  • Tiny ring hahaha! Great stuff.

  • Easy Easy Easy

  • What yr?

  • Big daddy rocks brings back memories of my childhood

  • Bell goes off at 5:41 if anyone wants to skip right to the match.

  • These British wrestlers on World of Sport were MASTERS of Ring psychology which makes it more fun to watch than the crap we have today. Ring psychology has joined the WWE European title as a retired section of pro wrestling.

  • Daddy's theme should really have been "I will not job."

  • no wonder british wrestling went under!!!!  this is fuckin absoloute dog shit.

  • @dfjsorbys We had some great wrestlers but with Big Daddy and Giant Haystacks you cant ecpect them to be doing moonsaults of the top rope.

  • ..This was Britain's own Hogan Vs Andre!

  • i loved big daddy.

  • WTH? (what the heck)

  • i loved this as a kid!

  • They weren't both fat,i cant remember who was what but i`m sure big Daddy was muscle and haystacks was fat...

  • its the rock! rock bottom to big daddy!, rock bottom to haystacks! peoples elbow to daddy!

  • After wrestling Big Daddy went into acting playing the lead/title role in the 1980s films Porkys!!!!

  • Have a little respect Kids!! This was great to watch when I was wee lad!!:-)

  • Total pish, pantomime season has started early.

  • @TheMagee2002 what a loada bollox lol

  • big daddy maybe fat but he has better agility than giant haystacks because BD can actually run sort of XD

  • there just a pair of fat wasters the only good round i seen then was the size of there impressive wastelines see the state of those kicks when he was lying on the deck hahaha good job pay per view wasnt about in those days

  • they should just belly bounce eachother

  • @GoodFaithEducation Wrestlers are athletes and entertainers. As a matter of fact, Giant Haystacks also had something of an acting career. A truly great man, sorely missed.

  • @letsgo4itynot I believe it is spelled you@re and you put to when if should be too. Who would want to watch Yogi Bear over the age of gestation?

  • @RedZHunter if your going to pull other people on punctuation, sort your own out first!

  • are they seriously hurt or are they acting

  • over all Funny

  • I have few points to say on this

    this is like two gas balloons colliding ....

    I am eligible for this if i am fat ..

    do they actually hurt? I think its like big pillow or a teddy bear falling on me..

  • this is wresling not that wwe shit ;)

  • As a child I watched the wrestling on world of sport every Saturday, I loved it and so did my gran who was in her 50's.

  • wow, its like seeing hbk and HHH :)

  • what is intro song,anybody can please tell me?

  • @bumtaksi: We Shall Not Be Moved

  • @kanenkitten sorry..it's not :)))

  • Weak

  • Hey Guys!

    Go to my channel and check out mynew Hardcore Wrestling Moments From The Past And Present Vol 1!

    10 Minutes of pure insanity and no music over top of the bone crunching table smashing chair whacking mayhem!

  • WHY WOULD THEY SE A 16 BY 16 RING FOR THIS KINDA MATCH???

  • @ChadTheWrestleManiac because its old and people didnt give a shit

  • dont call wrestling a sport its a joke just like the fools that believe and and follow it...good for kids but watching grown ups standing screaming makes me think..mental home calling

  • @letsgo4itynot It's sports entertainment motherfucka

  • @RedZHunter Your easily entertained then little boy...Sure go download yogi bear to...lol

  • @letsgo4itynot So you decide to troll instead by watching videos that you know your not going to like. That make you a bigger fool.

  • Carpidiem88 - if you can bring British Bulldog and Giant Haystacks back from the dead then you know you're on to a winner!

  • big daddy - the walking egg

  • Two giants of my childhood memories. Like watching an old Godzilla movie, as two huge monters battle it out and take turns to reel from eachothers punches. Solid gold family entertainment that I will never forget.

  • Someone should ressurect British Wresling to rival American, Mexican & Japanese Wrestling. If I won the Nat Lottery Euromillions (£163m) I would certainly do that & bring Wade Barrett, British Bulldog, Dynamite Kid, Big Daddy, Giant Haystacks, William Regal, Sheamus (Seamus), and all the other British Talent back to the UK. I would then have John Motson as the lead commentator with Gorilla Monsoon as the co anchor. I would be the owner.

  • @carpdiem88

    giant haystack and british bulldog are dead

  • @carpdiem88 It would like more than a euromillions lottery jackpot win to bring bring Big Daddy, Giant Haystacks, British Bulldog and Gorilla Monsoon back from the dead.

  • Happy memories of Saturday teatimes in a bygone age.

  • my mum told me about this

  • "EASY EASY EASY EASY"

  • Big Daddy would be UFC heavyweight champion today if he was in his prime.

  • I wonder what Scott Steiner would say if you made him watch that...well, I am pretty sure his comment would include the word "FAT".

  • Wrestling is done a flat mat with a circle painted on it, or sometimes on grass as in the Highland Games. Wrestling is NOT done in a boxing ring. Those geezers are theatrical ring fighters, NOT wrestlers! British drama, not British wrestling. British wrestlers would shoulder throw these actors and pin them in less than 10 seconds. To call these two-bit actors "wrestlers" demeans true wrestlers, their coaches, and athletes of other true sports.

  • @GoodFaithEducation

    Oh fuck off no one is saying it's a sport. Wrestlers are performers but there not actors. Calling them actors is like calling a dancer or an acrobat or a stuntman an actor.

    Do you know what real wrestling (or anny real combat sport for that matter) is? It's boring it looks like two guys rolling around groping each other or in the case of boxing and UFC one guy gets a solid hit in and the other one is down for the count.

    Atleast these guys are entertaining.

  • Comment removed

  • @TeamTowers1 ufc is for fag pricks who think thier hard men !

  • @MrCambridge2010 But they can spell better than you can, back to school bitch :)

  • @GoodFaithEducation who are you to tell us what is and isn't wrestling, who are you to disrespect british wrestling, who are you to call it 'theatre' and 'not real'....I actually work for a british wrestling company and i can tell you, the pain is as real as it gets, and i have to ask you this, what wrestling experience do you have?......if you don't care for it fair enough, but don't you dare tell us what wrestling is

  • @GoodFaithEducation Get a life! Wrestling is pure entertainment, unlike your boring channel with its boring video!

  • @GoodFaithEducation maybe u shud get a life instead of putting crap comments n videos if u don't like don't watch

  • @GoodFaithEducation the only thing which is fake is the punches and story lines.

  • @GoodFaithEducation: I'd like to see you tell Chris Jericho he's not a "real" wrestler. He'd cripple every one of your limbs with a different hold...

  • Theatrical ring fighers are not wrestlers; they are actors! And poor ones at that. Big Daddy doesn't know a wrist lock from a wrist watch.

    ATTENTION ROYAL ANTHROPOLOGICAL SOCIETY: International wrestling is not sport; it is theatre. When doing something on the anthropology of sport, DO NOT include cheap theatre. REMEMBER: if you see 'wrestlers' in a boxing ring, they are NOT athletes; they are actors.

    Real wrestlers from the U.K. can be seen in the Olympics and include Amarjit Singh

  • @GoodFaithEducation: One question I have to ask. Have you ever seen what pro-wrestlers have done to people outside wrestling in the past? One example is that Giant Haystacks bodyslammed a TV presenter for questioning Wrestling and the presenter was on the ground for a good 30 seconds.

  • damn that giant haystack weigh nearly 700 pounds!!!

  • man hagrid is a bad mofo!!!

  • Cool Big Daddy is my hero

  • i guess there's only so long two fat gets can run about. 3 mins tops I'd say. me and my nan loved this nonsense when i was a kid. what was it about 70s british wrestling that attracted the very young and the very old but noone in between?

  • pair of darts players 

  • athletes of what? the buffet table?

  • Big Daddies lookin rather like a potatoe haha

  • I'm kind of amazed these are the "Hulk Hogan and Ric Flair" of their day. These guys are fat, visually unappealing, pretty much out of shape. Its just amazing that these are considered "fine atheletes of British professional wrestling", with no intention of malice held against either of them from me.

  • @LordKalbert Most people in wrestling (WWE etc) aren't good wrestlers. . . Ric Flair was far from good, and Hogan was no way near . . an example of a good wrestler would be Kurt Angle, Chris Benoit, Finlay (Fit Finlay in the 70's) . . . but the reason Hogan and Flair were so popular in their day was because of the entertainment they provided to the fans. Big Daddy and Giant Haystacks were hugely entertaining,thats why they are considered English Legends.

  • @hiphopf0reva I always thought Ric Flair was good wrestler. He wasn't great but he was better than most. Hogan though, I'm well aware. Ric Flair and Hogan also didn't look like hogs. However I see a little Hogan and Flair in Big Daddy ;)

  • @LordKalbert I suppose everyone is entitled to their own opinion. . . . .no worries pal.

  • What year is this?

  • Giant Haystacks = Heather from Eastenders

  • Supurb stuff, reminds me of Saturday's on ITV Sport, rarely missed it.

  • Did I really find this exciting all those years ago?

  • that was a good match back then lol

  • Did Giant Haystacks ever wrestle Andre the Giant?

  • Fine athletes! 

  • giant haysticks isn't nearly as big as big show am i right?

  • @nonevideoable: Well Giant Haystacks was billed at 6"11 wheras Big Show is billed 7". You can compare them wif you look for The Giant vs Loch Ness in WCW

  • @kanenkitten well i haven't seen giant haystacks perform anything other than a body slam or a close line

  • @nonevideoable yeh haystacks was bigger pretty much apart from the 1inch height difference, Haystacks was 690pounds and 6 foot 11, Big Show is 7foot and around 460-470 pounds

  • @loftus1996 well haystacks was all fat no muscle

  • Big Daddy vs John Elijah proves he could actually wrestle if he needed to.

  • my mom used to watch these guys 

  • happy days all the best RobotRuss

  • Saturday tea time as a child I would help Mum put the shopping away then Dad would come home from work and we would all sit down,have our sandwiches and watch the Wrestling,,,happy memories, happy times.

  • @MrsPisaroni

    weird, i seem to remember saturday wrestling as being on in the morning. but you obviously have a much more detailed memory of it so i must be mistaken.

  • @SquishedButterfly wow he is fat

  • @SquishedButterfly You are right,wrestling did move to the morning,unfortunately this was when ITV were in the process of shunting it out of the schedule altogether. Originally it was on before the 'final football scores' on World of Sport (back in the 1960's & 70;s says she displaying her age !!)

  • It's Hurley!

  • @oneUNITED7SS loooooooool

  • @oneUNITED7SS it's heather from eastenders.

  • the hulk hogan and ric flair of their day

  • i slammed giant haystacks

  • haha, i remember these guys, British Saturday afternoon wrestling in the 80s...

  • MY HERO'S!

  • @TheMagee2002 and not 1lb of lean meat on the pair of them lol

  • i could totally kick both of there ass! GRRRR! :L

  • big daddy was a british folk hero

  • Big Daddy would have knocked the living shit out of Steve Austin FACT thumbs up if you know i'm right

  • Is the ring tiny or are these guys just MAHOOSIVE?

  • @Snookbone ring is tiny i just noticed that myself !

  • i now realise where rowling got her inspiration for hagrid O_O

  • Looking at these Two Magnificent Athletes In action Is Inspiring! Body's Of Kings and Heart's Of Lions! Wrestlers...I Salute you

  • Mexico has Santo, Japan has Rikidozan, Canada has Bret Hart, America has Hulk Hogan, Britain has that useless tub of lard Big Daddy.

  • @squidlad: although you have to admit there are similarities between Big Daddy and Hogan. BD isn't really a useless tub of lard he can wrestle, he just doesn't need to. If you don't believe me, check out Big Daddy vs John Elijah

  • I'm sorry Kanenkitten but every wrestling critic in the world disagrees with you.

  • @squidlad Big daddy can actually wrestle. Instead of crying if he loses a match despite being way too old, unlike a balding, overrated hasbeen.

  • Oh wow! Yeah your asinine insisting has completely changed my opinion. Thank you for just blandly stating that Big Daddy can wrestle without offering up a single example as to how you know this.

  • @squidlad Big Daddy vs John Elijah. theres your example. So how about actually researching someone, instead of making a small minded opinion after watching one video. Another pointer too buddy, when stating a countries best wrestler....dont forget about the British Bulldog in future.

  • Research? Hmm? I have a better idea. How about you lick my balls.

  • @squidlad Another small minded response, thus proving yourself further as a simple parasitic maggot. Revel in your own failures you fucking scum.

  • I could argue with you but I'd way prefer you to lick my balls.

  • @squidlad Your a worm. You have no balls, jackass.

  • You do realise i'm not actually reading anything you write?

  • @squidlad That makes you ever so cool. Invalid cunt.

  • @JorgCosts3Fiddy

    He's trolling you, man.

  • What a crappy match. .

  • No figure fours in this one.

  • hey guys add my mate TheMysterio1995

  • Nice Idea!!!

    two normal men fight ...nothing special...

    two fan men fight .... lets see who wins....

  • This is the crap that made me ashamed to be a wrestling fan in the '70s and '80s.

  • @GravyDaveNewson

    What..... and wrestling's "good" now then?

  • my whole family just watched this lmfao! 

  • bad acting.. but hell was entertaining to watch and laugh at XD.. love this!!

  • It is shit. But it's childhood shit, so I fucking like it.

  • this is classic just because it not what your used too doesent meen its bad this is were wrestling orginated from.

  • Jesus Christ, this is shit!

  • 550lbs haystacks :S

  • moobs galore

  • EASY EASY EASY EASY

    

  • fucking fatties

  • Dire.

  • Fucking hell. This brings bang all those shite saturday afternoons from my youth.

  • This was really bad but i still love it! miss the 80's man

  • That was great, smiling at the entertainment it still gives

  • que viejo yo lo veia por espn

  • greatest british athletes of all time

  • @sirpico123 Pffft, William Regal has more talent that both those men combined!

  • @sirpico123 hahaha so very true!

  • wow am getting old LoL

  • it was always good tv. and was best of british at the time.. and we all cheered for big daddy. EASY EASY EASY. LoL. Brings back memorys seeing this.

  • Clash of the titans this was when i was a lad. Loved it on Saturday's ITV.

  • I loved this shit when I was a kid. 12pm saturday, live from Beduff Civic Hall. Then out for a play and back for 5 when it was The A Team or Streethawk or Airwolf or whatever was vogue for lads my age?

  • we used to have to watch wrestling EVERY saturday afternoon on the telly with Mum & Dad. We went shopping EVERY saturday afternoon but just HAD to be at Nan's for 4 O'clock for the wrestling. Happy Days x

  • it was great as a kid though!

  • All acting of course.

  • I'm just glad neither of them had a heart attack. Giant Haystacks looked like he might have one getting into the ring.

  • I love the old granny from 9:10 to 9:15 getting over excited and having to be held back by security :)

  • this does look a bit staged

  • 16.00 Saturday afternoon, never missed it

  • This came straight out of the Northern working mens clubs. Both drank together in Giant Haystacks pub. It was about entertaining a crowd with harmless fun. I used to love the old women banging their handbags on the ring.

    Take it or leave it, it was probably less fixed than international cricket.

  • The punters ,They'll stand for anything?
