I met Terry Funk when I was a little kid. He tussled my hair and said something like "Do good in school or you'll have to get punched for a living, kid". Best advice I ever got.

Terry Funk is one of the nicest guys i've ever met. He did an appearance for Harley Race Wrestling in the late 90's and he signed a folding chair for me that was technically property of the fair grounds. He carried the chair outside past security and made sure nobody tried to take it. Its hanging on the wall till this day.

I think some honourable mentions for this list are in order: - Abdullah Kobayashi - Alongside Shuji Ishikawa, they wrestled in what is literally THE BLOODIEST WRESTLING MATCH EVER, taking bump after bump in lighttubes, even up to the point where both wrestlers stripped off their pants, revealing traditional sumo wrestling attire underneath AND THEY STILL TOOK BUMPS IN LIGHTTUBES.... SERIOUSLY. - Wifebeater - CZW's Wifebeater. Former US Marine and deathmatch wrestler. You may know him as the man who took a weedwhacker to Nick Mondo's stomach. Also, according to Jun Kasai, Jun lived with Wifebeater while he was living the USA and he noted that Wifebeater was legitimately crazy which is telling considering 1) just look at how messed up Jun's body is, and 2) for the most part, deathmatch wrestlers are super, super nice and friendly people outside of the ring. - Minoru Suzuki - Legit badass in the ring. Chill guy outside of it. What else can I say that hasn't been said about Suzuki? Others include The Original Sheik, Sabu, Tiger Jeet Singh, SHLAK, Takashi Sasaki, Masashi Takeda, Kensuke Sasaki and MASADA.

Jack's #3 spot is justified. Anyone in Japan that has ever bounced off barbed wire rope has him beat and Abdullah is an unsung hero a lot of newer heads forget about. The first time I saw that dude it felt like staring death in the face.
Terry Funk is such a nice and wholesome guy in real life. It shows his skill as a performer that he provoked people to stab and shoot at him when he is actually such a kind soul to everyone he met. And Mick Foley is as well. He's a man with a huge heart and a very loving and great husband and dad.

Nick Gage's matches with Moxley in CZW were glorious. A favourite of mine was the Triple Threat one at Southern Violence with Mox and Drake Younger.
Jun Kasai has bled so much if someone needed blood to survive, Jun would save them and then some. Also I’m glad you put Toshiaki Kawada on the list because even without a weapon, some of the moves look crippling or at least damaging enough to put the opponent down.
Mick Foley is probably the wrestler I'd most like to invite to a dinner party. He sounds like an incredibly cool and laid back guy. Some of these men I wouldn't want to meet even with armed security in attendance.

Dont forget what happened to Bruiser Brody...he was killed like an animal due to the enemies of his wretling career...Haku was a respectful fighter...I admit it for how mean these men were...not Haku...
I met New Jack who was one of my favorites almost 13 years ago in a bus station in Atlanta and he was so polite and willing to give me a autograph and have a short chat with me
That's absolutely disgusting that Abdullah The Butcher was allowed to wrestle and blade others/himself like that while positive for Hepatitis C. Huge liability. I hope they all sued.
I think this entire list is just an excuse to talk about how batshit insane new jack was and probably is.

One problem with this list: Where the hell is the original Sheik? He belongs on the list. Period.
Shit, I totally forgot that was Joey Nutella that Zandig threw off the roof into that pick up truck from hell 😂
One of the best videos you guys ever made 😀

How do you figure? All it proves is how clueless they are, in regards to wrestling history. The Sheik, the man called the Godfather of Hardcore Wrestling isn't on the list? John Tolos, Mad Dog Vachon, Sabu, Vader, Stan Hansen etc etc etc. Actual WRESTLING LEGENDS.
I figure Jimmy Havoc and Abyss would be on this list maybe we need a part 2.

Pfft! Abyss, my ass! See yourself out, sir.
Abdullah was nuts...and in WCW he and Mick(as Cactus Jack) took it to a level I hadn't previously seen as a kid...
4:43 actually Mick said Diamond Dallas Page was the first who introduced thumbtacks.
I thought we’d see Tiger Jeet Singh, who would beat the shit out of his opponents with the handle of his sword before the matches even started!
i think Abdullah the Butchers Hepatitis match might be the most sickening thing I've ever seen.
The greatest classic ECW and NWA fueds would have to be Terry Funk vs. Mickey Foley.
God even in black and white seeing Abby bleed on people makes me uncomfortable
Does New Jack actually have a finishing move?

I thought for sure he'd be number one.
Terry Funk being shot at in his own words its a compliment it means you are doing your job well.
Spot on top 4! Probably an accurate top 10 no one could discredit
Do a list of the best wrestling promotions current and discarded
I dont think Zandig is either the new Paul Heyman nor a reckless backyarder. I find him somewhere in between the 2.
Who wants to see a battle royale with only people Jim cornette would complain about
Great list. Solid picks. Although I do think that Sabu and the Sheik deserve honorable mention.
When you expected New Jack to be number 1, but he’s only number 3.... Let’s just say I was scared to watch the rest of the video
Surprised the original Sheik isn't on here. Fire, fire, and being Sabu's uncle and trainer should at least be an honorable mention. Did I also mention he really loved throwing fire?

Great list you have the right 10
Meet Kawada a few years ago at his restaurant in Southwest Tokyo and he’s one of the nicest wrestlers I’ve met.
New Jack is extremely dedicating to his character, aside from real life things like substance abuse for example!!

When you said you were leaving off the performers who were violent people outside of the ring, I kind of expected that to be the excuse to leave New Jack off the list
Leaving the Sheik off made this list void.
Magnificent Muraco was brutal also.
