Vickie Guerrero interview:

On HOF induction...

"One of them would have to be Tamina. She was my road partner. We still talk at least twice a month to catch up. I truly have a special friendship with her. She was there for a lot things I was going through in my personal life, and I was there for hers. The other person would be Johnny Ace, because he was the one who helped me with my contracts and helped me to know that this was going to work. He had faith in me and was a big part of my career. Of course, I would be honored if Vince was there to say a few words because he had a lot to do with this, too."

On why she quit WWE...

"The first eight years there were really busy. I worked with Edge and Dolph Ziggler and then with the McMahons in the general manager roles, but the last couple years I found myself in the locker room at TV doing homework rather than being used on the show. I started wondering if it was the end of my run. I never wanted to be released and always wanted to leave on my own terms. I didn't want to be one of those talents who just stays there and doesn't really have anything to do; I wanted to be productive. So I went to Vince in 2013 and told him I was contemplating leaving, and he said they could still use me, and they did. But he said, 'If you want to leave, just give me the time frame that you want to put your notice in,' and I said, 'Thank you so much.'"

Harper critical of Wyatt Family:

Luke Harper has confessed he did not enjoy his time as a Wyatt...

"It's incredibly frustrating. There were times in my career when I felt like I was serving several different masters, and for me that wasn't beneficial. It was to a point, but then I didn't really realize what was out there until these last couple weeks. The 2014 run was a bit of a tease. I was still… I guess not fully developed as a WWE superstar at that point, and I feel like I'm completely developed now. The last six or seven weeks away from the Family have been very eye-opening. It was frustrating. Even to this day I'll go to an airport and someone will say 'hey Bray Wyatt!' or 'hey Erick Rowan!' They don't know who I am. And that's very frustrating, because I'm part of a group."

"I had so much backlash because before in NXT, I used to come out with the Bulgarian national anthem. And people were like, 'oh, why are you embarrassing the anthem?' How am I embarrassing the anthem? I'm from the freaking country. I have a freaking tattoo of Bulgaria on my shoulder. I'm proud of it. It's just so annoying with people hating all the time. Why can't you be happy for your countrymen?"

Actor says Hogan sent him to the hospital:

"I remember a violent move where he threw me into the corner , charged across the ring like an ENRAGED bull and leaped so amazingly high Above me,that his shinbone actually came down giant tree on my collarbone , and I tumbled to the floor," Stallone recalled. "I was afraid to look at my shoulder for about 10 minutes ... I said 'don't roll me over , don't move me,' because I was sure there was bone protruding through my upper chest ! Of course there wasn't but I have never felt such a mind numbing pain from a massive hit before or since that day!"

It's a damn shame that I reached out and didn't hear anything, it made me sick to my stomach."
