    This story alone makes it worth filming a whole biopic on Mad Dog lol. Such a unique wrestler and great man who had a tremendous influence on pro wrestling. The definition of old school. I think Mad Dog was one of the inspirations for Wolverine because they share similarities; a tough Canadian with a small stature, gravely voice and wild as hell. Greg's impersonation of him is uncanny. It's like he's possessed by Vachon in person. Literally a copy/paste. The way he tells the story is captivating and Jim's laughter is contagious. Jim's input is great too. He lets Greg tell his story, something a lot of interviewers forget to do with their guests nowadays.

Also he (Bockwinkle) had likely done things like checks etc to make sure the plane was OK and then they were waiting for Mad Dog while the plane is ready so Nick is waiting in the cockpit....
