Buddy Rose

Do you remember the “Blow Away” diet starring “Playboy” Buddy Rose?  We do, and as funny as it was, this is not how we remember him.  In a profession with chiseled bodies, Buddy Rose stuck out like the proverbial sore thumb.  He was overweight, and later in his career was morbidly obese.  It has to be noted that regardless of his size, he was an excellent worker whose ring psychology was matched by few.  His last run in the WWE may have been as enhancement talent, but the “Playboy” once received a title shot against Bob Backlund at Madison Square Gardens, was the co-holder of the AWA Tag Titles when it still mattered, and was a huge draw in the Pacific Northwest.  Bottom line is that Buddy has a lot more credentials than those who only remember the Blow Away diet.
