10 Times Wrestlers Got Into Real Life Bar Fights
6. Rick Steiner, Rick Rude, Curt Hennig, and Haku In The St. Louis Showdown
Samoan legend and former WWE Tag Team Champion Haku has been in several bar fights over the years, and Hall of Famer Rick Steiner recalled one such incident during an interview with Hannibal TV. The incident occurred at a bar in St. Louis where Steiner was drinking with fellow wrestlers Curt Hennig, Rick Rude, and Haku.
He recalled a few US Marines walking up to him and asking if they were hanging with Haku, who they thought was black. Steiner warned the Marines that Haku was not black and told them to stay away from him or else they were going to have a really bad night. But being the supremacists and pretentious they were, the Marines didn't listen to Steiner's advice and started messing with Haku.
Steiner stated that Haku kicked one of them in the throat, and before things could escalate, he, Hennig, and Rick Rude joined the fight and took the Marines out within a few minutes. He recalled Rick Rude taking down two of them and that the fight was over before things could spiral out of control.
