RIP to a legend, Leon Allen White. We love you, big man. RIP 1955-2018

Rest in peace, Leon.

You have to love the way Vader yawns while describing a match where his eye was literally popped out of his skull.

To be honest Austin claims he was the toughest sob. Stan Hansen & Vader definitely take that prize.

As tough Stan and Lion are/were, the toughest SOB in wrestling history is Haku (Meng).

I bet even in UFC if someone's eye popped out they would end the fight. Vader kept going and that is crazy. hospital bill cost half that paycheck and we all know how outrageous those bills always have been so Vader made pretty good money back in the day. fact he kept wrestling for many years after that is amazing.

To be fair, UFC refs are always looking to stop the fight. Refs in wrestling are looking for spots and outcomes as well as tracking time etc. At this point it is usually the talent's job to say ok it is done short of death...

Sanders Keel sorry but if you can clearly see an eye pop out that is an emergency room visit. the ref should have done a better job, even back then.

You seem to know literally nothing about the UFC (the UFC is a promoter, btw, the sport is MMA and it is just, that a sport. It's governed by state athletic commissions and shares commissions with boxing.) Of course if someone had a serious injury of ANY kind they'd stop it. Eye pokes happen and when they do, the fighter gets time to recover and a doctor comes in (a doctor provided by the athletic commission, not the promoter) and checks the fighter for damage that would render them unable to fight. Being a wrestling fan and an MMA fan puts me in contact with so many wrestling fans who have the weirdest ideas about mma even though information is readily available and it's what wrestling used to be about but real. How you could possibly think an eye coming out wouldn't be a stoppage when being knocked out or too badly staggered is? I just can't wrap my head around aside from just literally not knowing anything. That's ok, it's just crazy to encounter. It's not a fight to death (LOL) and now you know

What The, who are you talking to?

Jesus H Christ. That is one of the most horrible injuries I've ever heard of. Up there with New Jack's head getting crushed, losing half his vision and brain fluid spilling out, this is pretty damn bad. Losing half the sight in an eye from having your eye pulled out and the ocular nerve stretched out so the eyes work separately, pushing it back in with your own hand, pulled back out again, cut off completely and reworked, half the bones in your face fused, your nostril remade, it just sounds god damn horrible.

This man is a legend. The US promotions treated him terribly compared to Japan.

Absolute badass, just saw this injury from a surgeons perspective and it’s insane the devotion he had to the sport.

IT'S TIME, IT'S TIME, IT'S TIME, IT'S VADER TIME to be indroduce in hall of fame class

RIP Leon ... so sad to hear about your passing

Ric Flair said the only wrestlers that could keep up with Bruiser Brody & Stan Hansen is a young Kurt Angle. Brody & Hansen were as bad as it gets.

There will never be another Stan Hansen and big Vader. They where the last of the real deal.🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🤠💪

Stan is a sweet man.... Every story about Stan just brings a smile to my face. He is not working us when he is interviews... Vader is also an honest man...

It's so weird that he had a bad heart here but Vader looked good here. His breathing seemed fine. Poor guy. Rest well

LOVE watching the stories from back then. . .

RIP to the greatest big man in the business long live Vader

I will never forget when Big Van Vader first came to WCW in 1990.

Seems like a really nice guy, gentle giant, RIP

He was a good guy and definitely a giant, but really was not known for being gentle.

Are there shoot interviews with Japanese wrestlers translated to English?

What a great triple threat match this would've been Brody vs Vader vs Hansen. Rest In Peace Leon Vader White and Frank Brody Goodish

Leon was truly a cool dude!

Leon is a REAL man, you posers. He has Stan Hansens' respect as a warrior, Jack!

Considering Hanson had bad vision, even at that time, im sure he didnt mean to pop Leons eye out. Definitely one of the most insane things ive ever seen in a wrestling match.

i love stan hansen matches but holy fuck, this takes him from being stiff to being slightly demented. I watched the match before knowing the whole story and you dont see vaders eye come out but you see it super fucking swollen, and you see stan slap the side of his face REPEATEDLY. stans one rough s.o.b., putting the 'strong' in japans 'strong style'

After putting it back in, it was half an eyeball out...jesus christ

“I thought, ‘well shit I’ll try it’ (lol)” wow

Jesus fuck this guy is made out of steel thats a scary man.

R.I.P. Vader.

I LOVE THE FEUD WITH WITH LEO WHITE AKA VADER VS STAN HANSEN !!!!

Did he speak on having any vision impairment

Vader is one of the most athletic “giants” in wrestling. Stan Hansen is the western lariat, classic cowboy gimmick but taller, more raw, and more vicious.

R.I.P. LEON

They don’t make wrestlers like they used to.

What a tough MFer

That's Nuts

He reinjured it in house show match with Kane. The tombstone put too much pressure on the eye socket.

Damn that’s crazy damage , steel nose too wtf

Вадер лучше из лучших

Austin finished?..yeah perhaps..cause they cuted to the go home,thats why owen turned to the crowd,and austin dit a roll up,its not that austin and owen went further for like 10min..no with the nekbreakbotch they instantly went "home"yeah austin(always liked him and the gimick) maybe tough,but a vader,or hansen or brody,guy"s who made a career in japan,in my book,they are the toughest, u cant compare working us vs working japan..i mean vader freaking eye poped ou once,vs stan,.. i find that when youre that over in japan,u must be a very tough s.o.b especialy when youre gaijin...

Michael Eavis has let himself go.

Good luck losing your temper with Hansen. He can take it as well as he can dish it out, and it'd just end with him working even stiffer. It's like saying you're going to work stiffer with Terry Funk. he's not going to care.
