Just saw this while browsing Facebook. Inoki gets pissed and ****s this dude up. Check it out at 4:34: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9lXAGZtMxU8&feature=player_embedded#!
Hahaha, the great Antonio is a legend in Montreal. Bus used to stop somewhere and the great Antonio pulled the bus to the next stop with his hair. Once I was going to a Vietnamese restaurant downtown with my parents and he was sitting on a bench and he almost hit me with his hair, was prolly at least4 to 5 feet long and attached with tape and everything on the tip. It was ****in weird... Antonio was a strong man, so he didn't really understand what was wrestling I think. so the reaction Inoki had was 100% justified ! The guy died 5 or 6 years ago, a commemorative plate was put on the building he was living ! So that was my story about the Great Antonio ! :good
****ing Hell, soccer kicks to the head with boots on :-( Anyway, what the fat mentalist was doing was dangerous. You should never **** around with the spine like he was, and wrestling is dangerous enough. He was **** at selling, **** at performing and looked hideous. Probably a nice guy and Inoki went way over the top, but I can understand Inoki's frustration.
That was awesome. You don't **** with Inoki in Japan. He got pissed after those heavy elbows to the back of his head and took the matters into his own hands. Back in those days the World Champions had to be able to take care of themselves in case someone tried to make a name at their expense. Check out the WWE Legends Roundtable on Badasses for a great discussion/documentary on some of the toughest in the history of the business.
Know alot about Pro Wrestling. The fat guy was a non-worker, who didn't know how to sell at all. When you show up a name talent, you can get stiffed for it. Well he did. The Forarm to the back was ok, it's how you are trained. Got to make it look and sound real. But again the fat guy was a non-worker and didn't know what he was doing in there. I have taken harder shots over the years and it was nothing. Now these guy in this Vid is a joke except for Pat. Pat Wrestle in the old days when being stiffed and working hard was the norm.
