00:04:27.640 When I woke up, my eyes were super dry.

00:04:29.340 Oh, Visine. 1.00

00:04:30.940 This is you.

00:04:32.120 Headphones are optional.

00:04:33.740 Oh, really?

00:04:34.280 Yeah.

00:04:34.480 I'd recommend him.

00:04:35.400 But I won't recommend anything to you, sir.

00:04:37.620 You can just do anything you want to.

00:04:39.920 In trouble.

00:04:42.040 No, I know.

00:04:42.920 I got him off the streets of Connecticut.

00:04:44.080 I'm sitting there half asleep last night.

00:04:46.560 He walks by.

00:04:47.140 I go, 11 o'clock tomorrow.

00:04:48.740 I was like.

00:04:49.120 Him?

00:04:49.580 Him?

00:04:50.200 Yeah, this one right here. 1.00

00:04:51.920 Get your ass back over here. 1.00

00:04:53.420 Yo, what? 1.00

00:04:54.420 I did.

00:04:55.420 That was funny.

00:04:56.220 That's what I said.

00:04:57.120 My wife goes, who's that?

00:04:58.120 I don't really know.

00:04:58.920 He goes, 11 o'clock, I'm not going nowhere till 11 o'clock.

00:05:02.920 That's Mike Malak, but you call him.

00:05:04.820 That depends on what time we get to bed, man.

00:05:06.320 That's right.

00:05:06.820 Are you comfortable with this pillow behind you?

00:05:08.720 You want me to move that?

00:05:09.620 Yeah, grab the thing out of there, bro.

00:05:11.820 There you go.

00:05:13.520 Thank you.

00:05:14.520 This feels.

00:05:15.720 Did you go to bed last night?

00:05:17.620 Yeah, I laid down about 3.30.

00:05:20.720 Dude, that's what I say to me.

00:05:23.600 Yeah, but- Yeah, we've been running, man, I think.

00:05:28.640 Bo, where the hell were we, Ozarks?

00:05:32.080 Yeah, from the convention to the lake of the Ozarks to-

00:05:37.480 Yeah, I think the first night we had like two hours sleep.

00:05:39.700 You're just not sleeping?

00:05:41.820 This is my wife, Sky.

00:05:42.660 I don't know if you guys met.

00:05:43.520 Yes, Sky.

00:05:44.080 Okay.

00:05:44.760 Yep. I'm sorry, I'm just not waking up.

00:05:46.820 Hulk, do you need sleep?

00:05:48.580 God, yeah, bro.

00:05:50.080 If I don't, man, my back and everything.

00:05:52.120 I start bleeding?

00:05:53.700 Yeah, no, I've had like in the last, are we going, are we rolling?

00:05:57.580 Yeah, yeah, yeah, we're starting, yeah.

00:05:59.840 You guys tell me when.

00:06:00.940 No, it's real casual, real casual stuff.

00:06:03.840 This ain't Tucker Carlson, to say the least.

00:06:07.080 No, I've had like 25 surgeries in the last ten years.

00:06:10.320 That's a- Yeah, ten back surgeries.

00:06:13.620 Nobody told me that stuff was fake, man.

00:06:15.780 No, no.

00:06:18.180 No, but ten back surgeries, both knees, both hips replaced, shoulders, everything.

00:06:23.360 But at the end of the day, the equipment back in the day when I started wrestling

00:06:28.500 in 77 was a little different than the rings and stuff you guys are working in now.

00:06:32.420 Yeah, totally.

00:06:33.040 I heard it was much, much harder.

00:06:34.880 God, Andre used to tell me at Baltimore, boss, don't fall down.

00:06:38.940 You won't get back up.

00:06:41.720 It was like a 22 foot boxing ring that had lumps in it, boards sticking up.

00:06:45.280 It was horrible.

00:06:45.980 I didn't that didn't concern you because like now now you're kind of paying the price for it.

00:06:50.980 Yeah, well, you know, I mean, you came from South Tampa.

00:06:55.480 There's a road called Gandy Boulevard here. 0.95

00:06:58.480 And if you're south of Gandy, you're called a SOG, S-O-G, South of Gandy. 0.99

00:07:03.080 And you either work construction, you either became a professional athlete or you sold drugs.

00:07:09.780 Those are your choices.

00:07:11.380 So which one did you choose?

00:07:15.280 Well, I did a little different.

00:07:16.960 I played music for like 10 years before I ever got into the wrestling business.

00:07:20.960 But no, it was something that I kind of stumbled into.

00:07:25.100 I was a huge fan.

00:07:26.680 But yeah, I mean, back in the day when we were wrestling, bro,

00:07:29.520 first off, when I went to Japan, I was coming off the top rope

00:07:33.680 with no knee pads on, and I was 330 pounds.

00:07:36.840 And all of a sudden, I said, okay, the left knee's already gone.

00:07:39.940 I've only been in the business like two years. 0.99

00:07:41.540 So it was just the equipment and jumping up and dropping the damn leg for 40 years. 0.95

00:07:47.180 When I had the largest arms of the world, I should have been using a sleeper, no bumps. 0.95

00:07:51.380 Yeah, it was all cool, man, no regrets.

00:07:55.140 Well, that's what I was gonna ask, cuz as someone who's new in the industry,

00:07:58.040 I'm recognizing that longevity is kind of the name of the game.

00:08:01.420 And I wanna be healthy so I could do this sport, but

00:08:04.660 I'm also looking 10, 20, 30 years down the line.

00:08:08.060 And I don't want to be hobbling around, but do you think you wish you would have played it a little smarter for the sake of your body and your physical health?

00:08:16.880 Yeah, I probably should have quit earlier, you know, but I just love doing it, you know, and the money was just crazy, you know, because my deal is different than everybody else's.

00:08:25.580 Yeah, you know, and so it it worked out well, but, you know, if I quit a little bit earlier, probably would have been better off.

00:08:34.200 But anybody that stays in 20, 30 years, like I was in almost 40,

00:08:38.380 you'll see them all.

00:08:39.560 They're all walking around and limping.

00:08:41.500 Yeah, I know.

00:08:41.940 We've had a lot of them on the show.

00:08:43.200 All of them.

00:08:43.440 They're all beat up, man.

00:08:44.280 Yeah, for sure. 1.00

00:08:45.160 Do you do any of that new age shit, stem cells? 0.99

00:08:47.940 I've tried it all. 0.99

00:08:48.960 Any of it work for you?

00:08:49.800 It doesn't work?

00:08:51.440 Not for me.

00:08:52.200 But that's the thing, though.

00:08:53.220 You say quit earlier, and I think that's the piece of advice.

00:08:56.560 But when he says take it a little bit easier.

00:08:59.220 The boat.

00:09:00.160 Yes, sir.

00:09:00.680 You got a cold beer, bro.

00:09:01.900 I need something.

00:09:02.880 Attaboy.

00:09:03.240 That'll work.

00:09:04.200 it's your beer oh yeah there it is oh thanks for thanks for promoting my beer guys yeah of course

00:09:10.420 real american beer why don't you crack one with him buddy i'll crack a beer with you no i don't

00:09:16.160 do it you know the weirdest thing was we were on the phone with what was last night baby no the

00:09:20.640 night before with trump after the thing you know he he called and i missed his call and we were

00:09:25.840 running pretty hard at the the ozark because that's a little wild over there you know so when

00:09:31.600 week came and i i missed because i'm gonna text that son again as i was texting he called me back

00:09:36.740 and we talked about it i told him i said the timing for this beer is you know i saw this crazy

00:09:43.700 open lane and my whole thing's always been marketing and licensing stuff you know so when

00:09:48.640 i went back to wwe in 84 to wrestle the sheep they weren't selling t-shirts they didn't have

00:09:53.520 any music to go to the ring and i was already doing that in minnesota and i was making a ton

00:09:57.720 a ton of money on merch and stuff so you know when i when i came back and did the the real

00:10:03.140 american thing you know i uh thank you brother i was uh i was telling trump on the phone i said

00:10:09.220 you know i saw this open lane you know and and trump's been around quite a while you know and

00:10:15.160 he's he's awesome in the ring too brother if you ever get have a chance to get in the ring with

00:10:18.620 trump you got to do it of course he'll do whatever you want he's great he did a face-off with me and

00:10:24.040 and he was so cool about it we did a stare down and and he's he's like my my cool grandpa there

00:10:30.240 you go and i imagine you guys have known each other forever yeah forever but uh i was we were

00:10:35.280 on the phone i was telling him about the rest of the weird thing is is the timing because when i

00:10:40.380 saw that open lane where bud light crashed and burned with that marketing plan you know i said

00:10:45.060 oh boy here we go i was at a convention i'm when i meet when the wwe rushes people through pretty

00:10:50.400 quick because you've got a couple thousand people to to see you or your brother you know if you're

00:10:54.960 with the wwe they try to get everybody they can but when i have time i like to shake hands look

00:11:00.600 at people in the eye and stuff and this guy had the past blue ribbon vice president tagline i said

00:11:05.440 oh damn man my dad used to drink that beer yeah that's the beer my dad drank and so he asked me

00:11:11.460 if i ever thought about doing a an alcohol endorsement i said well not before but now 0.99

00:11:16.360 that i saw this open lane i said i think i got this crazy idea for a beer that america's been

00:11:22.000 waiting for and i said back in the day when i when i was wrestling i was telling trump back in the

00:11:27.240 day when we'd wrestle and he and he saw a lot of it because he was there at the very beginning

00:11:31.360 that you know if him and i were in the ring and everything was cool and all of a sudden he knocked

00:11:36.920 my teeth out sometimes no lawyers no losses we go back out in the ring and settle it especially 0.97

00:11:42.340 if the guy's been a jerk off and not being safe out there so we'd go sell it out in the ring but 0.95

00:11:46.940 for me you know all the guys i was wrestling i was like 310 pounds i was a medium-sized guy 0.99

00:11:53.160 all the guys most of the guys were bigger than me except for piper and macho everybody else was

00:11:57.440 bigger than me so i said let's have a beer and talk about it so that's where the idea came from

00:12:02.440 and since the democrats and the republicans don't talk i was thinking wow this is even bigger than

00:12:08.120 politics you know because the beer i was thinking of it doesn't matter who you are where you're from

00:12:14.100 what color your skin is or what's your sexual preferences this is the beer for all real

00:12:18.240 americans because we're all we're all real americans and i was telling trump my idea

00:12:22.240 was let's bring america back together one beer at a time unity through alcohol yeah

00:12:27.320 there you go i love it you should make that your tagline thank you brother

00:12:31.060 that was on the household yeah for what you did for my childhood i'll make some money with that

00:12:36.000 Yeah, but, you know, and then all of a sudden, as divided as we are, we are more alike than we are different.

00:12:42.360 And then after this crap happened with Trump, you know, the beer had taken off before.

00:12:46.720 You know, they said, well, if you get a couple states and a couple distributors in the first year, you know, you're going to be doing good. 0.98

00:12:52.920 All of a sudden, we're rolling out almost 27 states and 60, 70 distributors.

00:12:58.340 Instead of having a couple hundred thousand cases ordered, we got millions ordered.

00:13:02.360 That's incredible.

00:13:02.900 And so now with the Trump thing, I was telling him, I said, America needs to come back together even more, you know.

00:13:10.160 And I was telling Trump when I was doing the speech, well, Vo was with me and Vo was in the back.

00:13:14.800 And the stage manager goes, Hogan's been out there for six minutes.

00:13:18.460 He hasn't read the teleprompter yet.

00:13:20.260 We can't believe it.

00:13:21.200 We can't believe they haven't ripped him off the stage.

00:13:24.140 And Vo goes, just let him go.

00:13:25.740 He's okay.

00:13:26.780 And so, you know, I was out there and I said, yeah, with Donald Trump or whatever the hell.

00:13:31.300 I said, I can't remember.

00:13:32.000 We're going to bring America back together 0.92

00:13:33.920 One real American at a time 0.77

00:13:35.460 And I almost said beer 1.00

00:13:36.600 But I didn't do it

00:13:38.260 And it might have been cool

00:13:39.360 Even though the people don't know

00:13:40.920 Half the people there don't even know I got the beer

00:13:42.920 It might have been cool to say it

00:13:44.040 But I was telling Trump on the phone

00:13:45.820 I said, brother, your whole thing

00:13:47.120 If there's anything crazy

00:13:49.660 Is the fact that you survived this thing

00:13:52.240 And it pissed me off so bad

00:13:53.480 But on the other hand

00:13:55.020 It's probably going to make the beer sell even more

00:13:56.900 I heard the Secret Service down like a 30-pack

00:14:00.580 I love it

00:14:01.740 i love it that's great man is trump really your hero yeah brother i've known that guy we rented the

00:14:10.220 the business was so different a long time ago because it was just me and vince at first

00:14:15.180 you know and i and i moved up i worked for his dad originally and his dad fired me

00:14:19.820 for doing the rocky movies they said i'd never work there again and then when i came back

00:14:24.300 after i started a promotion in minnesota i was coming in to take over new york

00:14:27.740 and uh when i went back vince used to be the ring guy doing the interviews he never

00:14:34.000 really was involved that much in the business and when i came back i worked for him

00:14:38.100 what was the question yeah yeah well this happens sometimes um the question was is trump

00:14:43.920 no no no because i do want to know because you got on stage at the rnc and you said trump's

00:14:51.460 your hero and it looked like you had taken it really personally yeah well i did bro i did

00:14:55.860 i did in the beer honestly not trying to be an ass with the beer isn't really a gimmick this is 0.98

00:15:01.260 personal too because i really think we need to get our shit together and come back together for sure 0.96

00:15:05.060 but yeah you know um what was the question yeah so this happens sometimes um you know what 0.94

00:15:11.780 i don't even know i've only been knocked out a couple times i just remembered um you took it

00:15:21.540 personally it sounded yeah yeah fired up up there someone tried to kill your hero

00:15:27.260 no but you know i've watched how he's treated people you know because he had that air about

00:15:36.040 him you know when we first met him and i was like okay man am i gonna get along with this guy or

00:15:40.340 not because i was at the top of my game back then i was on a roll man i was the world's champion i

00:15:44.920 was doing all these low-budget kids movies i was doing reality tv when is this late 80s

00:15:50.700 Early 90s?

00:15:51.380 Yeah, getting to be late 80s.

00:15:53.980 WrestleMania III was in 88, so it was after that 89, 90.

00:15:56.860 That's the Andre the Giant moment.

00:15:58.020 Yeah, brother.

00:15:58.600 Slam.

00:15:59.180 Yeah, and so then I saw how he treated people, you know?

00:16:03.620 And just to watch him walk in at the beginning of the night

00:16:06.700 when the preliminary match started and sit there all night long

00:16:10.520 and just how he talked to all the wrestlers in the back

00:16:13.080 and how kind he was to people.

00:16:14.500 And I saw how he handled the Make-A-Mish kids.

00:16:16.660 I watched this guy.

00:16:17.840 I said, man, this brother's for real, you know?

00:16:19.900 and then i got to know him and i love him to death but he is kind of vain you know yeah and i used to

00:16:26.520 be like the celebrity referee for us magazine so if logan paul got an argument with jake paul

00:16:33.140 over a girl or something i said okay logan you're right you're right but you know you your brother's

00:16:39.660 got better hair than you or something you know i i do the i actually think it's the exact opposite

00:16:43.940 Usually I'm wrong.

00:16:46.080 And I also have better hair.

00:16:48.240 There you go.

00:16:49.340 Apparently.

00:16:50.320 That is not the metric to me.

00:16:51.400 What I'm trying to tell you is I did this celebrity thing

00:16:54.700 between Donald Trump and J-Lo.

00:16:56.860 And Trump was right, you know, because J-Lo was, you know,

00:16:59.940 not being cool.

00:17:01.380 But I tagged him with him.

00:17:02.320 And by the way, Trump, J-Lo's got better hair than you. 0.99

00:17:05.400 Holy shit, I get a letter from Trump Plaza, 1.00

00:17:09.780 a handwritten letter. 0.99

00:17:11.040 No, from Trump.

00:17:12.900 Well, apparently, Terry, I thought we were on the same page

00:17:15.680 and we were friends, but, you know.

00:17:17.580 Bro, that's literally the worst thing you could say to Trump.

00:17:21.240 I know, I know, but I was just ribbing, bro.

00:17:23.880 I was just trying to get a cheap shot to get myself over, you know.

00:17:27.360 His family, his mom, it don't matter.

00:20:30.020 Lisa, we should tell them about our new show.

00:20:33.320 Oh my God, Lexi.

00:20:34.600 We have a new podcast.

00:20:36.060 It's called Don't Lie to Me.

00:20:37.420 I'm Lexi Iwanu.

00:20:38.620 We're two best friends, 22 years apart, but so close at heart.

00:20:42.640 And I'm Lisa DiGiulio, the old one, which means we have wildly different references,

00:20:47.700 occasionally different opinions.

00:20:48.960 And at this point in my 50s, I've lived it all.

00:20:51.780 I'm not going to get anywhere fighting.

00:20:54.620 That is wild.

00:20:56.100 I learned that about you today.

00:20:58.720 Now in my 30s, being the founder of New Shoes,

00:21:01.900 Good Taste is my business,

00:21:03.880 and I've always got something to say.

00:21:06.060 If men were just honest about this,

00:21:08.180 there would be so much more peace in the world.

00:21:10.060 We're going to talk about dating, relationships, beauty,

00:21:13.280 getting older, and a little wiser.

00:21:15.160 We're best friends, but we don't always agree.

00:21:17.480 Because you told us how accommodating you are.

00:21:20.020 Obviously, I would do what I think I could do

00:21:22.280 to fight the fight,

00:21:23.420 but there's only so much fight I can fight.

00:21:24.980 don't lie to me don't lie to me don't lie to me don't lie to me don't lie to me don't lie to me

00:22:01.620 That's why I had to make yapping a job.

00:22:03.560 And the scams run the gamut.

00:22:37.940 Scam Goddess! 0.89

00:22:40.040 Old Hannity the other night said, I was one of these guys that was a coward. 0.73

00:22:44.400 You know, I was one of these guys that wouldn't put a Trump sign on my yard.

00:22:48.340 or wouldn't wear the trump shirt the trump act because i was afraid you know what might happen

00:22:52.880 or whatever and uh i said after they took that shot at him and tried to kill him i said that was

00:22:57.560 it i don't think dude i don't that was it yeah i don't think you were a coward i think there's a 0.99

00:23:01.700 lot of people who well silent but not because you were what do you say you're not scared of shit 0.98

00:23:06.420 there's a lot of people who up until this moment until someone tried to take his head off 0.98

00:23:10.620 just didn't really want to spend their time having that conversation you see the fire that

00:23:15.780 it brings to your porch when you put a sign up that you got to deal with all the the feedback

00:23:19.760 the hatred this that and now it becomes your life it consumes your life how much have you done over

00:23:24.500 the past six days or however long it's been since you spoke at rnc related to this topic it is now

00:23:31.380 ingrained in your being so like you're not a coward for having not gotten into it but now

00:23:37.060 it feels like people are being called to because he got shot at yeah which i understand completely

00:23:41.480 Well, the whole vibe's changed because, you know,

00:23:44.500 like usually when I walk in, like, the arena last night,

00:23:48.160 the chants will go, Hogan, Hogan, as soon as I come in, you know.

00:23:52.820 And I've been in a couple UFC fights where they'll be in that rest hold

00:23:55.960 or I don't know exactly all the terminology,

00:23:58.900 but a guy will go behind somebody and try to put him in a rear naked choke.

00:24:01.840 He won't quite get him.

00:24:02.880 Or if they're against the cage, the whole crowd will start going, Hogan. 0.99

00:24:06.280 I'm like, holy shit, you know. 0.98

00:24:07.740 But last night we walked in, it was like, USA, USA. 0.99

00:24:11.480 say and then all of a sudden they put the camera on me and my wife sky and the whole place was

00:24:16.720 going f joe biden that was before you guys came out the whole building was going f joe biden i was

00:24:22.200 like okay this has changed a little bit well that's kind of what he's saying you know now

00:24:26.520 now it's at least momentarily kind of ingrained in in your brand because i you did go to the rnc and

00:24:33.000 fired up those republicans you ripped your shirt off yeah yeah yeah i i don't want to freak them

00:24:38.500 out too bad because they made me go in the back and rehearse and i've never rehearsed anything

00:24:43.680 you know yeah and i mean even the matches i don't talk about i never talked about a match i heard

00:24:48.300 this we'll get into all of that no no but the whole thing was i'm in the back and they got the 0.55

00:24:53.000 plexiglass podium and there's like 20 jabronis sitting there i don't even know who the hell

00:24:58.880 they were and all of a sudden the lady was really nice all the people were really nice

00:25:04.120 and they had a teleprompter in front of me and one on each side you know they said we want to

00:25:09.400 time this i'm like how much time do i have tough you know and so i tried to do what they wanted me

00:25:16.340 to do i couldn't do it man then i started losing my confidence i started freaking and i knew they

00:25:21.200 were all scared that i was gonna you know blow it when i went out there and vo vo was cool he

00:25:27.480 knows what i'm up to but it was kind of weird because when the stage manager goes he's out

00:25:31.940 there for six minutes and he hasn't read the teleprompter yet we can't believe they haven't

00:25:35.800 jerked him off the stage i kind of pushed it but bro i only gave it 50 i mean now that i know i can 0.89

00:25:42.540 get away with that crap if i go talking i'm gonna hammer it bro i'm gonna because once i get out 0.74

00:25:47.800 there i start thinking my mind goes some really weird places bro you know i had some crazy stuff 0.97

00:25:53.360 i was gonna say sky was scared of dust because she knows anything will come out i can't wait to

00:25:58.480 I hear this 100% one.

00:26:00.380 She goes, I'm scared, I'm scared, I'm scared.

00:26:04.720 Because I don't know what's going to come out of your mouth.

00:26:06.520 I said, I'll try to do the best I can.

00:26:08.820 But yeah, it was fun, man.

00:26:10.560 But I felt that those people believed in what I was trying to say about Trump.

00:26:17.080 So it was kind of cool to feel that vibe.

00:26:18.880 I also feel like there's a little bit of a course correction here

00:26:22.540 out of the Trump camp and out of the Republican side

00:26:25.620 to bring about that unity

00:26:27.700 that you spoke about earlier

00:26:29.280 being a little bit more of an accepting

00:26:31.340 conservative base. Yo, if you want to come

00:26:33.580 to our side, we'll accept you. We don't...

00:26:35.260 Mark Zuckerberg. Mark Zuckerberg last week

00:26:37.640 said that... Was that him or the robot?

00:26:39.840 No, it was... I think it was the real him.

00:26:41.780 I don't think it was the clone. I think they actually

00:26:43.440 got Zuckerberg. This one did seem like Mark himself.

00:26:45.960 He said, man,

00:26:47.440 seeing Trump, you know, get hit and throw

00:26:49.440 his hand up was one of the most badass things I've ever seen.

00:26:51.300 He ripped me off. Bar for bar. Bar for bar, he copied

00:26:53.480 my tweet. And you saw a couple people online

00:26:55.480 and say like fuck him we don't want him he's been against us since day one stay on that side but the 0.99

00:27:00.560 majority of the bases said listen you want to come over here we'll take you especially someone like 1.00

00:27:05.300 mark zucker i've also noticed that even even just personally i think we had him on our podcast i

00:27:10.340 tweeted because i i thought this this uh assassination survival was also one of the

00:27:15.500 most badass things if not the most badass thing i've ever seen in my life and i i got some comments

00:27:19.840 myself like you you switched up what about the comments you made about trump back in 2020 and

00:27:24.160 i'm like i don't know like is it okay to like change like what if i change my mind is that

00:27:29.040 is that cool or am i like solidified in your mind to just be this one thing uh but you're right i

00:27:34.340 felt like not to get like into the politics too much oh we're here brother but we're here we're

00:27:40.720 here brother i did feel like that speech at the rnc was it felt more about like unity rather than

00:27:47.480 like i'm attacking my opponent which which had i've been the angle i'd love that yeah that's

00:27:52.740 Well, a lot of people, a lot of the haters, a lot of people that don't get it,

00:27:56.060 it's like, you know, I was saved when I was 14 years old.

00:27:59.060 I accepted Christ as my Savior when I was 14 years old.

00:28:01.460 Then I derailed, of course, because I played in a rock and roll band for 10 years.

00:28:05.500 That devil's music.

00:28:06.280 That carnage.

00:28:07.460 And then I got into the wrestling business.

00:28:08.880 I said, oh, my God, these wrestlers party twice as hard as musicians.

00:28:12.640 Oh, my God.

00:28:13.420 It's going to be great, you know.

00:28:15.560 But at the end of the day, when I got remarried to Sky,

00:28:20.540 and you know she was a believer and we got the kids baptized to get baptized a lot of my old

00:28:24.860 friends goes he hasn't changed a bit we know hogan we know he's you know it's a work he's just

00:28:30.220 you know because i did run pretty hard you know i i was the leader of the pack for about 20 years

00:28:37.760 you know all my brothers are dead so i i would go to the edge and go whoa it's too far down for me

00:28:42.480 but you know i did run pretty hard for a while you know it's so funny uh sitting with you just

00:28:48.480 candidly i get the same kind of feeling i get when like arna schwarzenegger sat here is like

00:28:53.460 there's just so much there's i don't even know where to like start yes we've ever had on our

00:28:58.020 show of 500 episodes that i've once played with a miniature version of for hours on end brother

00:29:05.580 i grew up playing with this man twisting his arms off making his arms go up and down like this 0.71

00:29:11.480 this is a fucking legend yeah for sure we've had almost 500 episodes on the show we've been doing 0.95

00:29:17.820 the show for six years trump schwarzenegger dude you're this is one of the for me one of the craziest 0.99

00:29:23.860 fucking guys so yes i agree yeah i don't even know i don't even know where to start well speaking of 0.97

00:29:28.380 those darn figures man and january 23rd 1984 i beat the iron chic so fast forward 40 years later 0.99

00:29:35.420 to this january and mattel went crazy with the action figures you know i made a whole bunch of 0.97

00:29:40.940 stuff and even though i'm not wrestling and i'm not one of the young guys like like you know your

00:29:46.000 brother here is I still still get the number one song action figure in the world.

00:29:50.600 They've done like 70 different action figures of me.

00:29:53.520 And the only one that they ever canceled was the vibrating one.

00:29:57.440 Because I had a vibrating Hulk Hogan action figure.

00:30:01.720 They said, Skye's like I still have mine.

00:30:04.280 Oh, yeah, wow, that's strong, brother.

00:30:12.120 She held on to one.

00:30:13.040 I love it, I love it.

00:30:14.480 i had one of yours that stretched that was my favorite one dude that's crazy it's i am so

00:30:20.980 impressed with anyone who can who can be relevant for that long that's got to be like the hardest

00:30:26.200 thing about any of these industries that we're in it's just like you've been doing it for so long

00:30:30.740 and you're still at the top i think because of the way you impacted the industry you're like one

00:30:35.440 of the founding fathers of wrestling you're probably on every wrestler's mount rushmore

00:30:40.220 wrestlers dude come on there's a few haters out there like who bret hart why is he so bitter

00:30:46.440 bret hates everybody why is he so bitter if it's not me it's flair it's vince you know i'll never

00:30:53.400 work for vince again after what happened to my family and then he's back you know it just it

00:30:58.340 just never ends with him and i love bret to death man i started with bro i mean i mean i remember

00:31:03.040 when i was in atlanta i was in the business about three years and i was like 330 pounds almost 340

00:31:08.040 all natural anyway and i i just remember brett used to live across the hall of me and when i was

00:31:15.880 working for uh channel 17 what was it uh crockett promotion that i was so big brett they i'd wrestle

00:31:25.080 three guys once so i'd pick all three of them up in a bear hug and just ragnoll you know brett was

00:31:30.580 one of them you know and i'd throw him down but we were just all getting started so it was all fun

00:31:35.300 but then we got rolling and he just man it's just it's just he says i destroyed his career

00:31:41.740 you know it's like okay all right whatever you know i just don't i just don't get it man because

00:31:49.440 i love him to death he's a good guy and he uh he was a great asset to the business you know it makes 0.61

00:31:54.340 me sad seeing these clips of him just like shit on everyone that he used to work with and works 0.95

00:31:59.040 because like he was a fantastic wrestler but it that bitter taste in his mouth is is it leaves a 0.97

00:32:06.880 nasty taste in my mouth to watch like as a fan of like why why so angry after all these years

00:32:11.600 the vibe the you know similar vibes and similar energy like attracts like so when you talk that

00:32:19.080 you attract more of that hatred and that negativity and it's just it's not good man it's time to you

00:32:26.120 know switch up man and be positive and happy and love people you know it's it's i don't think people

00:32:31.080 get that i feel like people always say they want happiness and they want positivity but they don't

00:32:36.220 understand that the only way to get that is to put it out you put that stuff out there it always it

00:32:40.500 comes back to you you greet someone with a smile all of a sudden they're smiling back at you you

00:32:45.160 got it it's so funny uh uh how much wrestling has changed since you started and i'm i am like the

00:32:51.460 newest guy in wrestling like the newest generation of and i i think it'll probably even change um

00:32:56.540 from now uh and then until 10 years from now yeah uh but like it is funny how like i'm a i'm a big

00:33:03.140 guy i'm six two two ten two twenty and uh yeah well people say they meet me like the the comments

00:33:10.620 usually like yo you're bigger in person but when you guys wrestled you guys were huge and you're

00:33:15.340 saying you were even just a medium-sized guy yeah and and and i think um in like a blanket statement

00:33:22.820 the style from at least when you wrestled to now these over-the-top personalities right to now i

00:33:30.740 think um uh maybe a more tactical move set based physicality based uh matchmaking athleticism style

00:33:39.700 um takes takes precedent do you see that happening and do you have any opinions about

00:33:45.920 the way wrestling has changed and evolved yeah it's it's changed a lot i mean the wrestlers you

00:33:51.820 know back in the day you know if you're a wrestler you had to have the look huge arms and a big belly

00:33:57.700 you know basically so you look like a wrestler and like before i went to do the rocky three movie

00:34:02.740 if you came to my house my mother would go all right stand against the wall and she'd get her

00:34:08.160 little pencil and she'd put your height up there and put your name so when i went to do the the

00:34:12.800 rocking movie i was six foot seven and i weighed 330 pounds i had a 34 inch waist i was in crazy

00:34:18.300 shape that's crazy fast forward 35 years later right before my mother passed you know she goes

00:34:24.800 terry get up the wall get on the wall so she measured me again i was like six four you know

00:34:29.660 and like right now i weigh 265 that's what i weighed in ninth grade you know so it's kind of

00:34:34.440 like i'm still bigger than most of the wrestlers you know you're a big guy a lot of others but a

00:34:40.120 lot of them are smaller so it's kind of weird because a lot of the smaller guys you know

00:34:45.720 have kind of like went from mid-card players to tag team players now they're the main event guys

00:34:50.940 where when i was in the business if some of these guys came along that were you know

00:34:55.200 under six feet and and you know 180 185 pounds they would never even been it was like the nba

00:35:01.140 almost yeah yeah but it's changed a lot but the the the stuff that's going on the ring and and

00:35:07.300 the athleticism and the moves they're doing man i always tell everybody you know it's kind of like

00:35:12.900 keep those boots on the ground brother you know because some people can dive off the top and do

00:35:18.580 flips and go out it doesn't mean anything it's all about storytelling now if you do that you're

00:35:23.700 telling a good story that changes the game but you know to draw money you gotta you gotta tell

00:35:29.780 Oh, a great story to keep getting the people back in the seats.

00:35:32.280 But it's changed a lot now because there aren't that many attractions.

00:38:48.960 I've been dying to.

00:38:51.140 I'm so sorry.

00:38:51.960 I'm seeing a reading of Sadako and the Thousand Paper Cranes by Audra McDonald at the Wonderland Bookstore on the 14th.

00:38:58.860 That's crazy.

00:38:59.380 I went to the Wonderland Bookstore yesterday and I heard Nora Jones do a reading of Zero Dark Thirty.

00:39:03.840 No way.

00:39:05.000 We'll have to come to the last bookstore, though.

00:39:06.900 Kim Cattrall is reading the guitar tabs of yesterday.

00:39:11.420 A panel of Eurovision participants.

00:39:13.600 And we do a little Halloween sometimes.

00:39:16.260 Does the Pope dress up?

00:39:17.560 He winks on Halloween.

00:39:19.780 He gets right up next to the microphone.

00:39:21.540 I hear you can almost hear the eyelashes hit each other.

00:39:24.600 You've never seen Italy so quiet as when the Pope gets up to wink on Halloween.

00:39:30.000 Listen to Artists on Artists on Artists on Artists on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts.

00:39:36.760 He's got an opportunity to be a huge attraction in this business.

00:39:39.500 but usually the attractions like stone cold and andre the giant and some guy named hulk hogan

00:39:45.440 you know back in the day they were the star now the production is the star you know the tv shows

00:39:53.000 the star yeah you know there's interchangeable parts one guy with brown hair that's six feet

00:39:57.340 tall gets hurt to bring another one for the performance center give him a push nobody knows

00:40:01.120 the difference you know and so it's it's a it's a little bit different and but they're always

00:40:06.180 looking for that attraction you know and so watching you my brother you you have an opportunity

00:40:12.260 to be the next big attraction in this business simply because you you got your together i've

00:40:17.140 never seen anybody get this as quick as you have i've never seen anybody since i've been a wrestling

00:40:25.220 fan since i was in the business four years i've never seen anybody pick up on it as quick as you

00:40:30.340 have and your stuff looks believable there's no holes in your work so just don't get hurt

00:40:36.180 yeah that is the big thing huh well first off uh honor to hear that thank you i told your brother

00:40:42.520 that when i saw him in miami what a month ago baby yeah he called me he said he told me that

00:40:46.820 man it's it's such an honor hearing that from you obviously and and i think i've recently

00:40:52.060 kind of had that realization and i try to say this humbly but also not i did like look in the

00:40:57.940 mirror and looked at my my craft and i thought like i think i could do this if i actually like

00:41:03.800 devote my time to it so i did have the conversation with triple h i said hey i want to be the guy

00:41:10.920 what do i have to do to be the guy and um i'm gonna i'm gonna start making that run next year

00:41:15.840 good 2025 um and and and i've learned so much wrestling is the hardest thing i've ever done

00:41:23.980 i've done a lot it is by far the most difficult thing i've ever had to do there are so many

00:41:29.740 skills involved it is a 360 degree art as you know and at the end of the day like you just said

00:41:35.820 it always comes back to storytelling yeah what is what is that that root of that story you're

00:41:41.900 trying to tell so you can hook people into your arc but what i don't understand and i i've heard

00:41:48.120 these stories as as i'm uh matchmaking and match building is your ability to show up on the day and

00:41:55.720 call the match on the spot yeah because how can you how can you tell a story that well

00:42:02.820 on the fly in my head at least the way i like even just script my content or anything i'm mapping out

00:42:11.220 the beats you know uh uh the exposition the the climax um the all this lost moment like all all

00:42:19.060 of that yeah and so how were you able to do that and and still tell these incredible stories with 0.98

00:42:26.260 your work well i had a good teacher i had andre who taught me you know and he beat the shit on me

00:42:32.520 for about eight years and then i kind of won him over in japan because i spent half the year in

00:42:38.440 japan you know i'd go to japan 22 to 24 weeks a year and you know i worked for shin upon pro

00:42:44.700 wrestling over there and they owned a company called pride also so when you walk in the locker

00:42:49.840 room everything was written in japanese and they wrote the card out every night and you never knew

00:42:54.640 who you were wrestling because i couldn't read the japanese stuff and you didn't know

00:42:59.000 if it was one of the boys from new japan pro wrestling or it was one of the pride guys like 0.97

00:43:02.800 bob sap or one of these crazy son of a bitch you know so every night you've been thank god i was 0.95

00:43:07.900 young back then so i wasn't afraid to fight anybody back in the day but it was just different 0.98

00:43:12.960 But Andre pretty much taught me, you know, and one of the one of the weirdest things that happened was when I went to work for Ted Turner and me and Eric Bischoff got that whole NWO thing going, you know, we tried for like almost nine years to put Vince out of business, you know, and we're at war because that me and Vince is like this love hate relationship with me and him, you know.

00:43:38.780 and so at the end of the day when we came back to the end back to uh the wwe vince calls me

00:43:47.740 goes oh i want you to work with the rock where my goal was to work with stone cold steve austin

00:43:51.760 and you know have a couple year run with him as the bad guy you could beat me every night and i

00:43:56.640 could lie slipped on banana peel sun was in my eyes and somebody pissed on my back i thought it

00:44:01.040 was raining but i got a million excuses but when i went back he wanted me to work with the rock and

00:44:06.420 rock was on the way out you know and so vince goes well you know hogan things have changed and

00:44:13.060 when you come back you better bring it so respectfully i said well yes sir i'll bring it

00:44:17.780 you know but in in my mind i'm going brother if i bring me if i bring my you're

00:44:21.700 gonna be asking me to take it back you know so then i'm sitting at home and uh

00:44:27.460 i had a little warm-up batch with rikishi here in tampa and my kids were sitting at ringside

00:44:32.740 so i told rikishi i said buckle me reverse it and charge me you know so boom we he you know he

00:44:39.460 reversed it boom i hit the buckle and i forgot he was coming because i said charge me so i looked

00:44:43.520 over my son nick i was like laughing laughing and all of a sudden i get this you know 380 pounds

00:44:48.680 samoa and squash me i wasn't i didn't flex so i broke a couple of my ribs right so then i called

00:44:55.500 vince i said bro i got broke a couple ribs screwing around i said i need a doctor in toronto

00:45:01.600 when i get there he goes oh well before you know he called me monster well monster before you

00:45:07.200 go to toronto i need you down in miami tomorrow i said miami why miami well the rock wants to

00:45:23.680 all right so out of respect i go down to miami they got this ring set up in this hot ass warehouse

00:45:30.240 and thank god the rocks dad was there rocky johnson who i traveled with he's one of my guys you know

00:45:36.480 and uh pat patterson was there and so i got in the ring with the rock out of respect i had i

00:45:42.320 really hadn't seen the rock since i threw my headband out and he caught it when he was a kid

00:45:45.520 you know that's crazy and and so now we're in the ring and he's this major star i got nothing but

00:45:50.000 respect for him because he's really good in the rainbow i watched him he really has his together

00:45:55.200 so we get there and all of a sudden

00:45:58.060 you know we're talking about okay we're going to lock up

00:46:00.420 and he's telling me

00:46:01.780 and he's got this whole thing in his head we're going to lock up

00:46:04.420 go to the corner you go

00:46:05.900 go to throw a punch I'll duck I'll block it 0.89

00:46:07.960 wait quickly this is the first

00:46:15.100 in 30 years it's shocking

00:46:17.880 they told me this no shocking's not

00:46:35.160 i just lead the match where i listen to my ears and my heart i can hear what they want you know

00:46:39.780 and so at the end of the day the rock's saying okay duck this punch bang bang bang

00:46:44.620 then get some heat on me shut me down the duck's clothes on two drop kicks over the top pull me

00:46:49.260 out you know run me in the pool and he's telling me all this stuff i'm like i'm going you got the

00:49:28.940 we got on track man he was perfect he he pivots you know and he's he's he makes the transitions

00:49:34.540 and he knows placement the timing you know the balance everything he's got is spot on so it was

00:49:40.440 just like a pleasure to work with me i wish we'd have never talked you know because we really didn't

00:49:45.060 do any of that shit we talked about so okay so i just went yeah so we just basically and actually

00:49:50.480 usually i call the match in the ring but he was so good he was talking to me too you know somebody's 0.96

00:49:55.840 that good i listen brother you know because i can learn on the spot and they're really quick but

00:49:59.760 that's how it works you know you just gotta you know you've got it's a it's a it's an art form

00:50:05.140 you know and once you've it's all instinct you know and it's and it's heartfelt and once you

00:50:11.240 really figure it out and once you get out there then you can call your own destiny then you can

00:50:17.940 you know make your own the right deal for yourself you know once you get to that place where you're

00:50:22.160 a real attraction sometimes you get bigger than the company and that can be a problem man i strive

00:50:28.180 to reach that level of mastery no you gotta you got an opportunity to do that brother because you

00:50:32.300 should not be any type of champion except the world's champion at this point you need to make

00:50:37.700 that quick transition and if they're smart and triple h is smart that transition that transition

00:50:43.060 needs to be made this year you hear that triple h also no we're going to netflix as well right

00:50:49.220 in that the demos are going to overlap social media kid combined with the the uh wrestling

00:50:54.680 era demographic and and i think it could be the perfect intersection it is um that's that'll be

00:51:00.560 that's what the next attraction should be dude i'm i'm i want to put in the work i told him like i'm

00:51:05.560 they call me a part-timer that that offends me but i get it um i'm also expensive you know so

00:51:11.980 that's cool you know what

00:51:13.900 how would i put this kindly

00:51:18.740 there's there's there's uh how would i say this and not get heat on myself um

00:51:25.580 no you you got they they they there's not a number they can't write a check for brother

00:51:31.420 no i i know that i know that but i also i also don't want to be greedy because it isn't it isn't

00:51:36.280 entirely about the money for me like i just i just want to feel like my my time is being valued

00:51:41.780 that's all i i i'm not i'm not gonna run up a check for that because i i really do love it

00:51:46.440 yeah well that's cool but they they go together they go together man yeah you know they really

00:51:51.380 do five billion dollar netflix deal i think you need it i think you need an entourage like a paul

00:51:56.420 bear that's the only thing that probably needs somebody probably needs all code and cut his

00:52:01.280 deals for money yo for real sorry sorry jeff you're out sorry jeff you're out but you can

00:52:06.780 still hand me the brass knuckles no here's the deal bro triple h triple h is a very smart man

00:52:10.840 he gets it you know he's no he knows what time it is so i wanted to ask about the difference in

00:52:15.040 leadership now because triple h has uh you know they're calling it that what are they saying the

00:52:19.400 hashtag logan paul the veck era they're calling it and uh i think that's i think it's accurate

00:52:24.840 it's indicative of the times but things have changed since vince was around and i only know

00:52:29.780 that because they tell me obviously like i was the last superstar that vince signed before he

00:52:36.580 resigned and i hear how different the change in leadership is and now at least there seems to be

00:52:44.940 a lot more creative freedom for the the stars to to use and and do what they want are you

00:52:53.360 seeing that change do you like it you think it's good for the business well so i'm not you know i'm

00:53:00.900 not interactive with you guys now i mean you know if i was wrestling i could really answer that

00:53:06.800 question but all i know is you know working with vince for all that time now working with nick

00:53:14.380 con you know because i i signed a five-year deal i'm gonna be 71 years old in a few weeks but

00:53:19.680 i signed a five-year deal for you know the licensing and merchandising stuff and you know

00:53:25.040 like the ambassador stuff if they need me to do something for wrestlemania i just love doing it

00:53:28.780 But it's definitely different because with Vince, hey, Vince, let's do the NASCAR thing.

00:53:39.320 I need six more monster trucks.

00:53:40.960 Hey, brother, I know twin referees.

00:53:44.040 Let me think about it, monster.

00:53:46.580 Vince would kind of like, I'd sit in a room with him.

00:53:50.400 It was just him and I.

00:53:51.140 We'd be working a year backwards, storyline-wise.

00:53:53.740 And I'd say, well, what about the six-month period if I put the belt on Piper?

00:53:58.100 and let me think about it he would do this and stare like this for like an hour and not say a

00:54:04.460 word to me I just you know and he was soul searching and thinking about it thinking about

00:54:08.520 the final decision and I just remember working with him you know I could go back and forth

00:54:13.880 with him and we'd agree to disagree but most of the time you know he I said Vince I feel it bro

00:54:19.380 you're not out there you know but then he eventually did get out there but what I feel

00:54:24.540 of the leadership is working with Nick Khan now he's more for me just business cut and dry yep

00:54:32.300 he doesn't overthink the creative and I don't I don't deal with the creative too much unless

00:54:36.000 I talk to Bruce Pritchett or something they ask me a question about a finish or something like that

00:54:40.460 I really don't get involved too much but just working with the two different heads of state

00:54:45.560 if you call it that Nick Khan is just strictly business so I said hey brother you know this

00:54:51.780 artwork that hasn't been used for 35 years i need it for my real american beer and so nick con goes

00:54:57.580 let me get back to you in a couple days it's okay fine no rush so when he calls me back you know we

00:55:02.240 talked and all of a sudden you know he goes well you know you can use the artwork this and that

00:55:06.580 and the other but you know i need i don't want to say the number but i need x amount of percentage

00:55:11.340 of every million bucks you make i said well you know instead of me you know paying you guys

00:55:17.620 hundreds and hundreds of thousands of dollars and potentially millions of dollars i can go out

00:55:22.700 for 300 bucks and they can have you know someone do this artwork again reasonably similar maybe

00:55:27.420 even reasonably confusing but you know i but i wouldn't do that i'd do something a little

00:55:32.240 different then nick goes oh you know let me just gift it to you i said good because we're on the

00:55:36.160 same team brother we're on the same team so nick was really cool it was just sitting down and

00:55:40.720 talking with him and he made it really easy on me you know and and vince was great too but i just

00:55:46.240 don't know if Vince would make that quick of a decision especially when I pulled up short

00:55:50.260 and was hold on brother you know I just I'm asking for a caricature it's just some simple

00:55:54.260 ass artwork you know Nick got it and knew that I could have something else drawn up the next day

00:55:59.560 you know but he was he's been very easy and supportive and helpful and when he came up to

00:56:06.340 me the first time I met him with his wife and kids this whole rap was oh my god I've been a

00:56:11.740 hulk maniac all my life i grew up watching and i you know i said and i said to his wife how do

00:56:17.080 you put up with this she goes oh all he does is talk about hulk maniac hulk hogan shows our kids

00:56:22.120 the matches so he gets it you know what i'm saying so i'm on the team and and i just wanted them to

00:56:28.060 know that they have my support you know especially for guys like this and the new guys that are

00:56:31.660 coming in man when i see a talent man i i you know i get in his ear about it you know do when

00:56:38.160 you go to the headquarters nowadays and you see all these like people in suits walking around and

00:56:44.400 they're putting food in the microwave and it's like 15 story headquarters you go to a match the

00:56:48.860 guys finish up and they leave and they put those big leg sleeves on they hang out and do stem cells

00:56:54.160 and shit do you ever think like it'll just never be the same as it was me dude me and you know the 0.98

00:57:01.260 boys sit in the office planning soul search and going out cracking beers no corporate bullshit 0.99

00:57:06.300 do you ever yearn for the old days well i had my time brother i wouldn't want to relive them

00:57:11.900 because it was it was a rough run like it was it was it was uh it was crazy because when i was

00:57:19.740 wrestling i'd go like the philadelphia spectrum i'd go to wrestle piper and vince go hey you know

00:57:25.500 terry tell piper we need to get about 20 minutes in he need to drop the leg one two three but then

00:57:30.300 after you drop the leg and he leaves the ring as you're doing your posing you know and you're doing

00:57:33.740 and your stuff holding the belt i want him to circle back drop you get some heat get some major

00:57:39.860 color because we're going to come back in a lumberjack match then we gotta finish for that

00:57:44.000 then we're gonna come back in a steel cage match you know in three or four in a row so i tell piper 0.99

00:57:49.120 oh you know just talking to vince he wants me to drop the leg is fuck no i'm not putting you over 0.99

00:57:53.440 i said okay well they they that's how it was back yeah yeah i said well here's the deal brother you 0.99

00:57:59.840 know um that's okay we can figure something out for tonight but vince was going to go with you

00:58:06.320 you and i two three times you know and you're going to make some serious bread but that's okay

00:58:10.660 brother i got other people i can work with you know and you go work with somebody else you know

00:58:15.200 and so that's how it was even back in the day you know paul ornandoff was another one never

00:58:21.700 wanted to put anybody over you know as a babyface they told me don't even go down to a knee you know

00:58:28.120 this hulk i made anything was so big but then when i turned heel you know it was easy you could beat 0.78

00:58:32.780 me every night it wouldn't matter because you know i could lie lie cheat and steal but it was

00:58:37.220 different back then at the end of the day you know i got over because all the guys you know

00:58:44.280 supported me and put me over and stuff like that and i mean it's good now that they've got the

00:58:51.940 you know the the squirrels under control you know instead of them running wild at least

00:58:56.740 when they tell you a finish there's these guaranteed contracts which they didn't have

00:59:01.120 back in the day you know if you got hurt you didn't make any money and so i think it's a

00:59:05.200 little easier now but you know watching what you're doing um you have a certain air about you

00:59:12.720 that you're a really good heel naturally and what is so cool you're gonna make one of the

00:59:20.640 best baby faces ever when they turn you because the more heat you get and the more hate you

00:59:25.460 that hate you you're gonna be an awesome baby face for instance bloodline now they're starting

00:59:31.980 to cheer for roman yeah just quick thought off the top of my head roman comes back they bloodline 0.99

00:59:36.820 grounds the shit up and beats him like a dog and he he hits the ring to save roman it would get him 0.99

00:59:42.680 over bam here's the only here's the only baby face be a huge it'll be hulk hogan baby face 1.00

00:59:49.320 personified well here's the only difference i want to ask you about this he's he i don't know 0.97

00:59:54.280 if this has ever really truly existed before but he's he's the only person that's ever shit all

01:00:00.500 day long he's the only person that's ever been hated prior to creating his character in the in

01:00:11.300 the wwe so so that's my question who is like is it as easy to like switch someone who has a blended

01:00:18.280 real life with wwe life into a person that is loved by all when he's not been able to do that

01:00:25.880 outside of the ring does that make sense yes i love him for instance if i'm in the i'm in the 0.51

01:00:31.500 fucking minority that's the five percent there's a couple more over there it's my mom oh that's

01:00:36.800 mama yeah she goes she loves me as far as i know yeah no but it's it's uh the wrestling fans are 0.99

01:00:43.320 very forgive of you know um if chris been walking and do the crap he did and the fans still love him

01:00:49.020 you know they're very forgive of you know i've i've made some major mistakes in my personal life

01:00:53.360 yeah they're very very forgive of but they forgive you but um a situation like this with him

01:01:00.280 for you know for instance if i just wanted to open monday night raw and all of a sudden brock

01:01:05.200 lesnar's music started and brock lesnar's gonna be a baby face too yeah what's to say i don't know

01:01:09.780 who the bad guys are now i don't know all of them but whoever the number one bad guy is

01:01:14.080 yeah maybe who's the number one bad guy probably probably dominic or solo solo sekoa yeah yeah

01:01:20.740 just like if it was the bloodline came out and you know you got the old man standing in the

01:01:25.840 little ring going hey brother welcome to monday night raw whatever i'm doing yeah and and all

01:01:29.980 of a sudden they came out and just grounded the piss out of me and pulled the rag off my bald

01:01:34.800 head and started shaving him up my mustache off if he came and hit the ring and he got the rub the

01:01:39.620 red and yellow rub done doesn't matter where he's been what he's done it's all about getting the

01:01:48.420 right rub at the right time it's all a timing thing so you know it's it i can't wait to see

01:01:53.820 him turn your baby face it's gonna be great but not yet yeah i don't know i have no interest not 0.72

01:01:58.380 yet no yeah i think being a heel is fucking awesome but you gotta realize bro this is not a 0.94

01:02:04.960 work okay this is a shoot what the business is the shoot everybody's going to tell you it's a 0.72

01:02:10.860 work it's not a work what do you mean the business is a shoot i don't i don't know if i if i wrestle

01:03:00.660 Let's already explain.

01:03:01.400 Brother, come over here.

01:03:02.400 You.

01:03:02.780 Come here.

01:03:03.440 Kevin?

01:03:09.240 Good to see you.

01:03:09.660 Okay, if we're here, face me.

01:03:10.860 I'm not getting up.

01:03:11.480 I'm too tired to get up.

01:03:12.700 If you're here,

01:03:13.560 and I was to grab a top wrist lock on you like this, okay?

01:03:16.780 No, no, that's a work.

01:03:17.860 If I go through here.

01:03:19.980 It actually hurts. 0.99

01:03:21.160 Oh, you're going to kill Kevin. 0.99

01:03:22.960 about the tournament of carne asada if i grab come here if i grab the headlock on you and i 0.98

01:03:28.920 grab the headlock like this that's a work if i grab it like this i put that bone against your

01:03:34.100 head oh you know that's a shoot okay see ya no but no the work is when you're working together 0.52

01:03:43.400 i see you know or when you're doing something for real bro if i'm making more money than you

01:03:48.000 that's for real if i'm a baby face and my merchandise is selling more than yours that's

01:03:52.320 that's a shoot yeah so this business back in the day used to be about the money and the miles

01:03:56.780 is how far you travel for how much money you make but at the end of the day

01:04:00.780 if i'm like you know wrestlemania 3 god bless the soul andre i made a lot more money than him

01:04:07.320 you know thank god he never found out you know but that's a shoot bro if somebody's making more

01:04:14.060 money than me i'm not gonna go okay it doesn't matter if i'm a heel and i make less money that's

01:04:18.480 a lot of work to me that's a shoot i see you and i are in the ring and we're fighting and we're 0.77

01:04:22.100 driving the same amount of miles and we're busting our ass and breaking a sweat and getting hurt in 0.69

01:04:27.100 that ring and you make more money than me that's a shoot to me man you know you know i don't care 0.87

01:04:32.140 if i'm a baby face or a good guy it's a work it's it's a work no it's not a work if someone makes

01:04:37.420 more money than you to me that's a shoot but isn't that then isn't it always a shoot yeah thank you

01:04:42.220 that's what i keep saying and you know just because we're working in the ring but the business is a

01:04:46.580 shoot this is about making money right you know so for me it's i've always looked at it that way

01:04:51.100 and when i when i worked for vince senior he always played paid the champion more

01:04:56.660 than the guy he was wrestling so all of a sudden when vince senior passed the torch to vince

01:05:01.740 and all of a sudden you know my first check at the garden was some crazy check you know when i

01:05:07.660 beat the iron chic the next month you know when vince junior was running my check was

01:05:13.020 nowhere near what my first check was.

01:05:15.500 I said, oh, bro, that doesn't work for me.

01:05:17.440 You know, so I kept

01:05:18.820 trying to keep things going as long as I could

01:05:21.220 with Vince Senior's theme.

01:05:23.300 But at the end of the day, for me, the business

01:05:25.180 has always been a shoot because

01:05:26.900 if someone makes more money than me, that's a shoot

01:05:29.280 to me. You know, I just can't

01:05:31.300 go, it's a work. It doesn't matter if

01:05:32.780 his merchandise sells 10 times as much as mine.

01:05:35.320 It's a work.

01:05:37.660 You know what I'm saying? Yeah.

01:05:39.080 So when you turn baby face, watch what happens.

01:05:41.020 Watch how your stuff blows through the roof.

01:05:43.020 I mean, I'm going to be a girl dad, and we have a couple pretty intimate pieces of programming coming out.

01:05:53.780 Some big announcements, and I think people are going to get an inside scoop at my real life that I've never shown before, my family life.

01:06:01.120 And since I'm not really playing a character in the WWE, I'm just amplifying the worst part of myself, which does exist.

01:06:08.340 but it is weird because they know me and then when they were like this audience they know me

01:06:15.720 yeah and then the wwe here i am like being a dickhead yeah and i find the older i get

01:06:22.420 a couple daughters i'm sure i'm gonna have all daughters i'm gonna get softer i i wonder how

01:06:29.440 much i'm gonna be okay with being like dislikable or unlikable like i i don't know it's gonna change

01:06:40.260 it is gonna change it's gonna change the as evil as you can get i mean the worst nastiest heel in

01:06:48.320 the business is always the best baby face so just keep doing your thing and when they switch you bro

01:06:53.460 it's gonna be just insane i'm so excited for roman to come back and for yeah brother they're already

01:06:58.800 turning baby face i haven't done anything they are they are man this show is a shoot for me bro

01:07:04.700 you make way you make way more money than i do oh yo yo i just thought i finally realized

01:07:12.080 dude this is a shoot bro it is i guess it is it's unreal dude i could i just you want to get paid 1.00

01:07:20.600 like him you need to get your ass in the ring man do you know hell no he was he was he got his ass 1.00

01:07:24.720 Oh, I did, I did. 1.00

01:07:25.780 I jumped in in Saudi Arabia.

01:07:27.100 Uso smoked. 0.99

01:07:27.560 I got the crap kicked on me, dude. 0.99

01:07:29.700 I took one bump, and I was like, nah, I don't think I can do it. 0.98

01:07:32.020 I want to do like a Heyman or like a Paul Bear.

01:07:35.180 Just walk around behind him with the belt.

01:07:37.060 What most people don't understand is how forgiving this business is, man.

01:07:40.800 I mean, you get hurt in there all the time.

01:07:43.040 Unforgiving.

01:07:44.040 Unforgiving.

01:07:44.540 No, no, no.

01:07:45.180 Yeah, I'm sorry.

01:07:46.340 Totally unforgiving. 1.00

01:07:47.620 One of the first things I learned, this shit hurts so bad. 1.00

01:07:50.260 It all hurts. 1.00

01:07:51.000 We've had football, over the years, football players trying to come in.

01:07:54.980 Bill Fralick was great.

01:07:56.780 Mongo McMichaels made it.

01:07:58.480 We've had several guys come in.

01:08:00.020 Refrigerator Perry, all of them.

01:08:01.100 They're just in and out.

01:08:02.640 Had all kinds of UFC guys come in.

01:08:04.340 I don't want to drop names.

01:08:05.340 They had a bunch of UFC guys come in.

01:08:07.340 After a day or two, they're going, screw this.

01:08:10.280 The Usos told me, they're like, don't worry about it.

01:08:11.940 The adrenaline will take care of all of it.

01:08:13.920 And it did for a few minutes. 0.99

01:08:16.580 But then later that night, I was like, damn, dude, that fucking hurt. 0.99

01:08:19.380 Yeah, yeah, yeah. 0.99

01:08:21.000 You know, Brock Lesnar adapted real well.

01:08:23.380 You know, Benjamin Shelton, a lot of guys, Kurt Angle, you know.

01:08:26.900 It's a lot about navigating pain, I think I realize.

01:08:30.680 Mentality.

01:08:31.360 Yeah, yeah, both mental and, but honestly, probably just physical.

01:08:35.040 Like, if you have a high physical pain threshold,

01:08:39.220 I think you'll be a little bit better off.

01:08:41.000 Right.

01:08:41.340 Because you're going to get rocked, man.

01:08:43.140 That's why Trump was so good.

01:08:44.760 Yeah.

01:08:45.720 He gets shot and keeps going, dude.

01:08:48.380 Unreal.

01:08:49.320 Insane.

01:08:49.720 yeah he was he's he's tripping man i mean he did you see his did you see his ear by chance

01:08:54.560 is yeah is it is there a piece missing oh no i didn't see it that way no because it's covered

01:08:58.740 well i know but i thought maybe like i would definitely ask him no i'm just so curious because

01:09:03.600 like if he's missing a piece of his ear like on some evander holyfield shit i don't i don't think 0.69

01:09:09.140 i don't think he is because i don't think he even i don't think he even got stitches 0.70

01:09:13.320 then where's where did the blood i don't know i know we weren't going to talk about it a lot

01:09:17.920 on this episode but like man if you if you really pulled just a graze off of that shot dude like

01:09:24.400 god is favored favoring you dude yeah because that's yeah i'm gonna ask him to see it i'm

01:09:30.140 we'll probably see him next week down at palm beach please so i'm gonna ask him to take a

01:09:34.180 picture of the damn thing yeah for sure yeah i tried to get i tried to get the hat that he was 0.60

01:09:38.540 wearing oh really i'm a collector so the first question i asked to his team was like 0.99

01:09:42.820 they're glad he's alive where's the hat who has the hat yeah that's crazy give you a million for 0.94

01:09:47.900 it right now i offered over two million for it they wouldn't they wouldn't no shit i believe 0.97

01:09:52.420 it's the most important artifact in american history yes that hat and i bet it has his blood 0.54

01:09:57.600 on it wow well the car jfk was in would probably be up there you want one it's true it's not as

01:10:03.180 easy to put in a display case i got something i was gonna get something crazy at home i got a pair 0.74

01:10:06.800 of yellow boots that have andre the giant's blood on them oh shit can you imagine cloning that big 0.97

01:10:11.780 Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, bro. 0.99

01:10:13.020 Cloning him, let's clone him, we probably could.

01:10:16.240 Yeah, that'd be crazy, right?

01:10:17.440 Are you into collectibles?

01:10:19.280 Not really, bro, I mean, I gave away so much stuff, you know,

01:10:23.200 like when I was the champion, we used to do a lot of promos,

01:10:28.300 a lot more than they do now.

01:10:30.180 So if I was coming to the Capital Center in Washington,

01:10:33.900 I'd do four or five promos, three minute promos.

01:10:36.720 Four weeks from now, brother, I'll be at the Capital Center.

01:10:38.860 Three weeks from now, I'm training, I'm hanging off the Washington Memorial.

01:10:42.400 Two weeks from now, you know what, I was just training with Bill Clinton.

01:10:45.420 And you know what, we took that blue dress and we had a picnic.

01:10:48.320 You know, one week from now and tonight's the night.

01:10:51.700 So I do all these promos and I would sit in a room with me and

01:10:55.320 Gene for like four or five hours.

01:10:57.500 And I just bang one after another, one after another. 0.99

01:10:59.320 Because when you tell stories every week, and you get the asses in seats, 0.99

01:11:04.420 then you walk out there and just pick your money up. 0.96

01:11:07.100 That's easy.

01:11:07.620 You just gotta fill those buildings.

01:11:09.380 So I used to go through those title belts, like every three or four weeks.

01:11:14.820 I just sweat through them.

01:11:17.000 And so it was, what was I talking about again?

01:11:19.900 Yeah, I don't know, cuz this keeps happening to me as well.

01:11:22.120 Well, it's early.

01:11:22.620 We had a long night last night.

01:11:23.940 What the hell was that?

01:11:24.620 What was I talking about?

01:11:25.220 I'm even surprised we're all here.

01:11:26.220 You're not listening.

01:11:27.540 Can I ask you one more question?

01:11:29.860 Yeah.

01:11:30.040 Is there anybody- What was I talking about?

01:11:32.620 Collectibles.

01:11:33.360 No, I don't.

01:11:34.320 But, no, but I gave all my stuff away.

01:11:37.980 And I used to get these belts, like, every month Vince would have to make me another belt.

01:11:41.960 Because I would sweat through the leather.

01:11:43.620 My yellow tights would get brown.

01:11:45.360 And I would just, I would stay in soaking wet.

01:11:47.740 So I was giving them away for motorcycles and cars and my friends.

01:11:51.380 And I'd just give them away, you know.

01:11:53.020 It's like, I gave one to some guy at Harley Davis and he gave me 10 motorcycles, you know.

01:11:56.880 Oh, my God.

01:11:57.380 And so just, it was crazy back then.

01:11:59.560 I can't even imagine.

01:12:01.060 Yeah.

01:12:01.320 I cannot even imagine the things that you've seen.

01:12:03.420 Is there anybody that you haven't met?

01:12:06.900 Because I'm sure you've met, shook hands, partied with everybody.

01:12:10.100 Is there anybody that you haven't met that you always wanted to?

01:12:13.160 Do you have any people that you look at, rock stars, idols?

01:12:17.760 Probably the one guy that I really wanted to meet.

01:12:20.680 Actually, there are two.

01:12:21.360 One guy I wanted to meet was Elvis.

01:12:23.880 When I started wrestling in Memphis, he used to ride a Harley and put a helmet on at night.

01:12:30.360 He'd go out at night and ride his Harley around.

01:12:31.980 and then he'd come to the Mid-South Coliseum

01:12:34.140 and sit way up in the top of the building

01:12:35.940 and watch wrestling you know

01:12:37.700 and I came along went to Memphis

01:12:39.980 right after he passed away you know 0.94

01:12:42.020 I said damn if I'd have came here 0.70

01:12:44.180 sooner because I was wrestling in North Florida 0.97

01:12:46.060 Pensacola and they were trying to get me to come

01:12:48.140 to Memphis because when I was young

01:12:50.100 I had a look to me I was really big

01:12:51.940 I was about 80 pounds heavier than I am now

01:12:54.000 and taller so I had this look even though I was green

01:12:56.180 they still put me in all the main events

01:12:58.280 and when they told me Elvis

01:13:00.120 was up there all the time

01:13:01.580 and he i said oh i wish i'd have met him hulk hogan times elvis is potentially the most american

01:13:07.720 collaboration actually that could ever exist there's literally no one you could plug into

01:13:12.720 either spot yeah and the other guy i really wanted to meet was john wayne and of course he died way

01:13:18.040 before i was old enough to make a move but i bought his limo john wayne's limo oh you did

01:13:23.920 yeah so that was uh kind of cool i wanted to ask you just uh kind of talking about something earlier

01:13:30.680 when you were working with the rock and you met him for that first time in that warehouse and you

01:13:34.600 kind of caught his vibe uh did you could you tell that Dwayne Johnson was a star oh god yes brother

01:13:42.400 oh my god yeah he had that oh he had the it factor bro I mean you either have it or you don't you got

01:13:48.560 it you sure I'm positive you got it you had the it factor brother you have no I'm serious I'm not

01:13:56.560 joking you really do thank you your brother's got it too yeah oh i think he has it more than me i

01:14:01.600 think dude if he if jake had my athletic ability he would be such a good wrestler too big a cap

01:14:10.000 just just just the just the way he like talks and even just looks that big thick beard i don't know

01:14:14.960 if you saw it the other day with mike perry him and my brother i'm gonna tell you what brother

01:14:20.320 going back and forth like that's actually a good point yeah you say that he he he might be better

01:14:26.020 at the promo side than you are but you're just way more athletic he can't do the stuff maybe a

01:14:32.300 clone of you some sort of hybrid clone of you too yeah with andre the giant i'll tell you what

01:14:36.860 i got a move named after you no way inspired by you it's called it's called the hulk logan

01:14:43.340 i love it yeah yeah i uh i do the ear i run off the ropes and i do a split because i'm pretty

01:14:50.880 flexible and i bring my leg way up and just land on the dude and then i flex while i'm on top of

01:14:55.720 that's awesome yeah i've never pinned anyone with it it's more for it's more kind of flashy 0.66

01:14:59.120 mad disrespectful just balls in the chest yeah balls in the chest there you go yeah yeah yeah

01:15:04.500 but the rock bro we're talking about him he's he's he had the it factor and in the ring man i 1.00

01:15:09.800 don't know what it was about that guy bro but he's you know and i'm i'm not trying to kiss your ass 0.91

01:15:14.420 but instinct you guys have instinct and that's what he had a lot of guys and i don't want to

01:15:21.240 drop names but a lot of guys have been in the wrestling business 25 30 years they're friends

01:15:24.960 they never figure it out they think they're superstars and made a certain amount of money

01:15:30.600 and but they never figured the art form out they still talk before i mean i walk into catering

01:15:36.140 and they'll be talking to the guy they're going to wrestle for two hours and they got a seven 0.98

01:15:40.140 minute match yeah what the fuck are you talking about for two hours in here you know they made me 0.99

01:15:45.040 boas with me they made me rehearse at the republican national convention they screwed me 0.99

01:15:49.760 episode about almost couldn't talk yeah because they made me go on a back room with a plexiglass

01:15:55.140 podium and a teleprompter in front of me on each side of the stage and the lady was really nice

01:16:00.360 the stage manager there must have been 20 people in the room and they wanted me to read this copy

01:16:05.080 and i'm like i don't even speak like this yeah yeah you know and and i got to the point where

01:16:09.460 i started getting self-conscious and i think they thought i was going to shit the bed i was so bad

01:16:15.080 and then my wife saw me i went in the back room there was a band playing so i just got into the

01:16:19.740 music you know i just i just got away from everybody yeah i needed about five minutes

01:16:24.580 to get in the zone i'm like all right brother let's go yep you know and once i got there i was

01:16:29.480 like good and then once i did my thing it was cool but you know i'm just glad they didn't pull 0.99

01:16:36.460 me off the stage because i wasn't reading the telephone you hate rehearsals oh fuck dude 0.97

01:16:40.840 when i was working with vince they had me open the show a lot so you know i'd be standing there 0.99

01:16:49.500 with the curtains on the paragraph then the music would start real american all of a sudden a writer

01:16:55.020 would come up to me and hand me a stack of pages like this that were hot the paper still had looked

01:16:59.860 the fence i'm going really i just throw the paper in there and just walk out you know well he trusted

01:17:04.880 you yeah he just he knew you know well i mean these days i think especially with all the corporate

01:17:10.720 guidelines commercial bullshit they can't they want to know what to expect and i don't know how

01:17:16.360 many people they trust to go out there and and not say something you're not supposed to 0.99

01:17:19.880 that would turn off a sponsor or something you know publicly traded company as well yeah right 0.98

01:17:24.980 you got to answer to people real corporate shit yeah it is it's super corporate you mentioned it 0.91

01:17:30.800 suits like walking around but but at the same time though it's like not still you know it's not it's 0.96

01:17:38.400 it's not a union it's got that it's still got that that core yeah i and i can feel it i i definitely

01:17:45.240 like prefer i like thrive in those environments yeah you uh were you at wrestlemania 40.

01:17:51.320 who wrestled no this was uh cody roman no no i didn't i wasn't there did you watch it yeah

01:17:57.960 some people are saying it's the greatest wrestlemania of all time

01:18:02.040 they probably weren't they probably weren't alive when i was wrestling

01:18:06.200 i will say that that was a phenomenal event you gotta make you gotta make a little cameo

01:18:13.000 comeback appearance oh you never know man oh you never know oh a little tease yeah your shirt

01:18:21.160 who we got razor ramon i mean that's when you basically king holly hogan oh i was in daytona

01:18:26.840 yeah yeah who's the third man i i told none of these guys they had no idea it was me

01:18:33.240 they had no actually no idea they were they were out in the ring not knowing who the third guy was

01:18:39.240 that had to be mind-blowing i told eric bischoff we agreed don't tell anybody it's me it's hard to

01:18:45.780 keep secrets nowadays i don't know if you noticed but like stuff gets leaked stuff gets leaked

01:18:50.640 online social media like it's almost like there's there's a mole in the wwe creative team that like

01:18:57.000 literally leaves the meeting and like leaks it to these wrestling uh sites it's it's it's it's

01:19:04.080 it's disappointing it's becoming harder and harder to keep things fresh well this was just between

01:19:08.440 me and eric you know yeah but also how do you hide you that's other thing well i was just

01:19:14.360 um i was out in la basically shooting the one of my blockbuster movies salmon with muscles you know

01:19:22.360 and i i saw nash come out you know i saw scott come out yeah i said okay this looks like a shoot

01:19:28.760 you know it looks like he's working with the other company and i called big kev saw big kev come out

01:19:33.960 And Eric, you know, had asked me if I'd turn heel.

01:19:37.080 I told him to pound sand, you know.

01:19:39.600 And then I saw that going on.

01:19:41.140 I called Eric up.

01:19:41.960 I said, who's your third man?

01:19:43.760 You know, and Eric goes, oh, well, we're going to go with Sting.

01:19:45.760 I said, bro, he's not WWE.

01:19:47.940 I mean, you know, Scott and Kev are WWE.

01:19:50.480 Sting's got nothing, you know.

01:19:52.220 So I'm WWE from head to toe.

01:19:53.780 I'm the third man.

01:19:55.440 Eric goes, really?

01:19:56.140 Will you do it?

01:19:56.660 I said, yeah, I'll do it.

01:19:57.360 And Eric didn't even believe I would do it.

01:20:00.180 So I flew in on a Learjet down to Daytona.

01:20:03.960 And basically hit out in a hotel room.

01:20:06.980 And I told Eric, call me, you know, right before when the last match is in the ring before the main event.

01:20:15.540 Because, you know, these guys, there was going to be the last match.

01:20:18.120 Then the main event would rest for 15, 20 minutes before I went out there because I would just walk out.

01:20:22.860 But Eric didn't even think I was coming from the hotel.

01:20:25.580 So he had Sting ready to go.

01:20:27.900 So they didn't believe I would do it.

01:20:29.960 even eric was going you know because there's several times i've i had creative control you

01:20:33.960 know and i never used it never used it the whole time but um and i didn't use it this night either

01:20:42.000 but um when i walked out scott and kevin almost shit yeah because they had no idea i was coming

01:20:49.360 out you know and so it was it was kind of cool but the reaction we got from the crowd when i

01:20:54.980 when i saw him throwing all the stuff in the ring and me and gene was holding the microphone

01:20:59.780 interviewing me and i said just like the crap in this ring this represents all you people out here 0.92

01:21:05.140 i said i was selling out the world when you guys were bumming gas to get the high school brother 0.99

01:21:10.260 and i was just running off the top of my head saying whatever dumb i could think of 0.58

01:21:14.740 and then when i saw me and gene get hit in the nose and he started bleeding you know

01:21:18.180 i said i told scott kev i said bro we might have a little bit of a ride in here

01:21:21.940 You know, I really need to, like, slow down with my role here

01:21:26.040 because I was getting pretty aggressive verbally, you know.

01:21:29.200 And, you know, once again, none of that stuff is scripted.

01:21:31.320 So, like, my wife says, I might say anything, you know, once I get out there.

01:21:35.080 But it was cool.

01:21:36.820 That night was a huge night.

01:21:38.440 And on the way out, I'm walking to the ring, right,

01:21:43.140 and all of a sudden my mind is totally focused on who I am and what I am

01:21:48.480 because when I walk through that curtain, I'm Hulk Hogan, brother.

01:21:51.940 Because if I don't believe it, nobody's gonna believe it.

01:21:55.380 And I'm totally Hulk Hogan, man, I've gone through my transformation.

01:21:58.820 I'm this crazy alien, and I'm going out there. 1.00

01:22:01.300 And all of a sudden, I went, angle alert, you dumb ass, you're supposed to be wrestling. 1.00

01:22:06.180 You're hiding in the hotel room so long, you still have your cowboy boots on. 1.00

01:22:10.580 You've never wrestled in cowboy boots, and now I'm walking to the ring,

01:22:13.700 going, this is gonna be the greatest thing for my career, or I'm done.

01:22:17.140 This is gonna destroy my career, saying the training prayers and vitamins.

01:22:20.660 i did it for the money you know and all of a sudden i'm walking down there i got into my own 0.91

01:22:25.980 head i said holy shit i got cowboy boots on i forgot to put my wrestling boots i'm supposed

01:22:29.740 to be wrestling but it was like an angle where i almost screwed myself up overthinking stuff on 0.97

01:22:34.400 the way just walking to the ring but they were shocked when they saw me come through the curtain

01:22:38.320 for sure but i just like to do stuff like that you know it's just that's why you're who you are

01:22:43.720 yeah yeah i i'll let you go here in a second i i do i do have one question uh because

01:22:49.180 like i said earlier one of the most impressive things about what you've been able to do is just

01:22:53.660 like infiltrate culture in a way that cannot be erased or forgotten or replicated or replicated

01:23:00.560 the biggest thing ever ever as someone who actually lived through it i'm like you the biggest thing

01:23:06.700 yeah the biggest personality ever well you live through it right and then like my generation and

01:23:12.580 the current generation is still experiencing the ripple effects of your career it's it is insane 0.99

01:23:18.920 and i will kiss your ass and gas you up it's incredible and i'm taking notes and i'm i'm just 0.99

01:23:24.280 sitting here so inspired um but i guess my question is did you have that goal to infiltrate 0.99

01:23:31.220 culture in that way not just not just with wrestling i'm sure there was a point where you

01:23:35.280 realize like oh i'm good at this and people are biting but then also like the movies the merge

01:23:41.340 all the ancillary stuff that comes with it like rocky yeah rocky movie yeah that that you

01:23:47.320 potentially like sacrificed your career at the time made it look like that decision like was

01:23:53.280 that a goal of yours and and did you realize that you could land among the stars if you shot for the 0.95

01:23:59.020 moon well i did i did some really stupid stuff you know like when i was playing in a rock and 0.97

01:24:04.600 roll band i was a huge wrestling fan okay growing up because we we didn't have anything we just had 0.96

01:24:10.560 baseball you know we didn't have the bucks we didn't have hockey when i was growing up

01:24:13.920 so many years ago so i was i was a huge wrestling fan and one of the big things big mistakes i made

01:24:20.760 is i was a studio musician out of atlanta was century artist so i left here and went on the

01:24:26.720 road and when i came back here when i was in high school they had all these really good bands you

01:24:30.660 know so i grabbed the best keyboard player from one band best lead singer best drummer and put

01:24:36.820 this band together and then the wrestlers started coming because when the band would play on the

01:24:41.040 beach or the band would play in north tampa or saint pete we had this crazy following you know

01:24:45.660 to come see us and the wrestlers started showing up i was scared to death of these guys man

01:24:49.620 cauliflower ears broken noses teeth knocked out they're all over 300 pounds and if you want to

01:24:55.180 get in the wrestling business there's no chance there's only like eight guys in the dressing room 0.99

01:25:00.060 they don't have a performance center to go work out at you know so like a dumbass i started telling 0.92

01:25:05.340 everybody i'm gonna be a wrestler and i was running my mouth in tampa so they took me down 0.69

01:25:11.300 to the sportatorium here over on albany kennedy about two minutes away from here they got me in

01:25:16.480 the ring they exercised me to death and then hero matsuda got and put his uh put his elbow on my

01:25:22.440 shin and posted my toe and broke my leg so that was my first day you know and i had real long

01:25:27.960 blonde hair because i was playing in a band they said don't ever come back again so i went home 0.95

01:25:32.400 and my dad beat my ass worse than they did down here i mean you're having a bad day yeah yeah 0.96

01:25:37.660 yeah things were different yeah and he said don't ever let anybody hurt you again yeah so i got my 0.98

01:25:44.040 mind right i cut my hair short i went back and then they couldn't run me off you know but when

01:25:49.160 i started i just wanted to make a living you know i just i just want to be a wrestler and make a

01:25:53.220 payday then when i got in the business and i started seeing you know it was kind of boring

01:25:59.380 and people would just sit there, and the cigar smokers and beer drinkers

01:26:03.780 would be in the front row, and they just wanted to see blood,

01:26:06.120 and it was kind of like, okay, well, I can do this.

01:26:08.560 You know, I was wrestling preliminary matches, and they put a mask on me,

01:26:11.820 called me the Super Destroyer, because I was in really good shape

01:26:15.380 when I was younger, and they wanted to protect me

01:26:18.360 in case I did become something someday.

01:26:20.860 And so once I started wrestling, you know,

01:26:23.400 I went through a bunch of different changes.

01:26:26.100 I went and I became Terry Boulder and then this promoter in Atlanta named me Sterling

01:26:31.600 Golden, you know, and that's all, that's a whole nother story, but I was in the ring

01:26:39.180 one day and when I slammed people, I looked at the crowd and the, and the look got a better

01:26:44.420 reaction than the move.

01:26:45.980 And I went, Oh, wait a minute.

01:26:47.320 You know, then I did something else and I did something in the, in the look to the crowd

01:26:52.060 got a better reaction. 0.99

01:26:52.920 So I said, okay, they want to see the bullshit, you know? 0.99

01:26:55.340 and being a musician and being in front of crowds and talking and stuff. 0.99

01:26:58.920 I was used to being in front of people. So, you know,

01:27:02.300 all of a sudden I started changing the way I worked in the ring and started

01:27:06.120 mugging the crowd more. So all of a sudden it started, you know,

01:27:10.040 getting a little crazy and I started figuring it out.

01:27:12.500 Then when I got fired from WWF, I was a bad guy at the time.

01:27:16.820 I just sold out Shea stadium with Andre the giant in 78 and I got fired a

01:27:21.620 couple of weeks later. And then when I went to Minnesota,

01:27:25.340 i started this hulking mania crap i would go to the mall and have t-shirts made 0.98

01:27:29.440 and i started to figure out the shirt and the hulking up and then once i came up i wouldn't 0.99

01:27:35.400 let anybody stop me you know once i came up you know they could beat on me do whatever but i

01:27:40.880 wouldn't let them stop me i just plow through and do my comeback and finish you know whatever

01:27:44.240 the finish was but when i got back to new york and i walked in the garden they were they were

01:27:51.860 selling any merchandise and no music so i said something to vince about playing music no we're

01:27:57.080 gonna play music here so i ran up to the sound guy i gave him 500 bucks i gave me the eye of 0.99

01:28:01.300 the tiger i said crank this shit no way i said crank this shit gangster yeah so they cranked 0.99

01:28:07.000 that music that don't don't and the place just blew yeah the place just blew can you imagine 1.00

01:28:13.560 the execs if he did that today bro copyright for millions oh scotty brothers wasn't happy with me

01:28:19.280 at all yeah yeah no they weren't happy at all so anyway now we do this thing i pull it off

01:28:24.520 things go perfectly thank god i did blow my knee out that night there was a board up in the gardens

01:28:30.380 last time i jumped up and dropped a knee on anybody's chest because i blew my left knee out

01:28:34.040 it was crazy i thought i was gonna have to tell anybody but i wrapped it up and

01:28:38.700 did whatever i had to do to kill the pain and uh i started you know getting over with the character

01:28:47.380 and the music i realized i was on to something and then all of a sudden when the people like

01:28:51.580 right guard started coming to me to do commercials and the a team was calling me to be on the show

01:28:56.460 with mr t that's how we hooked him i did a couple episodes and talked him into wrestling

01:28:59.800 and just all these things started happening all the wrestlers wanted music so jimmy hart of course

01:29:05.300 yeah keep on dancing recorded sun studios with elvis and everybody back in the day jim he's like

01:29:10.440 81 years old jimmy you know wrote all the temp music like sean michaels music everybody's music

01:29:15.640 all the wrestlers wanted music then we started then started making Hulkamania t-shirts and then

01:29:21.260 Vince started making it for everybody because Vince wasn't into it at the time but he caught

01:29:24.980 on real quick then all of a sudden I realized this is a monster for sure and I realized I had

01:29:31.140 a chance to change the game and once we started that cartoon on CBS that pissed off all the beer

01:29:37.560 drinkers and all the cigar smokers and then once we said this is an exhibition we wanted to get

01:29:43.880 rid of all the commissioners because like the boxing commissioners you had there last night

01:29:47.900 they were killing us they were on paydays they're wanting to be paid under the table

01:29:51.680 guys that couldn't pass different tests you know sometimes you have to pay people off to make sure

01:29:57.400 people pass tests it just got crazy so Vince deregulated wrestling and when he said it was

01:30:02.300 an exhibition that really pissed a lot of the the people off and then we had the family show up at

01:30:08.300 ringside with the kids not only would they buy the tickets they'd buy hundreds of dollars worth

01:30:12.600 the merchandise and stuff that's when i realized that it was bigger than me just being a wrestler

01:30:18.780 that's when i realized i had a chance you know to to change the game completely and the character

01:30:25.080 become larger in life and i i knew once sports illustrated called me and i was the only wrestler

01:30:30.340 that's ever been on the cover i said okay this changes everything you know but i had no idea

01:30:35.540 when i started that it was going to turn into what it turned into i just wanted a job i just

01:30:40.160 wanted to be a wrestler and make a living, but it just blew through the roof.
