Gotta love Greg Valentine. I could listen to him all day.

[@johnliberty3647]

I really hated him as a child… Greg turns out to be one of the coolest dudes in these interviews

[@marcbarhausen8132]

Saw that "dark side of the ring" documentary. What a sad story! I knever knew, what a legit tough guy Adrian Adonis was in his prime

[@jimnfl7134]

the Graham family one could only watch once, way too sad in that one.

[@Zakktera]

Just watched it yesterday. I never knew as well. Very sad

[@kittychancool888]

[@davidwilliams560]

Adrian could bump better than half the WWE roster today rip Adrian

[@tron.44]

In more ways than one. Sniff, sniff....

[@PlushPenguinPal]

He could also hump better than half the roster today.

[@timoutlaw9763]

AEW roster also

[@shaynewest8757]

And yet you continue to watch

[@russellcampbell3500]

​Especially those talentless havks. who in aew even sells let alone like Adrian @@timoutlaw9763

[@luther1546]

I miss Hot Rod. great wrestler and actor. Cool guy.

[@Swaggybro77]

That's a shame they did Adrian dirty like that rest in peace to one of the greatest wrestlers Adrian Adonis

[@scoh840]

I managed a restaurant where the wrestlers were in the habit of fueling up before they drove to their show destination. The wrestlers sat together in groups in back so that they could discuss private business and not be bothered by fans. Adrian always sat by himself at a 4 top table. To tell the truth, the others were disgusted by him, not just his weight, but his hygiene and habits. Everyone respected his skill, but he was not long for this earth.

[@stevenwheat3621]

2:35 Why did they zoom in on Piper? I guess they thought he was gonna tell a story, but HERE COMES PIPER tangentially steering off like he does.. He's always been unhinged. One of my favs!

[@richardbrisco]

Well pop squeak as his birthday day twin unhinged that was this morning it’s full scale now

..and please remember Greg "the Hammer" Valentine 😁😁👍😊🎉 Because he just was a a charismatic star in his time. I ask for your respect for Greg. 🙏

You got it, bud. Valentine is a legend too.

[@JayceeGenocide]

Adrian Adonis was COOL AF

[@CatsClaw44]

Shut up troll.

[@bigmike2464]

Unfortunately, when Adrian's addiction was at his worst, he was not the same person. Before he died, he was working his way back, lost most of the weight he had gained

[@Zeitgeist997]

@18:50 Sabu is obviously the most intelligent MFer out of all of them. He hit the nail almost on the head. Physics would prove that the driver and the passenger would take the blunt of the force upon impact. So the other twin living is amazing and indicate that anyone else would have great chance of surviving....that's supported by Rocky Johnson's brother (who was in the truck behind them with the ring crew) recounting Adrian Adonis saying 'help me' and then saying 'there was no helping him'....after he cried and said he needed a moment about someone he hardly knew. Modern psychology indicates behavior like that and his actual words almost proves that is the same tone of behavior as an abused kid who don't tell on the teacher or priest assaulting them even when they're an adult. When Rocky Johnson's brother says 'there's no helping him' he's repeating what his abusers made him say after grooming him (or scaring him). So what I'm spelling and putting together for even the greatest block head is that they murdered Adrian and the promoter to steal their money. The other twin took a force and was unconscious (Adrian was saying 'help me' so he wasn't unconscious cause he took less force) so the other twin would not know what happened plus the way aholes think is based on what they can fool others in to believing based around the situation. So aholes would save him cause he didn't have anything of value and use that to cover up murdering the others (keeping in mind that tge driver was gonna die regardless cause of taking the most impact) while thinking everyone is either corrupt or stupid so they were certain that they could cover up murdering them by saying they were saving the other twin. They got a way with murder due to incompetent investigators

[@LanceBass2022]

Adrian picked the wrong one with Dan Spivey. Dan was a legit collections man on the streets, they called him "One Hand Dan". One hit was enough.

[@canadiantraveller281]

Brantford On was the WWF Canada taping city. Homeof Wayne Gretzky ✔️

[@buckster2575]

What spivy said is true and Adrian got his ass handed to him.

[@joegausch]

Piper reminds me of David Lee Roth. Ask either a simple question and 45 minutes later no one remembers the question because 10 thousand other rambling subjects were brought up

[@Tsaunders1307]

lol

[@brettbanta2100]

Lots and lots of cocaine.. lol

[@superglou913gomez3]

Cocaine's a hell of a drug.

[@joegausch]

How about it. Especially that 80's Rockstar Coke..

[@warshipsatin8764]

​@@superglou913gomez3cocaine does do that, but those guys are naturally like that because of adhd. marty jannetty is the same way

PIPER!!! AMERICA, F YEAH!! 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉😊

[@carlosdanger947]

Does anyone understand anything that Piper said?

[@y2flu]

never could understand much of what he said. I always felt he was overrated on the mic, just overly hyper and all over the place

[@ZenOfMKVLI]

He was great when he was young imo He took a nose dive later 80s going forward and really lived on his reputation for a long time. His later WWF and WCW runs were underwhelming enough that his rep didn't really keep him afloat legacy wise.

[@crazycountryboy8941]

He was underrated

Absolutely. He was tremendous to watch

Piper was high on something. He couldn’t stop fidgeting lol. Look at his pupils. Love the Hot Rod! I always loved Adrian until the flower shop crap. But for someone that everyone says was so tough….. I guess Spivey is a seriously bad ass dude! RIP Adrian Adonis! You are a legend and you should be in the hall off fame!

[@DzHarryNuttz]

Yeah, I thought the same thing

[@lawrencestimpson6669]

So what? Who are you to question pipers habits??? Put on the glasses

[@dungeonsdumbbells]

Hamilton Cops Coliseum is outside T.O. ?

[@josephmiller9424]

Big Dan Spivey is right why do people grab a person around his or her arms so they are defenseless and the other get free shots R.I.P to him but he deserved every punch

[@y2flu]

they were trying to hold him back because they knew he'd kill him. I talked to a couple guys who were there and they said Adrian tried to get up and lunge at Spivey a couple more times and every time he did, Danny would smash him again

[@LetsGroove2Nite.]

So many wrestlers were stiff in the ring when they wanted to be with rookies especially,what Adonis was doing to Spivey was nothing like someone like Yokozuna would do to rookies , it was unprofessional by Adonis but more unprofessional by Spivey for forgetting what sport he’s in.

[@williamrand7498]

Wtf man!? They did him dirty. So sad

[@jamesmccormick875]

Adrian didn’t die at the crash, he died in the hospital after the crash. They weren’t drunk, the survivor said they saw a bear cub, swerved to miss it at went off the embankment into a shallow river.

[@canadiantraveller281]

You are correct. Stayed 200m from the hotel he died in last year...in Gander

It’s too bad he let his body go cuz he looked decent in the early 80s but dman how he let himself go late 80s

❤❤😅😮😊😅

[@LetsGroove2Nite.]

Dan Spiveys recollections gets more absurd each time there is a new shoot interview on Adonis , so he was responsible for booking plans being changed by Vince and scuppering Adonis Hogan run of matches? Absolute garbage ... Adonis was liked by all the major BIG stars like Andre,Savage,Hulk,Piper, there’s not a chance in hell a low mid card Spivey had so much sway for this to happen ,a sucka punch at best by Spivey ,he would of been fired instantly for going into business for himself

[@johnfalcetta5431]

Yet everyone Orton, Brunzell, Hillbilly Jim and a few others back his story completely

[@y2flu]

he was fired once Adonis was ready to return. I've personally spoken to some of the guys who were there and they said Spivey totally dismantled him. Spivey's name isn't often brought up when people talk about the toughest guys in the business, but I assure you he was one of the toughest.

[@brettbanta2100]

​@@y2fluI remember seeing an interview where Undertaker said Spivey was not a dude to F with

[@y2flu]

@@brettbanta2100 in his book Dynamite Kid talks about how he was very quiet but if you set him off he was a destroyer. He said it was like he had razors or something in his knuckles because every time he threw a punch his opponent would be gashed

[@TheDeadlyTikka]

Nothing fake about his story, he beat Adrian up in the ring and then dropped him in the locker room. Multiple other wrestlers have backed the story up. He cut Adrians face pretty badly so he was away getting healed up so his feud with Hogan was called off. Spivy was also fired not long after.

This is a lame video...just trying to piggyback from dark side of the ring episode...

[@TitleMatchWrestling]

Dark Side is incredible but we've been producing interviews on Adrian Adonis years before VICE TV was even a channel

[@darkhorse1280]

@@TitleMatchWrestling But you did time these interview snippets with the release of his Dark Side episode, did you not?...

@@darkhorse1280 No we released all these interviews long before Dark Side was announced for a 4th season

[@darkhorse1280]

@@TitleMatchWrestling Geez, you really think so?...All this time I thought you resurrected Roddy Piper and Bad News Brown from the dead to conduct these interviews...smdh. What I'm saying is you obviously edited these snippets of past interviews to coincide with the release of the Adrian Adonis DSOTR episode in order to boost your channel's algorithm. Pretty scummy move to piggyback off his misfortune like this.
