“Wrestlers just wanna throw my name out for the heck of it. I think we were all tough. You had to make the people believe in wrestling for us to make some money. For us to have all those angles on TV, and to bring them back for all this good stuff. Everybody was tough those days to make money and protect the business.”
“Wrestling — you don’t have to convince ME that it’s real. Convince the people, y’know? I mean, that’s what the ‘art’ of wrestling is. We all know it’s a work. So, man, LOOK like you’re taking my head off, but don’t really. “I’ll give you an example. King Haku. I would put this guy against anybody [in a real fight]. He could kill anybody — this guy...
Perr Saturn, after being asked who would win in a fight between The Barbarian, Meng, Scott Norton, Jim Duggan, Fit Finlay, Scott Steiner, Rick Steiner, and himself: "Meng. Nobody else would stand a chance. Not even a question. He could kill everyone without blinking, and there is nothing anyone could do about it."
“One time, we were in a rough part of St. Louis for a show. Everyone had been drinking, and a large fight broke out, which resulted in the police showing up. Meng had a few drinks but saw the fight break out, so he started trying to break it up. In the process, police thought he was part of the fight and maced him then handcuffed him. Meng was cuff...
“Meng is the toughest man — not just wrestler — I’ve ever met in my life. A fight once broke out in a bar, and Meng took his two fingers on his right hand, his index finger and trigger finger, and he reached into the guy’s mouth, and he broke off the guy’s bottom teeth. If I hadn’t been there and seen it himself, I wouldn’t believe it. “The only tw...
“One time, Meng fought off eight police officers. They shot him with mace, and he closed his eyes and sucked it in. He just opened his mouth and took a deep breath. I mean, some of the stuff he did was like, ‘What the hell?’ Scotty and I always thought we were tough guys, but that was before we met Meng.”
“There are three types of men in the world. There are tough men, there are wrestler-tough men, and then there’s Meng. He was in a completely different category than anyone else on the planet. There was one instance where a large cowboy was arguing with Meng, and he pushed the cowboy through two different sets of doors using only one hand.”
One of the most famous stories happened during his time as Haku in the WWF. Brutus Beefcake had gone to management and complained that Haku slapped him too hard during their match. When Haku found out, he walked straight to Beefcake’s locker room and grabbed him out of the shower. He started choking him and lifted him two feet in the air while ever...
“Meng was never fired from WCW because no one was brave enough to do it. On one particular day, Greg Gagne and I walked into the locker room and interrupted a conversation between Meng and Chris Candido, Chris Jericho, and Tammy Sytch. Meng immediately looked at the pair of us and said, "Hey! Apologize to my friends. I’m talking to them." The entir...
On a trip to Puerto Rico [in 1987], fellow wrestler Jesse Barr decided to kick dirt onto a man who was digging ditches. Meng was upset by it and told Barr he shouldn’t have done it. Barr decided to get in Meng’s face and argue with him, which turned out to be a bad idea. Meng grabbed him and popped his eyeball out of the socket. Some wrestlers clai...
