He's The Mountie! (Anonymous)
Good info on his early career which I didnt know much about. Tells story about him and his brother Ray winning tag team belts from Hart Foundation only to have it ignored. Honest about Dynamite Kid fight and to admit he was scared before,during and after the incident is admirable.(A Dynamite Kid shoot would be awesome) Good stories about doing the Mountie promos, his win over Hulk Hogan and training wrestlers now.

Great Shoot (Anonymous)
Jacques is a wealth of information into 80's-90's WWF. As others have said, his comments on Dynamite Kid are really interesting. Rougeau shines as you can see the passion that he has for the business. It's impossible to watch this shoot and not enjoy his stories.

the mountie 2 (ruiz_matthew)
In my first review, I spoke mostly regarding the fights Jacques had with Dynamite Kid and they were my favorite part of the interview, and the stories leading up to them were great as well as the aftermath of both! However, I must and should've given credit where it was due as Jacques had a great career. From starting in Stampede then going to Mexico to become the flyer that he was and starting the Rougeau tag team with brother Raymond. They had a great run in Montreal and eventually going to WWF and had a great run as babyfaces first feuding with the Dream Team and Hart Foundation and then turn heel with Jimmy Hart to feud with the Hart Foundation, Bushwhackers, Rockers, Young Stallions, and British Bulldogs. The story of Raymond leaving the team because they were supposed to be tag team champions and were overlooked by the WWF. However Jacques went singles and had a great run as the Mountie and his best feud was with Big Boss Man that includes the Jailhouse Match at SummerSlam. He had great feuds with Bret Hart and Rowdy Roddy Piper for the IC belt. He eventually formed the Quebecers tag team with Carl Oulette and they became Tag champions and had great angles with the Steiner Brothers, Men on a Mission, and Headshrinkers and why he never got along with Raven as their manager. He went to WCW with Oulette and formed the Amazing French Canadians tag team and they were nowhere near as successful as they were in WWF. Great Interview from another true Canadian wrestling legend who made his mark and is now a promoter. Best of luck.
