Hey Hannibal ask the Barbarian how he got his huge trapezius muscles back in the day what exercises did he do to get them so huge
1:08:53 all four guys way way out of shape😁
@@JamarLDrCold haha, upright row heavy as you can and shoulder press don't bother with shoulder shrugs they do nothing, when it came to traps, ultimate warrior and Goldberg had the biggest built traps
@@351clevelandmodifiedmotor4 I think Road Warrior Hawk had the biggest traps
Barbarian was one of the scariest guys in his day, but he seems like such a humble, nice guy.
Haku/meng would eat him alive
The Powers of Pain, Demolition, The Road Warriors, Tony Blanchard and Arn Anderson The Brothers of Destruction The Undertaker & Kane... these 5 tag teams are my favorites of all time!!!! The Powers of Pain deserve to be in the Hall of Fame already!!!
One of my favourite WWF wrestlers of all time, just wish they promoted his character more. Would have loved to see him beat up Hogan, warrior and maybe even slam earthquake.
Faces of Fear worth the price of admission alone! Legit
This is one of the best shoot interviews I have watched. The Barbarian seems like a totally good guy.
👍👍👍
One of the best bad guys ever in wrestling of all time. Awesome humble big guy. Used to scare the hell out of me as a kid. Truly a class act
What a gentleman and a great ambassador for wrestling !
I agree WWE should be using him for promotion and marketing he is such a gentleman and gives wrestling a great name
I met "Barb" briefly once, & what everyone says is true, u couldn't meet a better, nicer guy!
I remember royal rumble 92.. when bobby heenan said when i managed him he barely like me...why you think they call him the barbarian...he.s not a hair dresser on his days off ya know....one tuff guy😂
The genuineness of this man is amazing. This is what old school is about. God bless the Barbarian
POPS always has his RAIDERS hat on .. Love you Pops
@@incitingariot9925 Yes Sir .. thank you 🙏
@@aisea061002 He's a true legend 😊 scary heel back then!
I always liked his up lift powerslam the power!! Him and the warlord big dudes.. great tag team
@@No1BRC thank you 🙏🇹🇴🤘
@@beedalton9675 thank you 🙏🇹🇴🤘
One of my favorites growing up. He reminded me of the Road Warriors. Different wrestling style, but gimmick was quite similar. Seems like a genuinely great guy.
I'm like 38 mins in, & my God what a GREAT guy!! Humble, soft spoken, it's NO wonder why u wouldn't want to piss him off!!
Wow this is the first time I've ever heard Barbarian talking. What a great guy, he seems like such a good person!
so weird hearing the Barbarian speak lol. He seems so humble and grateful for the opportunities he got. I will always remember him with Paul Jones being a beast.
In my honest opinion he is an all time great,. He was and is a legitimate tough guy, and always looked the part
Put the Barbarian and Haku in the WWE Hall of Fame.
👍👍👍
Great interview from Barbarian..... Love Devons style of interviewing ,allows his guests to flesh out their answers and never tries to be the star of the show himself !!!
I always said same thing. 👍🏼
very much agree one of the best on the tube for a long time now
Trust me...Barbarian is totally legit!!!!!!! Had the pleasure of meeting him in Atlanta, GA. One of the nicest people I have ever met.
1.00-1.20 right at the start of the interview met so many islander people like this, the old school way of polite and sincere to people they truely respect. Can tell the barbarian got true respect for you @thehannibaltv
Helluva good guy. Down to earth.
I always loved the Barbarian. He was big, athletic and had the look. Too bad he and Haku never really got the huge pushes they deserved!
👍👍👍
I always loved watching the big wrestlers. They had sooooo much strength and power. The way they tossed people around in the squares circle. This man right here was and still is and always will be one of many favorite wrestlers of all time. I remember watching WCW, WWF, WCCW, NWA, and I always had and still have lots of respect for the wrestlers of yesteryear and today. They put their bodies and health on the line to entertain wrestling fans around the globe. Love and respect to all the men and women of wrestling and everyone behind the scenes as well. My condolences to all the families that lost all the wrestlers that recently passed and those who have passed over the years. May the holy creator bring healing and peace to you and all of the families and friends of the families.
Barb is gut-sliced with blood pouring like water, but he says "Just let him go. I consider him as my Grandfather." Much respect to a very kind man.
The Road Warriors and Barbarian inspired me so much when I was a kid to start lifting...
Still wouldn't piss that guy off today.
Would've been interesting to see barb in his prime vs Brock Lesnar in his prime..both great athletes and look to be similar in size style abilities etc
Great interview and the Barbarian was an absolute beast . Loved this guys career ! And what a gentleman !
👍👍👍
One of my favorite bad ass heel wrestlers . He had a great wrestling look back in the day.
I think I'm one of the few people in the world whose main hero when they were a kid was Barbarian. How funny is that? Absolutely loved him while also being terrified of him because he looked like a demon. Just the best. Always wished the Powers of Pain had a better run in the WWF. And how great is it that he's a down-to-Earth dude. Thanks for this interview. Great to see him.
I saw him in the Nassau Coliseum he was very scary looking and in truth he was scary and dangerous if provoked
Such a humble man! Clearly respecting his peers as well! Loved watching him wrestle!
It’s absolutely stunned at the stories of the Wrestlers I feared as a kid....
I respected them before and even more now!!!
Ive heard nothing but good things about this man and this is proof. The Barbarian scared the living shit out of me as a kid ... such an intimidating presence in the ring and a humble man outside it.
This was great to watch, thank you!! Powers of Pain 4 LIFE!!
Man... I love when these full shoots go up! Much needed content during these times.
i play them when I lay in bed I put them on to fall asleep to them
Barb is the man.
Ofa atu big doko. Polynesian men are humble and respectful. Its apart of our culture and upbringing. Just don't get us mad lol. Love hearing the old skool stories. Much respect uso. TokoUso. Legend.
Thank you for putting up barbarian haku hope to see them a lot more they deserve everything played a huge role back in the day and open the doors up for a whole line of Pacific islander that keeps on producing great wrestlers every single generation because of this generation right here deserve to be in the Hall of Fame the only two guys that nobody has nothing never bad to say or you won't ever hear them talking bad about anybody
I remember when Barb, in street clothes did a run-in on the Big Boss Man when Boss Man wrestled Bobby "The Brain" Heenan in Providence, during the "Boss Man's Mother" storyline.
Street cloths ?? I don’t recall show me the video
Video?? It was a house show in 1990.
I love all of your interviews and content.. But this us by far my favorite!! He is beyond humble, respectful and polite!! What a teddy bear of a man, calling his wife "momma".. Of course everyone would respect him, lol, he could bench press over 600 lbs!! I grew up watching wrestling.. My favorite era.. Thanks again!! G ou d bless Bob aka the Barbarian!!
Can u tell me what were the best lifts of Barbarian in Bench press, deadlift and squat? Would be much help. Thank u.
Loved both of these interviews. Both Barb and Haku are truly humble guys, and very respectful of everyone. They appreciate the careers they earned but also the breaks they were given. And only a fool would mess with those two. If they had been together sooner, the Faces of Fear may be listed in the same group as the Road Warriors (far and away the best tag team ever), Steiners, Freebirds, Midnight Express, and Rock & Roll Express.
👍👍👍
Barb was excellent in the movie “Body Slam” with Piper, Capt. Lou, Afa & Sika, Tonga Kid, etc....
What a humble bad ass man.
I met OG at a 🇹🇴 Reunion Summer of 98.. My brother and sister were pretty ecstatic to meet a Wrestler we watched on TV every Monday Night.. and that he was a Polynesian.. We are Samoan so this was after the Wild Samoan and Before the Rock and Rikishi Era.. The Barbarian was Badass Icon and A True Class Act in the Game.. Malo Aupito
👍👍👍
That Raiders hat is dope!
Barbarian seems like a chill guy. I loved his work in the ring. Highly underrated, especially his WCW days.
Faces of Fear, the toughest tag team of all time 👊👊👊
What a great human barb is . And one of my favorite monster heels of all time . He would scared the shit out of me when I was kid .
Haku and Barb both look and move great still wouldnt mess with either of them great interview as always
👍👍👍
How can he not make u smile. Bless his heart. Lol. What a great guy. Not a bad word the entire interview. Cant say that for most.
Awesome guy, loved the match with the rockers too. Glad the Barbarian still with us.
Barbarian is in my top 10 favorite wrestlers. I love this dude!
Thank you God bless
I met him many times in the gym. Great to speak with , a very nice guy ! I've seen him bench press 600,
What was his best bench press?
BAck in to NWA days he was one of the guys I hoped to see on the show, even though the TBS broadcasts were 99% squash matches back then, I always enjoyed watching him destroy someone.
Him and meng possibly toughest wrestlers outside of ring. Barbarian always a nice guy.
Love how he calls his wife 'mama' definitely a great family man
Big love for the BARBARIAN❤❤❤
🖤💖💜👍👍👍
Barbarian had a cool look and at one was getting over back in the day WWF at the time and never got a push very underrated guy never heard a bad thing about him just went out there and worked
I grew watching these wrestlers on wwf video tapes as I live in Australia and wasn't on tv anymore. My favourite at the time was Hulk and most of the babyfaces. Now I like the heels as they made the babyfaces get over. It's great to hear these "characters" talk about their pasts and mad respect to them for giving up their lives and bodies to entertain us fans. There's so much history about these people that only channels like this give to us.
I remember the powers of pain v the rockers is manchesters gmex centre in1990. They were awesome
When people ask who my all time favorites are The Barbarian always gets a shout out. His 1991 Rumble match against Bossman is underrated at ****, loved seeing him wrestle the Hitman live when I was eight years old, and a great example of a picture perfect piledriver is the one he gives DDP at Slamboree 96.
Barbarian used to be such a mass monster
A toda madre he still has massive traps.
SINCE I'M OLD WRESTLING FAN. I DO APPRECIATE MEN LIKE THE BARBARIAN, THE WARLORD, HAKU... MUCH RESPECT TO THE BARBARIAN, HAKU, THE WARLORD... ONE OF THINGS I CAN SAY IS THIS, YALL GUYS GOT STORIES FOR DAYS. EACH STORY SHOULD BE APPRECIATED. IT'S GOOD TO KNOW AND TO SEE THEM STILL ALIVE. WWF DOESN'T KNOWS TALENT WHEN IT SEES IT. FACES OF FEAR, POWERS OF PAIN BOTH TEAMS SHOULD HAVE HELD MORE TITLES. POLITICS PLAYED A ROLE IN THEM NOT GETTING MORE TITLES. BREAKING UP THE POWERS OF PAIN WAS A POOR CHOICE.
What a great guy, a true gentleman and legend.
Thanks for this interview, Hannibal! The Barbarian - a true legend of the business! Thank you for the countless memories!
Stand up man,best to you sir!
Nobody except for Haku should ever mess with this guy. He is scary tough, but a sweet, humble honest guy!! Love to Barb!!
God Bless you Hannibal for getting to interview this big humble and kind man Sionne his attitude is just awesome and love how he calls his wife Big Mama so respectful to the business and his fellow wrestlers God Bless you Barb bruddah 💪🏾☝🏾🤘🏾👊🏾👍🏾🔥🖤
Humble. A true legend!
What a humble honest guy. Loved that interview. Always thought he was underrated in WWF even as a kid. Loved his PoP look with the paint and black tights. The antlers not so much. Surely needs to be inducted into WWE HoF
👍👍👍
i love Reindeer Barb!
very cool. love watching shoot interviews.
Have watched this shoot interview a few times, listening to the Barbarian speak so humbly is such a trip....
I fondly remember their debut in WWF after leaving WCW. They were previewed the week before and I was telling my dad 'you gotta see these guys!' Even I cheered knowing they were heels as they were the only team at the time that were a physical match for the Road Warriors...and Barbarian was always my favourite!
Went to school with both his Sons.The nicest family.You better have your manners on point when you speak the family especially the women. AWESOME VIDEO...
A true gentleman
👍👍👍
Awesome dude ..much respect 😎✨
Powers of pain! I was so psyched when they came to wwf! Warlord was actually the strongest wrestler after road warrior animal who held the record for 800 ib shoulder shrug.
How do u know about their best lifts?
@@abhinavkumar547 well when animal came to my home town , same home town as HHH I was working out and he maxed it out at 800. It's also in his bio.
@@filmaker256 well I comes to know that Warlord has shoulder shrugged over 1000 lbs. He also maxed out at 640 lbs in the bench press. He could curl 225 lbs for 12 reps. All these things r revealed by Warlord himself in his shoot interview with Hannibal. I would say he would be stronger than Road warrior animal.
@@abhinavkumar547 225 is questionable for 12 reps only because his max would be nuts 280 pounds was the record from an armwrestler could have beaten im not theres another armwrestling curling mass amounts of weight
@@finallyfamous9628 warlord has arm wrestled in his youth several times and was his state's arm wrestling champion 3 times. He even defeated Scott norton in an arm wrestling.
Thank you Barbarian for the entertainment you provided during my childhood. I enjoyed your talent, character, and that long fur coat. 😂
The barbarian should been the third road warrior I think he would have been a better replacement for hawk instead of droz plus the barbarian and warlord were horribly used by wwe and nwa/wcw
Definitely. He was stronger, faster, and more agile than Hawk
a Legend big time
First time I've ever heard him talk , but great to see Barbarian doing good
toughest wrestler after haku
Absolutely. They guy took a full blast of mace in the mouth and fucking swallowed it down....🤘😧
Toughest wrestler after Roman Reigns
@@user-gt8fw1uz9v Barb could EAT Roman!
The Barbarian one of the guys who I looked upto wanted to be big like him and manhandle people lol. These guys where like real slife superheros
Dude sounds just like the cookie monster.
FOR FREE, thanks Hannibal. What you gonna do when Hannibal TV runs wild on you ?.
Love Barb, scared the shit out of me in Crockett's territory when I was a kid, he looked so big. Always an amazing talent and what a nice guy
These are two of my favorite from the beautiful island of Tanga. Meng and barbarian were and still are two of many favorites from the islands. These Brothas would have me back down just by their stare. Seeing them in their interviews show their loving hearts and spirits. And they still got it. They haven't lost they wrestling fire. Love and respect always to Meng and barbarian.
Barbarian and Superstar arm wrestled at Starrcade '85, not the first Starrcade.
Great to hear fom The Barbarian, what a nice guy, great that he is duing well. He had one of the best physiques I have ever seen, his neck was mega.
Started in 89 with WWF and Mr. Perfect was my first fave
Next to him I always liked Barbarian and Hercules too, both till 92, then their time was a bit over.
Really liked Powers of Pain as babyfaces when I later bought the tapes from 88
Demolition was always great until LOD came to WWF
Rockers always where great, prefered Shawn even back then
In 1990 Taker came and he was No1 from the minute I saw him, Mr. Perfect with Heenan still close
After Shawns heelturn it was all Taker and Shawn then till today
Wonderful shoot with a wonderful guy.
Much, much respect for the Road Warriors making the Powers of Pain. Hawk and Animal were big enough to stomp them down if they wanted too, when it comes to the backstage dealings, but they gave them a huge boost instead. Even being an old wrestling fan, I wasn't aware of this.
Thanks, Hannibal.
Barbarian would have Ruined Hawk and Animal simple
Great job
I like this, before now l never heard the Barbarian talk...cool guy!
I never would've dreamed he'd be this articulate.
I would have liked to have seen prime barbarian on the rugby pitch, he would have been terrifying
Such a gentleman, Barb.
Nice interview! Thank you!
I watched 80s /90s wrestling and was pretty much done with sports entertainment and ran into him.This guy is so awesome, humble and gentle-quitte the contrast of his characters. After seeing him I realized it's not fake at all... just predetermined!
I was in Aldi shopping in the early 00's and I seen this big dude in a arm cast and a boot doing some shopping. He was in the line behind me and I turned around and was like excuse me are you the wrestler the Barbarian? You were like my favorite bad guy. He was so nice said yeah, shook my hand. I was a little cautious thinking this dude might give me a flying head-butt stick his tongue out and go AAAAAAAAAAA. I wish I would have got a autograph but his hand was effed up.
Charlotte is a great place to have grown up around. I saw the Road Warrior and Paul on Billy Graham Blvd heading to Carowinds in the 80s with my friend and Mom was driving us. I was like "Road Warriors!" and pointing and they just smiled all crazy and pointed back in their make up too.
If you are ever in the area, check out the Skyland restaurant on South Blvd. I think they still have a ton of the wrestlers autographed pictures on the wall. They used to frequent it back in the day.
Barbarian for president 💪
Yes!
Nice interview it seems like all of the islanders call each other cousins the rock has called haku and the barbarian his cousin before
Samoans,Fijians,Tongans,Rarotongans and other Pacific Islanders respect each others,in most ways I guess 🖤💞💖👍🙏🙏🙏
Momma did more damage to Barb than the police did....
the closest thing I seen to these guys that i can think of is AoP, but their character turned kinda cartoony and cheesy once they got called up. Liked watching those guys in NXT
WWE needs a legit tag team that looks intimidating and they need to build them up and protect them.
