I hope no one mentioned Vader since HBK made him cry and Shamrock shoved his head in a toilet.

you lose all credibility when you say Gotch. Kalisto kicked his ass for Christ's sake.Wahoo, Black Jack Mulligan, Harley. All tough as nails.
Going way back, John Pesek, Ad Santel, Billy Riley, Bert Assirati.
Gene Lebell was something special.( Ask Bearcat Wright, if you could.)
Billy Robinson of course, ( he always disputed the Peter Maivia story, saying it ended the opposite if the accepted lore.)
Karl Gotch.
As alluded earlier it depends on definition of toughness.

If we're going back that far, might as well throw Stu Harts name in there as well.Wahoo, Black Jack Mulligan, Harley. All tough as nails.

Does everyone know the story about Scott Steiner tying a jobber to a table backstage and ramming a pencil up it's ass?
Stu wasn't a tough guy or much of a shooter. He knew holds thoughGreat call on Mad Dog! As MMA became more popular in the 90s, wrestlers of the 60s and 70s would say more than anyone elae that Mad Dog would have done the best in MMA.
Big fan of Stu Hart as a trainer of catch and promoter but never thought of him as a "tough" guy.
