    Stan Hansen is one of my all time favorites, but what a class act, much respect!

    Stan Hansen is the man. One of the biggest baddest pro wrestlers, not a sports entertainer, to ever lace up a pair of boots. He deserves a ton of respect.

    Hannibal’s interviews are the best, he asks relevant questions and interesting questions and he’s not trying to dig up salacious crap on anybody, plus the fact that he’s been in the ring & and loves the Business make him a great interviewer.

    @DCMcNeilJr 6 ปีที่แล้ว +4

    Stan looks absolutely fantastic. I bet he could still kick some tail in the ring. He is so articulate and just a joy to listen to. One of the best ever.

    Wow! I hadn't seen this guy in a long, long time. I grew up in Shreveport, Louisiana and watched Mid-South Wrestling. I remember this guy as Stan "The Lariat" Hansen. Always a heel, iirc.
    Good to see that someone made it thru that era and is still alive and well and healthy. He seems like a nice guy, too.

  • @radioactivekaraoke
    @radioactivekaraoke 7 ปีที่แล้ว +4

    One of my favorites. And I was able to meet him last year and chat a bit. I grew up in NY watching the old WWWF on Saturday Nights and Georgia Championship Wrestling on Saturday afternoon. I never knew about Stan and his great matches in Japan, only from what I read or saw in various wrestling magazines.
    Stan is an absolute Legend and it was a pleasure meeting him.

    Stan Hansen had the meanest angle, but in real life, never seems to have a bad word to say about anybody. Seems like a great guy.

  • @jamesdarwinsmithii7039
    @jamesdarwinsmithii7039 7 ปีที่แล้ว +7

    in wcw I enjoyed his early run when he did not care if he won he just punished his opponent. of course his Japan run was legendary and his AWA run was great! he is by far one of my favorite of alltime!

    He was a wrestler when I was a child, then most people thought wrestling was real not scripted Stan and others were great at making it believable.

  • @briangiannini7828
    @briangiannini7828 3 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    Love this guy. Always wondered as a kid why he was always in and out of territories- didn’t know about his Japan work at the time. He didn’t need steroids and crap to be scary and crazy.

  • @reallifelebowski4732
    @reallifelebowski4732 2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    I'll be honest as a kid Stan Hansen scared me a lot more that Bruiser Brody did. It's hard to believe just how articulate and laid back and easy going he actually is. One Hell of an acting job when he wrestler

  • @ironman2326
    @ironman2326 4 ปีที่แล้ว +4

    This guy used to halfway scare me as a kid because he was so wild. It's weird not seeing him with tobacco spit pouring out of his mouth and a cowbell.

    I never liked Stan, while he was wrestling, but I've really enjoyed watching these interview segments. Seems like a good, decent man.

    • @pooddescrewch8718
      @pooddescrewch8718 3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Stans matches were like the Von Erichs style , just full out blasting whomever is your foe and limited selling but still good because it looked legit ....but never had a classic match mentality ...his matches were real and ugly

    • @watchman1178
      @watchman1178 3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      The fact that you didn't like him was really the ultimate compliment to Stan, because his job was to get you not to like him (as I'm sure you know). He was a great wrestler and one of the better heels in the business.

  • @louislapoint6541
    @louislapoint6541 6 ปีที่แล้ว +5

    He was very over in WCW. The Saturday show match with Tommy Rich , Lex Luger and then fell out except a good wrestle war match with Vader.

      missy:( screaming and running away!!!!!!)" AHHHHH!!!!!!! HELP MEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!!!!!"

      Agreed....Stan is from a time when ego's were left at the door as it were....you went out and sold the business...NOT yourself and all for the betterment of the business as a whole so that everyone would benefit.....then ego's got in the way and before you knew it bedlam.

    Stan was a mean sob in character until he faced Abdullah in Atlanta. Got his face
    bashed in but then invited Stan over to his restaurant the next day. Once he faced Abdullah, he lost his character, was never as good as a hero wrestler. Come on
    next to the Butcher anyone seems like an angel.

  • @BudSchnelker
    @BudSchnelker 5 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    Why would Hansen want to go the cartoon route in WCW, when he was making more money, on a better schedule, and main eventing in All-Japan? It probably wouldn't have hurt his star power in Japan, but why even risk turning yourself into the butt of a joke?

    • @TheHannibalTV
      @TheHannibalTV  5 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      For money

    • @BudSchnelker
      @BudSchnelker 5 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      That's precisely why he wouldn't do it. He's making many thousands a week, first class travel and accommodation, and plenty of time off in Japan. What on earth could Dusty/Herd have dangled in front of him to make him want to opt for the Desperados gimmick? Hell, Herd made Flair walk that very same summer because he tried to halve Flair's contract.
