You didn’t have to be all the way in the top but… Back in the day in the 90s if you worked with Hogan or Warrior or Jake ‘The Snake’ [Roberts] or any of these top stars, you gotta good payday. He took care of me and ‘Rugged’ Ronnie Garvin, Valentine Beefcake against the Bulldogs… We would be main event by ourselves, usually, it was just a single on the top. But they sent Hogan somewhere. We did some Beefcake and Valentine with a Bulldog. He sold out everywhere,” Greg Valentine said.
