On a recent edition of his “The Hacksaw Hour” podcast, WWE Hall of Famer “Hacksaw” Jim Duggan shared his opinion on title reigns and why winning a championship is not mandatory to be a successful wrestler.
You can check out some highlights from the podcast below:
On why you don’t have to be champion in wrestling: “That’s not the idea of wrestling, holy sh*t, it’s a work. You don’t have to be champion, you don’t have to win all the time. Bruiser Brody told me he’d put anybody over at any time, 1, 2, 3 dead in the middle, just let him get his stuff on after. Boom, get up, get your 2×4, chase the guy out of the ring, chase the referee out of the ring.”
On how becoming champion isn’t as important in wrestling as in real sports: “It’s a job. People look at it, it’s not the way to look at our profession.”
