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. - Lanny Poffo Quotes

There was a big controversy... people were saying... Chris Jericho treated me really well in the dressing room, he said, 'You were the first guy to ever do that.' No, I was the first guy to steal it from Tiger Mask. I don't want credit for doing things that I didn't do. - Lanny Poffo Quotes

It was unintentional, Andre headbutted me right in the head, ... He always liked me and he was really sorry about it, but that's what happened. He was a very strong guy. And his head is like three heads... my head is just like one and a half. Maybe he was trying too hard. But I never begrudged him for it, the poor guy was in so much pain. I wrestled him in 1975 when he was excellent. And then I saw him again in 1985 and he was a physical wreck. And it's very well documented that the last few years of his life were miserable. And you know what the greatest thing in his life was? - Lanny Poffo Quotes

No, I don't know what you're talking about, ... It doesn't ring a bell. I've never known Molly Holly to lie about anything. She might be mistaken, or you might have your facts wrong. Any time I've ever needed anything from WWE, they've always busted their asses to comply with me. I'm not saying that you didn't hear it, and I'm not saying that Molly lied, she's never lied in her life. But it's possible that somebody's mistaken. Unless it had something to do with my infomercial. In that case, you would... you couldn't blame WWE for wanting to wet their beak a little. Yeah... the Tony Little thing, maybe that was it. It just didn't... the thing is, I've known Molly Holly for all these years, and she is the finest person that ever walked down the pike. So if she said something, you can take it to the bank. - Lanny Poffo Quotes
