Treat her like you would another guy so she can get the feel of how it is in that ring. Don\u2019t treat her like a girl. I mean don\u2019t disrespect her, touching things you ain\u2019t supposed to touch\u2019 but, they helped her out in a way because they treated her like she was a normal person, you understand?<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Even though she was a smaller young lady, she was tough and I told her, \u2018To make it in this profession, you gotta be tough\u2019 and I believe she took it to heart and she worked hard and like I did with all my students, once I train you, I take you on the road, I show you the ropes of professional wrestling, everything from wrestling to doing business with promoters because promoters will try to screw you out of your money and if you\u2019re not aware of it, then you\u2019ll fall for the okie doke. Well with her, I took her on the road, I showed her the ropes, I did everything I [could] to help her and the end result is she got a gig and you know, she\u2019s been with Impact for a minute and sometimes when it\u2019s time to move on, some people want to move on and that\u2019s what she did. She had enough of that and now she\u2019s hoping to get to the next level which is AEW or WWF or whatever else is floating out there, but she\u2019s still young and she still has a lot of miles left in the game of professional wrestling so, the sky\u2019s the limit for her man.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p><b>Mr. Hughes on his run[s] in WWF, feels that Vince McMahon took care of him and liked what he did:<\/b> &#8220;Yeah, I got a lot of fond memories from WWF man. You know, Vince [McMahon] took care of me. He liked what I did, he liked the character. Vince likes athletes and as a big guy, what I was doing, he loved it, he saw something in me and gave me an opportunity and so when he gave me the opportunity to fight The Undertaker, he lined up all the stars of WWF, from Bret Hart to Macho Man [Randy Savage] to [\u2018Hacksaw\u2019 Jim] Duggan, all of \u2018em and they all had to get my hand raised because I was working my way towards The Undertaker and so they had to show that to get to The Undertaker, you gotta show that you\u2019re a bad S.O.B. and so, that\u2019s what Vince was trying to do and he did a damn good job at it because when he gave me the opportunity to go out there and fight The Undertaker, I didn\u2019t believe it.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p><b>On pitching a &#8220;Millennium Man&#8221; character to the WWF and being paired with Chris Jericho instead:<\/b> &#8220;Oh yeah, no doubt about it [that he enjoyed the enforcer roles]. Every time I went to WWF \u2014 I was there three different times and each time they brought me in, they had me with somebody over. Either it was Triple H, Y2J or taking The Undertaker\u2019s urn, I was always with somebody that was over. Each time Vince [McMahon] brought me in, I was always with somebody who was a star there, and that was the good thing about it because at first, when Millennium Man hit, I had sent WWF a package of this new character called Millennium Man, and instead of them using the Millennium Man, they put me with [Chris] Jericho and called him Y2J, which I didn\u2019t mind because I had a gig. I had a contract, I was gonna make a whole bunch of money and so I didn\u2019t care, you understand? The whole objective was money, period.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p><b>Mr. Hughes on how much longer he plans to wrestle:<\/b> &#8220;Well my body\u2019s talking to me now so, you know, to say I get in there, I don\u2019t do much, but I entertain the people the way they should entertained, but body-wise, I\u2019m almost sixty so I can feel my body, you know what I mean?&#8221;<\/p>\n<div
