I met Dan Severn in '06 and he was nothing but humble and such a nice guy! Nothing but a class act in a business that is nothing but cut-throat.
He is a cool cat
Where'd you meet him? I trained with him in 2006 in Detroit suburbs. Ground fighting for LE.....
Met him in battle creek he worked out there he was in a chinese restaurant
Haku and Blackman are very nice and humble as well which is a good thing considering these are very scary men.
I talked to Dan once, he gave me some motivational advice; he's the nicest guy I ever met.
ever?
I’ve talked to Dan Severn about a seminar out here in CA, nicest humble guy
This guy is a MAN's MAN!!!
Who the hell down voted this? This man was as pure an athlete as any true legend has been, at or above Kurt Angles pedistol. Regardless of professional sports profession. I personally thought he would have made an incredible boxer. But what he accomplished at such at late period in his life in comparison to all pro athletes is amazing. A true man's man and a gentleman.
He is probably better than Vince. It's a shame that WWE has really hurt his tenure almost a decade ago. And you're right, he did accomplish a lot more than I even realized. A strong fighter.
Lol how could u say above Kurt Angle he won a gold medal do you not realize how big an achievement that is
Thing about Angle though is he was the total package. He could not only wrestle multiple styles in the ring but was also amazing on the microphone. Could be intense for you, hilarious for you as a dork or badass. He even managed to make his dork character a badass at times. This Dan guy isn't in Angles league.
This is a weird comment... First of all, there are only 3 dislikes on the video, so... ??? lol, unless you're talking about a comment or something... Idk. The Angle comment is really random. Angle won a gold medal at the Olympics. Doesn't get any bigger than that when it comes to accomplishments in sports. However, if we're talking legit fighting, Severn is the better overall fighter, as he has extensive experience in MMA and different forms of martial arts. Kurt only has wrestling, which Severn also has. But again, really random thing to say. In MMA, Severn was never the best striker, he'd mostly take his opponents down and submit them. So the boxer comment... ??? Idk what you're talking about.
This dude's a true legend. I still remember when he fought Oleg Taktarov.
world class armature wrestler. He beat a 5 time world champion two times. His greco throws are awesome.
+Jason Voorhees Also combat Sambo practioner. The guy was amazing, if only he was a good shit talker he would've been main eventing. But his MMA fights got in the way. One of the only guys who would take a multiple fights in a month and win.
i like dan down to earth real nice guy out of the ring and a smart businessman.
Dan is an honest MAN. Met and had a brief interaction with him outside an event. Yes he was MMA and currently a "pro" wrestler but was a humble guy with himself and fans, mark and non. I have "chatted" with a lot of pros during the parking lot and outside of the arena. He was a real honest dude for the business and for himself. Respect for tthis man. Talked to a lot of talent over the years and he was a top notch dude. .thanks Dan!!
The beast kinda looks like Freddie Mercury
no necessarily beaver teeth, but he had huge pronounced top front teeth, and he was very conscious about them. You can see in the rare interviews he gave that he tried to hide that one characteristic about him often...still, Freddie was the fucken man!
+jdspreest 222830 No way.
he does
He's such a legend. He can look like other legends?
That's another level of outstanding
Either that or you can't be a legend without an awesome mustache
Adam-err Plumply- said that.
Severn was born in June 1958 according to wiki. thus in 1998 when he started with WWE he would have been 39. Shamrock started in 97, so when he was talking about when vince asked how old he was, he would have been 38, not 48 as he stated here.
what does Shamrock have to do with how old Severn was?
I'm glad you pointed this out, Severn just said it again in the recent interview with Hannibal and Don Frye. He claims he was 48 and I was immediately like "that doesn't add up right".
Hard to believe that he's almost 60 yrs old.
He’s so well spoken
So glad l finally found an interview featuring ex-Mayor Mike Haggar.
One of my favorite fighters of all time
He wasn't 48, he was in his late 30s during that time.
glad someone else noticed the shoddy math.
To hear how this guy kept his independence and also managed his career/ name trademarks separate from the WWF is an achievement in itself, knowing how Vince wants to own your name and gimmicks and have complete ownership of your time when working for him. Look at the story Vader and how he believes he was ultimately punished for not agreeing to be the Mastodon.
I would have loved too have saw Dan vs Kurt Angle in a real American/Roman Greco/Olympic rounds wrestling match at a wrestlmania.
That would have been an amazing match. Too bad the technicality and true finesse would have been wasted on the modern WWE and a lot of its fans.
Don Frye would have been the mma pioneer I would have brought in
Honestly, I can't stop thinking "What if Severn joined WCW?" They could've booked him and Goldberg and made a fuck ton of money. Sure, it wouldn't have a classic work-wise, but still could've been a good draw.
WCW would have put it on free TV with no build up. Who are we kidding?
He was 43 when he made his WWF debut in 1997.
lol, i also checked that, i dont think he had his age right in the story
Wiki sais he was born in June of 54 but other sources say June of 58 so assuming the latter is true, he was 39 in 1997 and 40 in 1998.
I love dan
Now that you mention it.... 👍
I think that Abdullah the Butcher was also a non-exclusive wrestler, back in the territories days.
Goldberg in 03 did it to he did WWE and new Japan for a while so Dan Severn isn't the only one ever to company exclusive.
He was born in June of 1958 so he was about 40 in 1998. Wiki sais 1954 but I think its really 1958.
Now, I'm a UFC fan, and I absolutely DISLIKE WWE ( what it has become today ). However, one thing I've heard repeatedly from so many MMA/WWE people that's common, is their praise for Vince McMahon. The guy must be doing something right I guess.
Legend
His voice does not match his badassery, which is why he didn't really speak in the WWE (as far as I can remember).
03:01 Severn wasn't 48 when he signed with WWF.
If he was born in 1958, and he signed with WWF in 1998, would that not make him 40?
If he was 36 at UFC 4 (in 1994), then he'd have been 40 in 1998.
If we take the month into account, he was 39.
Where is he getting 48 from?
I feel so bad for him you can tell he has CTE I have the same I’ve had 12 concussions an I’ll be dead within 5 or 10 years have the same studded an shakes
I think Dan "The Beast" Severn should beat the living hell out of Vince McMahon. Because right now, I'm smelling a grudge match between the two.
Macho man was his own agent as well
Who would have the balls to ask Dan to do an Elmer Fudd impression...that man should at least get his medical bills paid.
Severn was with the WWE in 1998, making him 40 years old. His memory was off by 8 years.
I feel so bad for him you can tell he has CTE I have the same I’ve had 12 concussions an I’ll be dead within 5 or 10 years have the same studder/talking problems an shakes. Etc
hey have you tried medical marijuana
Andre was non-exclusive, too.
Who would win Dan in his prime or Brock Lesnar
Dan. Without question. Rickson Gracie is on record saying that he could come out of retirement and submit Brock the next day. I'm inclined to believe him.
Dan definitely!
Damn 38
Burt Reynolds..??!!
Was Daina white taught by Vince McMahon?
exclusive to WWE? guess he never heard of a certain Giant named Andre
"Non-exclusive"
Kinda?
Rick Rude was not exclusive to WWE at the time he switched to WCW
He was. His contract was up, so he left to WCW without saying anything to WWF.
@@SylentEcho he was on an appearance by appearance agreement. Basically got paid after each show. He was also doing appearances for ECW at the time. If you were in the right market, you could have seen him on the syndicated ECW show, RAW and Nitro all on the same night, the day he signed with WCW.
@@NicholasChorba You're actually right. I forgot all about this.
great mustache dude....NOT! hahahaha
Celebrate all fantastic mustaches.
Dan Severns mustache would kick your ass.
***** it is a marvelous thing to behold
so full of himself

If you're not punch drunk, no psychosis or psychotic episodes. It may not be CTE, really the only way to diagnose it is through brain autopsy. Either way, good luck.
