Hillbilly Jim was on TMZ Sports today to comment on his upcoming induction in the WWE Hall of Fame Class of 2018. The interview is interesting to say the least.
- Jim was called multiple times about this year’s Wrestlemania week, but he was avoiding the call.
- He was planning on not attending this year’s ‘Mania week after some difficult travel last year to Orlando.
- He did not expect he was going to get the honor, and was told that WWE Chairman Vince McMahon chose him.
- Jim was very grateful, and described it as “above and beyond (his) dream”.
- He also acknowledged the other legendary previous inductees that he performed with in the past.
