7 Times Wrestlers Lost Control on a Talk Show

Description

Professional wrestling is an unpredictable spectacle that provides thrills and spills in equal measure. The same applies during those rare moments wrestlers step outside of the squared circle and onto the set of a talk show! Here are seven times things went amiss in front of a live viewing audience! The Times Wrestlers Got Physical on a Talk Show While the larger-than-life personalities and personas of wrestlers lend themselves to talk shows, these great athletes don’t always get the respect they deserve once on them. And when those regrettable words “Show us a move!” or “Isn’t Wrestling Fake?” get muttered, things don’t typically end well for the host! 1. Giant Haystacks Bodyslams Jackie Fullerton While the WWF’s boom period came in the 1980s, the UK wrestling scene was primarily influenced by the TV program World Of Sport. In contrast to Hulk Hogan in the USA, in Britain, Giant Haystacks forged a massive legacy with an imposing figure at nearly 7-feet tall and weighing near 700-pounds. Noted for his appearances with Big Daddy, he was not necessarily the most versatile in the ring, but his name value would later get him runs in Stampede Wrestling and even WCW.
