[Tall4Life]

Remember when 56 year old Ricky Steamboat got inducted into the Hall of Fame and then had a three and a half star match with Chris Jericho a month later?

 

[Caspel]

Is Ricky's son officially retired from wrestling?

 

[The Silver]

a true heel, a lost art these days

 

[BroBot]

80 lb dumbbell dang.

 

[BewareTheBatsie]

Is Ricky's son officially retired from wrestling?

He had a back injury that forced him to retire.

 

[ElectricBlanketFire]

Miz is doing a good job.

 

[serenewarfare]

Is Ricky's son officially retired from wrestling?

Yeah. He had a really bad back injury.

 

[Caspel]

He had a back injury that forced him to retire.

Damn, retired by 27. Crazy for younger professionals.

 

[Tall4Life]

Makes you wonder what the future would have held if he hadn't been forced to retire near the peak of his career.

Austin vs. Steamboat in 1998 would have been amazing.

 

[PHOENIXZERO]

Yeah, that was one of the reasons Rude didn't like being involved with Heenan, thought Heenan was stealing his heat. Rick Rude would also sit across from his wife in bars and beat the piss out of guys who would approach er.

 

[serenewarfare]

I think the Miz is a really good example of a great heel on the mic. The Revival are a great example of heels in the ring.

 

[ElectricBlanketFire]

"He was snug." lol

 

[MoonsaultSlayer]

Where can I see that match?

 

[ReiGun]

I could listen to these old heads tell stories all night.

 

[HashtagLapsed]

Damn, retired by 27. Crazy for younger professionals.

Rough business.

 

[kunonabi]

I could listen to these old heads tell stories all night.

[serenewarfare]

Vince about to sign Rick Rude's son to a contract.

 

[BewareTheBatsie]

Damn is that his son?

Give him the fucking push. Look at the size of him.

 

[excelsiorlef]

His son is hella tall.

 

[Damn Silly]

I could listen to these old heads tell stories all night.

Same, it's great.

 

[truly101]

Its sad when you realize the best person to induct Rude is also dead

Damn is that his son?

Give him the fucking push. Look at the size of him.

GODDAMN PAL!!!!

 

[The Elite]

Rick Rude Jr at WM 34.

 

[Wagram]

Vince is seeing stars right now with this guy.

 

[Original Famous Ray]

jeez...Rude Jr is a hoss

 

[Tom Nook]

Does he wrestle?

 

[Raw64life]

Dude must've been asked "why aren't you wrestling?" 100 times tonight.

 

[excelsiorlef]

Its sad when you realize the best person to induct Rude is also dead

Who would that have been?

 

[BewareTheBatsie]

Seriously, his son is a giant.

 

[RecRoulette]

Thought he was going to take his suit off

 

[ReiGun]

Miz marking out.

 

[truly101]

Who would that have been?

Hennig was his best friend

 

[excelsiorlef]

Hennig was his best friend

Fuck right...

[serenewarfare]

Hennig was his best friend

Bret Hart was close with Rude too, IIRC.

 

[BananasWithGuns]

 

[Hex]

Seriously, his son is a giant.

Good talker too, and charismatic.

Yeah Vince had to excuse himself

 

[MoonsaultSlayer]

This guy can talk. I wouldn't doubt we see him on nxt soon. What DOES he do?

 

[Adree]

His son is doing really well.

 

[Wagram]

I love the backstage insight in these speeches tonight.

 

[kiguel182]

His son totally looks like a star and speaks really well. I wonder if he just doesn't like wrestling or something.

 

[ReiGun]

Good talker too, and charismatic.

Yeah Vince had to excuse himself

HHH got the boys writing up that developmental contract as we speak.

 

[Guzim]

Vince to buy his business out.

 

[BewareTheBatsie]

He owns a business? Vince crying backstage.

 

[kiguel182]

They had their father dying and a brother? Rough life.

 

[half a moon]

Anyone got a screen cap of his son?

 

[Hex]

Should be Warrior tme

 

[ChosenPredator]
