Thanks for this interesting (albeit short) shoot interview. Harley was one of my favorite wrestlers growing up
+Scott Breon We will hopefully get to ask Mr. Race more questions in the future.
Harley Race was in a Nursing Home that I worked for.I was his Driver for his doctor appointments.He ALWAYS Thanked me for my Kindness and NEVER did I hear him say a Bad Thing about No-Body.It was an HONOR to become his Friend.
Liar
That’s funny because he lived with his girlfriend on the outskirts of Troy, MO.
I met him a few times at his arena right next door to the plant I work at.
He wasn’t in a nursing home and his girlfriend or his son, Leland, drove him everywhere.
When was Harley Race is a nursing home? I'm a bit of a fan and I have heard interviews with friends and family... What state was this in
Madame Feast', he wasn’t. OP is telling stories.
Harley lived out his final years in Troy, MO, and ran his promotion out of there.
@@dr.floridamanphd He was only in a nursing home for a short while.I am not a Liar.Was his girlfriend named Rose? It was at the time.AND his son JASON can verify who I AM.With Due Respect...Have a Blessed Day Florida Man.
Harley's voice is slow, deep and deliberate. It made his promos really stand out and sound authentic. It didn't hurt that he was a tough guy outside the ring.
U hit the nail on the head here......
Never backed down or lost a fight to anyone, he gave the business a authenticity it has long since been lacking.
It's always refreshing to hear someone who knows they have nothing to prove.
What a great interview! Harley Race is the epitome of a champion. He is a class act.
How can anybody not like and respect Harley race he had the bad car accident when he was young they told him that he wouldn't wrestle any more and he proved them wrong and had a great career after that a true . legend wrestler
I saw Harley on TV for the first time in 1981 as a 7 year old ..by that point Harley was a seasoned veteran..looked past his prime compared to they younger guys...I could tell even as a kid that Harley was a tough customer. he just had something about him that he was not to be messed with inside or out of the ring
I met Harley shortly before this interview happened ( 2014 event ) He was in a wheelchair at the time, yet every bit a man with a man's handshake. I often hear stories about Harley being tough, and let me just tell ya - I believe every story. #RIPHarley #Respect
He never left that wheelchair.
He had multiple hip, knee, and back surgeries that made it difficult for him to walk.
Wow. The man is a class act. If he doesn't have anything positive to say, he won't go there. Respect.
the wwe needs to film a documentary on this man. a d it needs to be done with the care like they did on dusty Rhodes story
There needs to be such a documentary because I would buy it.
Highspots has something like that. HARLEY RACE - THE GREATEST WRESTLER ON GODS GREEN EARTH DVD-R SET www.highspots.com/p/race-great.html
Buy it from his website.

Living Legend HARLEY RACE!!! Respect the legend!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I totally agree God Bless Mr. Race
Dory Funk Jr , Bruno Sammartino , and Verne Gagne were the three champions the year I was born but the first man I ever knew as the World Champion was Harley Race . He gave an aire of an intelligent shark .I remember thinking that no matter how phony some of the local talent may have seemed , Harley Race was dangerous . I was hooked .
I just read his book recently, King of the Ring. Good Read. God Bless You Harley. RIP King 🤴 👍
He was very talented- the only thing he didn’t have is speed.
The KING !!!!! Thank s Harley Race still watch the old reels you were great
Thank you for doing this interview. This is so valuable considering that we are losing so many of our true pioneers and wrestling legends. Rest easy, Harley Race. One of the greatest NWA Champions if not THE Greatest (debatably.)
Probly the greatest pro wrestler that ever laced up a pair of boots! RIP my friend......
I like the way he handle him self in style of his own the way he took his time while beating the hell out of you like it was a enjoyment
A legend...true class...makes perfect sense why he doesnt go deep with his answers
RIP KING HARLEY RACE!
Dude was a genuine bad-ass!
*May he R.I.P.*
*Never underestimate a Missouri boy*
I Love Harley Race! He is my Favorite Wrestler of all time! 8 Times NWA World Champion!
RIP race was a one of a kind wrestler. Heaven needed a true tough guy. He will be missed
Mr Race was a legend. It's nice to hear him give respect to other wrestlers in this interview. Sounds like a guy that didn't kiss and tell so to speak. Lol
Rest in peace Harley.
I always get the sense that Harley is going to take his best stories with him when the day finally comes . Probably out of loyalty and a sense of professionalism .
Harley Race in my view is both a class act and the Greatest Wrestler of All Time. I am biased tho, Harley Race and myself are both from Missouri. I believe that mainly because in my view he elevated both the NWA and Pro Wrestling when Pro Wrestling was way down in popularity (like today), and he elevated the NWA World Championship, and then gave rise to both Dusty Rhodes, and later Ric Flair and they elevated everything in Pro Wrestling from there. I know later Vince McMahon, Hulk Hogan, WWE and later the Attitude era explosion of Pro Wrestling popularity, but in my view it all started with Harley Race and his career with the NWA, and also later on for Harley in both the WWF at the time and AWA. He is truly a Legend. #RIPHarleyRace
A man's man! Speedy Recovery Harley Race!
Harley is the man
What surprises me is how Harley Race didn't really have very much to say about Ric Flair but if you hear Flair talk about Race he acts like Harley hung the moon or something.
race, Brody, hansen, haku, Andre, Blackman, vader, shamrock, saggs, regal, Dave fit Finley R just some of the real badasses........also arn, barbarian, rude, hawk and animal, slater, Bart gunn. etc
Harley's the real deal all the way. They don't make them like him anymore :-) Cool. Model rep for the entire business.
His promos would scare the hell outta ya
Harly race is probably the number one wrestler of all time
What a true gentleman.
Harley was a bona fide Bad A&& back in the day.
I heard on Ric Flair's recent podcast that Harley is in a nursing home now. Any word on how he is doing Devon? We met Harley at WM30 last year in New Orleans (completely by dumb luck surprisingly). He was very nice. Poor guy was in a wheelchair and looked like he was in a lot of pain. We met tons of superstars old and new that entire weekend, but Harley Race was the hardest one to not mark out in front of. I hope he is doing okay. ///
+BeerIsTheTrick I do not know if that is true or not. He is having a lot of trouble with his hips and is in a wheelchair but I believe he told me that he would be getting another operation to attempt to correct the problem. He is a great person.
THE HANNIBAL TV
Stepehen A Veve
He might be Quint from Jaws.. LOL
Good comparison.
NacheMan lol... Yes ..." Mr Hopper get out on the damn jib
yes! race always did remind me of quint glad I am.not the only one to make that comparison!!
Harley race is the only other man that "DEMANDED" respect from ANDRE THE GIANT (HAKU)...
this guy resembled my long gone grandad to a T. same demeaner, everything. ask him a dumb question and he will let you know with his eyes, that he has no time for them and you should know better before you decide to cross him either. for real, this guy and my grandad.... you don't mess with them lol.
Rest in paradise Harley race
Race seemed very guarded in his responses. Wonder what he was concerned about?
Rip King Harley 😪😥....
R.I.P. TO KING HARLEY RACE , WAY BEFORE MY TIME BUT MY LOVE FOR PRO WRESTLING LED ME 2 RESEARCHING THE CARRER OF ONE HARLEY RACE , AND STORIES FROM ALL SORTS OF WRESTLERS BACK THEN ALL SAY THAT HARLEY WAS A LEGIT BAD ASS , COULD SHOOT FIGHT OR WORK WITH THE GREATEST OF ALL TIMES , INCLUDING SCARING THE HELL OUT OF HOGAN AND MANY OTHERS. APPARENTLY AS THE STORIES GO , ALL THE TIME PEOPLE WOULD CALL HIM OUT IN PUBLIC AND CHALANGE HIM 2 REAL FIGHTS CLAIMING THAT WRESTLING WAS 100 PERCENT FAKE. HE HAD TO "PROTECT THE BUSSNIESS " AS N.W.A. WORLD CHAMPION AND BEAT THE HELL OUT OF MANY " TOUGH GUYS" WHO TRIED TO SHOW THERE ASS TO THE KING AND APPARENTLY HE WOULD BEAT THERE ASS AN STRETCH EM OUT REAL GOD. REST IN PARADISE 2 A MOUNT RUSHMORE AND PILLIAR OF A BUSSNIESS THAT I LOVE AND HAVE HUGE AMOUNTS OF PASSION FOR
RIP Harley
long live the king
I'm not trying to be a hero or anything, but I'd think that Curtis Axel is probably his most famous talent to come out of there. Not that he's done anything lately. He is a former Intercontinental Champion, and did beat HHH twice I believe. Just a meaningless opinion from another guy. Great interview.
Was Harley smoking during the interview ? If so, would anyone dare tell him not to ? lol.
#BadAss
would have loved an in depth interview about his time with the zbyszko brothers in missouri. the older one's prime was the first decade of the 20th century. now harley's gone & that history disappears with him
Tough that he couldn't remember that he beat Ric Flair for the title record at the time.
RIP.
I wish his book had been longer, or there was a second book. I think in this interview he tried to put professional wrestling in the best light. Many shoot interviews are about sex, drugs and bad behavior.
This has to be one of the shortest "full" interviews you've posted. It seems like Harley Race is a man of few words and not much into being interviewed.
+John Eriksen (Hypersleep) We will hopefully interview him more in depth down the road but yes he is not one to give long detailed answers. Great guy however.
+tysman621 with harley
+John Eriksen (Hypersleep) He s a man of few words but he says a lot without needing a lot of words. What he does say is very meaningful and interesting. Also, Harley used to drink a lot and now I think he has either quit drinking completely or rarely drinks. If you were to see a Harley interview when he has a few drinks in him, I bet he would give longer, more detailed answers and probably be more entertaining. He is a man who has mellowed a lot with age. He's still tough man though - one you wouldn't want to anger. In his prime he was maybe the toughest man in all of wrestling. Flair says Harley was the toughest man he ever faced and Flair wrestled men such as Terry Funk, Dory Funk Jr, Jack Brisco, Hansen, Brody, Wahoo, Blackjack Mulligan, Kurt Angle, Goldberg, and Brock Lesnar.
@@TheHannibalTV Shame this never happened... RIP Harley
KAY FKN FABE RIGHT HERE BABY RIP TO THE BEST TO EVER DO IT
How can u not respect this man...he's getting so old thou sucks
Those are some awesome birth marks! He doesn't have any tattoos! Y'all crazy!
what are the tattoos Harley has on his arms?
MAN ..it sucks when we get OLD...
Getting old is an honor and a blessing.
Harley was annoyed by some questions and there was some akward silence.
Arn Anderson said it perfectly. The only 2 men he fears in life.
1. Harley Race
2. Lanny Poffo
@@spongebobsquarepants3990 The only 2 men in the world that Andre the Giant feared were Haku and Harley Race.
I said it was a head but inside the ro5
Harley still smokes??
As of the time of this interview yes and that was 2015 I believe.
WTF Harley we care we want to hear those stories, that's kind of why you're being interviewed
Steve What no doubt!
Hardly definitely didn't seem like he wanted to "put out" for this interview. Looks like he was in a bad mood that day?
is Harley Race in a wheelchair? poor guy, I always have more respect for Legend's like this greats of the Ring
he's not like wheelchair bound but he does require one, i read a report that he has a steel rod in his back.
No doubt Harley will go down as one of the Greatest. With that said, I was only familiar with his work as "The King". His stuff in the 70s was before my time. I just don't like him brushing off all the behind the scenes questions. It looks like hes trying to kayfabe.
REQUIESCAT in PACE Harley Race. One of the last of the Great Ones.
Love Harley but he is definitely not the man to do a shoot interview. He was old school till the end. He never really talks out of school. I definitely respect that but it makes a lousy shoot interview.
