I know his biggest notoriety was slapping reporter John Stossel to the ground after calling wrestling "fake". Just wondering if anybody knows anything else about the guy. Was he over with the fans? Did he have any noteworthy fueds? I saw some video footage of him on youtube.com, and he kinda reminded me of a precursor to "Stone Cold" Steve Austin.

He was pretty over from what I remember. He feuded with Hulk Hogan in both the AWA and the WWF. He also tagged with Eddie Mansfield and Bill Ash in some of the NWA territories such as Mid-America. He also had a feud with Playboy Buddy Rose in Portland in which was possibly one of the first heel vs heel feuds in wrestling

He was nasty, a heel who played it all the way. I hated the guy so much especially when I was a youth and watched him slap Stossel, who I thought was Geraldo Rivera at the time.
Ass Almighty.

Dr. D was a great redneck heel..... there's some footage on Youtube of him inviting the cameras into his house.... then he procedes to dicipline his kids, berate his wife, and just be an ass in general. He was the Stone Cold of the 80's without the crowd pop
