Iron Mike Sharpe cuts an epic promo

He sounds like Jimmy Wicher from King of the Hill

That is pure awesomeness. I can picture a young Dwayne Johnson watching this and getting ideas...

"Let's get to the important stuff. I'm a Canadian, I'm from Canada, that's right! Are you from Canada?...

Ah, it doesn't matter anyway!"

Anything Iron Mike Sharpe is goodness. I was a fan in his jobber years.

Maybe Mickie James could go over that interview too and learn how to artfully dodge a delicate question like IMS did about his loaded forearm.

And it's good to see old Billy "Red" Lyons again.. "Invite the in-laws and the outlaws!"

I was an Iron Mike Sharpe mark before but this video just blasted him waaaaaaay up in the rankings. That guy is hairy gold.

BTW, can anyone make a gif of "BOOM!"

I didn't build em in no gym, pumping weights and taking steroids!!

One thing not a lot of people may know, but the guy had a voice that echoed throughout an arena. Every time he'd take a hit to the chest, he'd bellow like a bear wanting his dinner.

I remember Gorilla Monsoon would put over Mike's "leather forearm protector" as being something lethal, but I never seen anybody lose ground taking a shot from it.

He was a fun character. My dad liked him.

Here's a tribute clip of Sharpe where he uses the loaded arm brace to get some wins, including one over a young Curt Hennig.
