“I didn’t know what Mike was going to say. I kind of had the broad points about it. But, it was just a deal where Mike went out and said what he said and I got in his face and flipped him off. He had to push the sh*t out of me because if he just barely pushed me, he’d look like a punk. So, he pushed the sh*t out of me.”
Besides, The Texas Rattlesnake revealed he wanted to get back at Tyson for pushing him rather hard. However, Jerry Briscoe and Pat Patterson had a tight grip on him, and he couldn’t get out of it.
