Tony is lying about how they met. His wife’s daughter confirmed it.

Tony, as far as your reputation for being slow, or not very smart.... You could have fooled me, sir. You seem incredibly smart, very articulate and you seem like a likeable guy. Great interview guys!

NacheMan, it was all a part of the wrestling act. The WWF are all actors, don't be so naive.

[@allwightallwong5045]

CASTDOWNSATAN Well then for an actor he did quite a good job convincing people

[@mylesa.williams6281]

Tony Atlas is a good man and a stand up guy. I enjoyed this interview the way he shared his insight along with experience of his life and career he shared. I was very touched and sad about the murder of Bruiser Brody but very impressed with Tony Atlas being the only person to help him. I'm glad he went to the beach and stayed there all night after the stabbing along with everything else that went on that evening and never going back in his hotel room if not for the wrestler Vega he would have been murdered. God bless Mr. USA Tony Atlas

[@allwightallwong5045]

Myles Williams Right. Funny how idiots accused him of leaving without testifying in court not knowing the reason behind it. They tell it as if everyone else their was concerned and he was the only witness. Smfh

[@r2153]

Tony isn't very educated but god damn he's articulate and can tell compelling stories.

[@southsideman4891]

AND THATS ALL THAT MATTERS

[@cduone]

This is one of the best interviews i've ever seen. Atlas has a heart of gold. Much respect to this brotha.

He does. God got His hand on him, it is obvious. God bless him and his family in Jesus' name.

Great interview Mr. Atlas. Thanks for being a role model showing what humility, hard work, and perseverance can do. You and Rocky Johnson winning the tag team Championship is one of my favorite memories of pro wrestling and the pride I felt in that milestone stays with me to this day. Continued blessings to you and yours Champ.

[@frednugent2310]

Tony definitely is an outstanding role model. He's one of the very few wrestlers who you could label a role model.

[@southsideman4891]

BIG SMILE ON MY FACE WHEN HE SAID THEY WERE MARRIED 40 YEARS!!! MAN...THAT IS SO BEAUTIFUL!...

[@BluesHarpJammin]

One of the best shoot interviews I've ever heard. Funny as Hell!

[@michaelsanders1675]

whats funny is i actually did a year in prison with george wells. and he told me the same andre story 😂.

[@MrAitraining]

Tony may not have had a great formal education and mispronounces some words but he is no dummy. You can hear his awareness, insight and common sense in just about every story.

[@thomassmith1275]

as a little boy in 1979 living in georgia i couldn't wait to see tony or mr wrestling no 2 on georgia championship wrestling great stuff great guy

I grew up watching tony with my grandfather... top 5 favorite wrestler for me. I enjoy watching his interviews now

[@chunky9791]

Good shoot, glad to see Mr. USA still doing his thing!

[@therealjonpaw]

Tony Atlas book is the craziest thing I've ever read i think it should've been called "Black Superman" I hope wwe or someone will do a 3 disc Tony Atlas documentary called "Black Superman"!

[@TheHannibalTV]

We're going to be doing a follow up shoot interview with him next month that will cover other stories from the book.

[@chunky9791]

17:17 Awesome!

[@eddiecoyle9152]

Such a great interview,Tony has so many hilarious stories( His foot fetish stories had me laughing so hard!")....When I get my retirement check at the end of this month, first thing I'm going to do is buy his book,I wish only the best for Tony as he was one of my favorite wrestlers in the 70s and hope he gets good residuals from the book and hopefully W.W.E makes a DVD on him.....As we say in Boston,Massachusetts,Tony is one "Hot Shit"!!

[@dantheman4838]

Being asked not to say a racial slur which offends millions of your own countrymen is not equivalent to legally not being able to use a restaurant in your own country because of your skin colour. Tony was way off on that one but it was a great interview besides that.

[@Cincinnatus1869]

@@dantheman4838 it doesn't bother Tony because he doesn't have an inferiority complex . He's a man who knows who and what he is and he has enough self worth that he doesn't let a word affect him . That's real pride .

I went through something similar as Tony when I was a child. I got tired of being beaten by other kids. The Parents of these kids would do nothing about it. So I started fighting these kids every day and fought them sometimes 3 times a day I became a monster I don’t like the person I became.

by far the most honest interviewee of them all - what a humble sweet great human.

[@TrustJesus1611]

This is such an amazing interview. The part about Brody and his son had me tears. I lived in Puerto Rico for 5 years in the 90's and had a coversation with Victor Jovica in Cayey P.R. about me becoming a wrestler before I did. He was kind of a jerk to me. I walked away and pursued wrestling on my own and was successful in the Florida independent circuit. But upon meeting these guys, you can definitely sense the corruption and won't want to work a show for these guys. I know many people that were stabbed and even shot over wresting matches in those days in P.R.
