Jerry Sags on Funniest Guys, Best Jobbers, Road Agents, Who Was Packing Heat | Name Association

[@nomikes4392]

I spent 30 years in court listening. It is surprising how rare attorneys, witnesses or anybody actually answers the questions asked them. This guy listens, answers the question, and stays on point. Add in his genuine, general niceness and its powerful stuff

[@mattjarrells]

No way my 14-year-old self would EVER think Saggs would sound like this. He's a very great guy and great interview!

[@packrat2473655]

I’ll tell ya …..when I started watching this set of clips , I would have never ….ever….. thought that saggs would be so cool and articulate, and well spoken. Nothing like his character. .. hope he gets a lot more interviews with other company’s. He’s a pleasure. … What a surprise.

[@jonbourgoin182]

Agreed. Knobbs probably doesn't help people's perception of what Saggs might be like. It'd be easy to assume Jerry is equally as loud and obnoxious.

[@jamesshyla]

Totally agree..I've never seen any other interviews with sags so this was a must watch for me,and a genuine surprise..I'd love to see more with him

[@ZenOfMKVLI]

I think Sags is gonna get a lot of Shoot interviews calls after this, as a fan I just assumed he was a Knobbs level Trainwreck ... But now I see he's a great interview.

[@richardstetson8221]

There is a really good Nasty Boys rf video full career shoot interview on KZbin that is easy to find I think it's from 2008 you should definitely check it out if you haven't seen it

[@CJ-rl3xo]

Agreed but I think knobs is great interview too but must say this is the first I have heard Sags interviewed and he sounds like a very different character in real life compared to the nasty boy. Definitely know the nasty boy is in there though 😂👊

[@bkblair71]

I seen the video where The Nasty Boys was celebrated at the Cauliflower Alley Club and Knobbs spoke almost the whole thing. Would not shut up. Occasionally Sags would say something. Didn’t even recognize him until he stood on the stage. Looks great.

[@ZenOfMKVLI]

@@richardstetson8221 gonna find it , thx. I am extra interested with the time they broke into the business and where etc. When I was 9 , we got lucky enough to have a pretty decent stretch of having cable TV and I discovered early on into it ... The ESPN AWA wrestling from the Showboat casino. Was already super into wrestling and this was an alternative that was on multiple days a week. Whereas WWF was just on once every other weekend for an hour of squash matches at the time. I definitely like the stories from around that time. ESPN wrestling used to come on at about 4 pm Denver time and it was right after Roller Derby. I remember it taking me a long time to figure out that Razor Ramon - WCW Scott Hall was in fact that same Scott Hall from AWA who teamed with Curt. Good times Thanks for recommending

[@johnnazarian6885]

I was about to say the same thing. Good personality

[@misterwills]

This shoot is amazing. Way to showcase how wonderful and articulate Jerry Saggs. I don't think I appreciated the Nastys enough. WSI continues to impress. Cheers Mate!

[@leedavies1475]

What a great interview so far. Never knew he was so articulate and comes across as a genuine decent guy. I assumed he'd be a knuckle head thug. How wrong was I

[@rickjames2.0]

Well he is 30 years older now. LOL

Eric Bischoff said Jerry Sags was nice but he had temper and would not take anyone's crap.

When I say it's over, it's over... Love that from Sags!

[@adambomb5381]

How in the Hell does Jerry Saggs sound and come across as a normal person whereas Knobbs sounds and comes across as a lunatic.

[@southin47639]

Knobbs is still doing dope and sags isn’t.

[@ifgwelf]

​@@southin47639 that's what I figured. Looks like Saggs probably has a good diet now. He looks younger than when he was young.😅

[@MrGrxxx123]

Sags look healthy and happy

[@smeagolbeagle2316]

Maybe it's the hat and glasses, but I keep seeing Zak Bagans from Ghost Adventures. 😂 And who else has said, "You on a time limit? The interview ends when I say it ends. Lets keep going." THAT is a class act!

[@timthegem]

Haha he does look like that Zak guy. I always cracked up when that dude would flex on some invisible demon, saying "Come on, you don't scare me!", then he'd jump ten feet in the air when a mosquito landed on him.

Gotta say James this interview was great, gotta have Sags on for a follow up soon

[@petermacchione7537]

This guy is so loveable compared to his partner. I’ve listened to knobs talk, his history just not a fan. This guy I’ve heard story he’s legitimately tough and has a heart and is an articulate speaker and more so not a douche bag. He looks wonderful as well. I enjoy listening to him. You would think it was 2 different people in the looks category. Him and Al snow B Brian Blair have done well holding it together!!

[@scoot7909]

My vote: Weekly Podcast with Saggs

[@jonbourgoin182]

Would be cool but it seems James has far too much on his plate already to add yet another exclusive podcast.

[@jasonbink5276]

First time hearing Joey Marella was a comedian. One of the goat refs. Gone too soon.

Bret Hart said he would do impressions at the bar and crack the boys up. Would have loved to hear some of his stories from the road.

Should ask him about the WCW/Scott Hall chair-throwing incident. And/or the Ken Shamrock hotel fight.

[@worlds-in-conflict]

Wow, Sags seems a lot more chill than I expected.

[@ThunderWarrior01]

I grew up in a tiny village in middle England and there was this particular family who lived in the dirtiest house with an outside toilet and only cold running water. They only had a black and white television and all their clothes came from jumble sales and they smelled bad and i mean bad..the one thing now thinking back they never got sick, not a cough or cold and definitely not the flu. All of them are gone apart from two and to this day when I see the younger one i ask how he’s been and he still says he’s never been ill.. he was the only other kid who loved wrestling and nearly died when he saw a video game console in my house back when we were in primary school (he’d bath round my house because my mum thought he was great,well mannered and respectful and loved playing in my treehouse. He got adopted by a teacher because of his poor life and treatment by his mum and grandmother they beat him bad

[@jumbothompson]

[@richardstetson8221]

Dutch told the story about the inhaler in a old shoot interview

[@bigglilwayne7050]

Dr D always packed heat and enjoyed shooting at road signs.... Then there's the Superstar, it's impressive that he was able to retrieve his pistol from the trunk of his car after getting sucker punched by Savage considering his small size in stature lol

Did he need a step ladder to reach into the trunk?

That was just great in 90 I think. It’s VHS somewhere in my place. Ha ha.

How did Knobbs get the job in wcw in '99 doing the hardcore singles thing? Why wasn't it Sags? Did they prefer Knobbs' look? Did Sags not want it? Was Knobbs more of a friend of Hogan's?

Injured

[@kazman_6899]

@@davidgriffib4712 yeah, I read that on his wiki. I'd say it's a shame, but I don't think there was in place for them in either company. And Knobbs would have been the better pick over Sags for singles, and they were only doing him a favour. Unless they were hard-up for talent to put in that spot, which I can't imagine. I guess ecw could have reinvented them before the company went out of business.

I've had some smelly days but that sounds like OSHA should of been called in to spray that wrestler down . Great stories . Nasty boys were always a great performance. I didn't follow wrestling as much after McMahon took over the whole gig. Because you never really saw your favorite wrestlers as much as you did in the smaller federations ..I enjoyed the fans up close with the wrestlers threatening to fight them as much as their opponents. Never to return .the younger generation will never know what they missed out on.. I just want to add I think it's a shame how old time wrestlers have to struggle financially, . They were the ones that made McMahon. Without them there is no money for the McMahons of the world.. Great podcast, great questions, I think the referees were awesome as well back in the day.. even when they pissed you off by not seeing the foreign objects

[@user-wp2uo7cc8n]

Like a lot of others are saying. I’m surprised how normal he sounds. He did his job back in the day. I couldn’t stand him as a kid lol

[@zemmons5000]

One, you asked him what time it was and told you how to build a watch 😂. Okay these will be rapid fire questions blew right over his head. Also id love to see who people would say is the biggest embellisher. The top guys will probably say Hogan but i am willing to bet a lot say manny Fernandez. My goodness the lies just don't stop with him. Him saying his name made me think of that

[@CSorglos]

a northern town of Germany.... Munich? Nice suggestion. ;-) Let me put it this way: Munich (München) is the biggest southermost city in Germany's southernmost federal state. So no, Munich is not a northern city. But Bremen is. Hamburg is. Stralsund is. Kiel is. Flensburg is. These are important big nothern german citys. Maybe it was one of them. No offense intended, just a small hint...

[@mikejejenich-pb5zx]

This is a prime example of of a misconception of wrestlers being or acting like there character. Hes not at all. 👋🤣
