Title: Rick Rude could have been a decent bodybuilder
Post by: Tennisballz on February 14, 2024, 01:34:04 AM
One of the better physiques in wrestling.  He was 6'3 though so he would have had to up the dose.

He had a superb physique but i always thought Ultimate Warrior, Tejas Tornado, Hercules, Warlord etc had more powerful physiques and better for bodybuilding


Rood was the better streetfighter of this bunch though (Not counting Haku)

Not even in the top 10 wrestling physiques. Loved his gimmick as a kid though. I would even practise the thrusting he did.

Great performer and stayed in shape year round. You don’t need big legs to be a pro wrestler.
Rude could work and talk and was a natural heel.  Another one who passed away way too young.  40 I think?

Did Bobby Roode ever go full Rick Rude gimmick? Remember seeing him a few times and he had the same look and physique and even the surname.

There were times when some guys were upping the dose and lean. Macho as Bonesaw was ripped, but his eyes looked like hell. Brutus as the disciple. Billy Graham. Orndorff had some years where he looked crazy.

Yeah apparently Rude was not to be fucked with. Ultimate Warrior's superior muscles wouldn't have helped him from the Ravishing One knocking his teeth out.
