He was great at being a monster heel and had a genuinely scary Presence."

mmcoor Posted February 23, 2022 Report Share Posted February 23, 2022 Over the past few weeks I have been watching a lot of Bundy and hes really underrated Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ricky Jackson Posted February 23, 2022 Report Share Posted February 23, 2022 Actually had a very solid run in multiple territories from 82-87, capped with the major peak of his WWF run. His WCCW stint in 82-83 really showcases his versatility, working babyface, heel, singles, tags, and doing promos and vignettes. Really surprised he wasn't nominated last time Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
elliott Posted February 24, 2022 Report Share Posted February 24, 2022 The Bundy & Rude vs Lawler & Savage matches and the singles match with Lawler are 3 of my favorite matches ever. Bundy is awesome Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CurtainJerker Posted March 10, 2022 Report Share Posted March 10, 2022 Great menacing character work playing the monster. I liked his World Class intro being a rugged babyface from Nome, Alaska- the crowd liked it. Good matches in Memphis. I was very happy to get his LJN action figure as a kid, and I liked his Saturday Night's Main Event run. Bobby Heenan helped him a lot. Bundy had limited movements, moves, and mobility in the WWF, so lots of his longer matches were boring compared to his TV squashes. Did not steal the show in WrestleMania 2, as the Hogan match was not as good as the Bulldogs vs Dream Team or Funks vs JYD + Tito. Did not like his Tony Garea MSG match or any of his Andre matches. His tag team with Big John Studd failed in comparison to later monster combos like The Twin Towers or Natural Disasters, or even the aura of The Colossal Connection.
