The Wrestler
...no introduction...
and a true American,
the people's hero...
Randy "The Ram"...
Robinson!
And the Ram is up immediately...
throwing haymakers and a pile driver!
Here tonight on August 1, 1984,
mark it down,
Randy "The Ram" Robinson-
...18,500 fans in the nation's capital.
- They want to see the Ram Jam!
- Well, I'm frustrated
And outdated
- Ram Jam! Ram Jam! Ram Jam!
- I really wanna be overrated
I'm a finder and I'm a keeper
I'm not a loser
I ain't no weeper
March 23, 1988,
and Randy "The Ram" Robinson...
set to do battle with the Ayatollah.
...slapping the Ram in his face.
He doesn't realize...
what this can do to motivate
Randy "The Ram" Robinson.
Pounding the vice.
And it could be time for Ram Jam.
Bang your head
- The horns are out!
- The horns are out!
Metal health will drive you mad
Bang your head
...of the Middle East,
the Ayatollah!
Metal health will drive you mad
The Ayatollah will not let go.
He is punishing the Ram.
My goodness. How much can this man take?
The Ram right where we have seen him
so many times before...
playing right to this sold-out
Madison Square Garden.
The horns are out. Here it comes.
Ram Jam! My goodness!
One, two, three!
It's over!
That's one for the ages.

You know, people who drive the Cadillacs...
the ones with the politics,
they run the show.
- It ain't about ability, so you just hang in there.
- Yeah, I know, I know.
- All right.
- But, uh, as far as tonight...
I don't know what you wanna do.
I had a few ideas. I was thinking,
you know, maybe just for the heat...
- I would give you a low blow, follow it up with a bulldog.
- Just bring the cheap heat, bro.
- You guys should get the heat on us right away.
- All right.
Keep the heat on us, beat the sh*t out of us.
Boom, boom, boom, boom.
We'll come up, we'll get on the ropes.
- You guys bring us both in the hard way.
- Okay.
Then we get up, double dropkick,
we powder out again.
All right.
So we're gonna really milk it tonight.
- We're gonna milk it. Nice and slow, old-school, easy.
- Old-school.
Don't work his leg, man.
That's- Everybody does that.
- Work his neck. Work his neck.
- No, no. We working the neck.
- You're working the neck?
- I already got the leg.
- All right. You guys got the leg?
- Leg or neck. What you got?
- Maybe make your comeback right off there.
- Bang off the ropes...
then super kick and, uh, Ram Jam...
and we go have a beer, okay?
- That sounds great, man.
- You hang in there. You got a lot of ability.
- All right. All right.
- Okay?
- Right.
- Thank you.
Bless you.
