Everyone is tough till they meet real wrestlers. Bron von Raske said Billy Robinson was not good at actual wrestling, Craig Pittman said the same thing about Steve Regal.
@@raymondtipton7243 Ken threw that rock at a Wisconsin's McDonalds in '84. I served with that manager in '89 at Ft. Benning. He was a sweet young born again Christian. He NEVER would have lied.
Billy was a prick. We were in a busy bar. Billy was drunk and basking in his popularity. He liked to hold court in those situations. He asked for a volunteer to do a demonstration. I volunteered thinking he would take it easy on me because I was the manager. He put a type of front face lock on me, I think he called it a "Grovit" or something similar to that. I faded in and out of consciousness. I would still be stuck today if he didn't get bored with me and let me go. As I walked away he told me I was "No Wrestler". No shit Sherlock. I was not a wrestler or even an athlete, I was a volunteer.
I know in one interview with Ken Patera over that McDonald's incident he literally got mad and started cussing the interviewer calling him a "c-ok sucker" among other things. So I guess as time went by he developed a story about it because frankly, until he did, no one would stop asking him about it. I think it was all related to a hungered drunken state of mind at the time and had someone been with him, sober, that may have never happened.
@@montethepharaohli1prowrestlingYes Sailor White/Moondog King did beat Robinson up pretty badly in Canada around 1983. Sailor asked him to come outside then attacked Robinson when he wasn't expecting it and allegedly urinated on him. Sailor was known to be a very hard man and was involved in criminal activity.
@@kevthegoat8774 montreal, "international wrestling", robinson was feuding with champ & number one face, dino bravo. i remember those days. billy was managed by lord alfred hays, who spoke excellent french oddly enough. sailor was always a scary bastard. if i recall, it was leo burke that stopped sailor from killing billy.
Actually, the bigger issue wasn’t the rock. Patera and Sato fought the police when they came to the hotel. That’s how Patera ended up in prison.
Yes true
Even though they fought the police if that happen today they serve no time especially both being first time offenders.There lawyers were horrible.
@@michaelanderson9897 ahhhh
@@michaelanderson9897 their defense was jerry the king lawyer & steve the brawler lawyer
Ken said that a fired punk kid threw the rock and I believe him! Also Bobby Heenan SOLD HIM DOWN THE RIVERRRRRRRRRRRRR!
Lol

BS. Ken was too smart to do that.
Ken Patera deserves a break today.
Lol
Strange that Greg refers to his dad by his name Verne.
Yes mentioned that in the full interview
Greg always does that in every interview . always refers to his dad as ( verne ) instead of my dad!!!
@@matthewthomas9194 yes we asked him why ?
That's because he hated his guts!
@@JohnnyDouchbag-nr5yf asked him that
It would take Patera level strength to throw a 20 lb rock in an arc, through a glass window
True
That's some superhuman sasquatch level strength there
@ yes
Greg looks just like Verne now
hmm
Greg is so full of it.. unfortunately you can’t believe anything he says about anything.

Agreed
BS, as legend has it the "skinny kid" who picked up the rock and threw it at the door was none other than Masa Saito. For shoot! 🤣🤣🤣
@@patrickmartineau1008 Really?
Sailor White took care of Billy Robinson.
Really?
