Stu was beast mode in his youth. WWII kept him from Olympic competition. Truly a man’s man.
What an entertaining story teller. So nice to see a legend who's mind isn't mush.
It's great hearing Stu Hart stories there should be a documentary or a movie on Stu Hart and the Hart family.
Surviving The Dungeon from about 15 years ago. If I can find it again online I'll post the link here. I know there's dvd extras and outtakes online but I'm not sure about the full documentary anymore.
@@misterslats I would love to watch or read more about the Hart family
Bret's book is a great resource
Amazing hearing a southern guy talking about life in the great white north.
One of the best and favorite guys of mine to listen to. Great details. Awesome Stu Hart impression.
Puerto Rican uppercut is friggin hilarious
He seems like a nice guy. Had an action figure of him when I was a kid and people thought it was Elvis. LOL
Same. Loved his action figure
Still have mine. It’s the only figure I somehow kept
In 1983 Al Tomko had run All-Star into the ground and didn't have the stick to keep Stu out of British Columbia so Stu got Stampede Wrestling on BC TV, partnered with Brian Adams's manager, and ran some of his biggest shows of all time in British Columbia. 7000 people paid gate for Bruce Hart vs. Tiger Williams at the PNE arena. 9000+ for a supershow with Dyno, News, Andre, Dr. D, etc. They were cleaning up in Vancouver, Victoria, and Nanaimo right up until the WWF told Stu "you can either let us buy you out or we'll just come in and take the territory within a years time". Stu was conflicted cuz adding BC to his loop had been a huge success but ultimately he saw the writing on the wall and as one of only four territories that were offered buyouts from the WWF he decided he'd better take it instead of getting bulldozed out later for nothing. Then Vince swerved Stu anyway and didn't make his first $100,000 yearly payment knowing Stu couldn't sue as he did the deal on a handshake. Vince has been screwing Harts for years.
As a kid, he was the heel I despised. Everything he did worked. He was 100% on point, every time.
I got to meet Honky Tonk Man a few years back at a show in Bland Virginia. Great guy
I was at the WWF in Calgary. Honky Tonks match and heat from the crowd was simply amazing
Always go to honky tonk man to here stories in the mean time and in between time THIS is another edition of stampede wrestling
God Bless Stu Hart. All these young tough guys scared as hell of him even though he was near 70 yrs old !!!. what a BADASS he was.
Thank you! Great interview(s)!
This man should have his own RUclips channel!
Nova Scotia shout out! I remember watching Leo Burke wrestle in cape Breton... he's a Stampede guy
+Johnny Bond I'm a Caper,too.
the good ol Atlantic Grand Prix Wrestling days
Johnny Bond I watched it manys a Saturday afternoon on ATV.
Living on P.EI. I would watch that a lot of it too.The only show I liked more than that was HNIC.We only had tfc (two fucking channels) so there wasn't a whole lot to pick from .Sometimes you got 3fc but only if the french channel was coming in lol.
Puerto Rican upper-cut that's some funny stuff always liked him even dressed up like him when i was 12 for Halloween.
Did everyone think you were Elvis? lol
Stampede was on TV in Toronto, along with International wrestling from MTL...and all star wrestling.from BC...
Andrew Strong hey I miss those days we got awa and the Detroit area too it made 6 hrs 6 different territories every saturday
smc chandler all star was shown coast to coast on CTV affiliates. Bctv was the Vancouver affiliate
Wrestlers tell the most interesting stories.
Honky tonk man he's a great story teller
i really miss old school wrestling
Nova Scotia shout out - Grand Prix Wrestling!
I live on the Island and I used to love the old Grand Prix.
Honky Tonk Man seems to be a really nice guy... well-spolen, informative, and respectful of his peers and the fans. Very impressive. And I always LOVED his character. You rock Honky Tonk Man... in and out of the ring.
2:20 Haven't laughed so hard in a long time...
Al Tomko paid double? You wouldnt know that ever happened if you watched his show in the late 80s. That said, I do kinda miss All Star Wrestling...
All Star was so bad, I never believed it even as a little kid. I lived for Stampede. And for a while Big Tine from Portland aired in Vancouver and that was awesome too.
But nothing beat Stampede. Gama and Bad News were such great heels.
HTM is so good at telling stories.
Honky Tonk Man gives a great interview! He also seems very intelligent.
I grew up on Stampede and All Star Wrestling, loved it it was brutal.
Tonky Tonk sounds like a good dude.
2:24
20" arms.
To give you some perspective, Lex Luther came in at 20 ½".
everybody does stu
Honky tonk Wayne has always been a class act.
Funny about the Al Tomko stuff. Living in eastern Canada, Stampede was more of a legend, but it was Tomko's promotion I actually got on TV.
I grew up watching stampede wrestling
Bad news Allen, Archie [the stomper] Goldie, and Honkey Tonk were the greatest heels at Stampede, I never consider the Dynamite Kid as a heel because he was so talented and J.R Foley could put almost any manager to shame because he was a comic genius
I remember seeing him at the stampede thoroughbred races when I was a kid .
I remember his arrival well, I think though that Dr D brought him in as Ragin Cajun, at the time he was one of my faves next to Dynamite!
Does a good Stu!
Miss Stampede so, so much!
Dis Really Elvis Presley though. For real man !
Thee Best style ever!!! Stampede Style 💯
Love hearing htm stories
this is not an insult to honkey tonk, but the line from hogan "you're as good as anyone else" when it came to getting a break for a friend is so fucking funny.
lol that was a great shoot
stu hart and the dungeon i wouldnt want to get streached by stu.
ya Saskatchewan never gets a mention
Honky Tonk Wayne wrestled in Regina, Saskatoon, Weyburn, Melfort, Saskatchewan.
Lyle134 I remember seeing him in Saskatoon when I was young.
14:13
what else happened in that bathroom?.....heh heh
😂😂😂😂😂😂
A Puerto Rican uppercut ...bwahahaha
We’re throwing a party Ed Whalen, and your not invited.
Im native i like that
Anyone got a picture of his 20" arms?
new jack
corny
honky
Pre Internet,did many people believe wrestling wasn't scripted?
@@jamescarter3196 No 🤣 Most people knew it was fake, well before the internet came ever came along.
believing in Santa Claus and that wrestling was 'real', ended at about the same time for me, which was quite young. lol
Some people say Honky looks like Elvis...I'm not one of those people.
300-400-800 miles? @ 11:07
stampede was shown in bc. wasn't just on across the prairies
Why is Bret hart always late? That seems like that is the problem for every company he worked for his entire career. Does he think he can show up whenever he wants, but everybody else is in time?
Yes even in the Stampede days.
I'm gonna guess that hes very obsessive. He probably goes through a very long routine before work and just cant get out of the house on time.
I don't know why people bad mouth Hulk Hogan Hogan got a lot of people jobs even guys like Bobby love Hogan
Bret was always late for everything
Such exaggerations lol.
Hi I +4K
David Sultz was Superstar Billy Graham Hogan took Superstar act Stone Cold did DR.D watch his old promos
Indian Territories Lol
Eh Eh Eh
Stampede Wrestling sucks...Where Ryback trained is a House of Legends
Go get a King James Bible. Read it with your own ego turned off and find Jesus Christ. Time is short.
what's that got to do with wrasslin' ??????
Or we could all just do our own thing and shut up about it.
Religion is made up
