AHMED JOHNSON
Road Dogg: Everybody was scared to death of Ahmed. I actually worked with him right before he started up there in Memphis a lot. I worked with Rocky also. I just I quit up there. I came back I started with Lawler down in Memphis and I worked with Rocky a bunch (of matches) as he came through there.
Ahmed came through there. I worked a bunch of matches with him. But I literally kept it as simple as I could because he was huge and strong. So I would just sell the big man stuff and just tell him to hit me with one tackle and (I’d) just flip out the ring and walk away because I was the heel at the time and he’s the huge guy.
His attitude was bully-ish. He never bullied me. Me and him actually got along real well. I get along well with everybody until they crossed my path and then I’ll either decide, I can take them or I can’t take them. Me and Ahmed always got along good but he always bullied, it seemed like everybody else, even the agents and the office and stuff. And that ain’t cool.
We’re all here doing the same thing. Everybody has to play their part, play their position and you got to know your position which goes back to knowing your role. I mean it is true, you got to know your role. If you’re on a soap opera and you’re not the main guy, you’re not the main guy. I’m sorry. This guy up here, Todd Martin or whoever the hell it is, it’s the main guy.
So if he has to slap you in one scene or whatever you don’t b*tch about it. That’s your role. You do your part. And Ahmed had a little trouble doing his part. He thought he was big and bad and which he was, but you got to understand it ain’t about who’s the baddest because it’s fake. If it’s about who’s the baddest, Ken Shamrock would be standing in the ring and we’d all be limping and pi$$ing in our pants.
