Dr. Tom Prichard Interviews Bobby Eaton

RIP Bobby, one of the best.

[@ckalus]

Kudos to Dr. Tom. He did such a great, and gentle, job in working with Bobby. Trying to draw him out and still make him feel comfortable. Bobby, you are missed.

[@creativeminds4972]

Big part of my childhood is gone. This guy was the best. RIP Bobby !

[@kevinmac2898]

Yeah I agree Mark, and today's wrestling is not even close to how guys like Bobby Eaton did it, these guys now don't have a clue how to light up a crowd. They just don't get it. Bobby will be surely missed!

[@kevinmac2898]

Great message TWO, and yeah you know Cornette is hurting

[@aerialhorizonrc7827]

Yes, he was crying when he mentioned his passing and told a story about how he started in the wrestling business after meeting Bobby Eaton and other stuff back in the day. He has a KZbin channel.

Bobby was never someone who enjoyed public speaking. He wasn't the most articulate, but he was such a great person by all accounts. Ive never heard anyone say anything bad about Bobby. In the wrestling business that is very rare

He was never a man of many words but if you watch his shoot interview from around 99-00 he was quite different. It's pretty obvious from this interview that in the latter years of his life he had really declined a lot.

Bobby was one of the greatest heel workers of all time. He could do anything he wanted in the ring. The Midnite Express I think is the greatest heel Tag Team of all time and with Jim putting them over they had so much heat. RIP to this legend.

One of the few matches that ever had me on the edge of my seat was the 2 out of 3 falls match with Flair at the Clash of Champions, I was a Flair fan but no one ever hated Bobby Eaton. So when Bobby got the first fall I was nervous. The Clash was always like a Free to watch Pay Per View and to me it was as good as the Steamboat vs Flair matches back then. Bobby was not a talker but man he could wrestle his butt off. He showed in that match with Flair that he was just as good in the ring as the Greatest of all Time. If you haven't seen that match go watch it!

Brock Lesnar threw him around like a rag doll at Wrestlemania after Roman actually hit him after the bell rang. Ask Braun Strowman how it feels to get legitimately punched by Lesnar and dropped to the mat cuz Strowman wasn't working like he was supposed to, or ask Randy Orton how it feels to get legit elbows from Brock and have ur head split open to require stitches.... Roman's promos are getting somewhat better than his earlier stuff but he's got the greatest promo guy, Paul Heyman, to talk for him... but again, if his cousin wasn't the Rock, and his uncle wasn't Rikishi, and his grandfather wasn't one of the Wild Samoans then he wouldn't have gotten pushed the way he did
