I don't usually like tribute videos, but this one seems appropriate.

Been watching some of Vader's matches recently, so I thought I'd post this. Pretty good stuff here.

That German suplex on Misawa was #$%^ing sick!
Great footage from Vader's last great run in AJPW/Pro Wrestling NOAH. But where's the Vader bomb?!

On RAW tonight it was once again VADER TIME! He looked great squashing Heath Slater, too. So much fun.

That match will forever be the highlight of Heath Slater's career/

I went apeshit when his music hit.
Check that pop he got! The man is still loved by the crowd! A living wrestling legend!

I'm glad he got such a great reaction. A lot of times old guys come on and the crowd is so flipping dead. The "You still got it!" chants made me smile.

I remember seeing him in LI for an ICW show back in... 2004 or 05. So sad. Glad THIS will be one of the last images I have of him at the end of his career and not that anymore.
Man, people have be clamoring for Vince to bring him back for a bit. Now, I don't agree, but I would love to see him come back every few months, squash Heath Slater, and use it as a platform for a much deserved and long needed Hall of Fame induction and DVD.
Man, a must buy dvd would be a Vader dvd. I would hope WWE would try and get a few matches from Japan, too, such as his debut, that match with Hansen to show how much balls he has to wrestle a match after his eye pops out, another match with Inoki because they worked great together, and maybe one of his last runs in AJPW or NOAH for a match with either Kobashi or Misawa.
So much material out there us US fans never saw of his stellar work in Japan. WWE would have to represent that.
Hell, I would love for WWE to work a deal with NJPW and put out a dvd of his work in the US with all new commentary by guys like JR and Joey Styles.
