I know he was backstage at a WWE show, this might have been it. It was recent, during the HBK-Vince feud, explaining Vince's gear

Does anyone else here hate how Vince is such a dick but he tries to put off such a good image of him everywhere?

I actually believe that Vince gets a bad rap as he has done some amazing selfless things for people over the years (look at all the money he flat out just gave to Flair, how he legitimately was scared for Mick Foley, paying for Percy Pringle's gastric bypass [which Percy admits saved his life], paying for Sean Waltman to go to drug rehab even though he wasn't even on the roster, amongst other things including that for the most part he will always give people second chances). He just does what he does because he thinks it will help his product even more. The man's not perfect, but he is a good human being when you get right down to it. |

Yes, Hayabusa is that awesome.

All the people that are released by WWE (moreso recently) or leave have nothing but good to say for the man. Steph...not so much and Ace.....none good at all. You'd be hard pressed to find someone who has worked for Vince McMahon who dislikes him. (besides the obvious few)
As for the pic, Hayabusa was visting several friends backstage. FMW and ECW had a working relationship from 98-01 so he knows guys like RVD, Sabu, Dreamer and others.
God I hope he can have one more match. A bit selfish but it would be awesome. His goal is to stand in a wrestling ring without any aid in front of a crowd just once more.

I've heard about this meeting but if that's Hayabusa, he looks VERY small now.

As much I love Hayabusa...I think he shouldn´t work another match, for his own sake. I mean, just look at him...Now take a look at him before the acident. This makes me so sad...My favorite wrestler, and one of my favorites human beings suffered so much from this accident.
At least I heard he is trying new things, like a singing album.

I missed out on a chance recently to meet Hayabusa and I'm still kicking myself for missing out as I would just like to go in front of him and give him a nice "I'm not worthy!" And it's true that just about everybody with very few exception has bad things to say about Vince. It's usually along the vein of that he's just lost his touch, but that most agree he's a great guy. |

It wouldn't have been so bad if the reason I had to miss the oppurtunity happened, but some person that will remain unnamed forgot to follow through and I was left in the cold...not meeting one of my favorite wrestlers. |

Hayabusa was such a great wrestler. It sucks so bad that his careeer was ended so soon. He could have been so much bigger.

He is a legend to me. Have you read the history of Hayabusa life? His feuds? What he did to entetrein people?
He even refused a Lyger´s job ofter just he could stay in FMW.

On the subject of Vince as a person, I think Vince is one of the more screwed up people out there right now; he's done some awful, terrible things, and you get the feeling sometimes that he could care less that he did, and yet there seems to be a part of him that genuinely wants to be a good person, and sometimes appears to do amazingly selfless things for various wrestlers.
From most accounts, he had a very strange upbringing (going from dirt poor to heir-to-an-empire pretty damn quickly), so maybe that played a role, but I can't think of too many other people who swing so regularly from "evil sonofa***ch" to "kind hearted giver" off the top of my head.
As for Hayabusa, it'd be great to just see him on his feet again, even just to deliver a promo saying "I can beat this, so you could all beat anything the world throws in front of you."
