 Actually I'm doing it because it helps promote my book. I work Monday through Friday... I don't need to go wrestle definitely, but it does help promote my book and it gets me out there to an audience that cannot be denied. Plus I found that I love it. Now I did something wrong, you see all my caps and gowns, I'd given away to charity. All my trunks, I've given away to charity. I have no boots. I had decided that I'd already wrestled my last match. I have to admit, I'd like to apologize to anybody who saw me in January, that I did wrestle but I was not properly supported. |
| Actually I saw a match between Tommy Billington, The Dynamite Kid, versus Tiger Mask in Madison Square Garden . And Vince McMahon was the MC of the match, he was the announcer. And I got ahold of the tape and I saw him do so many fantastic things that I'd never even dreamed of, Tiger Mask, and actually Dynamite Kid, I might as well say it, between that time and the time I got to the WWF, Dynamite Kid had put some of those moves away because he was already crippled. You can't take that many chances with your body and he was accident prone, and now he's a complete cripple... and he's bitter and mean, and Harry (Smith) filled me in on it. It's a sad thing. I loved the guy, you know? I loved Davey Boy and him. You couldn't possibly not like those guys. The first time I met Davey Boy, he said, 'Hey you wanna see a picture of Bret Hart?' and he took out an 8x10 and around Bret Hart's face he had cut out a hole and he had stuck in his genitals. And I thought, how can you not like a guy like that, that's hilarious. There's a lot of times in the dressing room you're bored to death, you know? You couldn't be bored with The Dynamite Kid and Davey Boy Smith, they were competing for who could hold court. But anyway the thing is, I didn't invent any of those moves. I stole them from Tiger Mask, and Tiger Mask had a short career so I got the credit for it. ... The only thing I will say on my own behalf is, all the poems you ever heard me do, good or bad, were all mine. I plagiarized nothing and nobody. |
| But see I hung in there, I persevered, and what's the end of the story? I'm healthy, wealthy and free. How many wrestlers, 50-years-old are even alive? |
| First of all, I disagree with the question. How many people do you know that were on NBC and defeated Hulk Hogan? |
| I am amazing, |
| I don't remember, |
| I'm a Canadian born American citizen, |
| I'm The Genius, full of glory and renown, |
| I officially started wrestling on June 6, 1973, |
| If my brother were here he'd agree, what a fantastic family we come from. |
| If you didn't agree with me, I was gonna hang up on you, |
| It was unintentional, Andre headbutted me right in the head, ... He always liked me and he was really sorry about it, but that's what happened. He was a very strong guy. And his head is like three heads... my head is just like one and a half. Maybe he was trying too hard. But I never begrudged him for it, the poor guy was in so much pain. I wrestled him in 1975 when he was excellent. And then I saw him again in 1985 and he was a physical wreck. And it's very well documented that the last few years of his life were miserable. And you know what the greatest thing in his life was? |
| June of '85, changed life for the better. |
| Let me stop you right there. Ten arrests, no convictions, I've got a perfect record. |
| No that was like the fifth time. The first time was when I was on TNT before that. The second time I was on TNT, I told them that I had a poem for Lord Alfred Hayes. Now it's been taken off the WWE website but I managed to get it on the LannyPoffo.com website. |
