There was an actual lawsuit about the nose incident. Brent Cooper is the guy's name and there are newspaper clippings of news of the lawsuit online. I saw a clipping of it but am unable to find it, but if you google Brent Cooper Haku Lawsuit you'll see previews of the article (otherwise you gotta pay)I'm sure Haku did get into bar fights like most wrestlers did, but all those stories about him biting off noses and ripping out eyeballs and all that other stuff sounds like bullshit to me. Pretty sure the cops would have gotten involved if actual maiming happened even in bumfuck nowhere towns or some angry yokel would have taken out a gun and shot him. I might just be getting worked by wrestlers telling tall tales, though.
The 1980s and 90s were different and bar fights didn't have the hoopla they do now days. There were no smartphones then and more shit would happen.
Not saying all of it is true, like I am pretty sure that Haku couldn't beat a prime Lesnar in a street fight, but the nose incident did happen
