Ā āWell, I thought it was a horrible thing for McMahon to ask me to do. It was cheap, it was disrespectful, it didnāt prove a damn thing other than the fact that Vince McMahonās an asshole, so there you go. Lawler, heās in the the same boat. Both a**holes.ā

Ā āYou know, Iāve got some issues that I have to watch, but itās getting better all the time because I did quit smoking. Thatās really hard to do. I will be around for a long time, I have grandkids I want to hang out with now. I want to make somebody else miserable, so have fun. Yeah, Iām doing much better.ā
