I'm watching an interview and there's a pretty good story with a fucking great line at the end. Here it goes:

Ole Anderson had gotten into a car to go to a show where he was wrestling and besides the friend he usually travelled with there was another guy in the car, driving it. Larry Simon, the guy driving, started talking about how good a wrestler Karl Gotch was. Gotch was known to be a legit tough wrestler but for some reason Gotch was supposedly currently working for the sanitation department in Hawaii, maybe recovering from a wrestling injury. Anyway, Larry asks Ole if he's ever met Gotch and Ole says no. Then Larry says "Well, he's pretty damn good."

Ole says to him well how tough can Karl Gotch be for Christ sakes; he's off in Hawaii hauling garbage"! So Larry, the driver, asks "You think you could beat Karl Gotch"? Anderson says "I don't know." Larry asks "Would you say that to Karl Gotch"? Ole says "Fuckin' A! What the hell. What are you talking about?

A month or so later a car comes up and Larry is sitting in the front seat and Ole's friend is sitting in the passenger seat. So Ole opens the door to get in the back seat and sees there's another guy there that he's never seen before. Ole gets in and sits next to him and they set off for the next wrestllng card. When Ole looks at the guy next to him he looks like a damn piece of steel. Ole knows right away it's Karl Gotch! But he's supposed to be in Hawaii! What's he doing here? Larry turns and says "Ole, I'd like you to meet Karl Gotch."

So Ole turns to Karl Gotch and says "If you want a piece of my ass, you getter bet in line and you better take a number. And on top of that you better pack a lunch"!

Karl Gotch looks like he's made of stone. Instead of turning his neck, he slowly turns his whole body until he's looking right at Ole and says: "When I wrestle you I will pack a lunch. Because I want to take all day"!
