Is Wrestling Fixed? I Didn't Know It Was Broken!: From Photo Shoots and Sensational Stories to the WWE Network ― My Incredible Pro Wrestling Journey! and Beyond ... Quotes

“Mr. Stallone had picked up a recent issue and was looking for a wrestler with a specific look - well built and blond - for a role in an upcoming movie. It would be the third in the 'Rocky' series, aptly titled 'Rocky III'... Two wrestlers who fit that profile immediately came to ...-'Superstar' Billy Graham and Hulk Hogan... It would be the biggest break of his (the Hulk's) life.”

“If you were endorsed by Apter, you were something special, and you usually wound up somewhere in the magazines. He was the right guy to know.”

“I didn't want Vince McMahon to be upset if the shots looked too good and take it out on Hogan! Hulk thanked me for "thinking in the right direction"... I took about 35 photos, and then Linda took one of Hulk and me together that I have never used in any magazine.”
