30 Most INSANE Things Wrestlers Have EVER Said On Live TV
1. New Jack Shouts Out OJ
Ending where this all began with New Jack in his own incendiary words, this time before even the extremest of society in Philadelphia had experienced his verbal wrath.
This tape traders' favourite was saved for those in attendance at a Smokey Mountain Wrestling taping in July 1994. While WWE were promoting a match featuring The Undertaker Vs The Undertaker and the world looked on at a story bigger than all sports and sports entertainment anyway, Jack was prepared not just to grapple with his own mind but fight the entire world when he said;
"Let me tell you something! 30 years ago we would have been strung up in somebody's tree getting hung for beating two white boys the way we just did. But now you might wanna come out here and put some belts on us, but the only belts we gonna be wearing around here is the Tag Team belts!'
He continued;
"Let me tell you something, I don't like being up here. I was getting out my car, I slipped and fell in some tobacco spit and you know what I'm sayin'. Nothing but rednecks up here! Nothing but geeks up here! Nothing but coal miners up here! Chicken farmers! Klansman! I don't like nobody but my partner, you understand?I don't care who you line up in front of me! I'm gonna show you how bad New Jack and Mustafa is. You wanna talk about violence? Violence to you might be putting somebody in a figure four! Violence to me is taking a can of gas and pouring it on ya and setting you on fire. Like me or not I didn't come up here to be liked. I came up here to get paid and whoever you put in front of me I'm gonna chop ya down!"
Ready to end with a flourish and make explicit what might have been simply implied to the Warrensville, North Carolina natives at the time, he went wildly up the gears in a way only he could.
"I would like to send a special shoutout to my homeboy OJ Simpson - keep up the good work baby, two less we got to worry about, you understand? Keep up the good work! Louis Farrakhan would be the next president! Snoop Dogg, we know you're innocent - you called me last night, you understand? Get ready Smoky Mountain because we're gonna set this place on fire!"
Jaws remained unhinged and/or on the floor after the words left his mouth, but Jack was unflinching and unmoved. For the rest of a controversial life in wrestling that followed, he lived the gimmick.
