youtube.com/watch?v=t9dBIsh2-OI&search=wwfI'd heard that 'Quake could do one but had never seen it that I could recall. Here we see him do it (good elevation, too!) as well as Tugboat coming back with one of his own. Good stuff.

First time I watched the video, I thought Quake was doing a Shining Wizard to Tugboat... That had to be at least a 4 foot high dropkick, man that was awesome... Quake needs to be inducted into the HOF asap, I mean why is the Fridge' getting inducted before Quake??? WTF?!?! Where is the logic in that??? Quake> Michael Jordan [EDIT]: Sorry I meant Enziguiri, not a shining wizard...

Wow, that is amazing, nice one 'Quake!
Edit-From the picture it looks more like an Enziguiri (sp?).

Anyone that can do that is pretty dang good, but a guy as big as 'Quake? NO reason he shouldn't be in the HOF.
Just finished watching the whole match, they should induct them both as the Natural Disasters. *Applauds 'Quake*

I'll be honest, I didn't expect much from this match. I don't like big men matches. It's often just plain brawling, without much logic.
But this match, was actually pretty good. I liked Quake and Tugboat being equally matched and Quake had to take a risk to get Tugboat down. Which was a very nice dropkick. And then he could dominate him on the ground, but when Tugboat got up, both of them were equally matched again.
I liked that, it was a good, logical match. Matches like these can showcase a big wrestlers talent, because they can't just dominate and punch the smaller guy. They have to work to take each other down. And Quake Boat did that very well.

I have to ask, once Tugboat turned heel, were there ever any vignettes/announcements on his change from Tugboat to Typhoon, or was he just a sailor one week and a Natural Disaster the next?

Great dropkick there, another big wrestler who did some awesome dropkicks was Bam Bam Bigelow as well as other awesome moves like moonsaults!

I think it was a 6-man tag where it was the Bushwhackers/Tugboat vs. Nasty Boys (I think) and Earthquake, and somehow during the match Tugboat turned on the Bushwhackers, leading to the Summerslam 91 match between the two teams.

I remember the match (though if anyone can youtube it, I'd love to see it again), but I was wondering if he gave a shoot or there was a segment where he officially shed the Tugboat character.

Big Show actually delivered a good drop kick in his early years in WCW.

Man, I was just going to post this. The match where Tugboat turned heel took place at a WWF Superstars taping on May 28, 1991 in Tucson, AZ. According to The History of WWE, Tugboat kept wrestling under the gimmick until the match aired on June 15, 1991. At the very same taping, the Natural Disasters debuted with a win over Bob Abbott and Bill Sampson in 2:30 after a big Typhoon splash and a Quake Splash. That match aired on the June 29, 1991 episode. Earlier on that taping, Jake Roberts and Jim Duggan defeated the Disasters, with that match taking place BEFORE the match where Tugboat turned.

What did Typhoon think about the Tugboat gimmick? Was he glad to be able to drop it once he turned heel?
