On the Issac Yankem gimmick: “I loved the Dentist gimmick man. I knew that it wasn’t a gimmick that would go to the top, you know, it was a haha gimmick. Yeah. You know, and that was a Pat Patterson thing there, you know, Pat Patterson liked to have haha gimmicks, I knew his work was solid. Later on, I would even go to Mexico with him as a Fake Diesel. And we spent time down there together. I just told him, I said, brother, just keep doing what you’re doing. You’ll get your shot sooner or later.”

On the Curtain Call incident: “Oh my God, man. He made everybody sick. I love those guys to death, but man, you f**king c**k suckers, That was f**ked up. That was f**ked up. Did you see Bruno Sammartino doing that? Yeah. Everybody was hot about that. I remember Freddy Blasey just f**king losing it in the locker room.”
