    I trained at the Harley Race Wrestling Academy in Eldon, Missouri for a short time in early 2000. It was a great honor to meet Mr.Race. What really made an impression on me was when Harley learned that I had served in the U.S. Army and am a veteran of Desert Storm. We were sitting in his office talking. He got up out of his chair and walked over to me and extended his hand. He thanked me for my service and sacrifice. A childhood hero wanted to shake my hand and thank me!!! It's hard to tell that story with getting a little teary eyed.

    Met Harley Race a few years ago at his school. He invited me into his office and we talked for well over an hour . Smoked cigarettes and drank coffee. They say you shouldn't meet your hero's because they never live up . He was pure class !! Showed me the outline of the plate in his arm as well as his head . He had that put in after that same car accident . So glad I finally got to meet and get to know him . The GREATEST ON GOD'S GREEN EARTH !! Bar none

    • @williamwatson4625
      @williamwatson4625 2 года назад +3

      And It's no wonder why he was among the most legit badasses in the ring, among the toughest of the whole bunch. He used those plates to his great advantage. Even Andre the Giant was scared of him. But, despite that, I read that he was a registered gun owner and he carried a gun while on the road travelling from one territory to the next.

    Handsome Harley did so fine. I did chuckle when he tangled with Ron Etchison on TV in his early days. Ron wore Harley out in roughly 8 minutes. Jack Donvan was a strong supporter of Handsome Harley. This was roughly July 1967. Harley kept moving forward to win that world title. Unmatchable Harley rides again. Mr. Kansas City in my book.

    I have read in multiple interviews that Andre said there were only TWO people that he was afraid of, Harley Race and Meng.
    Flair said in another interview that Blackjack Mulligan likes to test other wrestlers to see how tough they were. In a hotel room, he cheap shotted Harley, was pounding on him in between to beds, would let Harley get up, but Jack punched himself tired, and his hand eas all banged up and Harley got up didn't say a word.
    Ric, Harley, Jack and Wahoo McDaniel were all driving to the next town together and Ric was afrainf there was going to be a brawl between the two of them and Wahoo was like "don't worry about it". They all got in the car together, a word wasn't said and Jack never tested Harley again.
    I had also read the metal rod in his left arm was why Harley rarely threw elbows or forearms after the auto accident, but he did save it for legit fights.

      Hogan Flair and Stone Cold Steve Austin were all huge stars in wrestling but could they sell out the old MSG every single week for years? Sammartino's almost 8 year long reign as champion will NEVER be beaten. Modern wrestling fans (from the Hulkamania era forward) want the championship bouncing between flavors of the month.
