On who is the biggest egg sucking dog in the business:
TF: Well that had to be… why would I call anybody else an egg sucking dog but Dusty? He was the fattest, ugliest one of all.
On where the phrase “egg sucking dog” came from:
TF: Who the hell knows? I have no idea. An egg sucking dog! Nobody has any idea. How did I come up with it? I came up with all kinds of stuff. That was part of being great and having creativity. I’m not just bragging about myself. I’m just saying.
BA: You didn’t have a team of writers?!
TF: (Laughs) If I’d have had a team you wouldn’t have been on it!
On whether he’d like to have one more run in WWE:
TF: No.
BA: Not at all?
TF: Would I like one final run? I would like to have one final run as whenever I was 28 or 30 years old. Sure, I’d like to have a run up there. Now? Of course not. I’m too old.
BA: No chance of Chainsaw Charlie coming back?
TF: Chainsaw is dead. Chainsaw died.
BA: We will get the obituary out shortly.
A brand new episode of Is Wrestling Fixed? will be released next Friday morning!
