Big shout out to Greg Gagne
"Mick Jagger said I'm gonna leave the Rolling Stones, but then me n my dad, good friends with Keith Richards, said hey don't do that. We'll put this concert together and it'll be great. Hulk Hogan, Dana White, and Rob Zombie will show up, and that's how Woodstock happened."
Man ,Greg selling out high school gymnasiums …future superstar!
Greg trained Verne. He told Verne, "Verne you need to open your own promotion in Minneapolis. I know with you at the helm it'll be a success. You should call it the American Wrestling Association. Verne did and the rest is history."
The 3 greatest wrestlers ever, in order, are 1. Greg Gagne, 2. Hulk Hogan, 3. Ric Flair.
People bash Greg (most deserved)...but a lot of greats say he had great psychology and timing, can take a bump. Had he stayed a trainer and an agent, out of the ring and the booking room he would have a better reputation.
Ladies & Gentlemen, Greg “I came up with every major angle in wrestling, AWA would still be around only if this one thing didn’t happen, I thought of bringing Hogan in to WCW but everyone else that says otherwise is lying, Bischoff stole my contract and all my ideas, everyone compliments me as the best worker they ever worked with and best babyface ever, in 93 I said Nash, Austin, and Triple H were the next big stars in the business (even though Triple H hadn’t even been to WCW yet)” Gagne.
Even Hogan blushes listening to Greg stretch the truth.
Nobody would watch Greg and he only got a spot because of his Dad. He said Bockwinkle was OK?
Greg "So I told Jack Nicklaus to work more on his golf swing" The rest is history.
Thanks for posting the entire video. I've been wanting to see the whole thing for a long time. I grew up in the 70s watching AWA wrestling. Gagne's promotion was by far the best era of wrestling ever. I can't watch today's wrestling, I gave up on it years ago, its just garbage. 70's and 80s Territory wrestling was the best!
Love the idea of Greg Gange just sitting at home waiting for that call from RF Video.
'They worked 366 days out of the year' Greg must've been in the same math class as Hogan.
That's pretty cool he mentioned the small nothing town of Moline,IL. I currently live here, and have lived here off n on my whole life.. That Mean Gene Interview would be a Good Interview to post.. And that Video Company he was trying too think of could it have been Coliseum Video Possibly.? Thanks for this interview...
Well idk why they didn’t give him WCW in 2001… he would have singlehandedly saved it.
greg was the start of the body guys 🤣
Is this the shoot where Gagne admits to inventing air? 😆
Thank you for posting this
Bobby Heenan when asked if Verne gave his son too much of a push. "No he should have pushed him more. Should have pushed him right off a cliff."
Billy Robinson is one of the toughest dudes ever. He was teaching catch wrestling before these jiu-jitsu guys came on the scene.
