My Father was a Jobber, back in the 50s & 60s. So many more threats from fans then. He would tell me stories. It was like running a gauntlet, to & from ring. People with razorblades on their shoes, kicking your legs. Seats that go right up to ringside. Narrow apron outside of ropes & no mats on floor. Working small towns, at a stock yard or national guard armory. The good & bad guys, staying together & trying to get safely to their cars. Finding a place to eat & keep an eye on each other. They were Tough & a little crazy. Special kind of brotherhood. And yes, what Greg said. If they could get someone to come through the ropes, they owned them. Even told me that people have gotten so excited, that they would have heart attacks. Dad's gone now, but he would WOW me with these stories.

I clearly remember seeing Greg in 1982 at New Britain High School in New Britain, Connecticut. He was walking through the crowd in a school hallway. I was with my dad. Went up to say hello & Greg kind of growled and said "get away from me." My dad yelled "hey!" Greg stopped and turned around. My dad grabbed my arm and said "c'mon let's go." The Hammer stayed in character. Miss those old days of the WWF coming to high school gymnasiums.

I was at a match in the Boston Garden in the early eighties. Greg was walking up the ramp from the ring to the dressing room and a fan took a swing at him.. Greg hit the guy so hard that he got knocked 2 rows back. Then about a half dozen security guards swarmed over the fan and finished the job. They beat the guy unconscious, and dragged him out of the Garden. Back in those days, the security guards were just local guys who were just looking for an excuse to beat on someone. It happened at least once or twice per event.

Bruno said David deserved it because WWF’s policy was that if a wrestler hit a fan they got fired, but he was upset that Greg Valentine and Randy Savage had hit fans and weren’t fired for it, that David was the only one who got fired for striking a fan. Bruno said he believed the fan was planted to spit on David just to give Vince an excuse to fire David when he struck the fan for spitting on him.

The story I am talking about has to do with early 90s WCW and Erik Watts. Rude always wanted to see if guys in the locker room could beat him in anything physical. Rude came up behind Erik (who was on the phone) in the locker room one time and Rude asked him, “How would you get out of this move?” Erik then got out of the move and slammed Rude against a pole. Rude was impressed yet pissed. Turns out Rude messed up his shoulder during this. Rude then proceeds to violently push Erik off but still acted like everything was cool. He then went outside the locker room where the fan was and then punched out the fan, breaking the fan’s palate. Some say the fan may have been talking smack to the obvious Rick Rude character but Rick himself took it personally in that moment.

After one of the preliminary matches, as one of the heels (can’t remember his name)was walking to the dressing room, an older friend in his teens went to yell at the guy. The heel then reaches out and grabs my friend by his shirt & starts shaking him like a rag doll. My friend came back to his seat & his shirt is messed up, I could see it was real & he was a bit shook up too. Maybe 15 minutes later security came up to my friend & asked him to come with them, the wrestler came back out to apologize & they shook hands & that was it. I think the wrestler was either Black Gordman or Great Goliath but can’t remember 100%. But the guy was a heel with a latin persona.

Lowell Memorial Auditorium, mid 80s 3rd row on the main aisle to the Ring! Mr Valentine is walking to the ring, shorter than I was expecting but also Way Bigger than I thought. Like a walking Working Mans Muscle! This drunk on the other side of the aisle smacks GV on the back of his head-hard too. In a micro-second the guy was one handed dragged over the 4 ft fencing by his neck and deposited face first onto the concrete floor, hard too! LOL! GV Managed to give the guy a few light slaps off the back of his head before Security and Cops dragged the hemorrhaging (from the nose mouth and rest of his face) jerk away. I do know he (drunk) was arrested so it was real. Best story of the night: Harley Race gets suplexed right in front of us and in the process a huge rope of Snot comes flying out his nose. Up it goes in an arc, seemed like slo motion and its coming our way. Hits this kid in front of us right on the shoulder even though he was attempting to evade it. Sucker must of been 8 inches long and draped on this kids shoulder. Probably 12 - 13 yrs old, old enough to laugh at. He turns to see if the horror was real and now one end of it is sticking to his face! The kids now catatonic as my buddy Dave leans over to tell him "You know Pal, having the King Of Wrestling huck a big snot on you is quite an Honor"! The kind words didn't help! LOL

I wish todays wrestlers were that good that the audience believed it was real. Now everyone wants to be a superstar. No one wants to be the loser.

The world is completely different today tho. Everyone knows wrestling is a show now. Even back then, you really have to question the sanity and intelligence of an adult who considered wrestling to be real when it’s obviously choreographed “combat”. Wrestlers are clearly pulling their punches

wait, you are telling me some guy standing around and not moving while his opponent takes the time to scale a 15 foot ladder and then jump off of it isn't real?

@@MrRabiddogg No the stunts are real and the acting is real it is just that it is not a real fight, like if we were to meat and then fight each other for real not a staged fight like in a movie. but like in a bar and it was you or me and the winner walked away and the looser ended up in a morgue. There are times when you can tell that the other guy pissed off the other and they start to fight for real inside a staged event.
