I saw Mad Dog and Jesse ‘The Body’ Ventura live at the Sioux City Vet’s auditorium back around 1983 or so...

Geez, I remember this guy from when I was a kid. I remember Mad Dog, along with, Verne Gagne, and The Crusher.

My brother always watched wrestling. I hated it.

His sister was a wrestler, too. And she was pretty hot as I recall.

Described as loveable .. Outside the ring.

That's what I call real sport, unlike this fake sport football where a smackdown is called a stupid euphemism like 'play'!

Holy crap are you all idiots! The Barons signature move was the claw. The Crushers move was the bolo, but in the 60s was the stomach claw.

I remember when Mad Dog and The Baron were tag team partners in the AWA. They were going to fight Sheik Ayotola Blackwell and Sheik Adanon El Casey. Sheik Adanon El Casey had broke his arm in a match about a year earlier and had been wearing a cast om his arm ever since which was his special weapon he would always use to bash his opponents heads in. In the interview the day of the match Mad Dog and The Baron both showed up with casts on both arms. Mad Dog solemnly explained he was just in a horrible car accident and broke both his arms. Baron then looked at the camera with a big smile ans said "Yeah, me too".

L'dmao.

Mad Dog fought as a tag team with his brother Butcher

Saw Mad Dog retain his title at chicago’s old International Amphitheatre - 2 out of 3 falls vs, Ernie Ladd.

Dick The Bruiser was on the card and the Bruiser just did not lose in Chicago...disqualified a lot, yes.
