On why he doesn’t like Vince Russo: “I just didn’t like his work. I’ve never been around him much. Of course, he was [Vince McMahon filtering Russo’s ideas].”
On his memories of Brian Knnobs and Jerry Sags: “Not really [being around them]. I remember telling Knobbs that if he kept acting the way he acted, somebody’s going to stick a knife in him.
