Hall Of Famer calls for union:

Jesse Ventura says wrestlers need to take back some power from Vince...

"Absolutely! How backwards could it be? Even when I fought with Vince, it wasn't over him. I had to pay for my own health insurance for me and my family. It was costing me $5000 a year. If we had a union, maybe that could be diminished to $2000 a year. There's strength in numbers. You could have retirement. I took the gamble and sued Vince and beat him in 1990. He still sends me quarterly checks. Anything I appear on, he has to pay me for."

Harper gave up on WWE:

Luke Harper says he gave up on ever making it to WWE when his child was born, but, just days later, this happened...

"Two days after I had my child in January [2011], [I] got called by Johnny Ace. And the other best part about that is that I missed his call because I was in the hospital, so he left a message, his number cuts out. So I instantly called Claudio Castagnoli to say 'please tell me you have Johnny Ace's number' and he said, 'yeah, here it is right here.'" I was told again WWE were looking for guys over six [foot] whatever that could work. And so Claudio Castagnoli was down there, Tyler Black who is now Seth Rollins, and Jon Moxley who is Dean Ambrose, kind of all were close to Joey and said, 'hey, there's a kid out there that', I use the term, 'kid', loosely, 'there's a guy out there who can work and is tall and whatever and no one [has] ever called him.'"

Foley falling out of love for WWE:

''I am one of those people on the verge of becoming a former WWE fan. I'm tired of being told through Raw, Smackdown and PPV's that WWE superstars I have rooted for - from Ziggler to Cesaro to Kevin Owens aren't top stars - no matter how strongly crowd reaction seems to disagree. I'm tired of NXT stars getting their big "break" in WWE, just to be treated like jokes.''
