1. Road Warrior Animal Reveals What He Still Wants To Do In The Wrestling Business
During a recent appearance on Jim Ross’ “Ross Report” podcast, Road Warrior Animal was asked if there’s anything that he still wants to do in the wrestling business. Below is what Animal said:
“I think I am good at coaching. I am good at explaining things that are ideal to an athlete and the way an athlete understands. My whole thing was, you can’t teach guys how to go to the Super Bowl unless you have been to the Super Bowl. I mean that humbly, but you can’t train guys to work the business if you haven’t been in the business and successful at it yourself. I am very blessed man, I had the Dusty Rhodes, Ric Flair, Tully Blanchard, all these guys in our business; Junkyard Dog, Ernie Ladd. I got to work with a lot of great guys, so I learned so much from them.
I would love to be behind the scenes, running the company, helping with the matches, especially in the tag team division, running smoothly. Having guys learn how to be big guys. There are times and places to do things; one guy does a move, so another guy has to do a move. That is not how you tell a story. At the end of the day, it’s about entertaining the fans you know, so they shouldn’t worry about having to get all their moves in at once, but more about telling a story you know? So, that is what I love to do. I love being behind the scenes, love being inside the office, being the guy that helps.
I would also love going around the world searching for talent as well, going to Russia or some places to go to the companies, I think that would be a good way to go. I love the business, it has been good to me. I am an athlete at heart and will die an athlete, you know, so I love to give back any way I can.”
