This highest rated segment I ever did in WWF was "This is Your Life:" Rock, when Mick did it. I'll never forget the next day: I was the anti-Christ, it was the worst show they ever saw, Russo's killing wrestling, etc. The segment did an 8.4: eight-and-a-half million people watched that show! Do you know what that did for the wrestling business in general? These people should have been kissing my feet because now 8 million people were looking at wrestling. To me, that's all that mattered. But you have these little cliques of internet people and all they care about is themselves and "what I like" and "what I don't like." Well you know what? It's not about you, it's not about me, it's about the masses. And when 8 million people are watching your show, it doesn't get any better than that. Show less «
