WWE Hall of Famer Jake Roberts recently revealed details surrounding an infamous bar brawl involving Haku.
Wrestling legend Haku has long been revered as one of the most formidable figures in the industry, with a reputation that precedes him as one of the toughest men to have graced the wrestling world. Known for his involvement in numerous bar fights during the early stages of his career, Haku’s exploits have garnered both admiration and shock from his peers.
On a recent episode of The Snake Pit, Jake Roberts recounted an incident involving Haku, shedding light on the extent of his ferocity. The conversation initially revolved around the rivalry between Haku and Harley Race, with Roberts emphatically asserting that in any real altercation, Haku would have emerged victorious over Race. This discussion then led to Roberts recalling a gruesome bar incident he bore witness to.
Roberts vividly described the event in which Haku bit off a man’s nose, stating:
I was there! I witnessed it! I got a beer. F**k, I had to have a beer after that s**t.
He went on to recount the sheer brutality of the act, humorously remarking:
He bit it off, man, there was just two holes there. He bit the f**king nose off! I nose you’re in trouble! Teach you to be nosey!
Despite the gravity of the situation, Roberts managed to find levity in the aftermath of the shocking occurrence. The incident in question occurred in 1989 at an airport bar in Baltimore, Maryland, leaving an indelible mark on all those present.
