Im not sure if i saw this topic on here a while ago or if it was a different forum.. in fairness the majority of topics on here have the done the rounds before.. so, yeah.
Anyway, who is the hardest, craziest, wont think twice about messing you up wrestler that WF/WE has ever signed?
Ive heard many stories and seen many shoots and a name that pops up a lot in Meng
"Fifita made a name for himself outside the ring as the toughest wrestler of his era and is known for allegedly biting off noses, and knocking people out with one punch, slap, or headbutt. Even renowned hardman Bad News Brown said in interviews that Fifita was without a doubt the most vigorous.[2] Bill Goldberg has also called him the toughest man he's been in the ring with. His one time manager, Bobby "The Brain" Heenan said in a shoot interview that Haku was "the toughest man I've ever met in my life." In 1987, Haku had a backstage fight with Jesse Barr (who wrestled at the WWF as Jimmy Jack Funk) which allegedly resulted in Fifita gouging one of Barr's eyeballs out, causing Barr to later wear a glass eye. After this fight, Fifita had a reputation that steered wrestlers away from backstage confrontations.
Arn Anderson said in his book...
"There are 3 types of men: tough men, wrestler-tough men, and then there's Meng."
So yeah, have you heard of any more 'real' tough guys?

Paul Orndorff is a legit tough guy. He once beat Vader in a shoot fight. Also this was only with only one arm as he has little control over his other arm. Vader is another one who is pretty tough but he comes off as more of a bully than anything. In his book, Mick Foley wrote something like wrestlers would just run if they had to face Vader rather than pick up their paycheck because he was so stiff in the ring. Vader once finished a match with his eyeball hanging out of its socket after a match with Stan Hansen

i buy the magazine powerslam available in the uk (not sure where else). they ran a couple of articles on legitimate hard men. to further foxeth story on meng, according to the articles, someone nearly lost their nose in a fight with meng!!
again from the same articles, rick rude was meant to be super tough as well. apparantly he knocked out a massive body builder with a slap ...... while nursing a dislocated elbow!

AHHHH The Haku/Nose biting incident......I was living in Maryland when that happened in Baltimore after a Saturday Night's Main Event taping in 1988. Some bunghole started with Haku at a bar by the Baltimore Arena. The guy kept saying to Haku wrestling was fake and tried to take him on. Haku bit the dudes nose off. It made the local news. No charges were filed from what was said on the news due to the fact the guy started with Haku and he or the bar wanted to pursue the matter. I guess biting the dudes nose off was justice LOL

I thought the story regarding Jacques and DK was that Rougeau sucker punched DK as he was entering a room after being bullied by him for months.
Dynamite lost a few teeth and was knocked out, but I wouldn't say either really won in that situation. Although, Jacques had mob connections, so I'm pretty sure Dynamite just left it at that.
