Dynamite Kid Shoot Interview
<iframe width="420" height="315" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/fTUkiWjHp-k" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe>
Some say he was the best wrestler ever, but I don't think a person needs to abuse themselves and other people to be the best at their job. I never saw Tom Billington (a.k.a. Dynamite Kid) wrestle. He was before my time. I learned everything about him from reading Bret Hart's book and reading various other things about Dynamite Kid on the internet. If what I have read about Tom Billington is true, then that man deserved what happened to him. You can't just go around treating people however you like and think you're always going to get away with it. Having typed that, I still think Billington is a fascinating individual. I am glad he slapped the Honky Tonk Man and made him cry - That is the only thing he did that I agree with. I have never read Billington's bio, but I am going to at some point. I also would love to watch this documentary. |
He's a classy gent when it comes to the Ladies.
|
Of course. So am I. It's because we are looking to get laid.
|
Probably the biggest douchebag in wrestling
|
I agree. Good people make other people's lives better - Tom Billington made people's lives worst. He was a parasite.
|
I read a biography on the Harts and it detailed some stories about Dyanmite and Davey Boy from Stampede Wrestling and I can honestly say Dynamite Kid deserves to be crippled like he is. What an asshole.
|
Mick's jaw probably isn't a fan of his, either.
|
saw the trailer yesterday, been wanting to see this since it was announced. He's a prick but he's never pretended to be anything but
|
he's supposed to be doing one with RF Video as well, no idea if that is still happening
|
I don't think I've ever seen an interview with Dynamite Kid that didn't have subtitles.
Also, when the subtitles say "I told the bitch off", I'm pretty sure he said "I told her to piss off". |
What is wrong with his voice? Seems to be mumbling rather than talking.
|
Wigan accents are pretty hard to understand at the best of times but I couldn't make out half of what he said there. Then again, having his teeth knocked out won't have helped his diction.
|
Pretty sure they got the subtitles wrong at one point, he didn't say "I told the bitch off". He said "I told her to piss off"

You probably need subtitles so Royalty could comprehend you, bro.

I am an American and I have a lot of English cousins whom I speak to on Skype all the time and I understand them fine and they understand me. Given that we all speak English, why wouldn't we know what we were saying to each other? However, I had no clue what Tom here was saying at all in the above clip. Thank goodness for the subtitles. I think it's all the drugs he takes that makes his speaking skills so poor.

Is Pure Dynmite worth reading? I heard it was interesting but a bit ridiculous too.
|
I'm interested in seeing this. I do find him to be highly overrated though.
|
this is the same asshole who broke mgr JR Foley's daughter's kneecaps for insurance money. yet more shining glory for this despicable scumbag.
|
not sure anybody ever said "Tom Billington: outstanding citizen"
|
I thought my Welsh accent was that bad, didn't understand him, thank god for subtitles.

Pure Dynamite was one of the first wrestling biographies I read, It's a fun little read if you go into it with the right mindset. Dynamite's point of view is kind of predictable - (he's always right in every situation he's ever been in, He's the toughest guy who ever lived so everytime somebody beat him up, he was tripleteamed or something, ect.) IE typical Bully BS. Looking past all that, there's some very fun moments to be had from reading it. Stories about his no dq matches with Bad News Brown in Stampede, the famous Honky Tonk Man story, stuff that Harley Race and Magnificent Muraco did while they were wasted, & a story about killing a goat for an African wrestler's christmas dinner spring to mind.

Back on topic. Interested to hear Dynamite's versions of events. Hear so much about him but always from other sources. |

I am currently reading his book and I am enjoying the hell out of it. I don't think he is as much as a prick as I thought he was and he seemed like he was just a product of his environment - i.e. He fucked with people so they wouldn't fuck with him.
EDIT - The above were my thoughts early on in the book. Well, I finished the book, and while I may understand him better, he is still a major prick and a bully. |
