookie down"!!!

Phil must be related to Vince!

The kid at the end was the smartest one there. He realized that half the fucking nut bars up there had vendettas against McMahon for stuff that happened in the past. Classic.

I wouldn't be suprised if Vince McMahon put all this out there to get more media. He's a risk taker.....

What WCW wrestlers was that at the end of the clip?

"Dose Ah Mah Cookehs"

3:30 Wrestling IS Art!!!

@jewggerz Do you have The Superstar Billy Graham DVD??

it sure was, it was on for over 20 years...

LMFAO, Donahue is such a time control freak, when the lady speaks at 2:15 he basically walks away and says 'yeah, I get it' LMAO

Barry O looking like mr. Belding’s younger brother who wanted to take Zach and them whitewater rafting

The kid at 3:06 is an obvious plant

@doudoub2005 Yes it was, from the 1970's to 1996. And every talk show does'nt last forever.

Like how the whole scandal on mcmahon episode shows service and promotional fees were provided by (WCW ad appears) XD

Ohhh shi that one guy who spoke up, pure pwnage

This is awesome, if they ever have a Roast of Vince McMahon all of these guys should be there with Harley Race, and Bret Hart should host the event.

@mkl62 really? what has he said? can you tell me where to find larry discussing vince? i'd like to hear that.

If it is it's truly a shame...when they started their hall of fame Bruno should've been the first inductee, but I guess since he spoke out against Vince it won't happen.

3:08 A young Rey Misterio

@blarson12 It's 1992. This was from years ago. Is Donahue still on today?

lmao i was thinking the same

On the shot that the audience member took at Bruno Sammartino's son, David: I heard that David was fired because he hit a fan and almost caused a riot at one of the arenas. It was a case of 'roid rage.

Meltzer looks like a 5 year old when he gets Vince at the start.

god, a fucking dog bit my right calve muscle today!

Wrestling's tacky? and I bet that woman watches soap operas and I find them quite tacky.

If Phil was looking for ratings .. and this was 1992. Andre the Giant, Macho Man Randy Savage, The Undertaker, Hulk Hogan, and the Ultimate Warrior would've been on this program. The Phil Donahue Show, just like the company in the ad at the end, were not about ratings. That's why the Phil Donahue Show and WCW no longer exist.

@drvn8 It was on the radio in the early nineties on WSB 750AM in Atlanta. It was Wrestling with Jim Ross. Larry made it clear that he did work for Vince's father, but would never work for Vince. Larry did make his mark by hitting Bruno Sammartino with the chair at Shea Stadium. Now, when highlights of that card are shown, neither Bruno or Larry are mentioned. Larry had some good matches with Scott LeDoux in the AWA. LeDoux now has Lou Gehrig's Disease.

Who's the wrestler that said he'll never wrestle again on the left?

kudo's to that wrestling mark at 3:12

Well, Donahue really did try to be impartial. The questions the audience asked were absolutely ricockulous. The Donahue audience was not the right group of people to be having this in front of. I wanted to punch the lady in black right in the mouth for saying it was "sleazy". She clearly has no level of thinking beyond what the news tells her...same goes for the rest of the dullards throughout the crowd. Wrestling can be fake, art, beautiful or "sleazy" but to me it's absolutely spectacular.

Ya Superstar and Vince reconciled but not Bruno...Ya Vince is still the genius

She probably didn't know what the topic of the show was and just got free tickets to come.

Come Bruno drop kick your face.OOOOGA OOOOGA. OOOOGA!

Glow wrestling was also on Phil donahue

I hate how sammartino dismissed that audience member just cos hes young, when he was making a valid point

These people in the audience and their questions are ridiculous - thankfully Phil Donahue was able to keep control of the nonesense being asked.

LMAO that's epic, don't you just love them?

3:25 LoL @ Bruno talking trash.

@wogfun Well...the talk shows back then were yes...they were a lot less "scripted"...something now you rarely ever see on tv.

@doudoub2005 Yeah it was Believe it or Not...

Those audience members were wacked out of their minds. Bunch of weirdos off the street just walking into the studio to be on TV.

Yeah you have a point...anytime somebody like Pete rose or William "Refrigerator" Perry can be in a wrestling hall of fame when they're not even wrestlers does make it look like a joke

@DTA550 He would be an AMAZING politician.

No one forced them to take steroids, but I think they felt they had to, so they can get the body to make it big in the WWE!!

Andre was probably sick, but the rest of the guys you mentioned were still working. Why would they agree to show up and risk their jobs for speaking the truth. Especially Hogan, who would more than likely get all kinds of pressure from the audience and from Graham regarding his drug use. I actually found this show rather interesting. I wish it was an hour long instead of 30 mins.

this is kinda before my time so I don't really know, but was all TV this good back then? It just has a certain realism and energy that is absent from any so called "live" talk show today.

Yep, Vince can do no wrong. Sign of a true mark.

Throughout the whole show Murray Hodgson and the guy that sat to the left of Barry O didn't even have a chance to speak.

Did this just end with a promotion from the former WCW? LMAO!

I would've thought if your name was Orton you would always work in the wrestling business

@Paul Schissel and why is that his fault?

Pat Patterson is the godfather of Stephanie,Pat is also openly gay & Vince knew there was a problem but said it was just locker room horse play.Some wrestlers even say Vince is Bi sexual.

3:38.....id "hit it"

Vince got Dave'd!

@jewggerz Oh yeah, I forgot to mention that Graham is the first asshole to get jacked up on steroids in this business. In every way, he's responsible for the trend in the 80s.

Two funny things in this short 5 minute clip: 1) 4:13 "HOW MANY HOMOSEXUALS IN YOUR NEIGHBORHOOD?! REPORT THAT TO US!" 2) This serious discussion about child molestation, child abuse, steroid use, illegal activities including drug use, exploitation of workers, etc., in the WWF and then at 4:53-WCW. Haha.

Who is that long haired guy that says his wrestling career is over? I don't even recognize him.

Its truley amazing that McMahon has survived the sex scandals,steroid abuse and the undeniable fact that wrestlers drop like flies ever year and through it all he still pulls in millions. If you wanna blame somebody blame yourselves. lmao

@blarson12 Then why did you ask why their clothes were out of style?

00:10 Vince gets Dave'd.

@beeshnook Read 'ChokeHold'.

I wish I could be surprised at how many workable marks think, even twenty years later, that Vince was the innocent party in this scandal. Read ChokeHold, WWE Universe serfs ;)

all the acusation they even admit are instances befor vince bought the company from his father

i dont know if graham is being real but alot of old school guys bruno, albano, etc dont like vince jr. and they all have told the same stories about sexual harrassment, drugs, etc

@denzelsnipes69 that poor kid had been waiting the whole show with his hand up. Me! Me! I have an insightful question! Aw goddamnit high school all over again. Bruno should have taken his lunch money too.

1:49..... didn't Rosie Perez of "White Men Can't Jump" have better things to do than call a talk show??? LOL!

@jjevans2009 We all have opinions I guess.

The Rock @ 3:10.

@iconoclasm12345 Yeah, lying is molestation of their minds bro

I always find shows very strange where one opinion (in this case McMahon) is set against like 6 others. I mean c'mon is this a talk show? Lets stay balanced.

aaaaaaaaaaaaaaawwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww nobody knows that how many percentage of homosexuals in your neighbourhood hahahahahahahahahaha

@JamesRideout123 In this case, yes he was. To me everyone involved (with the acception of Barry IMO), all had an axe to grind. Like Bruno really pisses me off, saying VInce Sr. blackballed him? Vince Sr. made Bruno a lot of money! Murray Hodgson was exposed as a con-artist who had a rap-sheet. Even those who aren't there, like Billy Jack Haynes & Dr. D, are all bitter a-holes with an axe to grind. This is the one time I agree with VInce. But yes, other times he deserved certain scrutiny

The woman calling wrestling tacky is pure ignorant

Wonder what the kid at 3:15 thinks now of all that has happened with all the deaths from roids in wrestling and misconduct that has come out.

@JonathanVonErich Sadly, for you, that doesn't matter; does Sammartino "having an agenda" mean that the sex abuse/sterioid abuse just 'doesn't matter'? Of course not.

@dpman72 Better to be "sandbagged" then "tea-bagged." *shudder*

And then he hired Patterson back 4 months later. What a crock of shit

Yet you liked it enough to watch something wrestling related eh?

God dam Phil Donahue was annoying,never realized it back then but watching it today he didn’t let anyone get a word in.

#shortcut

@doudoub2005 are you joking or serious?

This whole thing was a work

"When you lie to children, that is child abuse!" LMAO billy graham cracks me up. dumb wrestlers.

Wrestling is tacky now but not back then.

The woman that asked why they get involved and it's so tacky, wtf is she doing there at that show?
