Yes he does in this interview and ties it into his own coerced comeback in the eighties when he worked with the likes of Rowdy Piper and Randy Savage. Speaking of the match he had with George Wagner, Sammartino was excited to wrestle him and felt it was a big deal. The match however did not go over well with the audience. According to Bruno, the fans in the sixties did not buy Gorgeous George as a legitimate threat to the World Chanpionship taunting him with reactions of “Go Home Old Man” and telling Bruno to “take it easy on the old man, he’s finished, he’s done”. Sammartino felt so bad for Wagner that he decided right then and there that he would never “wrestle old” and when Sean brings up his comeback, Sammartino disowns it.

Re that Rio de Janeiro thing: It's a common misconception that Pat Patterson was awarded the Intercontinental title after that "tournament" in Rio. The way it really was is Pat, in storyline, won the tourney to become South American champ. In WWF at the time, Ted DiBiase had the North American title that he had brought with him from, if I'm not mistaken, the Central States territory. When Patterson won that title from DiBiase in that controversial match on Championship Wrestling in the summer of 1979, they decided to combine the two belts into one and gave the new title the name WWF Intercontinental Championship.

I searched around and looked at many videos and interviews and I don’t see this opinion shared by many others . Buddy Rogers seemed to be and was by most accounts one of the greatest. And if you watch his match against Ric Flair when Rogers was in his late 50s ( it’s on KZbin) he still put on a great match. And I’d argue a better match that Bruno usually put on .

He was great but he was also a con man. He tried to take over territories from smaller promoters and hot shot business for a quick haul and then leave the territory high and dry and go to the next place. He was also a slip and fall guy. He would fall in a building or some property or business and then sue whoever owned it and whoever else he could connect to it and collect off those deals. Though he could be considered by some a good guy he was a shady character also.

If anyone negates either Buddy Rogers or Bruno Sammartino , I think you would be doing yourself a great disservice. Both were great but for different reasons, but both are legends. So Rogers may have been difficult and maybe dangerous with the boys, maybe Bruno just didn’t like Rogers, so be it, both are icons of the sport. I think Bruno was speaking truth in my opinion but I liked Rogers heel gimmick, he was THE HEEL in his day. We need both the baby face and the heel to tell a great story.

Done in the correct way, the best interview in terms of an example on how to do it and do it properly so it keeps respect for wrestling.

This is how wresting stars should’ve done their shoot videos, kayfabe should’ve tried to rebuild wrestlings respect instead of give us the truth we already knew deep down. I have watched them all say the truth and it hasn’t helped the stars of today. The stars from our greatest era made the most money and now expose the business all over again to the next generation and make it impossible for wrestling by today to get over with the next generation! It’s quite a sad realisation, knowing that the videos I’ve been enjoying have also been a huge factor in wrestling not being to rebuild. Bruno keeps it “Real” while still letting us behind the scenes but still keeping it believable too, that’s an art that’s seems lost now.

My guess is that Vince Sr. knew Buddy Rogers was a proven commodity, in that he knew Buddy was able to draw in fans to see him get beat, because Buddy was "the man you love to hate." The Northeastern promoters wanted him kept at the top of the card because he made them lots of money, simple as that. They were loyal to the money he brought in. That's why they wanted him to remain as world champ.

I loved Bruno but he was def in it for himself. He wasn't much of a seller in the ring or putting guys over outside the ring. Even up to his death.

@@MrAitraining exactly. he was a prima donna and an ego maniac. and he sucked in the ring. all he did was punch, kick, punch, kick, punch, kick, then a ten minute bearhug or test of strength. same match over and over. he didn't even have a finishing move. he would wait for his opponent to miss a splash or something and then just cover him and the guy wouldn't kick out.

Why would Bruno be jealous? There were three well paid wrestlers during his era. The NWA champion. Andre. And Bruno. Earning between $200 & $400K.

I was indoctrinated in 1961 in the eighth grade, my friends said hey, watch wrestling it’s pretty cool. One match on black and white TV and I was hooked for life. No one, repeat, no one could bring the heat like Rogers. Remember that the people that watched wrestling both live and on TV were virtually all WWII veterans and Rogers knew how to stir them up like no other. Fans flocked to the arenas fervently hoping that Rogers would get his ass beat. He was a former carnival employee and was a con man‘s con man. Bruno was spot on in his interview when he said that Rogers was supremely talented, physically had almost the best physique of any wrestler of his day, but was a true dirty dealer all the way around. A strutting, bleached blonde arrogant prick, he virtually made professional wrestling as the greatest heel ever. Bruno comes along and wins the title and becomes the quintessential good guy and was idolized by virtually everyone for many years. So they will both be remembered but for different reasons.

You are 100% wrong wrong wrong and I can prove it. Go out and ask 100 wrestling fans of all ages and ask them who was a better wrestler and who was more well known, Buddy Rogers or Bruno Sammartino? You will get 70-85% of your answers will be Sammartino.

He might have been at one time. However when Bruno came in to New York at age 23 weighing 285 lbs, benchlifting 565 lbs. Buddy at age 42 in 1963 had seen better days. Sammartino overpowered him in every one of their match ups. Bruno was tired of the fake finishes and wanted Rogers for real. Take a look at Sammartino taking Rogers for a ride. kzbin.info/www/bejne/poqcep6gaKt6qZY

When Bruno won the title from Rogers it only lasted 48 seconds because Rogers had a heart attack shortly before the match and was totally unfit to wrestle.

The media destroyed the wrestling business. The breaking of kayfabe. It all went to garbage 2001 onwards. Bruno should appreciate the good times, yet when they called him into the hall of fame, he said he liked the wrestling of the time (2014 ). To me, Bruno has his timeline incorrect. What was he trying to prove?
