[@mkmmkm9471]

I am so glad KZbin was invented. Your Darker Side of the Ring series is TV quality, in my opinion, and are all really interesting as well as being well put together.

[@paulvalentine1483]

Rest in peace, Mr. Bognar.

[@HOODKINGSofficial]

The Japanese always respected Bognar, they put him in all the old fire pro wrestling games as big titan & they made him strong to , I remember that

[@CeemPlay]

Say hello to the fake guy

[@jonbourgoin182]

4:40 so a photo of Lance Storm smiling does exist

[@daerth4423]

LOL, I think that was the last time he smiled. You can tell it's causing him pain.

[@carlodurant87]

i love how you still refer to wwf as wwf just like i do

[@thecatwrangler9448]

Anyone who is not associated with the WWE will refer to it by its correct name dependent upon the era in which they’re speaking of: Capital Wrestling up until 1963, then the World Wide Wrestling Federation until 1980, then finally anything after 2002 we must refer to as the World Wrestling Federation due to those MONSTERS at the World Wild Fund for Nature! Bah-Humbug! (I’m kidding, they deserve the name more than Vince they had been called that since prior to his father ever called Capital Wrestling the WWWF)

[@AidanSynnPringle]

I spent some time on the road with Rick then he managed a gym in South Calgary I went to. This was just as he was writing his book. He was a nice guy. At least to me. He became a caveman after a few beers so we got along quite well. Heh heh. Rip ya big stiff.

[@FISTSLIKEBULLETS2]

I also knew Rick back in the early 90's he was working at the Back Alley as a bouncer he was 1 year younger than me , Then I lived by that gym on 12ave sw , would see him all the time talk and bs about old times I was also originally from Surrey BC Cloverdale and so was he from Surrey , years later I would still see him around at Safeway in Sunnyside that was the last times I seen Rick , He was a nice dude and I remember they had a couple Akitas in the gym on 12ave , Thanks for the time and upload , RIP Rick

[@FryngeMinority]

⁠@@FISTSLIKEBULLETS2I saw Rick working at the Back Alley in the late 90s, early 00s. I knew who he was but I was too intimidated to say anything to him. Those bouncers at the Alley were all huge but Rick was the biggest one of them all.

[@tyrone5969]

That would be terrible, being known as a literal fake for the rest of your life, being famous for it. He was put in a position where he couldn’t succeed and had his career permanently ranked because of it. He was booked into a no-win scenario.

[@ShadowAngel-lt8nw]

If it wasn't for that role, nobody would know him. He was a meaningless jobber who never accomplished anything outside of that infamous role.

[@Gameboy-Unboxings]

​@@ShadowAngel-lt8nwhe was world champion in two different promotions..

[@ShadowAngel-lt8nw]

@@Gameboy-Unboxings Wrong. Learn the difference between Heavyweight and World Champion first and then learn the difference between unimportant indy promotions that do shows in front of 100 people and big major promotions that actually can even be watched worldwide.

[@Gameboy-Unboxings]

@@ShadowAngel-lt8nw oh, wow. You're so smart. Not.

[@aleiterful]

Man if he’s not already in the hall of fame please let’s get the Brooklyn brawler in

[@matthewlane518]

He was always there, all those years, he deserves it I agree

[@alfredjr.hearns]

Didn't know all that about his career before WWE, good job and thanks yeherrme

[@darowemcmillon2724]

If you see some of the offensive linemen who retire, you wouldn't know they played how small they got afterwards. He looked that way as a motivational speaker.

[@ButtersCCookie]

Someone told them that's the position thru could play after pee wee football. They aren't usually naturally fat. Why do you think they're injury prone. Ligaments and muscles constantly stressed instead of just being naturally or unnaturally overweight. Steroids or not

[@rudycanales2681]

Vince acts like they can't come up with backup plans and toss peoples life's aside like it doesn't matter, it's ridiculous

[@BENNY_MAC]

Damn Brooklyn Brawler still looks ripped

[@darowemcmillon2724]

Next to Barry Horowitz still one of the best enhancement talents, he probably could still put over some of the talent

[@BENNY_MAC]

@@darowemcmillon2724 absolutely! I still remember Barry. Patting himself on the back lol 🖐

[@RocBoiBaccInTown]

​@@BENNY_MACI really remember gorilla just yelling Barry horwitz Barry horwitz... After Barry got the surprise win over someone I forgot who it was.

[@Hoovie9596]

Excellent video as usual…your channel is blowing up ! Please do one about the WFWA Winnipeg promotion. Alot of big names went thru there.

[@kenterminateddq5311]

I always wondered why nobody on A&E nor anyone from KZbin covered Kayfabe Ramon. Of course, we know what happened to the Fake Diesel (who was a former dentist and became a future Hall of Famer) but I think I was the only one who wondered who played the Fake Razor Ramon. Thank you, Original Wrestling, for covering the career of Kayfabe Ramon, Richard Bognar.

[@GaiaMisery]

Another awesome video ! Great work on all these !!!🎉

[@sklba632]

If you're taking requests for this series, the scant information on Chris Colt makes for a fascinating tale. I'm sure if you could dig up something more, it would certainly help spread the legacy of a man who has been seemingly lost to history thanks to most of the footage of his existence being destroyed.

[@theringallothersports5784]

Couldn’t agree more!

[@carlcoles1012]

Got to see him in Detroit wrestling for The Shiek at Cobo Hall

[@ButtersCCookie]

Whi? Why was it destroyed? ISIS got ahold of it?

[@nicolemerrill9167]

Great job buck

[@1joshjosh1]

As a Canadian... and as a wrestling fan... I just gained a whole bunch more respect for this man.

[@dolphenwulf2431]

That is sad. R.I.P

[@GodFirstTalkk]

I remember seeing his in AAA as the fake razor ramon

[@MrOtwisted]

Vince screwed Rick Bognar

[@jon-nb3fo]

Vince screwed around with alot of wrestlers HBK was his little boy toy 😍

[@georgemonde8237]

Pat Patterson screwed the Brooklyn Brawler

[@chadk890]

Can't blame everything on Vince. That's getting old already. That's like blaming Bischoff for The Renegede

[@MrOtwisted]

@@chadk890 Vince told him to never call him again. He created a terrible gimmick then treated him like trash.

[@TopGJP]

Vince screwed Vince…and then payed himself off lol

[@mringram]

Sad story

[@jokerswank6082]

That fake razor gimmick was the worst gimmick this guy was given. Should've had him as his Big Titan gimmick in the wwe. He mightve gotten over

[@darrylskylar8757]

Rest In Peace🙏🤍🕊🙏♥️

[@freedom2084]

A 49 year old dies of a heart attack?

[@ShadowAngel-lt8nw]

Drugs and Steroids will do that. Look up how many wrestlers died of a heart attack between ages 35 and 50

[@freedom2084]

@@ShadowAngel-lt8nw Damm Thanks

[@1alsturgeon]

6'5 and the same height as 7 foot Kane lol.

[@BENNY_MAC]

RIP Rick

[@toomuchsaucePAUSE]

Great video man, good information that I did not know. SALUTE!! 💯

[@Taylormademan900]

Is it normal to be 49 passing away from a heart attack

[@stephanienoblet8503]

Not really unless your a professional wrestler they usually get into drugs or alcohol and it cuts their lives short

[@darrylskylar8757]

Please do Wahu McDaniel and Jimmy Valiant next!

[@abellabarbie]

I've never been this early.

[@-XKHAN-]

I really liked New Razor!! Did not know he passed away!! Rest In Peace Nick Bogner!! You definitely got my respect!!

[@toddsmods.623]

😂😂

[@ferox965]

For a "brilliant" man, Vince McMahon sure could be awfully stupid at times.

[@von2300]

Just like Rick Williams, Rick Bognar was only doing what he was told. It's a damn shame.

[@yadielenielbellecolon982]

Thank For The Video 😇🙏🏿🕊️🐑

[@josephmiller9424]

Kane couldve pulled diesel off if he had been the first he is even bigger then Nash but Nash is way better on the mic.

[@Dr.Thirteen]

way, WAY better wrestler as well!!

[@ButtersCCookie]

Glad to know if him. Far from fake.

[@charlesclark9627]

The fake Diesel and Razor gimmick was a fail right off!

[@Gameboy-Unboxings]

17:02 😮 thats absolutely sickening, man.. seriously.. just ew.

[@DeadKoby]

If Bret Hart liked Rick's work.......something tells me WWF could have done better letting him be more like Rick Titan.

[@Teddy42O]

15:28 - 15:33 😂😂

[@GodFirstTalkk]

He was part of nWo Japan

[@drudawg4208]

Hey I grew up in Surry ^-^

[@wrestlingwithart]

Maybe Fake Razor would have worked if he had chest hair. Lol

[@charlesclark9627]

No!

[@charlesclark9627]

If they brought in him in as himself maybe!

[@charlesclark9627]

Vince thought we were all stupid!

[@A..D..D]

Razor Raymond

[@norlinblack5017]

Wrong place at the wrong time. What if he had turned Vince McMahon down? Would Bret be mad at him? Would Vince give him another chance at a different time? Would Vince even remember him if he did give him another chance? Who knows. Hindsight is 20/20.

[@howardsimcox5596]

Why is the fish?

[@RisingRecluse]

1 minute in, why would he keep the gimmick after he left? All it got him was indifference.

[@sonofstinkfoot9551]

8:56 SIGN LOL TIME TRAVLING TROLL "HEY DIESEL FIX MY TEETH!! IS RAZOR BIGGER THAN TEAM TITAN!!! NO INTERNET THEN A SMARK FO SURE GBYAA!!!!!!!!!!!

looked bloated and addicted

[@grayrecluse7496]

You should do one on the fake Goldberg.

[@Dr.Thirteen]

and the fake undertaker and fake golddust :)

[@daveschannel747]

Not much of a relevance, but did have a gimmick ..and was on television... wrestled some of the best... I just wasn't sold on the rip off gimmicks..but I will say that I did like how Jerry Jarrett had the fake Razor and Diesel.. anything Memphis did was genius

[@shilledoutbyfers2445]

They chose the two ugliest wrestlers they could find to be Diesel & Razor.

[@Usedplungerstotheface]

I farted

[@Gameboy-Unboxings]

Nasty b****.

[@waynesworldofmodeling2574]

Ohh yeah he overdosed on pills because he was a pill head

[@GryHen-pg9iy]

It's crazy that both razors are gone, but both diesels are still here. Sad! Honestly when taker did his retirement speech, both Kevin and glen were there, I wish glen would have come out as fake diesel while Kevin was standing right there lol. That's a rib to both Kevin and mark lol

[@dr.options]

Great job. A pretty obscure topic, but very well covered.

[@sklba632]

Pretty obscure, pretty obscure....the man was filmed multiple times in three different countries who all broadcast the footage. The footage still exists. And some of it's currently available to anyone on the planet who wants to see some of it You need to work on your definition of obscure mate.

[@Gameboy-Unboxings]

​@@sklba632dude, I was thinking the same thing. I hate this trend of people using words that they don't even know the definition of....
