I Reserve the Stratosphere

From World Championship Wrestling 6/21/1986. A fantastic promo by the Dream.

I love this.... his voice just drops perfectly.... "I reserve the stratosphere..."

[@Iam_saeed]

Dusty on the mic.. Pure dynamite🔥

[@chrishopkins2054]

I love his cadence, if you wheel

[@tonystewart6627]

We truly miss the dream

[@jacobhughes91]

I have searched for this promo for two years. thank you

[@erictoniaschwab1009]

Thank you for this. I had stopped watching wrestling for years because I got tired of the cartoonish antics of the WWF. Then I watched this episode of World Championship Wrestling. It was the first time in years. At the end of this particular episode the Road Warriors were decimated by the Horsemen. Tully gave Animal a piledriver on the concrete floor! Legitimately ruined my weekend. And I LOVED this Dusty interview. And after this I watched wrestling again every Saturday until JCP shut down.

No script, no bullet points, just raw talent daddy. This is how promos are done and why no one today can do one like this

[@ICrane88]

This might be the Swan song if you will!!!

[@steveo10861]

Oh i will

[@80srocknroller]

The hottest ticket in town!

He was very effective at making you care about something you really shouldn't.

Who the fuck dislikes a dusty Rhodes promo man. Dusty always 2 sweeeeeet!

[@clava5717]

dusty was on one

[@Panwere36]

"The Horthmen.. they need to ride on another planet. cause I reserve the Thtratothpere for me and you!" "Lisp" and all.. that was why Dust Rhodes had all the booking power he had. Not a single member of the Four Horsemen ever could legit get over on the man.. not in the ring.. not in character.. not in promos.

David Welsh Dumbass he didn’t sound like that at all

[@MrMega4eyes]

if cocaine was a promo, it would look like this.

[@jonmolina948]

It’s not cocaine, it’s Dream Dust.

[@TheRealistFan]

NWA always had better mic game than WWE.
