This was a great interview. He seems like a genuinely nice guy, it's not just an act with him, so that was nice to see as a fan. What impressed me was how wise he was. He accepts and appreciates life as it is.
Thank you.I watched mid south wrestling as a child. Hacksaw was a part of that,People(douchebags) like to hate on hacksaw buy you just have to listen to him to understand hacksaw may not be the greatest in some peoples eyes but hes been around....and seen much
Met Hacksaw at a minor league baseball game back in 2011. My buddy and I stood over at his table up in the concourse during the game, drank beer and talked about 90's WCW, etc. with him for several innings, and even got some sweet pics with him. BY FAR the most fan-friendly superstar I have ever met. I wish I could have him over for a BBQ or something sometime.

He has no illusions about how he should have been a great long term champ, like so many do. He knew he had a great career and is happy with that.
I second that @Devastator
He stayed married, made a living, paid for his kid's education, and has a lot of great memories. Hacksaw is the man.
Yes he is Phil very genuine
Real man
Yeah Hacksaw is a wrestler people can actually look up to in real life.
That's the difference between a Christian life and a worldly life. God is good 🙏
After watching so many interviews with people bashing their colleagues, Hacksaw is a breath of fresh air. A really classy guy who doesn't seem to hold grudges and has a great aura of positivity. Great interview!

He was my favorite when I was about 12. He's just the best good guy ever.
OMG!!! YESSS!!!! “Hacksaw” Jim Duggan!!! He’s one of my favorite wrestlers, my father, brother and I would literally scream “HOOOOOOO!!!!!” when he would come down to the squared circle.
Awesome interview, Hannibal!!!
Thank you 🙏
Hacksaw has always oozed coolness. I loved watching him back in the day. He and his 2x4 fired you up.
It's going to be a sad day when Hacksaw heads off into the sunset for the last time. He's always struck me as a genuinely good man in a world severely lacking in that department.
I’m literally binging on these interviews. I’m obsessed with the 80s wrestling scene!!! Especially seeing your favorite superstars sharing their stories… ❤️
I bumped into him in a restaurant and few years ago I'm staring at him like where do i know this guy from then I screamed it while he was eating with his wife they smiled I went over got a quick picture really nice guy!
Hacksaw seems to be genuinely a good person. Honest and very humble with the way he says things. He doesn't really talk crap about anyone. This interview is gold. All the best to you Mr. Duggan!
Carlos Mauricio Novella Hooooooooo
Man wrestlers give great interviews, Duggan is perfect example.
i like how much of a big smile he has when talking about jake getting better via ddp
Yep, some genuine affection there.
Love you Hacksaw, my kid brother and I just loved you when you came on TV in our country in 1988, really enjoyed your Hall of Fame Induction.... total class, beautiful family, God Bless ya Sir, thanks for the entertainment, excitement, enjoyment and inspiration to work out.
He deserved to have a championship
What the hell...he has aged well. He looks not much different than 30 years ago.
Lol he always looked old
He doesn't look old..he prob doesn't drink..that alcohol ages you quick
@@BigBoss-zi5ss He mentions that he was drinking before the Rourke incident.
@@thejmc4074 I meant drinking everyday heavy
Hacksaw is overlooked for being a tough guy, but in his prime he was one of the toughest guys ever in wrestling.
He was at his best in Mid South. Hard as nails.
@Sweepy57 Says the guy with 'Sweepy' as a handle...
@Sweepy57 lmao, i doubt he gives a fuck what you think, hes got money in the bank..
@Sweepy57 Like he said he has had a successful carrer, far from a perennial bum hope I didn't go over your head.
@Sweepy57 you have zero knowledge
I really believe that Hacksaw is damn good guy, and I am glad to see him doing pretty good!! Bless him!
Hacksaw is all class what a great guy great interview and I noticed he never really had a bad word to say about anybody
Yup! I always enjoy Hannibal's interviews, but he does try to rope guys in for "dirt" when he can, which of course is the shoot-interview business, but Duggan stayed kind, generous, and "that's not any of my business," the whole way through. Absolutely a real professional and class act in the old-school way!
Briefly met Hacksaw around 1990 at the Richfield Coliseum outside The Land. Total sweetheart of a man, and incredibly patient with fans. He will always be a favorite.
Dude, Devon, in almost every interview all of the wrestlers seem very comfortable with you. To me, that's a real cool talent to have bro.
Who knew Vince Russos dog had a Yt account?
really like this guy , real straight up, no bullsht and just loves what he does :)
I love Jim Duggan! A real down to earth guy. God Bless....
What an awesome guy! I need to take a page out his book. Love his positive vibrations
met him once at an independent show. Nice guy
When I was growing up I must admit I hated Duggan as a wrestler and a character-pretty much thought he was useless though of course I could see people especially kids loved him-however this interview is great and I am really impressed with how with it and well spoken he is today. Hats off to you Duggan-I now see you in a new light and it makes me happy to see how well you are doing!
He played the American play with genius.He grafted the character and had the physique to handle it.Thank you Jim for all you have done.Watch over you family as always...
Grew up watching him in the old Mid South, loved him even as a heal with the RatPack.
Thanks you Hannibal once again. You have great interviews, brother. Just like your Hillbilly Jim interview, that I watched this morning, this really took me back.
Thanks for listening
I had the fortune of meeting his parents when I was a kid at an Albany River Rats vs. Adirondack Red Wings AHL hockey game at the then Pepsi Arena. Adirondack was Glens Falls team and they were fans. At the time I was a huge wrestling fan and remember being just as excited as if he'd been there himself lol.
Can't believe I sat down through the entire interview. It's great. Great Job to the interviewer, you let Jim Duggan tell his stories without interrupting.
What a gentleman Hacksaw is! Great interview, one of my favorites in this channel!
i think this is the best interview ive seen. hacksaw didnt have a bad thing to say about anyone. except russo.
matthew prinz
Is there actually someone that has nice things to say about Russo though? LOL!
yes, there is one person who loves russo. russo. possibly russo's mom.
I like Russo. I liked what he did in WCW except for a few things.
Not gonna get too many likes with that comment Billy. It's hard to like/respect a guy when everyone who worked for him thinks he was an absolute piece of S***.
class act wrestler ,,loved growin up in this era with guys like this,,i remember when yokozuna crushed jim and i really felt crushed that that happened to duggan,,,,late eighties and early 90's was and even up to the attitude era,,what a great time for good ol wrastlin,,,never ever be like that again,,,just isnt even close to the same,,,great effin interview,,,i knew before watchin he was gonna have some classic stories
Awesome interview!! Raymond Rougeau,Jake Roberts and now Hacksaw Jim Duggan,outstanding!! Look forward to the Demolition one as well.
This was well worth an hour and 10 minutes of my day. Hacksaw Jim Duggan will always be one of the greatest performers in wrestling history. I think people that know him probably say I'm glad he's my friend not because he'll protect my back but just because he's a good man👍👍.
I met him and Jake the snake Roberts at the Japanese restaraunt in a Howard Johnsons in Revere,Ma. They were both really cool and more than happy to sign a few autographs. This was back in 1991 I believe.
This is no doubt one of my favorite interviews I’ve seen on this channel… thank you to Hacksaw and Hannibal!! Appreciate y’all!!
Boy what a pleasant guy you would never know from his characters which was awesome by the way
Hannibal is a great interviewer.
Old School he would have fit perfectly in Mid South.
I can imagine Hannibal & Dr. Death having some legendary battles.
Continued Success

I love Hacksaw Jim Duggan. Good guy. Gave so much to the wrestling business. He was solid in WWF and WCW.
I knew a guy who played football in High School. Casually mentioned that there was a guy from an opposing team who used to break 2X4’s over his own head to intimidate other teams. He didn’t mention if he wore a helmet or not while doing it.
Regardless, it worked.
After High School the guy went on to wrestle as Hacksaw Jim Duggan.
Loved Jim growing up, met him last year at a comic con and he was a hoot! So loud, chatty and friendly, got his autograph hope to meet him again
Listening to these old guy talk about the business and various other stories is quite fascinating. Many are so much different than I would've imagined watching them as a kid.
Thanks so much for the interview (and other interviews) Hannibal.....You really do an awesome job and ask great questions.......Love hearing Duggan's stories...Seems like a great guy....
Thanks for this interview. Classy guy. Loved him in the old UWF
HOOOOO
What a guy! I was lucky enough to see him wrestle back in 2007, and I loved him immediately.
ahhh childhood memories... Hacksaw always made me feel good when he came through the curtain.. I was all smiles every time I saw him wrestle :) good shoot and good wishes to him.
PARAGON COUNTRY CLUB same
Same. He is one of the best to ever do it and he seems super positive
What a legend, thanks for the interview was a great watch, always been a Jim Duggan fan since 1990 when I first watched WWF in the UK on Sky tv
Well. I sure came away with a different opinion about Jim Duggan than I used to have. He is is an intelligent, well-spoken, amiable guy who seems very genuine and humble. Thanks for an excellent interview and vid.
Great interview for a great talent HackSaw was a light hearted gimmick Jim had been perfecting over years in several of the territory's. Just a nice guy who looks at his career the way all should he had fun, made some money got to travel all over the world and has a positive attitude towards the Wrestling business and fellow Wrestlers. Regardless of what the so called experts have to say you know the experts who have never stepped foot in the ring yes regardless Hacksaw was OVER for years and the fans are never ever wrong Jim had a legendary career. When you are over for years in every territory you worked in thats a hall of fame career. Was Hacksaw the greatest ring technician no but did he put on a good match that again the fans were on there feet screaming for your match was great.
Gods speed Hacksaw continued success health & peace.
hacksaw is awesome!
mightykc73 👍🏽 Tuff guy!!!
Can't even remember one match Brett had in WCW? His time there was a disappointment but the Benoit/Hart match in memory of Owen is one of the all time greats and every fan truly watching then remembers.
I love Hacksaw. This is propably the 3rd shoot interview of his I listened to - but he is always entertaining and such a nice guy!
What a great guy!
Thanks for the upload........tough guy!!!!
Thanks for the upload, and special thanks to Mr. Duggan for his time.
I was never a fan of Jim Dugan, but this is a great interview.
Hannibal you are the best-of-the-best interviewer on UA-cam. Always great questions and you are always so thoughtful and well informed. Really great job!
Thanks for listening
Amazing interview! Thanks so much for posting these Devon.
I had me a Hacksaw action figure back in the good ol days. Loved that he came with his 2x4
Prolly the best shoot I've seen..no hatin or reason to try and get heat decades later.. for the most part had good things to say about everybody and when it came to a situation where he had a problem with somebody he just told what the issue was with no extras on it.. very entertaining!! This man is solid as well as a ICON!!! He never was my favorite or anything but ya just had to appreciate it!! USA!! USA!! USA!!!
I never loved hacksaw neither i hated him he was like ok ,another mid card wrestler for me but lately i'm watching some shoots and interviews of him and i must say what A-fuckin' awesome guy!Great talker and a gentleman!Cheers big jim!
Hacksaw was one of my favourites back in the day. Good to see he still has the same positive energy
Watched again this is sooo good top work Hannibal and so long ago
thanks for the great interviews
Jim is one of the coolest people ever met in the business. Such a great, fun person to be around. I did a show with him at the Ocean City Maryland convention center.Such a great night.
Bounced on my boy's big ole set to this. Great job.
most respect for Jim Duggan
I met Jim at the only Con Oklahoma City had. He was not listed so when I heard his, "Hooo", I found him quickly. Great guy who I prayed for during his cancer scare. Hope he is in the best of health now and enjoying life to the full.
one of the most entertaining shoots, Duggan seems like a real cool guy.
HOooo~! My father is born in 1953 like duggan, thankyou for your dedication :)
Wish he had never gotten old! One of my favorite wrestlers of all time! Great preformers of all time! Especially of his era
gotta love jim! my fav wrestler since I was a kid
Man, he would have been so fun at a party back in the day !
I loved hacksaw as a kid. Me and my cousins. Great interview.
Hacksaw is without question the nicest wrestler you'll ever meet. Such an outstanding person. Met him twice and he's amazing.
Dude looks exactly the same!! Hoooo!!!!
You can tell Jim is a great guy!
Great Guy and such a fan favourite!
Seen him wrestle twice in the early 90s in Scotland, he was soo over with the fans everyone loved him. HOOOOOO
GREAT interview! He seems really cool! I always enjoyed watching him & Dusty back in the day.
We need more videos about this great wrestler, and a seemingly great guy all around.
Great interview!
Hacksaw is a really good guy and down to earth. I met him and Road Warrior Animal at a GNC promotional appearance. Both were friendly, I spoke to them for about 5 minutes, really cool guys to talk to.
my favorite wrestler ever ..hard belive im now 43
Reading through these comments and most say the same thing I want to, Jim seems like a really good man, no complaining or speculation about his co-workers. He just comes off as an awesome dude.
He was never my favourite but he brought a lot of flavour to the scene and was great at keeping things moving during a match, even when there was no action occurring. Lots of fun.
Hacksaw Jim Duggan, an excellent guy
Hacksaw seems like such a nice man. Great sense of humor. Spoke well of all other wrestlers. I'd love to meet him. Legitimately good person.
Great Interview! Tough Guy! Grew up watchin you kick everybody’s ass!! Hooooooo!!!🇺🇸😎
great interview!
Great guy. Will never forget how he came out with that 2 by 4 when george steele was wresling macho man , great entertainer...
Super
Hacksaw Jim was definitely one of my favourites
All the best big fella from🇬🇧
My Lord, I've always loved Hacksaw, but I I love how straight up he is. My new hero
Hoooooooooooo! Jim Duggan looks great and what a coooool guy. from New Zealand fan. I'm 48 now and it's freaky coz...... 30 years doesn't seem that long ago. glad he had a great career and is still around.
Great interview! All power to Jim Duggan.
Top shoot. Hacksaw is a genuine blue collar straight talking nice guy.
One of my all time favorites.
Great job!
old Jim Duggan looking good
JCG JCG so let me get this right, u think he's a good looking man???
whos the smart guy or tough guy? hooooooooo.A man who wrestles,puts in the time,takes his shots.....and then has the common sense to stay with his family,wreck his body daily to put his two daughters through school,and still survive.would love to hear his wife or daughters explain how their husband and father gave all to sustain his family,.....then i ask you....whos a toughguy?
Hacksaw, very candid, open and honest. I enjoyed his stories and opinions on today's wrestling ( not sports entertainment, yes it's still considered wrestling to some people). I miss the good old days of real wrestling not this new era of runway models, flashy entrances that take 20 minutes for a match to start ( just get in the ring already). Too much talk and not enough wrestling. So it was nice to go down memory lane with Duggan, he looks like he can still throw people around. I hope to see more of the real "wrestlers" talking old school.
*Come on dude show us the big 2 by 4. You just ain't the same without it. A True Beast, Athlete and Sportsman. It was a great time growing up in America brother, thank you for The Memories.*
He was my favorite when i was a kid. Man i miss my dad.
Legend. Mid-South Wrestling! I remember him saving Jake the Snake from the new bad guys and trusting each other enough to form a tag team. Was awesome! Golden age. His catch phrase was calling people “ Tough Guy!”
I grew up in OKLAHOMA and the Mid-South was the big wrestling show we watch every time it was on HACKSAW" DEBIASE ' Dr. DEATH 'ONE MAN GANG 'JAKE THE SNAKE 'THE MISSING LINK 'ROCK-N-ROLL EXSPRESS' THE ROAD WARRIORS THEM WERE THE DAYS AND MANY MORE GREATS I COULD GO ON FOR HALF THE NIGHT....THANK ALL YOU GUYS YOU WERE ALL AWESOME....
Met him at a surprise signing at a Hyvee in Cedar Rapids. Was waiting in line and he says something to the effect of “gimme an oohhhhh” I yelled super loud and he had the security bring me to the front of the line. Signed my picture of him, gave me a grey Surge t-shirt that he signed, n let me sit w him for pics n to talk for like 15-20 min. Awesome guy. I still have all the stuff he signed.
