There's a clip on my channel of notorious sumo wrestler turned MMA fighter Koji Kitao trying to shoot on Haku in a pro-wrestling match in Japan. Kitao had reached the highest rank of Yokozuna in sumo and was also a black belt in Karate but he soon learnt why it is a bad idea to mess with Haku.
@@coreyhutton478 there always has to be one 'wrestlers are pussies' guy in the comment section. What exactly did you not get about that clip that made you think it was 'pussy'? The fact that a legit Martial artist tried to shoot on Meng and then got his ass handed to him or the fact that a 300+ pound man not only had the strength to stun an ex-Sumo champ into a corner but was also able to jump more than 5 feet in the air to dropkick and KO the guy? Also, in case you didn't notice, it isn't just Pro Wrestlers in the video here that are giving Haku/Meng/Tonga props, it's some of the baddest dudes in MMA history as well
@@pabloamador667 I have way too much of a self-preservation instinct to ever get either of them angry at me. Being pummeled to death is not the way I want to go out.
My personal favourite... “If I had a gun and was sitting inside a tank with one shell left and Meng is 300 yards away, he’s mine, right? Well, the first thing I’m going to do is jump out of the tank and shoot myself because I don’t want to wound that son of a bitch and have him pissed off at me." - Jake 'the Snake' Roberts
It's because they don't have to prove to anyone how tough they are. They know it. The guys that have to tell everyone that they can kick ass are usually just blowhards trying to impress people.
Exactly. Can you imagine the mentality of someone in a bar who would say something racist to Haku, call wrestling “fake,” & then challenge him to a fight (a rough synopsis of the 3 fights I’ve heard stories about)? They should never drink w/o having a living will and power of attorney on them; but if they were smart enough to do that, they wouldn’t even be mouthing off to Haku.😏
My favorite Haku story is one Sunny told. She and Candido we're having a conversation with Haku. Eric Bischoff and Greg Gagne interrupted it. Haku then told the two of them to apologize to Sunny and Candido for interrupting them, and they did. Now that's toughness.
Of all the guys here talking about Haku, when Don Frye, (a former UFC tournament winner who competed in MMA and was considered one of the best when there were barely any rules in MMA at the time) is calling Haku a scary human being, that’s as legit of a claim one can be of Haku being a bad ass
Fun Fact: Haku was once approached by police and they tried to mace him. They got his face, and right after, he took their spray and sprayed himself in the face, showing no effect at all.
Not so much related, but there's another story I love, about when it took I don't know how many officers to subdue a drunken Barbarian. However, once they locked him up, after a while, they told him that his wife was there to bail him out and he became instantly terrified! HAHAHAHAHAHAHA. They say his wife was the only person he was EVER afraid of.
@@segagenesis7708 Another non related story, but one of the best I’ve heard. It’s one of Pat Patterson’s stories, one time he was wrestling the High Chief, and after the match things got a bit rowdy, and if I remember correctly that there was some kind of an altercation between Peter, Lia, Peter’s wife and the police, and Pat told that it took like 10 cops just to handcuff Lia, let alone putting handcuffs on Peter😂and after they took them to jail about 200-300 Samoans showed up outside the police station because the King and Queen of Samoa were arrested, they ended up letting them go 😂 if I remember correctly, Pat told that story in one of the Legends of Wrestling shows, I think the episode was Badasses of Wrestling, recommend to check it out
@@segagenesis7708the only thing that scares a Polynesian is their upset wife! those ladies are simply dangerous and hit you harder without actually physically hitting you…
I've met and taken a picture with Don Frye. The one thing Don Frye still has is that staredown you saw in his fights. He turned it on and didn't say much to me... I was like... 'okay thank you for the picture.... Gonna go now...' 😂 Don Frye just had this stare that could intimate a wild animal. I can only imagine Haku's staredown.
Yeah, I was hoping to see either a Jericho quote about their Mexico City fight w/airport security, or Jake the Snake’s famous quote about if Haku is mad at you, and you’re in a tank with one shell and have a gun with one bullet, his advice would be to jump out of the tank and shoot yourself in the head.
According to Rick Steiner (Another legit tough guy who says no one was on Meng’s level) Haku got into a lot of fights due to racism, because often times people thought he was black and would try to fuck with him in bars. He would try to warn guys not to, but they wouldn’t listen.
Not mess with him because they thought he was black lol it’s because he was a foreigner and his English was broken… so probably got misunderstood during the drink ups at the bar! Most likely what happened… trust me every tongan has an uncle with broken English like haku… might not be as athletic as him with the roundhouse kicks but the attitude is the same to a T… and when they get drunk they start saying stuff that some people may misunderstand or Vice versa and that’s when the brawls begin
@@RighteousFiyah That's what would happen. Guys would see him in a bar, whether it be bar guys, military guys, whoever, and they would target Meng, thinking he was black. Rick, would sometimes hear them getting ready to and warn them that it's a really bad idea. Of course, supposedly tough guys in a bar wouldn't listen and three or four guys would be laid out within seconds.
Thanks for the compilation. When the industry's biggest names - Hulk Hogan, Steve Austin, The Rock, Ric Flair, and Goldberg - have no hesitation in naming Haku as the legit toughest wrestler ever then you don't need any further endorsement.
Sorry guys, but when Don fry says huku is a "scary guy" that's when u truly know its legitimate. Don fry was a scary guy, and for him to say that in this video makes it completely undeniable. (not that I was doubtful of the wrestlers... Haku, if you read this, I don't doubt it)
The fact that each of them gives basically the same description of haku as a person just shows just how much he made an impact on the memory of everyone around him
who wouldn't want to be called the toughest badass and the best, nicest person ever at the same time? Being respected and feared while also being loved by everyone, that's special!
knew a guy just like that at my old job he was 6'7 and 275 pounds and im 5'3 and 175 pounds so we were an odd duo but the dude was a talker having a chat about anything with anyone as soon as he could.....but once a guy probably coming from gangs was hired and hit a 55 yo lady on his first week and for no apparent reason......lets just say that he probably WONT remember because the concussion he got from my buddy must have been EPIC....fucker was out for at least an hour when we decided to throw him out still knocked out (we had everything he did on camera) and no clue how he got away or if someone dragged his sorry ass to some hospital
That was my dad. Served in the US Marine Corps. He did one campaign in Korea (shot), got wounded received a purple 💜. Did two more tours in Vietnam and got his Oak Leaf Cluster (white phosphorus explosion). He EAS after his 20 and came home. But I've never in my life seen a human being so fearless, focused, and determined. He said what he wantsd, when he wanted, but it was always the truth. And that's what's was said by everyone at his funeral. "If you didn't want to hear the truth, don't ask that man, because he wasn't afraid to tell you what you needed to hear. And he was no one to play with."
@@frankbonini9128 if I went to a bar with some friends and they look at Haku and say "You know what? Let's jump this guy" I'd respond "So..what time should I plan yall funeral?"
Back in the day, drunk wannabe tough guys would call out wrestlers regularly because they thought since wrestling is "fake" the wrestlers themselves must be fake tough guys too. There's a fella walking around with one eye right now becaue he tried that with Meng.
The fact that there is not ONE person who ever stated they could take Haku in a fight speaks volumes about how dangerous he was. Fighters, athletes, and wrestlers are proud men who have to be confident in there ability to beat someone’s ass, yet no one claimed they could beat up Haku. Let that sink in.
New Jack was talking trash sometime and said something about him not being tough if Jack stabbed him. And honestly...I'm not sure even that would stop Haku.
@@exploderwrestlingpodcast2721 New Jack didn't say Haku wasn't tough, his exact words were "He might kick my a$$, but he got an address and I got a knife and next morning I'll be waiting in the bushes"
The ending is great, with Haku's own words. "The dumbest rumour? ....Well... All of them. But they're all true. You know, I can't calm my stupidity." 😂 Imagine being stupid enough to pick a fight with this monster in his prime.
it was said that in the wrestling world Andre feared only 2 men, Haku and Harley Race. if you can make a behemoth like Andre afraid of you you're the toughest person alive
I remember hearing the stories when bookers who had difficult talent who refused to do what was asked be threatened by having Haku come and speak to them about why they aren’t willing to do what’s asked and they would fall into line instantly and literally beg the Booker not to tell Haku what was happening. When just the mention of Haku talking to you terrifies you that much says absolutely everything.
That was Kevin sullivan asking the WCW tag champions ..the Samoans I do believe. They were like, no one can beat us ,we ain't laying down for no one. Then sullivan said, maybe uncle meng would love to hear this and they were like please God no. You can pin us both,just don't tell.meng..lol
They say that there were only 2 men that Andre the Giant was legit afraid of; Harley Race and Haku. For Andre to be afraid of you means you're a badass mother.
@@brianrobison5871the story goes that André said something that sounded racist, Bad News took offense to that, order the tour bus to be stopped, and challenged Andre to a fight for the remark, Andre knew Allen as being very serious, and he quickly apologized, whether it was fear or he knew he spoke out of turn is debatable.
Haku should crash a wwe hall of fame ceremony and declare to the audience that he is in the hall of fame now and the demand that Vince himself come out to induct him.
Now that you mention it.... yeah, I've never seen a single clip of Haku talking about how he's the baddest guy in the locker room, or even that he could beat (insert name here) in a real fight. It's all other wrestlers heaping honor and fear upon his name.
Keep in mind people. Perry Saturn is a former Army Ranger. This man fought off two men trying to rape a women in 2004, got shot twice in the neck and shoulder with a .25 caliber. And said it felt like he just got punched. And even HE says in a last Man standing situation, "Haku would kill 'us' !" Now put THAT into perspective.
I love how this is ten straight minutes of people describing Haku as the scariest person imaginable, but also really nice, and the last 38 second is just him being the most nice humble guy imaginable!
During the height of his power in the wrestling business, Eric Bischoff once interrupted Meng and his friends talking. Meng yelled at Bischoff to apologize for being rude AND HE DID.
I heard that he didn't actually yell. He simply said something to the effect of "Hey, I'm talking to my friends right now. Apologise" and Bischoff did and came back later.
Two things to take away from this: 1) Haku is one of the toughest men in professional wrestling. (That goes without saying.) and 2) at the same time he’s also one of the nicest and friendliest guys ever.
Rubbish. Andre was twice there size and strength. He was being polite in interviews. He was never really scared! Andre if he hit you full force with his MASSIVE shovel hands would absolutely destroy you. Your talking about a man with hands bigger than Hakus head! With a body so large, no amount of punches would hurt his body. Unless you kicked him in his groin or shot him with a shot gun, there is no other way you are putting Andre down if he does not want to go down. People need to realise being tough is not the same as being a great fighter. If Andre lost his temper for real he would destroy Haku with 1 giant slap.
There's a story about Vader and Mr. Wonderful having a scuffle. Their versions vary, but one thing that was consistent, when Haku(Meng in WCW) told them to stop, they stopped.
@@foreverunsaved6661 by Sags alone. Knobbs was passed out on the bed due to alcohol or drugs. Listen to an eye witness account by Colonel Parker. Don't listen to Ken Shamrock's or the Nasties' versions. Also Col Parker saved Shamrock's life because Sags was about to throw him out of the hotel window.
The main reason you know the business is a work is because if it wasn't, Meng and Barbarian would just trade the world title back and forth until they chose to retire.
Perry Saturn was a fucking Army Ranger and even he said Meng would lay waste to Fit Finlay, Rick Steiner, Scott Norton, Jim Duggan and himself, AND that there's nothing they would be able to do about it. Fuck scary, that's just mortifying.
I have met many lovely Tongans in my life . They are the kindest loveliest people you will ever meet . But if you wrong them watch the hell out indeed . Most of the rugby players here in NZ have Tongan heritage . Tough sons of a gun indeed but with hearts of polynesian gold indeed
I know that most of these guys are tough guys but to hear Don Frye talk about how scary Haku was mean something cuz Don Frye the UFC was a bad man wellmore in Pride
Could imagine if some trainer got a hold of Haku when he was younger and went into the UFC? (obvious time issues not withstanding) Jesus Christ. Hed be heavyweight champion for decades.
Love these stories. And love humans like this… someone who can destroy you with his pinkie, so he’s very secure in himself, since he has no fear. So… just a sweet, kind dude. And seeing them interview him here at the end (albeit abbreviated and chopped off) proves it. A humble, self-deprecating individual. I always loved watching him… whether he was a heel or a face. Now I’ll appreciate him even more.
I knew Haku was tough when I found out Andre The Giant was scared of him. If you can make the 8th wonder of the world fear you, you are someone not to make angry.
Haku/Meng one of the nicest guys around but when it’s time to get down to business he was like a machine if I was in a bar fight I definitely want him on my side 👍
When wrestlers went out between shows, they were known to ask the island boys to watch their backs, knowing that no one would mess with guys like Haku or the Wild Samoans.

He would come into a bar in Florida back in the day. Nice as hell. Good dude who loves laughing.
Bro nicest toko ever! Just be respectful and you would never have a problem🤷🏽♂️
Haku should crash a wwe hall of fame ceremony and declare to the audience that he is in the hall of fame now and the demand that Vince himself come out to induct him.
He should definitely get in the H.O.F. no question
What a legend. When the greats Immediately submit to you. GodMode.
8:50 When Don Frye call somebody scary, you know they are a legit badass.
Kevin Nash said it best - “Where do you hurt him?” you take one look at him and think exactly the same.
If you're a legit badass you don't have to tell people; others will verify it for you.
Now that you mention it.... yeah, I've never seen a single clip of Haku talking about how he's the baddest guy in the locker room, or even that he could beat (insert name here) in a real fight. It's all other wrestlers heaping honor and fear upon his name.
@@FEARSWTOR yep lol
@@thadanzwiggler The more I think about it, Haku is the John Wick of professional wrestling
Keep in mind people. Perry Saturn is a former Army Ranger. This man fought off two men trying to rape a women in 2004, got shot twice in the neck and shoulder with a .25 caliber. And said it felt like he just got punched.
And even HE says in a last Man standing situation, "Haku would kill 'us' !"
Now put THAT into perspective.
Well stated. And he said without hesitation that Haku could kill all of them in the blink of an eye and there would nothing anyone could do about it.
I love how this is ten straight minutes of people describing Haku as the scariest person imaginable, but also really nice, and the last 38 second is just him being the most nice humble guy imaginable!
Bad News Brown, Stu Hart, Jerry Brisco, and Taz have also called Haku the toughest wrestler of all time. Check out those clips as well on my channel.
@@chaoticdays thats saying something cause bad news brown was no push over either
That’s the dream
During the height of his power in the wrestling business, Eric Bischoff once interrupted Meng and his friends talking. Meng yelled at Bischoff to apologize for being rude AND HE DID.
And don't forget that the reason he was employed by wcw for so long was because they were scared to fire him.
I heard that he didn't actually yell. He simply said something to the effect of "Hey, I'm talking to my friends right now. Apologise" and Bischoff did and came back later.
Haku is so tough, he could stare down a Silverback
I totally would watch him vs a gorilla lol
nah
Your arch enemy: I have a army.
You: I have a Haku.
Your arch enemy and their army: We surrender!!!!!!!
If Don Frye calls a man scary....
This is amazing. I've never seen 25 wrestlers agree on anything.
If DON FRYE says you’re a bad man best believe that’s not a guy you want to deal with lbs
Notice that NOONE even Embellished how tough Haku is, and no hesitation in mentioning his name!
When Don Frye says someone is a scary person that carry’s some weight
I never get fed up of hearing haku/meng stories
Me too bro 👌🏽
King Haku for WWE Hall of Fame 2024
Two things to take away from this:
1) Haku is one of the toughest men in professional wrestling. (That goes without saying.)
and 2) at the same time he’s also one of the nicest and friendliest guys ever.
3.) Barbarian and Haku should have been tag team
@@asawhitemanidjustliketosay and they were in WCW lol
the toughest guys are always the nicest they don't need to flaunt their strength
@@casadycawlfield1019 for like a month
@@asawhitemanidjustliketosay no meng and barbarian were in wcw for like 2.5 years o.o
Let me put to everyone like this when Andre The Giant was afraid of Meng, that pretty much tells everyone what a tough person Meng is.
Haku was one of two wrestlers Andre was scared of. The other was Harley Race.
Rubbish.
Andre was twice there size and strength.
He was being polite in interviews.
He was never really scared!
Andre if he hit you full force with his MASSIVE shovel hands would absolutely destroy you.
Your talking about a man with hands bigger than Hakus head!
With a body so large, no amount of punches would hurt his body.
Unless you kicked him in his groin or shot him with a shot gun, there is no other way you are putting Andre down if he does not want to go down.
People need to realise being tough is not the same as being a great fighter.
If Andre lost his temper for real he would destroy Haku with 1 giant slap.
Loved Meng and Barbarian. I got the sense even as a kid that they were the toughest guys in real life.
I could give a shit what Ric Flair and other pro wrestlers say, when Don Frye and Tank Abbott are saying you're scary, you're fucking scary.
0:56 the only truthful thing to come from the Hulksters mouth in decade's
There's a story about Vader and Mr. Wonderful having a scuffle. Their versions vary, but one thing that was consistent, when Haku(Meng in WCW) told them to stop, they stopped.
Don Frye saying Haku is scary is the scariest thing I've ever heard.
@Top Lobster YES!!! Bas is the man!!! I think I'd pick those two and Haku as my crew if I needed a stable of fighters
@Top Lobster Not Bas Rutten. Ken Shamrock beat Bas, and Shamrock was beaten within an inch of his life by Jerry Sags
@@bodybuilder748 By Jerry Sags and Knobs - 2 on1
@@foreverunsaved6661 by Sags alone. Knobbs was passed out on the bed due to alcohol or drugs. Listen to an eye witness account by Colonel Parker. Don't listen to Ken Shamrock's or the Nasties' versions. Also Col Parker saved Shamrock's life because Sags was about to throw him out of the hotel window.
@@bodybuilder748 Sags also hit him, from behind, with a rotary phone. Shamrock was instantly KOed by it without even knowing what happened.
That’s the utmost respect. But in the same breath they say that he was the NICEST guy in the world
The main reason you know the business is a work is because if it wasn't, Meng and Barbarian would just trade the world title back and forth until they chose to retire.
Perry Saturn was a fucking Army Ranger and even he said Meng would lay waste to Fit Finlay, Rick Steiner, Scott Norton, Jim Duggan and himself, AND that there's nothing they would be able to do about it. Fuck scary, that's just mortifying.
he said it's better to go to hell than to mess with that man
I'm just trying to find one bad comment about Haku... everybody loved this man
When Don Frye, one of the toughest SOB's going, tells you someone is scary, you goddamn listen.
I have met many lovely Tongans in my life . They are the kindest loveliest people you will ever meet . But if you wrong them watch the hell out indeed . Most of the rugby players here in NZ have Tongan heritage . Tough sons of a gun indeed but with hearts of polynesian gold indeed
Jonah Lomu rip.
Don Frye saying Haku is so tough is crazy.
When Don Frye calls you scary. 🤘
If Don Frye thinks you are scary, you are frightening.
All the jokes and memes about what Chuck Norris can do is what Haku can do before even opening his eyes in the morning from sleep.
I know that most of these guys are tough guys but to hear Don Frye talk about how scary Haku was mean something cuz Don Frye the UFC was a bad man wellmore in Pride
Could imagine if some trainer got a hold of Haku when he was younger and went into the UFC? (obvious time issues not withstanding) Jesus Christ. Hed be heavyweight champion for decades.
Awesome seeing him at the end looking like the nicest guy in the world after 10 mins of everyone calling him the biggest badass
Don Frye validation. Nuff said
Wow, Hogan told the truth.
Its a funny irony that everyone says Haku was the one person you didnt wanna piss off but he was also the nicest person in real life...
Biggest balls award goes to the skinny guy who asked Haku himself.
He is a true legend. I used to get scared as a kid when he came on WCW.
Love these stories. And love humans like this… someone who can destroy you with his pinkie, so he’s very secure in himself, since he has no fear. So… just a sweet, kind dude. And seeing them interview him here at the end (albeit abbreviated and chopped off) proves it. A humble, self-deprecating individual. I always loved watching him… whether he was a heel or a face. Now I’ll appreciate him even more.
Saturn was so genuine in his response that you know it's true
Real tough guys don't talk about how tough they are, many other people talk about how tough that person is. That's Haku.
The dealership he manages must be the ONLY business where NO ONE wants to "talk to the manager"
Holy shit....if Don Frye calls you scary.....Jesus is Tonga even human lol
If Don Frye thinks you are tough……you are tough !!
I knew Haku was tough when I found out Andre The Giant was scared of him. If you can make the 8th wonder of the world fear you, you are someone not to make angry.
Yeah.
That's crazy.
THE Nicest Guy Who's Also THE Baddest Man Alive!
Haku/Meng one of the nicest guys around but when it’s time to get down to business he was like a machine if I was in a bar fight I definitely want him on my side 👍
I wish SOMEONE had security cameras in their bars back then. A legit Haku bar fight video could sell for some big money!
When wrestlers went out between shows, they were known to ask the island boys to watch their backs, knowing that no one would mess with guys like Haku or the Wild Samoans.
Who wouldn’t? I’ll buy him drinks every night 🤭👍
Rumor has it that Chuck Norris fears Haku.
Considering how outlandish some of the stories sound, "All true" just about says it all.
VERY INTERESTING. Is he in the Hall of Fame yet? I think he deserves it.
Its all OK until the Predator calls him frightening
"They are all strange rumors......but all of them true" lol
Bro, imagine how hilarious and epic a biopic movie of Meng would be lol.
People getting noses bit off and eyes gouged out and eaten
Who could play him
So awesome to hear how much respect they have for him
