@@bostonwrestlingcom much appreciated! Man, that's sad it got that way, I know he was battling demons. God bless him, he tried, we're all human and life can hurt! Peace brother, thank you for still caring about old school wrestling and its fans!
@@bostonwrestlingcom thanks I want to see this full shoot.bourne is a true legend despite what people say he was doing while wrestling.some say he indulged in drugs but who in wrestling didn't at one point
Hacksaw said it started because he seen Borne hit a woman in a bar and Hacksaw took her home to get away from him, Borne came in a locker room the next day and they fought with Hacksaw getting the better of him.
Borne would lose... Duggan inflated ego caused him to always get DQ or count out etc. Borne had his issues but Duggan from a professional standpoint was a complete joke. I appreciate Brone contributions much more than Jim Duggan.
I don't know if he got the town wrong, but Monroe LA never lost wrestling for a year in the Mid-South days. Also, Duggan has said the heat between he & Borne started over a woman & Borne jumped him in a bar one night (sounds like a pattern with Doink) & Duggan put him down.
Matt Borne’s smile was never the same after his lower lip was bitten off by Brian Blair. Doctors managed to reattach his lip, but you can see that it looks a bit odd. Borne was trying to gouge out Blair’s eyeball, so it was a desperation move, but Borne was disfigured.
I watched Bill Watts slam an old lady into a wall when she attacked him after a match with Jack Brisco in Sarasota in the early 70s. My father was the promoter. I just happened to be walking past the heel dressing room to go to the concession stand and I saw this woman who looked to be at least in her 70s and less than 100 pounds pull something out of her purse and stab him in the back with it. Watts turned, grabbed her wrist, and literally whipped her into a wall. She didn't get up and was taken away by an ambulance. There was a near riot. I gave a deposition which kept the DA from charging him.
This guy had a problem with double A as well and everyone else by the sounds of things - kind of reminds me of Aileen Wuornos, the serial killer broad.
I was just watching that shoot match last night between Matt borne and Duggan it look like duggan was trying to hurt bornes back for real so he tried to kick Duggan in the face so it got really heated and ended not taking sides but that’s how it look
Duggan started by no selling a nut shot from Matt then gave a potato forearm and that's when Matt snapped and did the arm drag and gave a knee to the head.
Borne gave Dugan a shoot blow to the nuts, so Dugan gave him a receipt forearm to the head. Then Borne gave Dugan a shoot knee to the face and it was on. I don’t blame Dugan for leaving the match. If you can’t trust your body to your partner in the ring then there’s no reason to put yourself in danger by giving your body to them.
The fact that Matt's cheap shot on duggan was a kick to the face WHILE HES DOWN was a reminder of why he was pissed at Duggan. The shot was NOT that hard. Duggan immediately knew what it meant.
Kicking someone in the head and making them lose their eye isn't respectable as a man. Plenty of guys tougher than Matt Bourne so to live upto his career choice he had to overcompensate trying to kill people instead of simply having a fist fight. It not like he's Jon Jones is it. I assume he sucker punched the guy other too. They never own upto that part.
eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeh at 4:00 youll notice him lying . he was done fr being with an underage chick. at the time him and hacksaw were a tag team. he left a huge hole in the territory, thats when watts and duggan lost money , not because of any lawsuit
Happens, unfortunately, when you get a real one, grew up in it, dont have a SH** left to give who feels cheated, has demons and the character verges with the person and become undistinguishable. Rest now, Matt.
Duggan didn't like to lose. Very inflated ego, it actually hurt his career. No big feuds because of it. Watching him wrestle Vader was the icing on the cake to his mental issues.
These guys capping can’t believe any of the wrestlers in the fight. Only those who were witnesses and even then they’ll try to make their friends look good.
I have a great story of a bar fight involving my uncle and a popular wwf wrestler from the 80s who out of respect to my uncle I won’t mention the name I found out from my uncle and verified by about 6 others who witnessed it but in 1980 Hamburg fieldhouse in Pennsylvania where a lot of wwf tv tapings were done my uncle got in a fight over a parking space with the wrestler who just won the main event that night and turns out my uncle beat this guy so bad he tried to run away but his fellow wrestlers talked him into fighting more and my uncle threw him through his own windshield of his Buick and the wrestler passed out and laid there snoring for 5 hours my uncle was like 5’9” 150lbs at best but 7 guys have said that he laid this main event wwf wrestler put cold in about 2 minutes over a parking space, maybe when my uncle passes away I’ll say the wrestlers name but my uncle was a fan and didn’t want to embarrass the guy, I have my picture taken with the wrestler in Hershey Pa in 1987 so full circle I guess
I remember when Borne and DiBiase teamed up and fueded with JYD and Duggan, Mid South was awesome, classic stuff!
"3k a week good in 1981"... fukin not bad for 2023, either 😂
This guy is actually very well spoken in every shoot I've seen so far.
Darth vader was present during this interview
Yeah, Cena’s are mouth breathers. The son also wears dresses. F John Cena.
R.I.P Doink!
Keep the Matt Borne clips coming! I've yet to see the full shoot so I am loving this! Thank you for uploading, sir!

R.I.P. Mr. Bourne. I can see you are truly remorseful of the incident wrt the man whom lost his eye.
Why am I convinced that this is not how it actually happened.
because you suspect matt borne is the most nuts wrestler of all time?
Hacksaw said it started because he seen Borne hit a woman in a bar and Hacksaw took her home to get away from him, Borne came in a locker room the next day and they fought with Hacksaw getting the better of him.
Because it's Matt Borne.
They are professional actors
Borne would lose... Duggan inflated ego caused him to always get DQ or count out etc. Borne had his issues but Duggan from a professional standpoint was a complete joke.

You couldnt believe a thing he said. Now they have Marty Jannetty who can not stay sober.
Borne was awesome as heel Doink.
He ever talk about how Dink was as a little brother growing up??
😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣
Rest in peace Matthew. 🙏😉
His voice sounds just like ric flair just a little deeper
I don't know if he got the town wrong, but Monroe LA never lost wrestling for a year in the Mid-South days. Also, Duggan has said the heat between he & Borne started over a woman & Borne jumped him in a bar one night (sounds like a pattern with Doink) & Duggan put him down.
That's not Jim Duggan, that's Brian Blair. The guy bit off Matt Borne's lower lips and spit them out during that fight.
He must have passed away shortly after this interview.
As far as I know he was about 55 years old.
Died 2013
@@corybags7657
Definitely not the memory of him.
Forsure
“He lost an eye, and I gotta live with that..”
Something tells me he doesn’t have much trouble living with it lol
rip doink and road warrior animal :(
Krusty the clown is very accurate

He also got his ass beat by arn Anderson too!
@ItsStillRealToMe DamnIt under rated comment of the day
He doesn't look like he has any lips period.
RIP Dan, you are the man!!
RIP Dan
The rat pack was a great heel staple. I really wanted to see a reunion.
Was this after the shoot match they had?
No before, I believe that shoot was way after their wwe runs

A talented wrestler but everything about him outside of the ring seems extremely unpleasant and some of his actions criminal.
Ken Patera really changed
You don't kick a man when their down. Golden rule if your a real man.
I believe that interviewer to the right is John Cena's Father.
Damn, remorseful after all these years about that guys eye.
Maniac Matt Borne...Mid-South was the BEST!
Duggans story
"Was one guy i knocked out after he suckered punched me and borne put kicked him while he was down"

@@coyote311 have you ever seen a hacksaw duggan match? He sold like shit for EVERYONE.
Well at least he has some remorse but if you jump a wrestler expect a beating. 35 000 compared to what Duggan made with wwf is couch change

What year was this clip from ?
He was Doink, because everyone hated him for a reason!
Year??
How old are these Recordings?
What year was this interview?
Wtf is with the heavy breathing through the entire video
coke i think
Coke
Can confirm, my dad breathes like this, same mannerisms, same posture, hat, almost everything tbh.
It's mostly the silent guy at the table who is doing the nasty breathing BTW.
eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeh at 4:00 youll notice him lying . he was done fr being with an underage chick. at the time him and hacksaw were a tag team. he left a huge hole in the territory, thats when watts and duggan lost money , not because of any lawsuit
Can't believe Animal has been dead for 3 years now wtf
You can tell he still likes coke is nose all stopped up you can tell by his how he talking and the way he keeps draining his nose
Man these wrestlers of my youth all die by 65 yo! Its so sad how the business, ie. Drugs , alcohol, hard living all takes it toll on these guys .
Lol. He never hurt anyone or anything!
Seems like he resents just about everyone except his papa
Happens, unfortunately, when you get a real one, grew up in it, dont have a SH** left to give who feels cheated, has demons and the character verges with the person and become undistinguishable. Rest now, Matt.

I’m gonna assume it was Matt?
Wow hawk died at 60 years old? Rip hawk
He died at 46
Animal. Hawks partner
Animal was 60. Hawk was mid 40s. Animal, Joe Laurenitis just died months ago at 60
"You ever get in a fight in a bar and you lose, you're fired." Haku would've had good job security.
Lying about the Hacksaw fight thats on film! What a loser!
You even just hear how that guy losing his eye made Matt feel bad It probably contributed to his drug usage tbh
Bourne's drunk.
still trying to justify it
What a liar!!!!
I don't think he would have gotten a pat on the back for getting his ass kicked by Brian Blair!
Matt had a lot of demons, no two ways about it.
Hacksaw was a Jabroni he only wrestled Jobbers in WWF therefore he himself was a jobber.
Huh?
Didn't he feud with Andre and Yokozuna? Ha.
Geez! What happened to sting?!? He needs to keep his make up on at all times. Gross.
It's called getting old. Dude is in his 60's. Especially after decades of your body being slammed around.
It wasn't Matt's fault. The guy and his buddies tried to fight Duggan. If a fan tries to get physical with a wrestler that makes him fair game.
