Lanny Poffo on how his family feels that Randy Savage finally got inducted

via Evan Prout:

Lanny Poffo stopped by Under the Mat Radio to discuss his feelings on a few topics such as finally inducting his late brother Randy Savage into the Hall of Fame and so much more! You can listen to the full interview below; here are some of the highlights:

Lanny Poffo on how he got the call for Randy to go into the HOF:

“I kind of knew about for over a year that Randy was going to go in… then when they (WWE) actually officially released that they were going to induct him (Savage) I wasn’t sure if I was going to be the one to induct him. Everybody was saying that Hogan was going to be the one to induct him but I just thought I’d be common sense for it to be me.”

Lanny Poffo on how his family feels that Randy Savage finally got inducted:

“Well I can tell you how I felt, I felt relived because we are not going to punish the fans anymore now the fans are going to have to find something else to be punished about. I feel relived like a big burden has been lifted and I’m glad that the speech was well received.”

Lanny Poffo on Damien Sandow (Mizdow):

“Talking to the younger talent, they were very receptive to me. I really enjoyed everybody particularly Damien Sandow what a nice person he is. People think he stole my gimmick he did not. I stole my gimmick from many of people, and besides Bobby Heenan never got mad because he was The Brain and then I came and I was the Genius he never raised an issue..!”

Lanny Poffo on who he loved to work with the most during his time with WWE (WWF then):

“I’d have to say as Leaping Lanny I loved to work against Terry Funk and Bob Orton Jr. I would look better losing to those two guys then if I would beat Barry Harowitz. Now I’d say when I was a villain my best match ever was against Hulk Hogan.

Lanny Poffo also discusses his feeling on CM Punk, John Cena, Daniel Bryan, his favorite Hall of Fame speech and much more in this exclusive 60-minute interview on Under the Mat Radio.
