John Stanley "Stan" Hansen II (August 29, 1949) is an American former professional wrestler. Hansen is renowned for his stiff wrestling style, which he attributes to his poor eyesight. He is also known for his gimmick as a loud, violent cowboy who wanted to fight everybody, which he further emphasized by appearing in interviews with a cowboy hat, leather vest and bullrope while often chewing on tobacco. Considered to be among the most successful and popular gaijins in professional wrestling history, Hansen became more well known and revered in Japan than in his native United States. Despite this, Hansen still found championship success in both countries. On March 21, 2016, WWE announced that Hanson will be inducted into the WWE Hall Of Fame class of 2016.
