Dr Tom Prichard on The Biggest Bully, Hardest Partiers, Best Road Agent & Harshest Rib

[@wiseguy8100]

I feel like this guy just came out of nowhere with all these great interviews. Maybe I just haven't heard of him but well done sir!

[@Myrzghe]

I feel like that happens all the time. As someone who just watches this stuff casually, all of a sudden there is one guy from England that does all the best shoot interviews, another one that has crazy levels of backstage info, and "all the best wrestlers today come from traveller families in the UK, they have done promos for hundreds of years, everyone knows that."

[@ibzanarroyo704]

3:35 Bret has said in his book that in 93 when he owen and mr Hughes would arrive 5 mins late, George the animal said Ure late, Ure being fined. That’s why Tom said no comment to the George comment the interviewer gave cause he was one of the agents that was a stooge who did fined people regularly.

[@CraigSmithII]

Bret also told the story about how Macho Man & Owen got him back when they found out Bret got fined $500. They snuck in George's room & took his Haliburton briefcase, which had his passports, colonscomy bags & his medicine. When Bret was driving past a bridge, Owen rolled the window down & threw the briefcase out

@Jj Dillon well honestly from one of your shoot interviews Conrad Thompson's mentioned it quite a few times on his different podcasts if you go back watch a lot of shoot interviews involving WCW people whenever they bring up the bar stuff yes Ric flair drank a lot of kamikazes and he ordered tons of them but he was caught several times when he thought no one was looking pouring them into potted plants you know pouring them out on the ground and then acting like he was doing them cuz there's no way he could have drank as much as he did and not died.

[@Scorch1028]

Ludvig Borga was a "heel" both inside and outside of the ring. Many of the guys who worked with him said he had a terrible personality. As a pro wrestling fan, I liked the character "Ludvig Borga", but the real Tony Halme was not pleasant to be around. His UFC pre-fight training consisted of "lifting weights" and not much else. He was a modest boxer, but he was quickly destroyed by Randy Couture in the Octagon. JBL was a "poor excuse for a bully", because he got his ass beaten by "multiple wrestlers" backstage.
