Hall Of Famer blasts fellow inductees:

Bob Backlund says Jimmy Snuka is an embarrassment to the Hall...

"In the ring he was a genius. But out of the ring he was an embarrassment to society. I didn't know him outside of the ring at all, I just knew him in the ring. I didn't hang around and wasn't out there with him but I know he was very good in the ring and as good as it gets. If he would have been a decent person then he would have been the WWF Champion but he didn't have the qualifications and didn't meet the standards or else he would have been. Vince McMahon Sr. would have made him the WWF Champion if he would have been an honorable person. I didn't hang around the guys and I didn't ride in the cars with him. I had an instance riding in a car with him in Georgia and I never rode with him again. I don't know what was going on at all and I didn't want to know. My business was wrestling and I wanted to be ready to go in the ring and do my best and I didn't have time to worry about what was going on behind the scenes and I didn't want to know."

And said WWE should have fired Hogan long before they finally did...

"I thought that he didn't meet the standards and I know Bruno would have thought if I had been doing all that goofy stuff he was doing he wouldn't have liked me being champion and I'm sure that Bruno feels the same way. He (Hulk) didn't meet the standards outside the ring to be able to represent the WWF. Did the WWE fire him recently? Because, I would have fired him thirty years ago. He was saying one thing and doing another."

Bubba denies they were fired:

Bubba Dudley says they were not fired by WWE in 2005, their deal had ran out, and they parted ways mutually...

"[WWE] kind of lumped us into that 'Black Friday' where they said, 'oh, the Dudleys were released also' and that was totally untrue. We were negotiating with them and we got really close to coming to a new deal, but at the end, we just couldn't agree on a couple of things, so we just agreed to go our separate ways, so we didn't sign a new deal. We were never released." Bubba Ray added, "there was definitely a spirited conversation between me and Johnny Ace."

Retirement nixed:

Steveweiser:

Shelton reveals why he left WWE:

"I was at that point where I felt like my tires were just spinning, no matter what I did. I just couldn't get ahead. It's like the same spot, even while I did do something to really elevate myself."
