Ricky Morton on WWE Superstar Roman Reigns:

 

“When they boo Roman Reigns on tv they want them to what they have got written out to come out at this point in time I don’t want the people to cheer Roman Reigns because it is not time yet. There will come that time. Right now they don’t want them to. I’m just like you… I have to wait and see where they go with this but it’s going somewhere big.”

 

On wrestling commentators and Jim Ross as his favorite commentator:

 

“All of you were great or you wouldn’t be on the tv shows but it sticks out to me because Jim Ross and I kind of grew up together. Wow. Really Good. I love Jim Ross.” He said, “My favorite is Jim Ross. He was great and he still is.”

 

Shares memories of Jerry “The King” Lawler in Mid-South and traveling:

 

“Jerry Lawler was similar to Elvis there and I’m not kidding.” Ricky Morton recalled being in a car with Jerry Lawler. “We get pulled over. We were going 115 mph and a police officer pulls us over. Walks up… says what’s up Jerry you were going 115 mph. Jerry said, “Was I”? The officer said, “You all be careful. Slow it down.”
