Why can't we talk about just good things?

Why can't we talk about Japan and eight, you know, the other federations, the Georgia championship more, the things that brought them up to be who they were, even though they looked like village people, you know, at the beginning, but it created them and who they were.

And then them as people like the good things, no, they want to hear all this bad crap, you know, just like on Hawk.

But I feel like they're asking me about, oh, you want a payday?

You want this?

You want that?

No, all these people that were in there, they did because half of them wouldn't even get up and come over there and speak to Joe.

And I'm the one who watched him hurt over this.

And some of them were his very good friends for a long time.

then at the at the last 10 years like he he asked like what did i do what you know i'm not relevant now you're questioning yourself you know tommy like how that is like as you get older and and things that he's doing appearances like it it messes with your mind and things and

i hated to see him hurt like that and then when you see that on there and you're and i'll be quite honest bruce pritchard i i've battled with him online lately and he he rips my husband on his podcast a lot of times or little clips and i'm thinking why are you even on here talking about him we know you don't really care for it

so i just i would have rather had people that had positive things to say and really meant them i don't like i'll speak the truth i just want to speak the truth

And I will tell you, even though his daughter spoke...

Now, it wasn't always reciprocated by all, but that was his hope.

That was what he truly loved.

I want them to know, like, words can't even express, like, what an amazing man he was, first of all.

Like, you had Joe and you had Animal.

And people often would just get to see the animal side, but the lucky ones got to see the soft side.

And, of course, you hear all about family and everything, but you'd never meet a more... Some people would say, like, oh, he's just a big, you know, burly wrestler or whatever.

Super smart man.
