and all those Japanese guys took the lariot....and not ONE...NOT ONE..bitched, or cried, or moaned to the boss. Me thinks Mr Baba would have laughed in their face!! LOVE ME SOME STAN HANSEN
Guy was perfect for Japan, really. Would have been a straight mid carder in any major American promotion (where stiff work is less popular and accepted than it is in Japan) but the man goes to Japan and becomes a legend.
@steeldragon1981 They did try to bring him to the US (shortly after his famous match with Vader), but they tried to make him a 'comedy' character and he would have none of that. Check it out, Hansen was such a great wrestler he got a good match out of Lex Luger! In WCW!
@DevilTakeMe He was still much better suited for Japan. Any Gaijin with skills rakes it in over there. He was an decent worker, above average on the mic, but he didn't stand out over here.
@steeldragon1981 He just didn't get a real chance in WCW. He could have been a monster here, as he was already legendary in Japan by that time, and well respected stateside. It's a case of "what could have been."
@DevilTakeMe Eh, he still never really drew in America. He had the one feud with Sammartino, and he was AWA Champion, but he didn't draw and AWA was on the way out by then. In America he was mediocre at best. He was stiff, which isn't well-liked in America, and even had a reputation as being borderline unsafe to work with. Now maybe that was American wrestlers not like his stiff style, I don't know. Like I said, the guy was tailor made to be a top giajin in Japan rather like Vader actually.
@steeldragon1981 The AWA stuff was at the end of his first US run, and then he went to Japan and became huge.
His WCW run was the last time he wrestled in America. He could have had a good few years stateside. In Japan after 1991. AJPW after that was de-emphasizing gaijins and Hansen only really did anything with the Triple Crown.
Again, it's a "what-if" scenario. He did great in Japan, but who knows what a last run in America with good booking would have done with him.
That's actually Lex Luger, from their WCW Halloween Havoc match in 1990. They showed a closer replay after he won, and he really does knock the shit out of Luger.
I just met Stan tonight. His son, Shaver Hansen is currently playing Midwest League Class-A baseball with my hometown Clinton, Iowa LumberKings. Got a good pic with him, pretty cool guy.
Starting @ 5:44, the last 30 seconds of this is pure unadulterated pwnage. I personally think 5:53 is the best: "I'm gonna stab you with this.... Just kidding, LARIATOOOOOO~!"
Nothing cheers me up more then watching a half blind Hansen nearly cave some faces in with the western lariat. All the talk of Hansen vs JBL is bullshit, let me ask you this, would Hansen get KOed by a much smaller guy named Joey Styles? I like to think of JBL as a cheap mix between Dick Murdoch and Stan Hansen, just not as good.
I hate it when people like alfredoncho on page 9 go like, "wrestling's fake, its stupid and should be gotten rid of".
I can name a ton of other things that are "fake", like everything created by our capitalist society.
Sure they don't try to kill each other and there are a lot of controversies and scandals (like its gay -or steroids- I could say that about other sports) but its fun to watch and that's all that matters.
Learn how to respect, I don't meddle in your business.
You can say what you want and do what you like, but know this: You're only a half-second away from eating Hansen's inner forearm, no matter who (Kawada, Hogan, Misawa, Muto, etc.) you are.
Lariato! I could watch this all day. You've got to love the guy for his logic. "Hmmm, I can't see without my glasses, and I can't wrestle with my glasses...and I don't want to look fake...So I guess I'll just hit harder. Problem solved!"
IMO last one is the best... probably not the most significant.. I dont know many asian wrestlers.. He just drops that dude like a girlfriend that says no..
Stan Hansen, the King of the Lariat. Probably the best striking move in the history of wrestling. I could watch him giving people The Lariat everyday.
There is a hospital in Tokyo that has a special ward that does nothing but treat people with concussions. That ward? Was named after Stan Hansen for all his contributions.
Lariat against Steve Williams at 4:26 is one of my personal favorites. Nothing like having a guy the size of Dr. Death go head over heels via Western Lariat. End of the clip with Hansen catching Kobashi in mid-air ranks highly with me as well.
Props for people willing to take it since Hansen for the most part was swinging for the fences.
Hansen seriously just swings for the fences when he gets near someone. Christ man, Theres a couple shots to Misawa and Kawada in there, where he looks like he's just trying to cave their face in with his forearm. Truly one of the stiffest lariats around.
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
JBL vs Stan Hansen would be a classic match, But in my opinion, The Clothesline from Hell is more devistating the Western Lariat. It would be funny if the end of the match is that they double clothesline each other and are out for the count.
Not to burst your bubble there, but IIRC it was Hansen that taught JBL the Lariat. So if anybody knows about putting someone away with that move it's Hansen.
JBL's more flashy than Hansen's because of the "dashing" motion in which JBL's delivers his; but Hansen can connect it on any situation and position. I think Hansen's is stiffer than JBL's
please. You need to get off the JBL podium and watch more stan hansen material. First off JBL neds a fucking running start to kill someone with his CFH. Hansen's LARIATOOO just explodes ANYWHERE and decapitated anyone who came across it. From the top turnbuckle, bounced from the ropes, rising on the floor, slugging it out with the big man, and he takes your best shot and kills you several times with that LARIATOOO. Stan Hansen was JBL before he got off the beer swigging and the sweaty mullet.
The Clothesline from Hell is devestating, no doubt. BUT, and you have to admit, Hansen can take it as well as dish it. JBL vs Hansen would tear the house down.
stan hansen orginated it... there would not be a clothesline from hell with out the western lariat. Also both characters was similar (JBL's first character... and hansens)
old school guy don't know the meaning of stiff! but i suppose if your a new school guy that lariat done stiff would probably make you shit your pants.
I like how at 2:37 after he gives Kobashi a LARIATO Sandwich he stands there like "Yeah bitch, who wants some?!?" Kobashi gets absolutely murdered at 5:34. It sounds like the commentator is afraid for Kawada's life at 3:44, knowing the impending doom that awaits. And the play-by-play man's surprise reaction is hilarious at 4:06.
Indeed! Hansen wasn't only a stiff wrestler with a lariat. His offensive repertoire was quite diverse, more diverse than a lot of the so-called superstars of today.
Considering how his build and size and character would be used, he'd be deterred into some stupid gag character. Definitely awesome watching Hansen bust heads old school style.
That's that best six minutes on youtube. Other people may throw prettier lariats (Nigel McGuinness for example), but nobody does it better than Stan. He just put his forearm straight out and clobbers you in the neck. That ending exchange with Kobashi is too awesome for words. Just seeing Kobashi jump and get hit with a lariat it midair is breathtaking.

Agreed. Just watch the CFH to Eddie Guerrero during their Judgment Day match. Hansen just killed people. JBL has to get a running start. Hansen just has to get close enough.
I don't know, the Japanese didn't nickname Hansen "Ichiban" which translates to "Number One." Hogan was.
But yes, Hansen is a living legend in Japan and got huge pops as a monster heel. American wrestling should know what they missed: Wrestling that was realistic which was Hansen's forte.

Damn, Hansen has stiff lariats, so stiff to the point where he can literally knock someone silly. He even delivered a lariat-ou to Kamala around the 4 min 24 sec margin. LOL. The commentary itself sells this video.
Kawada (black & Yellow tights) ate that Lariat on every possible delivery!! Hansen #1 Gaijin in Japan. I love how he fakes out Misawa towards the end.

That was NOT Kamala, but it was Kamala 2, or Akie Mulumba, like he was known when he wrestled in Puerto Rico

Kawada (black & Yellow tights) ate that Lariat on every possible delivery!! Hansen #1 Gaijin in Japan. I love how he fakes out Misawa towards the end.
