Dusty Rhodes burries Aj styles with his butt - NWA TNA review

Alright it’s The Hawk and we’re back to the NwA TNA reviews. This is episode 62 and 63. This was a really weird couple of shows where everybody seemed to be frustrated. Dusty Rhodes is feuding with Aj styles and making him look like a complete idiot. Jeff Jarrett feuds with crackheads. I don’t understand what any of this was supposed to achieve.

[@matthewpulama106]

I think Jerry Lynn's way of saying "DESTROY THE OPPOSITION", while admittedly pretty silly, made sense because he's a IRL Metalhead.

[@logancaine9616]

IRL metalhead here. If there's no guitar, drums, and bass, then there shall be no death/hardcore/stoner metal vocals. It's just cringe

[@markula_4040]

Seems odd considering how often he did backstage promos wearing glasses and trying to come off as well spoken instead of doing the standard animated style wrestling promos.

[@damenbaxter8890]

@@logancaine9616this reply to the comment is so dumb lol what you expect them to get a band ready for him to say three words lol it wasn’t a song it was a statement

Dusty "Don't look at my ass" Rhodes

[@Aman--Wangnao77]

They had Shawn Michaels' cousin and decided to call him Micheal Shane? That's *hilarious* lol

[@arostwocents]

They should have focused on the pretending he was the better one of the two like the bit in this 😂

[@sportsmedia9647]

🤣 I thought his name was Matt Bentley

[@Thebigbad1013]

I do like me some Trinity, but yeah, she was way too good to just be a "looks" girl. Also, really nice twist with the Jeff Hardy/Shannon Moore thing, had me laughing!

[@18T220]

It's amazing how often Jeff Jarrett shows up in unrelated runs.

[@UndergroundSkat2000]

Great to have another NWA/TNA video from the H-A-W-K!

[@AwkwardLoser]

I know it’s a simple editing effect but I’m endless dazzled by the “reverse texts & logos to avoid copyright” effects. It never makes anything on people look reversed it’s crazy. Simple to video editors but always impressive to me

[@889654]

10:03 ironically, Daniels appeared on WCW in 2000 as basically the "Hower Power" for Vampiro during the latter's feud with Sting.

[@dustytucker506]

Jerry Lynn was repping death metal legends Dying Fetus with that shirt. Love it.

[@ryantorres9518]

I just replied with this same fact. I love death metal and dying fetus and was like wait what I Thibodaux thays a df.shirt with their older logo

[@RC99_Productions]

I knew Ryan Wilson looked familiar. He would later be repackaged as Trytan in TNA in 2005.

[@marcohavokkhaos]

At first, I read that as Rainn Wilson. Lol

[@nicktaylor2657]

Dusty: AJ can you help me find my Muffler? 😂

[@Metanitejoints]

The Master of the Cabdriver Slam, David Young.

[@thehorrorhound6575]

I don’t care what anyone says I wish just once when AJ and McMahon were still on smackdown together we could’ve had AJ say just once “ZIP IT VINCE!” In that accent he did when he yelled zip it in early TNA. It would’ve been hilarious to anyone who was watching back then and I’m sure hilarious to AJ too

[@shingotink5062]

Unexpected change up to the swanton bomb bit. 👍

[@josefrees]

The redshirt security moves were crazy lol

[@Venemofthe888]

Wow Terry Taylor looks like he has Roode's Robe in later years. I hope it wasnt his inspiration lol

[@jopilot4126]

Black shirt security would’ve been tag team champs in AEW.

[@cashxjonny]

Lmaoooo and would be defending it every week

[@funandyvideos]

Between slappin' and poopin' and whatever else is in the back- heh- catalog, Dusty may have had more ass-centric storylines than a guy literally called Mr. Ass.

[@marcohavokkhaos]

What about the Booty man Beefcake?

Calling Kaz "Indian Leather Man" brought some good memories of watching and rewatching your reviews of Ring Ka King 🥲

[@masterthomas7872]

Man, AJ came on a long way in promos. He was pretty awkward, but he got better.

[@JeffreyMarksWorld]

I know it's almost as if a person will get better at something they do multiple times

[@marcohavokkhaos]

I love Jerry Lynn's death metal growl, to end a promo. That was his ECW gimmick, he did it in WWE too. Big fan of it haha

[@TheeLiteClub-]

I was confused when Slapnuts started slapping his ass!

[@CriticalMrs]

At least AJ will never have to worry about showing older wrestlers respect (RESPECT!!) again

Amazing from here to think Daniels is retired and Jerrett is still active.

13:29 probably the most confidence anyone's ever had in Russo's ability to handle himself in a scrap.

[@mjdf122]

It’s been a whole month we need more the Hawk watches NWA/TNA love these episodes I remember all the good and bad times

[@Honk_Hogan]

Damn Don Callis really used to like Chester the Molester

[@PedroBenolielBonito]

12:53 The OSW guys: RESPEEEEEEECKT! Also, wow. AJ really did suffer through a lot to make it big, didn't he?

[@Metanitejoints]

Yes. It had to be hell lol

[@ymd2516]

I always got bugged that Dusty always got spared the negative stigma of being a self serving politician that others equally deservedly have.

[@marcohavokkhaos]

Dusty was turning into Pat Patterson, and Vince, that one time with Nailz

[@mechaman7818]

0:24 Man, backyards in Britain sure must be different than backyards in Canada. We usually just have grass, not semi-trucks.

[@marcohavokkhaos]

I love that nod to the higher power. Since Christopher Daniels, was supposed to play that character, in WWE, as the leader of the Ministry

[@Loscar1983]

I can understand why the Trinity segment would get the video taken down. It’s almost like she decided to wear that thing backwards, IYKWIM. 😂

[@ramses1500]

Why is this so good lol

[@arifhussain-dl1vp]

Jeff Jerret was everywhere 50% of the episode was about Double J.

[@thefloridaman41]

Anyone else see the newest Dark Side of the Ring? Jeff Jarrett attacked Hogsn for booking himself too strong with his creative control… glad Jeff Jarrett was always willing to put people over in NWA-TNA.

[@jopilot4126]

Aswell he said he thought Vince russo was crazy during the bash 2000 then hired him 2 years later.

[@thehorrorhound6575]

I didn’t know that but that’s honestly hilarious from a guy who’s reign of terror in TNA is considered worse than triple H’s evolution reign of terror by old school TNA fans

[@MrRjh63]

That statement says it all about how oblivious he is to his own bs. Im still thinking he will have a title at some point in AEW as well.

[@jabbarmuhammad8804]

Aj styles is one of my favorite pro wrestlers but that last tag team match he was in was terrible

[@AmericanBaldy]

26:09 looks like AJ got hit with a low blow before he could connect with the pipe.

[@Markyd123]

Yea seen that now but it looked terrible

[@BFeast-jd5xq]

It's crazy that you can feature AJ Styles buttocks bare, but give Trinity some equality, censorship ruination occurs. Wonder why?

All due respect to Dusty, but him being portrayed as any kind of threat to young AJ Styles in the early 2000’s was ridiculous. Yeah I wish they’d have given Trinity more to do as well. I hate how they booked AJ at around this time.

[@petesmart1983]

Aj was always cheesy promo

[@jayharv285]

AJ was never a huge promo guy. He could cut a decent one every now and then but his problem was the way he pronounces words due to his Georgia accent

[@donzellmccalipp8510]

@@jayharv285 I notice that by watching his old promos

[@thehorrorhound6575]

AJ had to basically learn how to cut decent promos on the fly (since TNA was never scripted like that) and although he got as I said decent I mean just check out his promos with Christopher Daniels and joe when the three were the faces of the x division or his promos when he was in the Christian coalition and doing comedy stuff which I always felt he was good at. But once he got to WWE and the promos were all scripted and had to follow a very strict guideline you can see with his mic work involving Jericho and miz he was struggling again, going from improv to scripted couldn’t have been easy but he adapted just like before and he’s pretty decent now at WWEs style too.
