00:00Rick, first of all, I am so, so sorry.
00:03This must hit you profoundly.
00:07More than you'll ever know.
00:13People always wanted to paint us as enemies,
00:18but we were actually very, very close friends.
00:23And we kept up with each other on a regular basis.
00:30I just talked to Jimmy Hart yesterday, and he was fine.
00:35To have this happen is just horrible.
00:38How did you get the news?
00:40I'm so sorry, Rick. I am so sorry.
00:43Oh, I've gotten it from everybody.
00:45My boat won't stop.
00:47We had magic.
00:48I mean, it wasn't like me and Steamboat,
00:51but we just had a chemistry that was,
00:55I felt like equal to me and Steamboat,
01:00but in a different way.
01:02And he was so over.
01:04I mean, when I went there in the 90s,
01:07I had never seen anything like it in my life.
01:10The music started, and he came down the hallway.
01:13I mean, I would get him down for two minutes,
01:17and we'd have, it's just an unbelievable relationship.
01:21I mean, and I'll give you an idea of how much fun we had working together.
01:26If we were doing a dark match after TV,
01:30we would go, and he'd say,
01:33room service, and throw me in and give me the boot,
01:36drop the big leg on me.
01:38We got back in a hotel for room service.
01:41I mean, that's how much fun we had working together.
