-What happened during a Ricky Steamboat vs. Ric Flair match: Tommy says that Steamboat slammed Flair down and put Flair in a front face lock. Tommy went down and proceeded to get the worst smell he had ever smelt! Tommy asked the guys which one farted, but no one farted. Instead, Ric Flair told Tommy that he crapped his tights! Steamboat just rolled his eyes. Instead of stopping the match, they continued the match for at least six or seven minutes because the match was suppose to end yet. They did whatever it took to protect the business.

-Tommy's career ending injury: The match saw Mike Rotunda vs. Tommy Rich. The incident can be seen on You Tube. November 28th, 1989 was the date of the event. Rich was suppose to shove Tommy in the back and send Tommy into the ropes. Mike was then going to charge Rich and be sent over the top to the top causing a DQ. Rich ended up accidentally stepping on Tommy’s foot and Tommy goes flying forward with his arms going through the ropes. Tommy ended up hitting the ropes and snapping his neck. Tommy couldn’t feel anything from the neck down. Tommy remembers thinking that he was in deep trouble and no one knew it. Tommy ended up going to the hospital and had big time surgery. He had the same surgery that Arn Anderson ended up having and he had to retire as well.

-Who went out of their way to make the in ring action look real:Tommy says that Cactus Jack would do anything to make everything look real. Tommy also mentions Terry Funk as being a guy that would do anything to get the fans to think what they were doing was real. [Thank you very much to Bob Colling from wrestlingrecaps.wordpress.com.]
