Hannibal just recently posted he interviewed Ivan Putski.... I would never guess that Ivan is that elderly man. I know all those great superstars get old, but wow.... good to see Ivan is still flexing though! ha ha ha
I only remember seeing Ivan on any old WWF Coliseum videos, or back in 1997 when he and his son Scott wrestled Lawler and Christopher on Raw. Good to see he's still alive and doing well!

This interview was filmed at the Icons of Wrestling fan fest at the ECW Arena this past weekend. I would've went but with the holidays coming up I had to pass.
Good to see him still meeting his fans after all these years. Polish Power!

He looks much better than the pics I saw of him last year in one of the signing reports. He looked much older in the ones I saw last year.

Did Ivan Putski do something to piss off people in the wrestling industry? I thought Scott Putski couldve been a big star, but ended up being a JTTS.

He was a barrel back in the 70s. Larry Zybysko tells a funny story about a fan in the front row shouting about him being short and apparently Ivan kicked his ass lol.

I thought it was Kevin Sullivan at first.

My father was not a fan of him. Every time he would be on tv my father would sit there saying he can’t wrestle and all he did was put opponents in holds where he could flex for the camera until I hit the Polish Hammer. lol

for a man his age now, he looks damn good - slim and trim and still flexing. Sadly we all get old  |

He looks better in that photo than when I met him in 2017.
