deancoles 0 Report post Posted September 22, 2004 A few weeks ago on WCW Classics “I bet Rhodes is wishing he was at home roping goats.” (Stunned Silence) “What are you looking at me like that for Schiavone? Cowboys from Texas are known as ‘goat-ropers’” “What’s a matter Tony? (begins laughing himself) Have you never roped a goat? Talk to Dustin Rhodes, he’ll tell you how it’s done” (You can hear both Schiavone and Ventura chuckling in the background) “Hello….hello….. somebody get me an announcer who isn’t laughing out here!” Surprised this hasn't been quoted in full yet With the deepest regrets, and tears that are soaked I'm sorry to hear that your dad finally croaked He lived a full life on his own terms Soon he'll be buried and eaten by worms But if I could have a son as stupid as you I'd have wished for cancer so I would die too So be brave, and be strong, get your life on track Cause the old bastard's DEAD and he ain't never comin' back.

alfdogg 0 Report post Posted September 22, 2004 From Royal Rumble '96 Henry Godwinn does his hog call, and Perfect says "I just seen three girls in the front row move in." Even funnier from that Rumble, if you look in the bottom left corner as Barry Horowitz is running out once they go back to the wide shot, you can see two guys dressed like Diesel and Undertaker waving their arms to his music. Me and my brother were rewinding it and cracking up for a good 15 minutes. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest Justin Competent Report post Posted September 23, 2004 On Velocity, after they showed Heidenreich beating up Josh Matthews, Michael Cole surprised me with this jem. "I bet we could be seeing Heidenreich on Velocity very soon." Larry Zbysko in the old AWA had a decent one, when confronted about using nunchucks in wrestling matches. "Nunchucks are not weapons, just the same as guns are not weapons. The human body is a weapon, so if I get disqualified for anything, it would be for outwrestling my opponent." Bobby Heenan at the Hall of Fame ceramony, when Pete Rose was brought up. "I have to come clean, I bet on wrestling." Bobby Heenan again, at the '92 Royal Rumble, Piper saves Flair from an attack from Jake the Snake. "Piper, you're a good man. It's not a skirt, it's a kilt." Piper attacks Flair. "Whaddya doing you skirt-wearing freak?!" Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

DCMaximo 0 Report post Posted September 24, 2004 Here you go JoeDirt, quoted from Wrestlecrap.com Jake Roberts (who obviously showed up early at the casino to cash in on those free drinks. The interview begins with him slurring his words so badly you can't even make out what he says, so this is continued in progress): "In a cashino, you should gamblllle. Let me tell you something, Anvil, you don't want to play cards with me, because I'll cheat. Ok, I cheat. You want to play 21, I got 22. You want to play black jack? I got two of those too. (RD: HUH?) You want to play aces and eights? Well, I got some of those too. Bottom line is this. You do not gamble with me....*more slurring*...when you walk into a casino, when you want to gamble, the main thing you must do, is this, you must accept losing. I don't accept losing, and neither doesh Damien. Damien, my friend! My friend Damien is right here. *mumbles incoherently* You don't want to see this, do you? Let me show you something. I tell you what Anvil, go ahead and roll the dice. Mr. Cameraman, get your ass back up here. *getting angry* HELL-OOOO, I'm talkin' to you. Get that camera back up here. Thatsh what you should worry about Anvil. The bottom line is this, when the DDT comes, then the snake comes out. Worry about the DDT. DDT, DDT, DDT (begins yelling) DDT! DDT! DDT! *finally one of the 500 or so people in the audience chants along* THINK ABOUT IT!" Announcer: "A man of his word, Jake "The Snake" Roberts." Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jericholic82 0 Report post Posted September 24, 2004 well I was watching WrestleMania 11 recently and I found that The King was indeed once very funny. "Football is a game where eleven men spend a lot of hours trying to move a small object a hundred yards. It's just like the post office" "Now your tuxedo finally looks good"-King to Vince as the lights go out for Taker's entrance "Those guys have the perfect face for radio"-King about the German announce team (yes they was one at this WM) "I'm not prejudiced,Mcmahon like that man right there (Bret Hart), I hate everybody equally" "His dad wrestled so long ago, you know what? I broke into a pyramid not long ago and on the wall was a picture of Stu Hart with a headlock on King Tut" "I knew that woudn't last, when I saw the figures on top of their wedding cake; they were lawyers"- King discussing Pamela Anderson's marriage to Tommy Lee and one more where even Vince gets in a good line, as Jonathan Taylor Thomas makes his way down to the ring as a special guest timekeeper for the HBK/Diesel match "King: Exactly how old is young Jonathan? Vince: How old is he? King: Yea Vince: I believe he's 13, why? King: Well that tuxedo makes him look about ten years sillier. Vince: Oh really? At least he doesn't have a crown on, give me a break" Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

MillenniumMan831 0 Report post Posted October 5, 2004 This is actually a fantasy quote as it never happened but thought it would be a golden nugget indeed if it did. I'm sure many of you are familiar w/ The Main Event 2/88 and Hogan FINALLY being dethroned. Anywhoo, Hogan cuts an infamous whiny promo about how much the plastic surgery the twin referees had cost and all that jazz. W/ Hogan in near tears, I'd have marked the hell out if Mean Gene would have muttered . . . "Well, easy come easy go. Vince, over to you." Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Why can't you be like Bret who didn't have that problem? It just would have been funny since Hogan was in near tears screaming out "WHY?!? THEY LOOKED IDENTICAL!!!! HOW MUCH DID THE PLASTIC SURGERY COST!!! OH MY GOD!!!!!" . . . then Gene, cool as a cucumber, could have wrapped up the segment w/ that line and thrown it to Vince.

Guest Evolution Report post Posted October 9, 2004 Mean Gene: "Alright, over the last couple of months, it has been very difficult to introduce this man with the words World Wrestling Federation Champion, Hulk Hogan, here at WrestleMania IV this afternoon, you've got the opportunity to change that." Hogan: "Oh yeah, it's been hard to live with, man! FEE FI FO FUM, Andre! One long year, and your time has come, man! No marks, no scars, no blemishes on the Hulkster, brother! But inside man, I've been scarred for one long year! Everywhere I go man, all the little Hulksters ask me, 'Is there any truth to the fact that there was a controversial count? Hulkster, did you really press him over your head? Did you REALLY beat the Giant? Well today man, in WrestleMania IV, we're gonna wipe all that controversy out! Andre the Giant, in the second round, when you're fresh as a daisy, with the whole world watching, I'm gonna PROVE, brother, that I can beat ya, anywhere, anytime! And all my Hulkamaniacs, they're gonna FEEL it, too! Gene: "Speaking of the Hulkamaniacs, Hulk Hogan, we have seen them here in Atlantic City, and I know millions of others are watching very intently all around the world!" Hulk: "Yeah! But if you look into their eyes, man, have you seen the FEAR in all those little Hulksters? They realize, that when I get Andre the Giant cinched up in the launch position, when I slam him through the Trump Plaza, brother, from New York, down to Tampa, Florida, the fault line is gonna break off! And as Andre the Giant FALLS INTO THE OCEAN, as my next two opponents, fall into the ocean floor and I pin 'em, SO WILL DONALD TRUMP, and ALL the Hulkamaniacs! But as Donald Trump hangs on to the top of the Trump Plaza, with his family in his other arm, as they sink to the bottom of the sea, THANK GOD DONALD TRUMP'S A HULKAMANIAC! He'll know enough to let go of his materialistic possessions, hang on to the wife and kids, dog paddle with his life, all the way to safety! But Donald...if something happens and you run out of gas, and all those Hulkamaniacs run out of gas...JUST HANG ON, to the largest back in the world, and I'll DOG PADDLE us, BACKSTROKE ALL OF US TO SAFETY!" That's pretty good, and his WM V promo before the Megapowers Explode is a little bit more sane, but that's not saying much. If anyone can post that promo from WM V, it'd be much appreciated, because I was doubled over with laughter listening to it when I rented the tape from the video store a few weeks ago.

alfdogg 0 Report post Posted October 9, 2004 Not really a "quote", per se, but at the first Royal Rumble after all the guys had come in, Vince said that JYD would win because he was the last guy. Then about a minute after he says it, Ron Bass walks over and just casually flips him over the top and out. Vince just sits and says "Look at...I can't believe that."
