Kathie Lee Gifford did not like pro wrestling. In her autobiography, Kathie Lee recounts two encounters with wrestlers on her show. The first involved the Bushwhackers, who she found disgusting. The second, more detailed incident involved Ravishing Rick Rude. Gifford expressed her general disdain for the “sleazy” nature of some wrestlers’ gimmicks and describes Rude’s “Rude Awakening” segment as a “pathetic spectacle” where he kisses women until they feign fainting. During his appearance on the show, Rude performed his “awakening” for a woman in the audience and then dropped his robe to reveal Lycra tights with Gifford’s face painted on his crotch and Philbin’s face on his buttocks. Gifford said she was horrified by this unscripted act, covering her face and fleeing the set. She considered it the worst breach of taste in the show’s history.
