Actually I saw a match between Tommy Billington, The Dynamite Kid, versus Tiger Mask in Madison Square Garden . And Vince McMahon was the MC of the match, he was the announcer. And I got ahold of the tape and I saw him do so many fantastic things that I'd never even dreamed of, Tiger Mask, and actually Dynamite Kid, I might as well say it, between that time and the time I got to the WWF, Dynamite Kid had put some of those moves away because he was already crippled. You can't take that many chances with your body and he was accident prone, and now he's a complete cripple... and he's bitter and mean, and Harry (Smith) filled me in on it. It's a sad thing. I loved the guy, you know I loved Davey Boy and him. You couldn't possibly not like those guys. The first time I met Davey Boy, he said, 'Hey you wanna see a picture of Bret Hart' and he took out an 8x10 and around Bret Hart's face he had cut out a hole and he had stuck in his genitals. And I thought, how can you not like a guy like that, that's hilarious. There's a lot of times in the dressing room you're bored to death, you know You couldn't be bored with The Dynamite Kid and Davey Boy Smith, they were competing for who could hold court. But anyway the thing is, I didn't invent any of those moves. I stole them from Tiger Mask, and Tiger Mask had a short career so I got the credit for it. ... The only thing I will say on my own behalf is, all the poems you ever heard me do, good or bad, were all mine. I plagiarized nothing and nobody.
