It's because this was in the early 2000's when he was in much better general health. It's a shame that most interviews that seem to get around are the later ones where his memory is failing or almost gone and is being interviewed by people that are apparently terrified of him and ask him rigid questions awkwardly. Therefore, a lot of people seem to hate him based on those clips. I've never met the man, and obviously he was always a gruff son of a bitch with no time for bullshit, but I like him. Yes, I've heard the things others have said about him.
Ole Anderson was one of my favorite wrestlers. When I was young he scared the crap out of me because he was so mean but I still wanted him to win. Thanks for all the good times, Ole.
after listening to ole Anderson's many interviews... I must say , he must be taken his med's..lol. he sounds like a normal person...not so dam angry and grumpy...love ole
His tee shirt is promoting an event from 2004. :( It's a shame because my first reaction on viewing this video was that Ole is finally mellowing with age.
Great story.. .His facts on Hayes are little off... Hayes managed in both AWA and NWA Mid Atlantic - He entered the WWF as an announcer only - and he was a great addition...I can still hear his laughter
See folks Ole isn't all butthole !!! Wrestlers and Fans hate on this man but it's without a doubt what he's done in the business paved the way and opened a lot of doors for guys like it or not and the proof of his contributions is the fact of the long career he's had ... Maybe he isn't the most pleasant of men BUT who says he has to be I understand why folks don't like foolishness and refuse to sugarcoat anything and that is a rare characteristic to find nowadays ... Being politically correct is turned this nation into a bunch of punks and puss with kids being bullied and honorable men being taken advantage of ... STAND UP AND SPEAK THE TRUTH OF YOUR FEELINGS SO YOUR LIFE CAN BE BETTER !!! Thanks ... GOD BLESS !!!
Ole is from the old school of professional wrestling where you had to be a actual tough guy to belong to the elite club of professional wrestlers. These days it's just roid-head pretty boys who can't cut a damn promo or create believable heat if their lives depended on it.
Say what you want about Ole, but he was so damned believable. Even when I knew wrestling was “entertainment”, His promos were the best and he is truly a legend and one of the best!!!
While I enjoyed this story immensely, my favorite Ole story is still about how Stu Hart used the same spatula to make pancakes as he did to clean up cat Shit...lol.
Ole would knock me out for this. Facially he looks like someone threw Superstar Graham, country music legend Johnny Paycheck, and Al Molinaro from "Happy Days" into a blender on Puree. And did Ole Anderson think that Alfred's Mother was related to Vince's Wife?B.W.
This video has to be from 15 or more years ago. Many of the common videos of Ole that circulate are from later when he got older and had various health issues (and memory issues).
For people wondering this is at least 2005 or earlier because Hayes died in 05. Thats why Ole didn't say the shits 25 times. He's way more pissy these days.
People need to sit down, shut up and listen to this man. Do it enough and new school wrestlers may learn something regarding how to do business, the right way
Even though its cool to see Ole all nice, I'm not going to fall for it. Remember the famous trap he set for Dusty Rhodes? Nice try Ole, I'm not buying it haha
He was a tough wrestler who lived his gimmick, I think he obviously made you believe he was really like that in real life. He was just another man no worse or better!
The guy is only bitter about "Black Sunday" and Jim Crockett killing his own company and Jim Herd. And all the sellouts who became cartoon characters in the WWF.
RIP Ole Anderson. Word has it that when Alfred Hayes met up with him at the Pearly Gates, he STILL asked how mother is!
This is a face turn, kids.
I must have somehow entered an alternate universe; one in which Ole doesn't say someone is the shits
Maybe he brought TP's.
He seems like a diff person in this shoot than the others I’ve seen. Much better mood here
Jason Voorheese 85mph lol

@@RunLikeAVillain Are his older interviews available anywhere?
Great story!!! Ole does a really great impression of Lord Al Hayes.
flagging this as the only video in existence showing the grumpy old man laughing lol
Ole Anderson was one of my favorite wrestlers. When I was young he scared the crap out of me because he was so mean but I still wanted him to win. Thanks for all the good times, Ole.
Ole likes someone!!!! I miss Lord Alfred and his accent "Promotional consideration paid for by the following.."
I actually heard him in my head when I read this. Thanks for the laugh brother
That was a really good Alfred Hayes impersonation.
Is Ole doing a face turn? Nice to see him like this.
😂💀
😂😂😂😂😂😂
If he likes you, he really likes you. If he doesn't like you, it's cuz you can't draw a fucking dime.
The turn you never thought you would see. As surprising as Bad News (Brown) Allen’s Calgary Face turn
Love listening to Ole talk and tell his stories. He was great inside and outside the ring.
Did I just see Ole Anderson...smile?
I am dying over Ole and his English accent with Al Hayes.
A real knee slapper
after listening to ole Anderson's many interviews... I must say , he must be taken his med's..lol. he sounds like a normal person...not so dam angry and grumpy...love ole
RIP Lord Alfred Hayes.
Damn Ole is in a good mood he must of got laid before this interview
Awesome story! Ole sounds great.
Love hearing Ole doing a British accent!
I thought it was pretty impressive ,...
He does a surprisingly decent posh English accent (I say that as an Englishman)
Where do you live where you hear that accent?
You can't be serious
@@SamFranI live near Kensington and believe me, that accent is still ubiquitous around here. Anywhere there is old money you will hear RP.
I love this miserable old grumpy S.O.B, he is a legend. I grew up watching him in the ring and booking he is HOF.
Good stuff ole seems to be in a great mood during this shoot
People didn't pay attention. Ole did bury someone. He buried mother.
Fukin hillarious comment!!
😂😂😂
His not lying about Atlanta airport you do walk a marathon to get around
This story indeed shows that Ole does have a heart in there somewhere, lol
That was a good impression! Lol. Just didn't expect it from Ole. Huh...
WHAT????? Ole Anderson actually saying something pleasant and kind about somebody other than himself?!!?!
This is amazing 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Oh dear,Ole actually has a little bit of humanity and sense of humour in him.
'Much respect 4 both Ole Anderson & "Lord" Alfred Hayes!!!! ;-) ' Loved the story & Ole's "Brit-voice" bits (LOL)!!!!
Wonderful! Thanks for posting.
Call a Dr. There is definitely something wrong. He doesn't seem pissed at all.
Ole is hilarious. Nice guy.
His tee shirt is promoting an event from 2004. :( It's a shame because my first reaction on viewing this video was that Ole is finally mellowing with age.
Great story.. .His facts on Hayes are little off... Hayes managed in both AWA and NWA Mid Atlantic - He entered the WWF as an announcer only - and he was a great addition...I can still hear his laughter
Lord Alfred, you are missed 😢
HAHAHAHA!!! Ah man. This just made my night!
A happy story from Ole... so Bizarre
Ole was a badass.
My favorite old bastard.
Holy crap. He could be funny. That lord Alfred Hayes imitation is funny
See folks Ole isn't all butthole !!! Wrestlers and Fans hate on this man but it's without a doubt what he's done in the business paved the way and opened a lot of doors for guys like it or not and the proof of his contributions is the fact of the long career he's had ...

Red Berry, VERY well put!!!! ;-)
Real men don't take shit!!!!!!!!!!!!
I like Ole... Most of those guys really weren't worth a shit!
Ole is from the old school of professional wrestling where you had to be a actual tough guy to belong to the elite club of professional wrestlers. These days it's just roid-head pretty boys who can't cut a damn promo or create believable heat if their lives depended on it.
Tinker Todd. Leave it to a Wrestling Encyclopedia like Ole Anderson to come up with a Pro Wrestler I have never heard of!B.W.
Say what you want about Ole, but he was so damned believable. Even when I knew wrestling was “entertainment”,
His promos were the best and he is truly a legend and one of the best!!!
Seemed like quite a show for those at the airport to have watched
Well done, Ole!!!!!
While I enjoyed this story immensely, my favorite Ole story is still about how Stu Hart used the same spatula to make pancakes as he did to clean up cat Shit...lol.
Darn good story!
First time I ever heard him laugh..
Even the grinch liked his dog
Great story Ole
The video cut off early. It stopped before Ole buried someone and called their work the shits. Please repost the entire video.
Great story..
LOL! Ole sounds like Alfred Hayes.
Sound like me telling story.
Ole prolly get same pills.
more ole pls
He almost sounds like Lord Alfred Hayes
Ole baby facing it up and he never said anybody was the shits once.
So AL wanted Ole to call Linda McMahon? 😂
In the 90s he was doing Gene Okerlund's job when he jumped to WCW
Ole? In a good mood? That must be a really comfortable couch.
Ole must be mellowing in his old age...
Funniest story I've ever heard
Ole would knock me out for this. Facially he looks like someone threw Superstar Graham, country music legend Johnny Paycheck, and Al Molinaro from "Happy Days" into a blender on Puree. And did Ole Anderson think that Alfred's Mother was related to Vince's Wife?B.W.

crippled up like some one's story telling acumen
My goodness he sounds completely different.
Ole in a semi-good mood? Is it possible?
That story was the shits...in a good way!
For people wondering this is at least 2005 or earlier because Hayes died in 05. Thats why Ole didn't say the shits 25 times. He's way more pissy these days.
I remember Tinker Todd.
English Ole kind of sounds like C3PO
Ole must've realized there's a better payoff being a face lol
Funny, good to see ole not so mean spirited.
😂😂😂😂
Where's the rest of this shoot? Year? Thanks!
People need to sit down, shut up and listen to this man. Do it enough and new school wrestlers may learn something regarding how to do business, the right way
Ole likes somebody... I’m scared
Hahaha!!
Why couldn't we see this side of Ole back in the day when he was kicking Dusty's ass . I would've hated him less
First time I’ve ever seen ole happy
Who is this guy and what has he done with Ole Anderson??
New comment, old video, but I think Hayes managed in AWA, but in WWE/WWF he was only an announcer, never a wrestling manager.
Different side of Ole
Tell me that Ole doesn't look and gesture like Ed O'Neil on Modern Family.
Is this the same Ole Anderson who almost killed the American Dream?
I would never know what a good sense of humor he has.
How old is this interview? Hayes died in 2005.
HawklordLI this is probably about 2 or 3 years before Hayes died
Ole is looking like Evad Sullivan 🐇🐰
When was this?
Even though its cool to see Ole all nice, I'm not going to fall for it. Remember the famous trap he set for Dusty Rhodes? Nice try Ole, I'm not buying it haha
He was a tough wrestler who lived his gimmick, I think he obviously made you believe he was really like that in real life. He was just another man no worse or better!
Is this shoot recent? Because Ole looks great here, in good health.
It looks from maybe 15 or so years ago.
Alfred Hayes died in 2005.
Very. It’s like a 3 disc set approx 2 hours per disc.
Muther................ .
Not as funny as the story of Lord Alfred whipping his crank around yelling "Come here Roddy" (Piper).
This has to be a really old interview .
The guy is only bitter about "Black Sunday" and Jim Crockett killing his own company and Jim Herd. And all the sellouts who became cartoon characters in the WWF.
Black Saturday....
T
Ole looks spry
Where's his eyeballs looks creepy looking
