00:00Let's talk about wrestling fans now
00:02There are a lot of easy jokes you can make about wrestling fans
00:05And I'm not gonna make any of those and I'm trusting editor rich to not make any using mean images of what people assume
00:10All wrestling fans are like I'm trusting you on this one rich
00:12Don't let me down
00:13But one thing that I do feel comfortable saying about wrestling fans is they can get a bit
00:17Intense after all you won't find anyone who hates wrestling more than a wrestling fan
00:21However, sometimes that intense love-hate relationship with the pro wrestling biz can lead fans to take things too far
00:27Wrestlers pride themselves and being able to blur fiction and reality to such an extent. It provokes genuine outrage in their audience
00:33However, some have been so good at it. They managed to provoke something else something almost
00:38Deadly like Seth Rollins did on this week's roar. Hey, at least that fan has a better spear than edge content warning
00:43We will be describing violent attacks in this list
00:45We'll try not to show anything graphic on screen, but if you don't like that sort of thing
00:48This might not be the list for you
00:50I'm Adam hailing from parts of unknown and here are 10 wrestlers who are almost killed by fans
00:54and if you don't want to kill our channel as fans like and subscribe or
01:01We'll kill
01:03You number 10 Bobby Heenan. No one knows how to annoy wrestling fans like the weasel cocky
01:10Charismatic blonde not sure why I like Bobby Heenan so much
01:13But boy do I while most?
01:14WWE fans might remember Heenan as more of a comedy heel dressing up in ladies clothing to sneak into the first ever episode of roar
01:21Getting slapped around by the Red Rooster prior to his career in the big dub
01:25His healing was a little bit more serious in one case a shade too serious on January 27th
01:301975 Bobby Heenan and Nick Bock Winkle were performing for Verne Garnier's AWA at the Chicago International
01:36Amphitheater Bock Winkle was wrestling the beloved Garnier himself for the big belt slammed him pinned him and picked up the win after Heenan
01:43Interfered to remove Garnier's foot that was in the ropes this flagrant
01:48Disregarding of the rules pissed off a fan so much. He stood up and fired a gun
01:52Multiple times at the ring thankfully Heenan and Bock Winkle were able to escape unscathed number nine
01:57Sabu the original extremist Sabu prides himself for being homicidal suicidal and genocidal and would like to politely request that fans not commit gimmick
02:05Infringement by becoming homicidal themselves. Also, probably not suicidal. Also, definitely not genocidal
02:11Anyway in the 90s while he was wrestling in frontier martial arts wrestling
02:14You know that promotion with all the death matches and exploding rings at AEW didn't exactly pay love and tribute to Sabu was told by
02:21FMW head honcho at sushi Anita not to take his match outside of the ring due to checks notes
02:27Yakuza members sitting at ringside. Holy shit for those who've never played a Yakuza video game
02:32They're bad dudes with attitudes Sabu did not listen and dove into the crowd
02:36Anyway, leading to a riot breaking out and members of the gang repeatedly trying to break a chair over Sabu's head you naughty little
02:43Gang boys number eight Oli Anderson
02:46Oli Anderson might not be a household name to most modern wrestling fans
02:50Which would be a shame as he's one of the founding members of only the four
02:52Fucking horsemen the original gang of hateful pricks as such
02:56It should probably not come as a surprise that the man wants provoke wrestling fans to actual factual
03:00IRL violence after tag match with kayfabe brother gene against Tim woods and Dino Bravo. He was stabbed by a
03:0779 year old fan. Holy shit
03:09Grandpa's had a few too many worth as originals and has gone sugar mental the Andersons had failed to win the NWA world tag team
03:16titles from woods and Bravo and on their way backstage an
03:18Elderly man stabbed Oli in the arm and chest with a hawkbill knife
03:22Oli was left in serious condition needing a four-hour
03:25Operation to repair the tendons in his arm and close the wound in his chest nice to know wrestling fans
03:29Don't get any less crazy and weird with age number seven killer Kowalski known to most WWE fans as the man who trained Triple H
03:36And the man who definitely did not train mass transit killer
03:39Kowalski was a legend of the business with a fantastic chin and terrifying eyes the kind of violent lunatic that creates violent lunacy in
03:46Others in one of the most comprehensively violent wrestling stories
03:49We've relayed on the channel Kowalski was wrestling Yukon Eric in Canada in the 50s when Kowalski botched a knee drop and legit
03:55Severed part of Eric's cauliflower ear. Oh sweet Jesus and the story doesn't even end there
04:00Yukon Eric was hospitalized with the injury
04:02It actually ended up being the reason Kowalski got the killer nickname Eric didn't hold a grudge for the botch
04:07But a fan wasn't quite as forgiving after the incident a woman walked up behind Kowalski and said I'm glad you didn't get hurt
04:13Before stabbing him in the back seemingly wanting to do the deal herself
04:17Apparently number six black Jack Mulligan if it hasn't become clear by now pretty much all these stories come from quotes the good old days
04:24Of professional wrestling back when kayfabe existed and according to the undertaker men were men scary
04:30Violent men turns out that wrestling fans emboldened by a heightened sense of reality in their grappling were also way more
04:37terrifying as evidenced by this horror movie level of planning black Jack Mulligan the father of IRS and the
04:43grandfather of Bray Wyatt and Bo Dallas was on the way to the ring to wrestle Pedro Morales in Boston in the 70s when he was
04:48Stabbed in the leg by a fan with a knife coated in pig fat the wound itself was bad requiring a hundred stitches
04:55But the tainted blade caused an infection that could have killed the patriarch of the Wyndham wrestling family
05:01Jesus Jesus wept Jesus H. Christ
05:04wept number five Roddy Piper back in the golden era of wrestling Roddy Piper came to
05:09infuriate wrestling fans and chew bubblegum and he's all out of bubblegum and also it was your bubblegum and he stole it Piper was
05:16Such an effective villain that the main event of the first ever WrestleMania was built around getting even with the saucy Scott
05:22However, three years earlier in 1982 a fan tried to do something
05:25Mr.
05:26T never managed in his career put an end to hot rods antics once and for all in Raleigh, North Carolina a fan stabbed Piper in
05:33The chest it was said the knife came within an inch of Piper's heart
05:36Despite that hot rod gave chase to his attacker until police caught up and detained the man at gunpoint
05:41With the rowdy one saying it was the closest he'd ever come to seeing a man get shot
05:45Number four Brian knobs between rubbing people's faces into their armpits and almost shoot murdering Ken shamrock in a hotel room that one time
05:52It's fair to say that the nasty boys were fairly rotten, dude
05:56And I'm far from the only person who thinks so after a show in Peoria, Illinois in 1992
06:00The nasty boys evidently made an impression on the fans in attendance the tag team of Brian knobs and Jerry sacks were driving back to
06:07Their hotel with IRS in the car when they were followed by a group of men in another car
06:11The car swerved over five lanes of traffic to cut off the nasty boys and force them into stopping when Brian knobs got out of
06:17The car to check for any damage one of the men in the other car a 20 year old named David Miller rushed up to him
06:22And stabbed knobs in the chest who was immediately rushed to hospital
06:26But thankfully survived while he was fortunate the attack wasn't more serious knobs had to be pulled from action for three weeks
06:31Meaning he had to be replaced in the 92 Royal Rumble pay-per-view by Haku number three Dennis Condrey and Jim Cornette
06:37Can't imagine any wrestling fans wanting to hurt Jim Cornette
06:40He's such a rare, Kentucky fried sunshine BS
06:42Jim Cornette famously pines for the days when wrestling was real fans were dumber and the mark of true toughness and dignity was
06:49Screaming at fast-food waitresses, although thinking about it corny probably doesn't pine for this specific day following a show in, Louisiana
06:56A redneck fan tried to talk tough to Dennis country of the Midnight Express
06:59Condrey heel that he was told the fan to go himself
07:02Which is when things turned up a notch the fan threw an unopened beer can at him thankfully country ducked that then probably
07:09unthankfully took the fan to the ground and kicked him in the face even more unthankfully that fan had a group of 12 friends with
07:15Him and they were ready to gang up and kill
07:17Condrey and Jim Cornette who found himself caught in the fray when the rock and roll Express turned on their headlights and checks notes drove
07:23Into the crowd from the other end of the parking lot the good old days of vehicular mayhem number two the free birds when you talk
07:31About iconic factions whose bread and butter was starting riots wherever they went you have to mention the fabulous free birds well
07:37They may sound like a DreamWorks animated movie
07:39They were actually a trio of evil bastards who made a name for themselves with dastardly acts like smashing Kerry von Erich's head in a steel
07:45Cage door or and this is relevant to this story blinding the junkyard dog with hair removal cream
07:50Yes indeed in Mid-South wrestling Michael Hayes kayfabe blinded
07:54JYD who was such a hero to the fans that one of them decided to take retribution
07:57Into his own hands one night in New Orleans the free birds were wrestling a tag match with JYD sitting at ringside in a cane
08:04Sunglasses a fan jumped the rail and told JYD don't worry
08:07I got him for aiming a pistol at the free birds junkyard dog didn't know whether or not to break kayfabe and reveal actually he could
08:14See, but thankfully a cop tackled the man allowing both the free birds and kayfabe to live another day and number one
08:20Harley race, okay, so this one might not have involved an actual wrestling fan, but gosh
08:24It's interesting so leave me alone your big internet pillock's widely renowned as one of the toughest gentlemen to ever lace up a pair
08:30of boots Harley race was no stranger to getting into tussles with members of the public the one-time king of the ring was having
08:35dinner in a Minneapolis restaurant in
08:371965 where he saw a man slap a woman during a heated argument
08:4122 year old race going under the name
08:43Handsome Harley race at the time walked up and knocked that man out with one punch and then left the restaurant
08:48however
08:48Outside the establishment the fallen man's friend ran up to race and stabbed him in the back with a knife he'd taken from the bar
08:54Race was rushed to hospital, but thankfully the wound ended up being not too serious
08:58So not technically a fan attack per se but hey the attackers were horrible balance
09:02You've got hurt feelings and in their macho sensitivity escalated things to a ludicrous degree
09:06So it's not inconceivable that they were wrestling fans and that's our list. What did you the wrestling fans think of it?
