Billy Gunn once said, on the subject of Ahmed Johnson believing his own hype and thinking he was a legit tough guy: "Wrestling isn't legit. If it was, Ken Shamrock would be standing in the ring with every belt wrapped around him, while everyone else lays on the ground outside, cowering in fear."

Steve Blackman, Ken Shamrock, and Dan Severn are legit badasses. Especially Dan when the producers wanted to force on him a gimmick he didn't like, he calmly threatened them that he would legitimately break every wrestler that they would throw at him and "turn fantasy into reality". And the producers knew that he wasn't making an empty threat.

What was is that made you think he wasn't all there mentally

[@jrock5490]

Im not sure exactly. Maybe it was because there was a lot of women there and me and him were the only men. He talked to me for about 10 mins and said, "Well buddy im going in the house" Haha. He left me out to dry with the rest of the ladies

Dan Severn may be a foot note in WWE, but an undisputed legend in UFC. He was doing legit suplex city on guys and was called the Beast long before Brock was on the scene.

[@Scorch1028]

Dan Severn was a better wrestler than Brock Lesnar was. If both men were in their primes, I'd give Severn a 30% edge over Lesnar in an MMA fight.

[@michaelfrazia4569]

Dan is a bad man

[@quinnosborn3441]

His name was Anthony Macias, and he got a 1 way ticket to suplex city courtesy of Dan Severn

[@Scorch1028]

@Juji-Gatame I’m talking about these fighters in their “primes.”

[@Scorch1028]

@Juji-Gatame Let's talk about Brock Lesnar's P.E.D. abuse, which is "cheating." How many times was Severn caught doping? None. I rest my case. Severn is the overall better fighter -- definitely for his era, and I would say even in his prime. When you look at how well the 39-year-old Dan Severn held his own against the 32-year-old Mark Coleman (despite losing to Coleman), that gives you some sense of how skilled Severn was in his prime. Lesnar has relied more on his size and strength than his skill -- and when that began to fail him -- he took P.E.D.s. A week before his fight against Mark Hunt, Lesnar "ridiculed" Jon Jones for testing positive for P.E.D.s, even though Lesnar himself was actively doping at the time he made that statement. Severn began competing in MMA at age 36, and his record is 101 wins, 19 loses, and 7 draws. Lesnar began MMA at age 29. His MMA fight record is 5 wins, 3 losses, and 1 overturned victory (disqualification) for doping. Overall, Severn has a more impressive "legacy" in the sport than Lesnar does. Lesnar didn't have enough fights to really "prove himself" as one of the all-time greats. Severn did.

[@jakemitchell616]

My favorite story about Kurt Angle is when HHH once complained that Kurt shouldn’t be champion because of his height. Either Gerald Brisco or Pat Patterson responded by simply saying to HHH, “well why don’t you go try to fight him then?” Needless to say, HHH didn’t say much else.

[@matthillegas3099]

If I remember that story correctly, it was Pat Patterson.

[@ryannewberry3845]

[@johnliberty3647]

I saw Haku walking into my HS gym when I was about 12. I was at soccer practice right outside the gym and my stupid 18 year old soccer coach yelled “it’s fake”. My father is the same size as haku if you went by height and weight. But haku was scary looking big with a chest that looked like over inflated monster truck tires. He looked like he was about to fight my stupid soccer coach. Luckily both of them stayed in their lanes and Haku only intimidated the idiot and the soccer team. He was so much more scary in person. On the other hand Rene Goulet was at the same event and friends of mine met and played tennis with him, he turned out to be a really friendly guy who interacted with locals who were not even wrestling fans. I wish I met him even though he was a jobber on the down side of his career at this point. We would sometimes get a UHF channel from Quebec/ Montreal in French.. or maybe it was a French speaking Toronto station (who knows) and though it was in French I would watch wrestling on that station and Rene Goulet would be on every week on that station. Ok I got off topic, just remembering my childhood wrestling memories from when I lived in Rural NY state.

[@rejeanbonin7476]

Honorable mentions: Mike Rotunda was NCAA Division I EIWA champion in the heavyweight wrestling division, and a starter on the football team for Syracuse. He has consistently been mentioned as both one of the nicest, and tough, wrestlers of his era. Raymond Rougeau was a two-time Golden Gloves boxing champion. Both are quite, nice guys, but, according to Jim Ross, could kick anyone's ass.

The fact that he got it under a Gracie is especially disgusting because it's just watering down what used to a great name. Just for example, it took me 3 years to make blue belt, and even then I felt like it was too early and I wasn't good enough. For comparison sake: Famously young and badass dude BJ Penn took 3 and a half or so years to get to black belt (and rightfully earned the name THE PRODIGY cause it was so unheard of). He was the first ever BJJ world champ that wasn't brazilian, that's how good he was to get blackbelt that fast. Joe Rogan, a dude with a day job that has even more free time than Undertaker started BJJ in 1996 under Machado (according to a video of his I just watched) and got his black belt from Jean Jacques in 2012.
