In an interview with Lance Russell, Rude, with his valet Angel by his side, insults Idol but he isn't aware Idol is watching the interview on a monitor in the back. Rude is confronted by Austin Idol about his comments and Rude backpedals, but Idol doesn't buy his baloney and slaps the taste out of his mouth.

      I met him in 85 and he was incredibly cool to me and my father. Still have his signed photo. He definitely took about 2 minutes to talk to us and it was very heartfelt. Yes he was young, but still acted like he gave a sh-t. He asked me who my favorite wrestler was. I told him Muraco, Morales, Dusty,Backlund ,Kevin Von Eric,and of course , Rick Rude. I’ll never forget the conversation and how he actually seemed to care. One of the greats for sure.

      I've never thought of him as a cowardly heel nor Piper. They always backed up what they said and usually stood face to face with their opponents. He's not the finished mold of Ravishing Rick Rude yet at this time either. His mic skills improved 100 percent and his confidence in his work got way better not to long after this. But I totally agree with you that he was a perfect heel.

The man had some serious chicken legs, Tony Atlas back in the day, same thing. Also Rude here, that physique he has is attainable naturally though I doubt he is natural I'm just saying. He isn't huge by any means just jacked with low bodyfat. Austin Idol is freaking huge on the gas here.

    Lance Russell has to be the best interviewer ever. His reactions are always plausible, no matter how ridiculous the situations were. He always managed to put the heels over as dangerous threats yet never cowered away and stood up for his beliefs (something that the wet noodles that WWE currently employs as interviewers could learn from).

      @@94fleetwood49 Today's audience are the marks, and I thought it rather obvious that my comment was intended to convey the kind of wrestling that took place in this era. No, most of todays marks are not booing the product. WWE marks keep selling out arenas to see their garbage and AEW play wrestling is drawing thousands of fans too. It's not about "storylines,' they still do storylines today (even if they do abandon them halfway through sometimes), it's about treating the business in a serious fashion. It's about performers selling those storylines and not taking pictures together on social media while they're in the middle of a feud. In fact, promotions should ban all out of gimmick social media accounts. If you wanna be a pro wrestler be prepared to live the life, and sacrifice social media and all business exposing enterprises, you're not an actor. Lastly, we need psychology and the ability to tell a story without five 450 splashes through a table every match. Ric Flair and Michael Hayes had matches most fans today couldn't even sit through, yet they had the crowd eating out of the palm of their hands, no triple sowcows necessary. Pro wrestling is dead. All we have left is sports entertainment, play wrestling, hardcore mudshows, and Japanese MMA lite.

    R.I.P. Rick Rude. One of the all-time greats, and a career cut sadly way too short. I remember watching him in the WWF in the late 80s when he was carrying Ultimate Warrior through probably the best feud of Warrior's career. Seeing Rude and Bobby Heenan together during the pose-off that Warrior won due to being the face was one of the high points of my young wrestling-viewing life. I never saw a whole lot of Rude's work before he got to WWF; growing up in St. Louis we saw some mid-South, some Memphis, and whatever came through the Lou on Wrestling at the Chase, but my memories of the territorial days is barely extant, just a bit too young. Rude was so, so good pretty much anytime he was in front of the camera, though. Classic.

      @Travis McDonal Actually, "Ric Flair" stole more from (Nature Boy Buddy Rogers). "Austin ldol" was really more of a hybrid of (Superstar Billy Graham and Nature Boy Buddy Rogers). However, "Hulk Hogan", "Jesse the Body Ventura" and "Lex Luger" all came from (Superstar Billy Graham). Although some have suggested that "Billy Graham's" gimmick may have been inspired by (Sailor Art Thomas). Billy Graham has never admitted to that, at least not to my knowledge anyway 😉.

    Well....he definitely skipped leg day quite a bit. Still, an incredibly strong guy in the ring and gym. Definitely in the top 5 on my list of greatest heels. I never even heard of Austin Idol Untill I started watching these videos recently. Not a bad heel himself.

      There was a promotion in Georgia where they had a royal rumble and the winner would recieve $7,500 on a big check. It was all kayfabe but the promoter of the event was known to stiff guys. I think it was in Columbus Georgia, Austin Idol won the royal rumble and took the big check to the local bank and they cashed it because the bank manager was at the event and thought it was real. Can't remember where i read or saw that story but thats legendary in my mind.
