Steven Seagal’s reputation as a trained and professional martial artist is well known in the industry, and despite his prolific teachings and self-promotion regarding his mastery over the subject, there has been more than one incident where he was quite easily put down by others, insomuch that he even soiled himself once after directly challenging the great Gene LeBell about being an expert at escaping the chokehold. Steven Seagal Faked His Way Through Hollywood However, as would become a common trend with the actor, there was never a showdown or a fight, despite his insistence on being able to take on several fighters at once.Īpparently, Seagal apologized to Bob Wall years later when the pair came across each other under less threatening circumstances. Banding together the ‘Dirty Dozen’ comprising such pro champions of kickboxing and karate like, Benny Urquidez, Howard Jackson, and Bill Wallace, Wall made a show on magazine covers and advertised his group in order to snag Seagal’s attention. Angered and riled up into a furor, the latter planned an elaborate revenge by humiliating the Under Siege actor. See more of the subtle dynamics that transpire in this predator-facing paradigm shift!

They all leave and go to another friend’s house. She invites friends over and they confirm the same fears that she has over being eaten by Wolfie.
