Injuries ended Rick Rude’s career before his death

I’ve not been able to understand why Rude was never a WWF World Champion. The man with the chiselled body from Robbinsdale, MN had the body every woman wanted to be with and every man was jealous of. Just like Ricky Steamboat never played the role of heel, Rude never played the role of babyface.

He was solid in the ring, good on the microphone and was spot on with everything he sold. Rude did most of his early work in Memphis with Jerry Lawler’s promotion and moved between Florida, Georgia and the Carolinas before he jumped to the WWF. While he became a one-time Intercontinental Champion and co-founder of Degeneration X, he never held the company’s top strap.
