Tully Blanchard on Ric Flair

[@rodneytate5259]

Great interview.

Todd Clark seeing this interview Tully is a very nice guy !

Tully mentioned the businessman in the airport flashing the 4 fingers. Today's wrestling has lost those fans

Tully was a fantastic wrestler and talker. I have no idea what some of you have been watching. He is also a true class act.

[@DubyaDaLastRepugPrez]

Tully Blanchard was one of the great bad guy wrestlers of all time. I loved watching him as a kid. Very smooth, very charismatic.

The Horsemen were never the same without him. Flair was arrogant but likeable, you always respected Arn, but you always wanted to see Tully get his ass kicked.

That's what he said on the WWE DVD 📀

[@jameswest4259]

I grew up watching NWA in the early 80's and I loved the 4 Horsemen! Ric, Arn, Tully, and Ole with J.J. Dillon, they were never better!

[@DavidLucas-oj6ju]

I also grew up on wrestling in the 80s i watched WORLD CHAMPIONSHIP WRESTLING ON Saturday i loved the 4 HORSEMEN

I grew up watching the Horsemen too. I preferred Barry over Ole though

[@TheMisanthropeLives]

My high opinion of Tully has only improved over the years. He was one of the greatest heels ever in the business.

I could listen to Tully Blanchard talk all day...

[@kevinnash2444]

Awesome interview!! Great story by Tully going through o'Hare airport and a business man throwing up the four fingers. The Horesman are Legendary!

[@LoveScooby]

Tully still looks good, one of the smartest ring generals of all time. He didn’t have any weakness. I enjoyed you as the greatest world TV Champ and United States champ of all time.

[@normangrimm4581]

Flair was the leader of The Four Horsemen but Arn and Tully was the heart and soul of the group.

[@danielroninhernandez8119]

ONE OFTHE UDERRATED WRESTLERS OF ALL TIME................

[@chrischar9428]

UNDERRATED BY WHOM

[@Martin-jk2ng]

Tully is class. Full stop. He is undoubtedly one of the greatest of all time.

[@williamchristian8705]

He was great as a heel. I totally despised him as a character. Reality he was probably a wonderful person in real life. But he was so good at selling it you couldn’t stand his wrestling persona. He was like the obnoxious sports star in your youth.

[@zap_sigma1]

He still is. Easily one of the bezt heel managers in the biz today. FTR has really blossomed under his tutelage as a tag team. Tully is a consumate professional.

[@jupiterjohnson7191]

Thanks Hannibal, Tully is overshadowed! Discovered this guy on AEW, the horseman were before my time. I grew up on WWF! But man this guy had a physique!

[@Murph_.]

Philly LOVED the Horsemen! When we went, dressed in suits for wrestling to root for the Horsemen, we always had a lot of people with us, just as we had a lot of people against us. It was ALWAYS fun.

back in the mid to late 80s i was a huge fan of the 4 horsemen. i went to a few matches live and remember getting iced thrown at me for cheering them. even so ... tully was the one i HATED. he was the perfect heel. gotta admire and respect him.

[@michaelmaynard58]

In Philly we loved the Horsemen!

[@EManFXW]

Tully's 100% right about Philadelphia. I grew up in Philly and used to go to some of the house shows there as a kid and some fans would cheer them. Philly was definitely Horsemen town.

[@phillymamba2791]

Yes Philly definitely was. I was at those matches. At the old Civic Center. Those were the days

[@jimmoore811]

My buddies and i paraded around high school as the 4 horsemen.....great times

[@juanc1328]

Imagine if Gino Hernandez lived and Tully brought him in after Ole stepped away!

[@shawnhensley4884]

That would've rocked. Gino was made to be a Horsemen and they could've turned him face later. Gino gets bigger than the Horsemen and they jump him and fire him. Gino turns face and tags with Magnum against double-A and Tully. or maybe he demands a shot at Flair's belt.

[@rodolfolopez2370]

I remember my parents taking us to watch Southwest Championship Wrestling at the Memorial Colesium in Corpus Christi, Texas in the 70s. Tully Blanchard and Gino Hernandez were the best.

The "Tully strut" was one of my favorite things in wrestling back in the day. The sheer taunting nature of it was hilarious. I usually hate that type of behavior in real life, but in wrestling, it was perfect, especially if you were a Horseman.

I was theee perfect age when this all went down.. I dunno what years it was. but somewhere between 1983-1988. so I was 11-16 years old....good times. **I remember watching GoldenGirls from 9-10pm on Saturday nights then WCW at 10-11 when Tully Was TV Champion/Four Hoursmen,,,, Then my Favorite was 11-12midnight Florida Wrestling with Kerry Von Erich,CHris Adams and I forget the rest. But I loooved the Florida version of WCW.. *The WWF was on fire.

He and Arn had such great chemistry together as a tag team. IMO they were the driving force behind that group because they could put on great matches. If Vince were smart, he would bring Tully in part of the creative team to work with the newer talent.

Tully is humble here. There was a serious segment of the men wrestling fans and sporting fans alike that were real Horsemen Fanatics! It's was the best 👌
