Hands of Stone Ronnie Garvin...1 of my favorites back in the day..
Ronnie Garvin is one tough SOB....Soft spoken, but he'll defend himself by all means......Excellent interviews Hannibal...Keep up the good job!!
Usually the toughest guys
@@hugh2hoob668True
Never cared for his in-ring work, but when I met back in 2008, he was such a great guy to talk to. Spoke to him for 15 minutes about the most random things.
+pepperj you too?
Ronnie was one my favorites and Butch Reed , Greg Valentine quite tough guys that didn’t have a Ego.
Greg was like a steel wall for real he’d rattle ur teeth in a heartbeat
Always liked rugged Ronnie
“Randy would sucker punch guys.” Hits Randy from behind with a metal object! 😂 I guess that’s getting the best of him in a fight.
Lol ya that's what I was thinking.
If he was fighting instead of doing business as promised, he deserved it. And Garvin is just one of several respected pros with stories about Savage. The only stories people tell about Garvin involve him being stiff but cooperative -- so long as you didn't cross him.
Savage was up to no good instead of doing his job.
I liked savage he was very entertaining but a piece of crap human being
I been watching Mr. Garvin since I was a kid. Just an awesome wrestler man. One tough Son Of Gun my friend.
Let me tell something 😮
He sure was. Ronnie was bad ass and doesn't get the respect he deserves
Ronnie was always a favorite of mine. Back in the day, he was double tough. Those were the days.
Wish my hair held up on me like Ronnie's has! Lol
He’s got a good head of hair...!🤔👍
They say that Ronnie didn't lose his hair unless it had his permission
Ha ha! True.
He is Native American the reason for his good hair. I also have good hair. .. 🤣
@@gearheadmoff1232 Is he also a drunk then too?🤔
i caught one of his towels when i was a kid, was a great souvenir that i had forever
Nice to see Rugged Ronnie Garvin alive and well .He looks like he's doing well after not hearing from him in years .Thanks Hannibal for the post very much apriciate the job your doing with this great legends .Joe Munoz
It's crazy to think that Ronnie Garvin was 71 years old when this video went up.
He still looks like he was carved out of an oak tree.
Got to meet Ronnie Garvin several time in East TN. Man he was good. Very nice guy to. I was just a small kid then, but he took to the time to talk with me and my bother several times. This was when he as spending time in the Johnson City and Kingsport area of TN. Really got me into loving wresting. He is the real deal to.
Garvin's a tough SOB brother! Even gets real and has your back when it's supposed to be a work!
Great to hear these interviews from the old guard. Gives you a glimpse of their life. Pretty cool!
It’s amazing how many people won all these shoot fights. I don’t think I’ve ever heard any of these guys say they lost...
The best is that hot doggin grandstandin showboatin primadonna Hogan coming out so much after Macho Man passed on saying they were friends they buried the hatchet and Hogan always comes out with how much he loved and misses Macho but anybody with a set of eyes or ears knows how Macho really felt about that punk bitch Hogan
@@glennmcbain2162 well, considering Macho Man’s brother said they made up as well, kinda blows your narrative out of the water.
You probably wont 🤣
@@glennmcbain2162 stop being negative. Ppl dont know shit. Your goofy ass only know 1 side of a story. Ppl love negativity
Marty Jannetty said Scott Hall got the best of him. Only one I've ever heard admit it.
Thanks so much for this Hannibal! There are not to many interviews with RG out there. I am looking forward to future posts.
Ronnie Garvin "The One Man Gang", old school tough guy from the 70s. southeastern championship wrestling
Great to see/hear from Ronnie Garvin. I used to love his JCP squash matches under one minute. Like when he beat Ron Rossi in seconds.
Also, there is a match on TH-cam highly cited by Stone Cold on his podcast that I remember watching when it first aired 30 years ago: Garvin/Dusty vs. Flair/Anderson. That crowd was insane!!
These videos bring back so many memories. Awesome.
Much appreciated for the content you provide Hannibal
What?? So, Garvin says Savage was a sucker puncher but then says HE suckered Savage with a rope post??? And THAT was his “FIGHT” with Randy Savage?? Gotta love Garvin but this story is contradictory to his initial statement.
Randy Savage was on the floor brawling with Tiger Conway when Ronnie nailed him. The fight was already on.
@@MortonT1958 Yeah. Garvin said that already. Then he said he struck Randy with a rope post while randy was fighting Tiger. That's a sucker move right there. What's your point? God, stoned people suck.....
Hannibal you are always stepping up your shoot game, keeps getting better!
It's great you are getting awesome shoots with these Legends before they are gone.
How’s that winning a fight against macho when he’s smashed him in the head from behind
Adrian Street. The English guy was Adrian Street.
I think the british shooter he is talking about was Adrian Street
Bill dundee
@@kingsports1113 he's australian
There was a mid card wrestler they called Johnny Eagle back in Mid Atlantic back then (about 1976). He was actually a pretty decent wrestler. He may be talking about him. The guy had an eagle tattoo on his chest.
@@ralphmccathern8112I remember him wrestling in the Portland territory as well
So basically Ronnie attacked Randy from behind while he was fighting tiger..
Quite ironic for the king of the sucker punch to be hit with one!
🤣🤣Ronnie speaks as a very jealous
That's the gist of it
And talks about it like he won lol what a tard
@@steveschmidt4063 You idiots use words that are never applicable. Dude's just telling a story fool.
I always loved "The Man With The Hands Of Stone." I used to love the Garvin Stomp on Georgia Championship Wrestling. Garvin stomped a patsy's arms, legs...everything! 🤣🤣🤣
I need someone like Mr. Garvin on my team man. He is a ride or die man.👍👍👍👍
Ronnie is a standup guy. I have a friend that worked with him in ICW and in Montreal. Great stories about him, very hard to wrestle but just an old school tough guy.
Ronnie Garvin deserves to be in the WWE Hall of Fame.
Screw the WWE. He should be in the Pro Wrestling Hall of Fame.
There's an interview from some local public access channel with Randy from 1982 that's really entertaining. They were taking phone calls and one of the callers mentioned Ronnie and Randy said Ronnie should get a job washing dishes somewhere cause he doesn't have what it takes to be a wrestler lol Now I know some of the backstory between those two.
"The Hands of Stone"... boy I haven't seen or heard from him in for ever!
cool interview
Hands of stone Ron Garvin one of my favorite wrestlers along with magnum ta
Saw Ronnie win the Belt in Joe Louis Arena in Detroit.
Ronnie was my favorite Wrestler of all time. He was absolutely rugged.
He was once billed as the man with hands of stone
and the jaw of glass
Brent one of the all time greats Ronnie Garvin love that guy as a wrestler
Ron Garvin one of the toughest wrestler ever with the real hands of stone
confirms that randy would rather fight during a match instead of in the locker room. dude was batshit crazy. still awesome tho :D
no it doesn't
Randy was known for shooting on people during matches. Bad news brown talks about how Randy would punch him and kick him hard. Bad news almost killed him he said
I loved this guy's body of work
One of my all time favorites
Very Very Underrated!!!!
Love the fact that Randy Orton keeps the Garvin stomp alive.
True Legend!!!
Ronnie is one of the best interviews I've seen
I met Ronnie a few years ago. What a great guy
osw review's all time favourite wrestler.
Rubbish Ronnie Garvin, the boy who wasn't a boy.
@@asm42 Rubbish Ronnie Garbage is the name.
I like this hannibal channel,,,very informative
the strong silent type gary cooper
Ronnie Garvin: The Barney Rubble Of Wrestling
And where's his tag team partner Fred "Twinkle Toes" Flintstone?
Jeezus. This guy reminds me of my pops.
Someone told me Garvin died a long time ago,i haven't seen or heard anything out of him for decades .I am glad to see he is alive he was one of my favorite guys back in the day.
a lot of them have died from drug use
He looks damn good -- if this video was recorded in 2016, he's past 70 here.
I think his brother Jimmy Garvin died
@@darnelldaughtrey3646 Jimmy is his stepson.
@@wrestlingbb61 yeah and all these years i thought they were brothers
Him & Gorgeous Jimmy Garvin like night & day
I concur with Jonathan. I'd happily pay to stream these Hannibal. I'm not complaining, but how come you post them for free?
We may stream certain footage or do a PPV Supercard at some point but at this time we are keeping our content free.
Much appreciated. Some of the best stuff anywhere.
Those ads give Hannibal money also
Not free
The hands of stone 🙌👏👌
95% sure "the English guy" he's trying to remember is Adrian Street. There was some fight between him and Savage at some point.
I was thinking Steven Regal but I think you're right.
Hands of stone 💪🏾💪🏾💪🏾
Billy Robinson?LOL Even the Macho Man wasn't THAT crazy!
is it me or is Ronnie's eyes really red ?
it's you
Yes Sir his eyes are red
It's you
Rat
Ron garvin was one of the best. If you want a workout in the ring. Ron garvin would be the great challenge. Great looking wrestling boots red green and yellow boots.
My High Top hero.
Ronnie Garvin is great! Wish he'd been the world champ
He was in the Nwa once, when he beated Flair.
Fellow Montrealer
R.i.p macho man randy savage poffo
Seems like a cool guy.
Savage probably sucker-punched Adrian Street; he was a former amateur champ and was known as a shooter. I think they had a program in that territory.
Hooker
there seems to be a lot of people that don't like hearing Macho man got his ass beat......
I never did buy that he was so tough .
strange.....when i posted this comment the video had alot more dislikes....also gras1hoppa 's comment seems to be missing....or is that just me tripping?
lord Alfred hayes beat up the macho man
got the vlad tv thing going
When i was a kid ronnie garvin came to claiborne county high school here in Tn. . A guy jumped in the ring and ronnie beat the hell out of him. It wasn't a work because i knew the old guy til he died.
I never understood why they made Barney Rubble the world champion.
Because he was willing to drop it back to Flair starrcade
I'm sure it made sense at the time
Nobody else really wanted it.
Always liked ronnie tough competitor
Hands of stone is a really great name .
J C definitely a favorite of mine , along with marvelous Marvin Hagler 🥊
I think Roberto Duran had it first.
Of course he's going to claim he came out on top 😂
@J C HAHAHAHA!!! Because it's real hahahahahaha
everyone says randy was paranoid, kinda sounds like me i tend to think people are plotting against me, but its from experience after being blind sided so much by people
I guess if you grow up among pro wrestling promoters, it's a pretty safe assumption.
I still ask the question of all these old guys. Where is the money? Each and everyone is broke! I don't understand it. They all talk about how they made money but don't have any
Yeah all the money they made once you living on the road how is this hard to figure out
@@chrischar9428 Yep. It's not like they're home every night putting there money away. 🙄
Life's expensive on the road. And these guys weren't too bright,few put away or invested for their future. Lived for the moment.
hands of stone
THE HANNIBAL TV- do you have to pay these guys for these interviews. on another note try and interview the broadcaster paul mooney. it would be interested to hear what a non wrestler thought about the golden age of wrestling.
Hands of jizz
Fists of stone!!!!
Ronnie still tries to protect the business. This “fight” was part of the match
Protect the business? Have you not seen the "Plan B" tape from 1979 that he's on with some other wrestlers admitting that wrestling isn't real and that it's all staged? He even called himself an actor.
Does he looked more tanned than he when he wrestled?
He should have a MUCH longer run with the NWA title. The fact that he only served the purpose of transitioning between Flair's
title runs is one of the biggest travesties in wrestling history.
Ross Cicero I liked him too but I don't think he was putting asses in seats.
Yeah it's not really transition to drop it back to the guy you got it from
@@chrischar9428 I suppose you’re right. I should have said “place holder”
Everybody always says Randy was paranoid. Don't forget his father lost his company, at a time when loyalty was held both those companies together. Stuff like that will lay on someone for the rest of their lives, and then there was also the coke. Hey don't be judging it was the 80s baby, if you didn't have a little booger sugar, you might as well just stay in the car, cuz let's face it candy it's dandy.
It was fun till it wasnt,once I lost a house coke wasn't the novelty it once was.
Noway he beat up randy
Hawk also beat up Randy and stuck his head in a toilet after according to numerous reports.
First off, hitting macho with a steel block while he was already down doesn't constitute ' beating' him.
There are multiple accounts of what happened between savage and hawk, one thing that is consistent is that during their first encounter hawk suckered randy and randy went out to work his match. Then in the second encounter Macho handed hawk his ass!
LONG LIVE THE MACHO KING!!!
Yes he beat him up it's legit
@@Indomitable76 WTF are you talking about? Randy sucker punched Hawk and then Hawk stuffed him in a toilet. Hawks a known tough guy. Randy was not.
Ronnie was tight and like others to sell for him but he was to hard headed to give and take and sell a little back. He seemed really stiff and hard headed to try to work with. Some wrestlers like short guys like ronnie had that little man syndrone trying to prove themselves when they don't need to .
My dad told me about this guy before he said they used to call him hands of pillows back then.
Everybody always talking about they won the fight 🤣 well I dont expect nobody to admit when they lost 🤣
garvin was a mid card jobber in the 80s wwf
Midcard jobber okay that makes absolutely no sense jackass
"Mid card jobber" who could of beat any of the stars up in a real fight.🤛🤛
@@chrischar9428 he and his gay brother had no fans except you
@@cycl0nnus yeah that wasnt his brother window licker
This dude sounds like he's muffling. can't understand a word he is saying am I alone here dude!!! Gosh!!!!
Got the best of him with a metal weapon smh thats not tough in my book
even if some people got the better of randy, shows he wasn't scared of a real fight!
Randy was an athlete & a man's man. He may not get mentioned w/ Harley or Haku but Randy was no push over. I bet he could have beat Hogan's ass.
@@richardmorris6365Hogan wasn’t a fighter and he backed off a real fight with Randy who wanted it in the ring on live television.
One of the biggest liars in the business
He's French?
Randy was not the tough guy people think he is
+Mark Mullins Almost all of Randy's "fights " were him sucker punching people then hauling ass . The guy was wired all of the time but not that brave
Including Hawk.
@thewelshviper Godfather was pretty well known as a bad MFer.
Never realized Garvin was native indian
He is French Canadian.
THIS JOBBER AND HIS GAY BROTHER NEVER MADE IT IN THE BUSINESS
who the hell is this guy? never heard of him
