In Puerto Rico, if you get drunk or high and mess with the wrong guy, no matter how big and tough you are, it is a good way to stop living. And the local cops will not do much about it.

[@RobHiggard]

That's the U.S. in general

[@vinceraven1501]

Manny Fernandez vs Abdullah the Butcher at Starrcade that year is a bloody classic lol... Only saw him briefly in the late 80s & a few times in the 90s, but, I always heard how great he was & he never made it bigger than he was.. Always wondered about that.. Him & Rick Rude leaving the NWA during their tag title run was strange too.. Guess it was his personal problems..

[@FerretJohn]

People like to claim that every word out of Hogan's mouth is BS, but compared to guys like Manny or Bobby Jaggers Hulk is a straight arrow.

[@mox19380]

but perhaps he has more reason to lie. unlike hogan fernandez achieved relatively little compared to his contemporaries. so at least he has some excuse to inflate his personal achievements. Unlike Hogan whose personal accomplishments leave little need for embellishment

[@FerretJohn]

@@mox19380 So you're saying it's okay to lie about your accomplishments if your accomplishments weren't that great? Here's a little word for you: Schadenfreude, it's a psychological term for the pleasure and satisfaction one feels over the humiliation and misfortune of others, it's the core of Celebrity Gossip, the greater the status of the person humiliated the greater the pleasure you feel. The great Truth of the World: Everybody Lies, I lie, you lie, if you're married you lie your ass off. Pro Wrestlers lie for a living, they're storytellers, it's literally how they make their money. Old wrestlers have been playing the game so long telling stories is like breathing, Hogan is certainly not immune to that, but when Manny tells one of his Raging BS tales people just smile and say that's just Manny being Manny, but for Hogan it's proof of what a huge piece of shit he is, fans devote entire in-depth videos on his supposed lies. Why? Because like him or hate him Hulk Hogan is the GOAT, and people love seeing the GOAT fall. But the thing of it is, while Hogan has told some tall tales, engaged in hyperbole, or misremembered certain details, the only one who lie more are Republican politicians and online fanboys trying to look smart. Half the lies they claim Hulk Hogan has said Hulk Hogan has never actually said, and some are true but nobody wants to believe them.

[@johnfalcetta5431]

I wonder how Dutch feels about Manny lying about going to Vietnam. Since Dutch really went.

[@donjulio4025]

He wasn't lying, he was in Vietnam and showed proof to cornette

[@mrcold8966]

He did, really? Wow what a scumbag

[@KClouisville]

@@mrcold8966 Not only lied about it...but also claimed he was a SEAL! This was after initially saying he was a marine. Trouble is, combat operations were over with in Vietnam when Manny was still like a senior in high school.

[@kevthegoat8774]

​@@KClouisvilleClaimed he played in the NFL too?

[@KClouisville]

@@kevthegoat8774 He likes his tall tales....I heard he once cleared some forest with Paul Bunyan & Babe The Blue Ox.

[@ericrobertson2024]

Raging Bull took on an entirely new meaning.

[@junioralsept9335]

I remember Rick Rood and Manny Fernandez were NWA World tagteam champions before Ric jumped to WWF..

[@Rob78169]

Plane loads of people headed to Puerto Rico now!!

[@archie_football74]

Manny “The Ragin Bullshitter” Fernandez

[@josh9422]

He always reminded me of cheach from cheach and Chong when he was in wrestling back in the day

[@Will-ok5mi]

I digress from the subject, this just randomly popped into my head. James, you and William Regal sound very similar... Are you from the same region of the UK? Lancashire?

[@kevinbbadd]

That's his step dad.

[@user-wp5yd3kp6o]

I’d rather hear Manny Fernandez tell a Manny Fernandez story, DADD-AYYYY! 😂😂😂

[@themobseat]

I rather read a comment by Manny Fernandez than your comment. 🤣🤣🤣

No he shouldn't

[@r0ckstar666]

@@maceomaceo11 did you see the match he had with invader 3 in 1988 in the Puerto Rico territory? Dude should be in the hall of fame on that match alone

[@maceomaceo11]

@@r0ckstar666 Seen it. Have you seen the interview where he says he'd never go back to Puerto Rico for what those murderers did to his brother Bruiser Brody just months before that match. Using Brody's murder to work an angle and make money directly from it is the precise reason he is in no HOF anywhere. Your example you make for him is the exact reason he doesn't belong.

[@stephenzayfert9356]

Remember him in Florida tied to Dusty.

Raging Bull - Crap

[@14glen88]

Why no show this week?

[@billday6744]

Didnt Manny play for the Dolphins at one time ?

[@johnfalcetta5431]

Different Manny Fernandez. Although Manny has claimed it was him.

[@merccadoosis8847]

Altogether different Manny. Dolphins made him their #1 draft choice hoping he could draw Hispanics into the stadium. Problem: Manny did not speak Spanish. It was rumored for years that Spanish was the only class he ever failed while in school. Still, he did have a stellar career.

[@PlayerToBeNamedLater1973]

Anthony Munoz was one of the greatest football players ( and quality people)in history and even he couldn't draw Hispanic fans to the NFL t​@@merccadoosis8847

[@kevthegoat8774]

Manny was a very good wrestler but is also one of the biggest carnies to ever come out of the business. He was a legit tough guy but his whole background was a work. He wasn't a State Champion in high school, never played in the NFL and never served in Vietnam or was a SEAL.

[@ericrobertson2024]

Manny could've been a World Champ...Good worker,excelled as a heel or face,Dusty and other bookers liked him .

Things must be different in the south. OxyContin, oxycodone, Percocet, are all controlled substances and have always been controlled. These synthetic opioids all need a prescriptions.

[@lancer2029]

Not in beautiful Puerto Rico. Territory but not a state. Less regulated back then.

[@PlayerToBeNamedLater1973]

Oxycodone and Percocet are the same thing. Oxycontin is a synthetic opioid but Oxycodone is a true opiate. It's a natural extract of opium. All are heavily regulated as they should be but it's a shame that physicians are now afraid to prescribe them because they can improve quality of life for certain conditions.

[@g3everex]

A drunk liar!
