The guys that go into the Hall of Fame are the winners, and the losers are the ones who put them in there, and I would like to see some of the great losers through the years be in the Hall of Fame. I know that that's probably impossible, but you've got to give those losers credit, they made the winners.

Jimmy Snuka was one of the great performers in the business. In ring performance wise he was phenomenal.

Terry Funk

I would like to see another Johnny Valentine.

Stan Hansen was a tough-as-nails freshman middle linebacker when I was a senior at West Texas State. He was a damn good football player, but he developed some problems with his knees. When football didn't work out he asked me about professional wrestling.

Terry Funk

There never was one like Ric Flair, and there will never be another one like him.

Terry Funk

I have a knack - and still do - where I can look at a guy and tell you if he's going to draw you money or not. That's very difficult to do. I haven't met too many people who can do that.

Terry Funk

The truth of the matter is that Dusty Rhodes helped put more money in my pocket than anybody I've ever wrestled. In his time he was the most charismatic and talented performer in the business, and I know he doesn't look like it, but he was a pretty good athlete too.

Terry Funk

You must be very creative in our business. Creating in this business is making something new, but it is also touching on something old.

Terry Funk

I still recall the first time I laid eyes on Ric. Dusty Rhodes and Dick Murdoch were wrestling, at the time, in Minnesota, and they took a liking to this kid who'd been hanging around the matches. That kid was Ric Flair, and they brought him to my ranch in Amarillo, Texas.

Terry Funk

There are a lot of things that I remember about Dusty Rhodes. There are so many things that stick out about him. He used to work at my father-in-law's gas station pumping gas.

Terry Funk

I will give Cassius Clay $250,000 if he will just get into the ring with me anywhere in a combination boxing-wrestling match.

Terry Funk

I've had my elbows operated on, both my knees are shot, I've got stitches everywhere.

Terry Funk

My father was strict. He knew how to have a good relationship with Dory Jr. and I. He was our best friend, but we had a lot of fear.

Terry Funk

I am sick and tired of Cassius Clay going around and saying he is the greatest and what a tremendous boxer he has been.

Terry Funk

My point was to always have my spectators leave saying 'hot damn I got my money's worth.'

Terry Funk

I take Energol to improve my wind and stamina.

Terry Funk

I've got a thick skull and big, thick bones that don't break apart easily.

Terry Funk

I have had about 15 operations due to the wrestling profession, and I have a problem with an abdominal hernia.

Terry Funk

My pop was in the business and he loved it very much. He actually went ahead and passed away while wrestling.

Terry Funk

In all my years I don't think I've ever said anything nice about Dusty Rhodes to any member of the media.

Terry Funk

If I had a son, I would steer him away from wrestling. It was fun for me, but for most it's not healthy in the long run.
