Storyline
Did you know
- Trivia"Ravishing Ronald" is modeled after wrestler Gorgeous George Wagner, who used many of the gimmicks Ronald does in this cartoon: a valet, perfume, dyed blonde hair and bobby pins. Unlike Ronald, however, Gorgeous George was actually a competent wrestler, and theatrical "cheating" was his trademark, not his opponents'.
- GoofsAt the end of the match when "The Crusher' offers Bugs to shake hands, he (and Bugs) shake with the left hand when it should be the right (not left) hand.

Featured review
"It's a living."
Bugs Bunny has been enjoying a cushy job as the mascot for flamboyant wrestler Ravishing Ronald. But when Ronald is demolished by bald brawler The Crusher, Bugs realizes his meal ticket is in trouble. So he slaps on a mask and enters the ring to challenge Crusher as the Masked Terror. Hilarious Chuck Jones short that pokes fun at pro wrestling. Wonderful animation, lively music, and terrific voicework. One of the things I like most about it is that Bugs doesn't have the upper hand the whole time. Very funny stuff with some great gags and lines ("It's about time for me to employ a little stragedy"). The character of Crusher is a hoot. Love that ending.
