    Despite his reputation as being one of, if the not the, toughest badass in wrestling, Haku seems like a real gentlemanly person who'd be great to hang out with.

    Haku deserves everything that comes his way.. When I had a picture & autograft from him he was just the gentleman & down to earth person as you see... If this world had more Hakus’ It would be a better world..

    Haku would be a hell of a car salesman. You couldn't haggle with him at all.
    "This truck is $10,000."
    "Alright, how about I pay you $8500."
    "I said $10,000."
    "Yes, sir. $10,000."

    Everyone going on about how tough Meng is/was...WE KNOW! What is overlooked is how good he was as a worker. He could take a bump, but also his incorporating martial arts into WWF as he did was sensational. He never got a huge push as he wasn't great on the mic and wasn't marketable. I am glad he at least got King of the Ring and a tag team belt.

    Can we get some subtitles/English Translation on these clips ??? it's really hard to understand what they're saying other than when they repeat the Word "YOU KNOW" ten times in a sentence 🤨

    There's urban legend that HHH smacking haku like a bitch and putting him in a full Nelson in 2001. Haku begged HHH to let him go because the pain was to much for him to bare..
