I think I've heard flair say that Barry was one of the best and underrated wrestlers ever.

If you ever saw Barry wrestle, you know he ain't underrated

1 of the most athletic big men ever in wrestling. 6'7 in his prime and could move like a lightweight.

Barry Windham one of the best underrated wrestler i have ever watched

Barry's matches vs Naitch are the stuff of legend...I watched many of their 1 hour matches, and man, you were on the edge of your seat throughout..Barry would come ever so close to pinning Ric, but never could....just pure and classic wrestling...

I remember when Windam and Rotundo were tag team champions in 1985. One of the greatest moments in WWF history

I totally agree Daniel R!!!

He was World Champ for a week. In the early 80's he beat Harley Race at the Forest High School auditorium in Ocala, Florida. I was there ringside. He pinned Harley his hand was raised and the referee gave him the belt. Come the very next Saturday morning on Championship Wrestling from Florida there was not a word said and Harley Race was still champ.

Damn he looks so much like his dad rip Black Jack mulligan

Love Barry Windham... one of my favorite wrestlers during his time, whether heel or babyface.

I love Barry, he comes across as a "no nonsense" kind of guy. ....love the interviews, Devon. #HannibalTV

Went to high school with Barry. Lost touch with him What a great guy he was and is

Dang!! Barry, Junkyard Dog, and Austin Idol were three of my favorite wrestlers back in the day.

Barry being a Horseman was his career highlight. Had fans embraced him as the #1 babyface in 86-87 replacing Dusty Rhodes, he would have never been a horseman. But by mid 87 he really hadn't gotten over with the fans. The fans may have thought, "We like Barry. But we like Sting, Luger, Nikita even more." So it was shortly afterwards they were seriously considering turning him heel and Horseman. It's all about having them really love or hate you. No middle ground. That's why the outrage at him becoming a horseman made his decision more appropriate.

Flair's two greatest opponents were Windham and Steamboat. They could go move for move with him and they both sold for him.

Bary windham. One of the BEST.thanks barry.👍👍👍

Rick had battles with 2 generations the Mulligans

Barry Windom and Dustin Rhodes, now that was a very good team

Please MORE Mr BARRY WINDAM PODCASTS !!!!!!!!!

I remember watching a non title match on television one Saturday, classic.

In the early 80's Barry beat Harly Race for the NWA world title in Ocala Florida at the Forest High School auditorium. I was there. The following week on CWF Harly Race was still champ like it never happened.

It was a Non Title match.

Barry, I've been a huge fan of yours, going back to the mid 80s. I was too young to go to the Clubs when I was in the military, and I really didn't want to. So sitting in the Barracks, wrestling was all I had and football. And I've been through Sweetwater several times. I'm a paralyzed Disabled Veteran now and would still like to meet you. I live in a VA Assisted Living Facility in Augusta, Georgia.

Thank you for your Service Brother 🇺🇲🇺🇲🇺🇲🇺🇲🇺🇲

Barry started out as a skinny, young wrestler and he decided to put on some weight later in his career. As you all can clearly see now, it's better to stay slim.

Best era of 4 horsemen was when Barry was in the group. He was great singles and tag wrestler. He had everything it took to carry a company. But who's to argue with a guy named Ric flair. Nature boy was a man. I'm glad we have a company like AEW now, at times they throw me back to those good old days of the four horsemen and Sting,.Luger, and the American.Dream

That lariat was no joke.

Barry Windham 🥰🥰🥰🥰

I miss Vader! Sad his heart gave out but man he was great. I remember in Winston Salem my son seen Harley and Vader beside the curtain. He had that stretch thing warming up. My son and his friend walk up and ask for his autograph. The next thing I see is my son running away. When he came back to where we were sitting I ask where is your autograph. He said Vader growled at him. Lol He was 8 years old then. Now he operates AML and Wrestlecade.

BW have mercy ❤️❤️❤️❤️

Windham was among a handful of wrestlers who were equally great in tag teams as he was as a singles performer.

Barry windham

My Favorite Horseman

Maybe the most naturally gifted wrestler of all time. He made everything look easy. No wasted movement and extremely fluid in the ring. The most recent wrestler with those gifts: Randy Orton.

i had the biggest crush on him.

This guy was Randy Orton before Randy Orton. Windham, like Randy, was a bigger guy but just could move like a smaller guy like lets say an Eddie Guerrero almost. Windham is one of the most talented guys in the ring I have ever seen.

People talk about Flair all the time the bottom line is Ric has probably been the hardest worker in the business

Clone of blackjack mulligan damn

Damn.

Looks like Wrestling paid a toll on Barry Windham. He was a Good Wrestler.

Barry windham doesn't even look the same at all. He really has let his self go.

Why didn’t they just make another replica belt and give it to Windham and say the belt Flair took to New York was fake?

It was announced that he was stripped of the title within 2 days of his departure because while Jim herd was running the second biggest promotion he still had no idea what he was doing. So even if you could go to the wrestling belt store conveniently located next to the partridge family bus dealership, Herd killed that idea from the beginning.

@Terry Scott - He did have a title run! The first six months of 1993!

Damn, did Barry ever put on some pounds after retirement. Just saying.

Barry is a nice guy but he never had the IT factor for me. He never developed a crap talking game. Too vanilla.
