He’s got a bachelors degree in history and, more importantly, was smart enough with the money he made to retire early. Rumor has it that’s he’s still living comfortably off of his WCW money. Besides his Rolex and nice home he is frugal with his money. To me, that’s a smart man.

@@Dodo-so8dz I can understand why Fedor would be an interesting guest for a lot of MMA fans. Personally I used to like the guy a lot, up until he turned out to be an outspoken supporter of russia invading my country. And with him also being an outspoken supporter of serbia's chauvinistic imperialism, I'm not quite sure Mirko would be at ease being in the same room with Fedor, if you meant them being on the same interview. Just my two cents, don't get me wrong, I understand for majority of people that all doesn't matter.

Rampage is surprisingly good as a podcaster. Unlike other guys who want to do this, he does a great job of letting the guest be the guest. He doesn't quibble with Tank about his boy Tito... just lets him talk. In the Briggs podcast, he doesn't start going back and forth... again, treating his guest (Briggs) like the guest. A lot of guys like Rampage would be talking like they the guest.

"Brutally honest" - the guy is a world class bullshitter who's constantly trotting out his hairbrained speculation and claiming it's fact. The Goodridge stoppage was brutal but it was also only 1, maybe 2 seconds too long at worst - so of course that proves it was a conspiracy by the UFC to teach the guy in his camp a lesson. All his stories are revised to make him the invincible badass who was so hard done by, and he also has to tear down every guy who beat him or was more successful than him. Don Frye kicked my ass because he paid Mark Hall to take a dive (seems like it would make more sense to pay off Goodridge and avoid the 11 minute war, but whatever). Cabbage had a secret agent in my camp (how else would he know to knee the shit out of my face?). Then there's Bas and Ken Shamrock (the real legends of my era); well all their fights in Pancrase were fixed (ignore that I bowed out when I had the opportunity to actually fight Bas). Oh, and I made Tito cry and discovered in my exhaustive research that all his wrestling accolades are fake. He talks utter shit non-stop and never has a kind word for anyone but himself. I actually liked Tank until he started doing shoot interviews and I could see what a toxic personality he is. Here's brutal honesty: he was a limited fighter whose sporting peak was giving Don Frye a bloody nose, and he never got over the hump because it was easier to pretend the world was out to get him than develop a complete skillset.

I pulled up giddy wanting an autograph and trying to talk to him. I walked in Applebees with him and they quit serving alcohol. A couple guys knew who he was and we all got into this guys car and went to a local bar. I wasn’t even 21. I’m 45 now. Tank snuck me in and he got wasted. After the bar closed we drove him back to the Hilton. He was smashed. But no one messed with him at the bar. A few people knew who he was too.

STEVEN NEAL Ended up playing for the NEW ENGLAND PATRIOTS with TOM BRADY. To transition from not playing college football to wrestling then playing in the NFL is one hell of a athlete

As a fan of the ufc from the early days as a kid this may well be one of the best podcasts I’ve heard hearing stories from the early days lots of stuff I’ve never heard and then his time in wcw with hogan and flair, to literally flatline from a stroke tank is doing amazing he is not even recognisable let alone to tell stories for two hours loved it 👏🏻👏🏻

We needed about 3 more hours to get this man's entire story. Tank is THE legend of legends.

This is low-key actually the best UFC podcast. Current fighters and former fighters and Legends of the sport will all turn up because of the respect they have for RAMPAGE

Tank seems like the friend you want who’s funny as hell, calls it like it is, and could beat anyone’s ass who talked shit at the bar.

This was a great interview. With all of the issues Tank has had health wise, strokes, transplants etc, he is doing exceptionally well. His mind seems to be in excellent shape. GOD bless him and I pray that he continues to improve.

I am normally the biggest Anti-Tank person, due to his poor sportsmanship, etc....but after watching this, I have changed my perception. This was a great interview and puts Tank in a positive light. I actually LIKE TANK NOW, which is something I thought would NEVER come out my mouth. Please bring Tank back for a Part 2 Excellent show & Guest

Death will do that to people. Everything gets put into perspective. Most people who have NDE's comeback very on the slab very different that when they were a week before the event(s).

Things Tank have said about Tito: -Tito stole a cheque out of Tank's truck and cashed it for $500 -Tito would call Tank's favourite bar, confirm he was there, then go steal from his house -Tito apparently starred in a low-budget porno called Rugburns back in the day

Everyone (besides Rampage) knows that Tito is a liar, conman, and theif. Tito is the type of guy to steal from you and help you look for it.

I bought and read all three of Tank’s books and they are fascinating and absolutely hilarious. For legal reasons Tank has to pretend it’s “fiction” but every event is exactly how it went down in real life including “Cheeto” (Tito) “Bart Shady” (Art davie) “Vinny diamond” (Ken shamrock) “Sea Lion Beach” (Seal Beach) “Sea Lion Beach Liquors” (Seal beach Liquors-which is still there today) “Happening Beach” (Huntington Beach) “Wong Beach State” (Long Beach State) and everyone and everywhere else from that time. The stories of the main character, Walter Foxx (Tank) are *exactly* the same as the stories from this show. Plus A LOT more. Details of his time in jail, how he came to find the UFC, daily drinking and driving with his pitbull companion, his dealings with Bob Meyerwitz (forgot bobs name in the book), big John being a bitch and on and on. I cannot wait for the fourth book about “Walter’s” adventures in pro wrestling. Buy the books. You help support a pioneer while having some fantastic entertainment to read on the beach or while camping this summer.
