He went to war with guys like Billy Graham, Ivan Koloff, Gorilla Monsoon, Stan Hansen, Ernie Ladd, Larry Zybyszko, Roddy Piper and Randy Savage, so I can understand why he had that cauliflower ear.
bruno,, such a great man met him years ago told him my brother who is crippled , and admired him so much Bruno was heartfelt gave me a special autograph to give to him godbless
A Fantastic Interview I Knew Bruno Sammartino A Great Man And A REAL Star In Professional Wrestling NOTHING Like A BRUNO Rumble Before The Bruno Long POP Respect And Prayers Bruno Sammartino Thank You For Sharing We Interviewed Patrea Patrick About The Bruno Sammartino Documentary It Is Fantastic
I’d be curious on what Bruno would have to say regarding Kurt’s drug problem he had Bruno really did not like drug or ped use so I’ve always enjoyed hearing Bruno talk about that and just wonder what his thoughts would be about Kurt. Look how big a part it played in his strained relationship with his son after it was found out David was using steroids and other PEDs
+Porfirio Aguayo you get it more from holds and locks to the head , real wrestling. Look at a large majority of UFC fighters, especially the ones with wrestling background, the same thing.
There’s a Bruno Sammartino country? Damn he’s a god so people who come from the country Bruno Sammartino what are they called sammartinoians and do they speak Sammartinolish. Hey don’t get offended I’m just playing the way you worded the question I get what your asking but it looks like your stating that there is a country called Bruno Sammartino so I had to bust you up a little
Bruno sammartino , is sooo cool... but ? lets here from the Bruno fans and lou thesz fans.... I think , in a lou thesz vs Bruno sammartino... thesz would have won for real...
Bruno did wrestle Thesz early in his career and was instructed to let the old man go over. Bruno wasn’t happy about it but he obeyed. Later in that same time period he didn’t obey and McMahon stuck it to him. They taught him a lesson. Glad Bruno overcame it and returned.
@@bulldogbrower6732 have you been drinking... i love bruno , ..but..lou thesz was trained by the best..he would have destory bruno in a real wrestling... but bruno, like most brawlers, would have a punchers chance.. but love hearing from any fan.. old school wrestling is the best
diesel101raw Not even close. Kurt was a freestyle wrestler, meaning he excelled in holds meant to pin an opponent to a mat. Bruno was more of a shooter. Not quite the level of many of the hookers before him, but he knew holds meant to hurt an opponent more effectively. And he was much, much stronger than Kurt.
It's so weird to me how these guys can maintain a straight face when saying stuff like "he had a very good amateur wrestling career and that helped him translate to the professional wrestling ranks". That's always just baffled the shit outta me. It's like someone earning a degree in brain surgery so they can be a bouncer for the Jerry Springer show. Or spending years practicing, training and earning a black belt in Judo/BJJ so now they qualify to work Barnum&Bailey's Circus.
You clearly don't understand much about wrestling history. While it's always been a work, it was mat based for over a century. Wrestling nowadays looks like a circus.
Your level of critical thinking is that of a small child. You get paid to do what Kurt's done in WWE & TNA since 1999, hence it being a "profession". You don't get paid to wrestle for real, hence it being "amateur", which makes your analogies ridiculous.
He has a natural build he has a body like a strong man not someone who specifically works out every individual muscle he’s got the body of someone who just uses brute strength of his whole body to work out like strong men lifting and pulling cars and boulders and he’s all bulk not toned either way he would crush whoever he would get ahold of and being all natural is an impressive feat he’s one of those guys who will smile at you while completely crushing your hand during the handshake like an Amish or a farmer brute natural strength
Very good interview........No offense but it's rare to see older wrestlers giving coherent feedback nowadays! Kudos to Bruno......
Bruno is still a beast, he could probably throwdown even to this day
crassyfrake facts
Look at Bruno's cauliflower ear. That's a guy who's definitely been in some wars.
I think he surpassed from califlower to Chinese dumpling.
He went to war with guys like Billy Graham, Ivan Koloff, Gorilla Monsoon, Stan Hansen, Ernie Ladd, Larry Zybyszko, Roddy Piper and Randy Savage, so I can understand why he had that cauliflower ear.
Bruno is classy and humble as always. And you can sense the admiration by Kurt.
bruno,, such a great man met him years ago told him my brother who is crippled , and admired him so much Bruno was heartfelt gave me a special autograph to give to him godbless
RIP BRUNO SAMMARTINO ANOTHER AMAZING CHAMP MEETING GOD IN THE BEAUTIFUL SQUARED CIRCLE IN THE SKY
Kurt Angle and Bruno Sammartino. Two legends. *WHEN* Kurt Angle is inducted into the WWE Hall Of Fame it should be Bruno Sammartino that does it.
that is fitting because Bruno wants WWE to be as family friendly as possible
#RIP
Yeah about that
Two of the greatest of all time. Both men's men. Legit.......both of them.
Rest in Peace Mr. Sammartino. An absolute gentleman. So humble yet, an absolute idol and icon in his profession,
Bruno was long before my time, but I sure as hell look up to him too.
2 class acts right there, folks! Both men giving props to one another.

The 2 true wrestling GODs! And they both rep Pittsburgh!
If Kurt ever returns to the WWE just like every TRUE Kurt Angle fan i will chant YOU SUCK!
+broqui72jzb!tches lets hope not.
mukhtar ilyasu why
If a wrestler wants to look up to Bruno , he will not only be a better wrestler, but a better man . Two of the greats
Kurt looking short next to 5'10" Bruno.
I really like Bruno praising Kurt!
Curt looks 100 ties better than he has in recent years.. glad to see he has gotten off the drugs and back in the gym
The reaction on Kurt Angles face when Mr. Sammartino said if I wrestle Kurt Angle in Madison Square Garden!
WWWF Championship Wrestling
Was taped From The Arena
In Philadelphia PA and
All Star Wrestling was taped
From The Field House in
Hamburg PA !
I have never realised how good Kurt Angles ears look like for olympic gold medalist wrestler.
Wow just a legend
My two favorites
I would have loved to see these 2 team up and take on Bob Backlund&Pedro Morales
RIP Bruno
Awesome
Those are two classy humans
Awesome video.
Bruno: “If you don’t get into any hall of fame then there’s something wrong”
3 years later: “Welcome Home Kurt!”
cauliflower ear is Brunos condition.
R.I.P Bruno Sammartino
R.i.p Bruno
Pittsburgh
Rip bruno
I really hope Kurt will return to WWE this year.
My right ear heard this.
at first both my ears enjoyed this then suddenly my right ear got all the attention #Favoritism
Why you cencor the sentence?
I’d be curious on what Bruno would have to say regarding Kurt’s drug problem he had Bruno really did not like drug or ped use so I’ve always enjoyed hearing Bruno talk about that and just wonder what his thoughts would be about Kurt. Look how big a part it played in his strained relationship with his son after it was found out David was using steroids and other PEDs
Now Samartino looks like The Iron Sheik. The mustache is just a bit different.
My left ear felt left out.
Your mom felt left out
Kurt said he didn't watch wrestling.
What happened with Bruno's left ear?Did he have any accident or any condition?
That is what you call a "cauliflower ear". You get it by receiving much impact from wrestling matches (kicks, punches to the head, etc.).
+Porfirio Aguayo you get it more from holds and locks to the head , real wrestling. Look at a large majority of UFC fighters, especially the ones with wrestling background, the same thing.
bluwng Yes.
Yeah. CM Punk had a huge cauliflower-ear after Mickey Gall got through with him.
Cauliflower ear. A lot of wrestlers have that, I believe from headlocks.
What is the country of Bruno Sammartino?
+fabricio rotela Italy.
+Wrestling Historian Bernkastel pizzoferatto ,Abruzzi, italia
There’s a Bruno Sammartino country? Damn he’s a god so people who come from the country Bruno Sammartino what are they called sammartinoians and do they speak Sammartinolish.

Kurt angle has high blood presure
Sammartino is quite short.
Bruno sammartino , is sooo cool... but ? lets here from the Bruno fans and lou thesz fans.... I think , in a lou thesz vs Bruno sammartino... thesz would have won for real...
no.thesz didn't try and shooton Bruno when they wrestled twice. he knew better.
Bruno did wrestle Thesz early in his career and was instructed to let the old man go over. Bruno wasn’t happy about it but he obeyed. Later in that same time period he didn’t obey and McMahon stuck it to him. They taught him a lesson. Glad Bruno overcame it and returned.

KURT ANGEL WOULD KICK BRUNO ASS SO BAD IN MATCH LOL ????
and in a real fight out in the street Bruno in his prime would have kicked kurts ass from one block to the other.and there would be no lol.!!!.
Kids these days.. how ignorant.
MrMferg240 I'm sorry but Kurt would kill him in a real fight Prime for Prime
diesel101raw no need to be sorry, but you obviously have no idea how much of a legit bad ass Bruno was.
diesel101raw Not even close. Kurt was a freestyle wrestler, meaning he excelled in holds meant to pin an opponent to a mat. Bruno was more of a shooter. Not quite the level of many of the hookers before him, but he knew holds meant to hurt an opponent more effectively. And he was much, much stronger than Kurt.

I became a Golden Gloves Boxer in order to acquire a role in the annual school play???? hahaha that's the same logic as far as I can tell.
Its different. The training is different so its not the same.

Joseph Durnin
You are obviously 11 years old. Wrestling is fake and so is Santa kid. Now go eat a dirty diper
Kurt look's high and bloated.
I thought they were about to start making out.
Hulk Hogan > Bruno Sammartino
Bruno had an ugly body during his days of wrestling
Facts
stndrds79 he has a real body you idiot. He could snap you like a twig
how long , have you been gay......
He has a natural build he has a body like a strong man not someone who specifically works out every individual muscle he’s got the body of someone who just uses brute strength of his whole body to work out like strong men lifting and pulling cars and boulders and he’s all bulk not toned either way he would crush whoever he would get ahold of and being all natural is an impressive feat he’s one of those guys who will smile at you while completely crushing your hand during the handshake like an Amish or a farmer brute natural strength
No he didn’t! He looked great! Go back to your momma’s basement.
