I wish more people were honest like him
prototype9000 He's not a wrestler per se, he was a college graduate with 2 degrees who got into wrestling because he liked it, even though he had to train on a farm and drink water from a trough with horses and livestock. The guys who do it for the money are just whores who either quit in 2 years or lie their asses off like Hogan.
The GREATEST Intercontinental Champion of all time. His character is still priceless
Greatest Intercontinental champion of ALLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL time
when he winks about the muscle tear, am I the only person that thought of Triple H's quad?
and vince's royal rumble double quad tear
Future man here. During 2018 at WWE's joint PPV with the Kindom of Saudi Arabia hosted Crown Jewel at which Triple H tore his left Pectoral muscle right off during his and HBK's match with The Undertaker and Kane. Triple H = Steriods
💯
you mean Nash?
HTM has his faults but I've always loved his honesty.
Yeah he’s honest that’s what makes him likeable.
Thank you for being so honest
PC Invictus honesty?...😂
I applaud his honesty. Way to go HTM!
Hilarious how his hair and sideburns are just like it was 1989
Love the honesty
Best storyteller in wrestling.
Sorry HTM is a great story teller and I also love his honesty about things. But Cornette will always be the king of wrestling story telling.
Idk man Scott Hall can talk..
Wow he’s definetly a nicer guy than he appears in tv lol
Steroids don't automatically create Ultimate Warrior-like physiques, so if you're disbelieving because he wasn't a monster muscle head, you have to look at it differently.... take a SERIOUS look at HTM in WWF, versus his early times in CWA/Mid-South, and just in general, he was in fantastic shape. It's hard to see that when you're comparing his body to Hulk Hogan's.
well put
I had a talk with another professional wrestler and this is what he had to say about steroids....
There were wrestlers who worked out like crazy that were on steroids.
There were wrestlers who worked out like crazy that were not on steroids
There were wrestlers that didn't work out at all, but still took steroids
There were wrestlers that didn't work out at all, and didn't take steroids
If honky was taking steroids, and he was working out, like he claims an interviews.... Has to be the most unlucky person in the world when it comes to getting definition
He says in his Hannibal TV shoot that he "enjoyed that I didn't have to work out quite as hard to get better results", so he's somewhere close to the third category.
Yeah, he wasn't big or ripped. It's genetics though. There's a lot guys at the gym who take steroids and you can barely tell they lift, and others who take them and look like freaks, which is where good and bad genetics come in.
Great piece. It is refreshing to see HTM speaking in a normal voice and actually passing on information as opposed to trying to cut a new promo.
All I can say is Thank you for your honesty. Wow, this was very insightful!
i never liked his character. i never really liked anything about him. i only watch a shoot interview with him to see billy graham, but hearing HTM talk really changed my perception about him. very cool guy. thanks.
"I shaved down all my body and ooohhhh booy"
HTM is and will always be the Greatest !!!!!! I love his interviews !!!
He's a good ol' boy.
Appreciate the honest and humanizing demeanor of the Honky Tonk Man here who by the way after admitting to all that is still alive and looks healthy and happy considering. He still has that charisma and should have tried acting if he hasn't already. Definitely a wrestling legend and party entertainer. I would love to listen to this guy tell old war stories by a camp fire at a barbecue man, such a great story teller and brings alot of experience to the table 🤙🏼♥️
HTM is 1 of those people that would give you extremely valuable advice on any subject and he would probably be happy to tell you.
Most wise people today don't get to give advice because my generation think we know everything.
We don't.
And I sure as hell don't.
Wayne Ferris (HTM) is a decent old guy.
The thought of how many of his colleagues died so early is disturbing
awesome interview !!!!
HTM is a legend
I met him one time great guy
He reminds me of Randy Quaid lol
He’s so down to earth
This is a true shoot. Straight up honesty.
great uploads, subbed
You sure couldn't tell by his body that he did steroids.
I thought the same. Him and Jake Roberts
Maybe he was really small and thin without em.
Yeah but it takes like years of steroids and training hard to look like ultimate warrior or Lex Luger. Someone may well have started taking them then decided they wasn't going to stick with it long enough to look like warrior.
He must have taken steroids just for the faster recovery reasons
very funny dude
good interview
HT man was always one of my favs. A really smart guy and his character was hilarious with his wit and such a great heel he was. Always a straight shooter, no BS. I loved him as IC champ and how he complimented Jimmy Harts character. I miss this guy. He is need back in wrestling.
$10 for a vial of real pharma Deca. Wow.
Steroids is a great pain killer along with a strengthener ..He never said he used steroids to buff himself up from the weights..I knew all those guy were on a lot of pain killers and other substances due to their schedules and certain stunts impact in the ring..

How do you have Jericho on this list but not Randy Savage??
Pretty good list. You see jericho 5 years ago ? About 300 lbs n sloppy
What a down to earth guy👍
Best I’ve ever heard
Honky Tonk with a good physique? I'd probably have to see it to believe it.
The heart DOES respond to steroids, it also makes it expire faster. That's why men die 7 years faster on average than women, and people on steroids in about half the time.
That's why wrasslers live to mid 40s
Oh wow that's crazy. Can you reference any evidence of that?
He never looked like he was on steroids, even on that card.
I used to out lift guys that were on steroids. Never took them because I saw how they affected those who took them. A big problem with steroids is that it causes the belly of the muscle to get far stronger at a faster rate then the tendons and ligaments that connect the muscle to bone. As such it's much easier to get a complete tear off of the bone. Wrestlers dying at a young age because of how all the drugs and steroids adversly affect the heart muscle and other organs.
Was HTM ever ripped?
Actually the muscles tear during TRAINING, but you don't feel it until later.
HTM is a pretty cool cat.
Ha! Sitting in a car, sharing "about a dozen joints" on a road trip with HTM sounds like a fun, fun way to spend four hours...
That was fierce interesting.
many get an enlarged heart from steroid abuse...
Very honest man. He had a funny act, I always thought he was funny out there
I once played a gig 6 hours away, I just kept rolling joints, must have smoked a quarter with 3 other heads
For those that say " you couldn't tell he was on steroids". If you know what you're looking for, you CAN tell.
I've spent enough time in and around gyms over the past 16yrs with dietitians, weight lifters and internationally competitive bodybuilders. Multiple family members of mine have used steroids (two died from heart attacks; enlarged hearts) - both were honest about their use.
One of them (my cousin) would ask "Can you come into the toilets and shoot me up". That gym had signs up asking members not to leave their used needles lying around. A friend of mine (a very soft looking, chubby man - also on steroids - was his training partner), would always end up injecting him.
I have had friends on steroids and have friends that currently use them.
One of them (who's honest about his use), looks like a stereotypical fast food, beer bellied, over weight guy with no muscular development at all. He has gangly arms and legs, he lifts well below average for his gender and weight.
He has a moon-face, a constantly rock hard bloated stomach; (water retention) and a muscle tear in his shoulder that he has attributed to his years of steroid use.
Steroids doesn't necessarily equate to big & ripped or big OR ripped.
Honky was probably using steroids regularly (from what is an educated guess) around the back-end of his run in The Blonde Bombers up until mid-late1989. He looked like he'd have utilized compound lifts.
I never knew he had a pec
I think it's funny how people that were born around the 50's will always talk about how much weed they use to smoke
At what point was HTM ever buff ? I don't remember that at all .
Taking roids doesn’t automatically give you a body builder physique you have to work out and eat right to get there. He may not of looked “buff” but he was definitely strong
says it like it is
Handsome guy
My dad took steroids his doctor prescribed to him for his multiple sclerosis
Big rob
His guitar was tougher than he was.
I honestly wonder how Vince McMahon or any of the wrestlers he employed didn't end up in prison for all the illegal drugs they used and bought. He must have a damn good legal team.
of course he does and has many high profile investors
power is money
When is this from? Guessing like 2001.
2008
@@TheHannibalTV Thanks. Love the channel.
I need a cycle
HTM took steroids?! He always looked guy that wasn't on steroids! Skinny arms, no shoulders etc
Not everyone becomes Brock lesn r
Steroids don't make you Brock lesnar, lol. most people.who do them see gains and then losses because they get off and depression prevents them from training hard enough to maintain their gains they made from the gear.
HTM looked like he took........ hot dogs and pizza
Is he in a jet?
Always wanting to prove himself
No longer wrestles but still has Elvis sideburns...
You should reach out for him and let him benefit your amazing wisdom
I think he's one of the legends, but damn he never looked like he did steriods. I mean he had no definition. Even for that time period he didn't have a good body. He's a big dude, I believe 6'4, 245.
Davey Boy may have been fit but he used to go on a lot of Coke benders that doesn't do the heart and a good and sleep deprivation that isn't good for your body either
According to Bret Hart, Davey Boy was awake for 72 hours straight from smoking crack before they had their Summerslam 1992 match, so he basically had to carry him through that entire match. It’s another reason why that’s one of the greatest matches in WWE history when you take that into consideration
The steroids his grandmother was taking for cancer are not the same stuff. lol
It was his mother. You don't listen!!!
HTM just summarized what happened to Benoit. The Cycle of doing one thing after another everyday caused him to go nuts and do what he did.
Sorry HTM, if you took REAL roids back in the day like you say you did, YOU got RIPPED OFF big time... You never showed any signs of one who took them or you did take them, but never trained in the gym like others did. But kudos for your honesty.
His mom wouldn't listen to him so "she isnt around anymore so."
Burn one!........or a Dozen!!!
AMERICA STRONG!!! STAY FREE!! LONG LIVE THE REPUBLIC!
There is no shame in taking steroids, I would probably take them if we knew more about potential long term side effects and under a Doctors supervision.
Only time I look down at a user is when they tell others that they can have a similar physique without them, in order to sell some bullshit supplement or workout program.
What a punk!
Htm was never a big muscly guy must of been shit steroids he was taking lol
This fella needs a hobby
