I guess I started a trend. Now they have ladder matches and guys are jumping off stages. They do some pretty wild stuff, brother.

I miss all the WrestleManias.

I'm not a glory guy about anything. I just wanted to work to support my family.

Back in the old-school days when I learned back in the '60s, the psychology of our business back in those days was totally different than the psychology of the young kids today. They're rushed. They don't have their timing down. Us old-school guys, we'd go 30 minutes, 45 minutes, an hour.

I'm not a glory guy or anything like that, but it was such a great pleasure for me to wrestle Bob Backland, the champion at the time.

Jumping off the cage at the Garden, you couldn't even hear yourself. I loved it so much. Things like that just stick in your heart.
