‘Hacksaw’ Jim Duggan, Glens Falls Native, Joins Zach Bye
Professional wrestling legend and WWE Hall of Famer "Hacksaw" Jim Duggan sat down with me this week for an exclusive interview.
During the course of this conversation, "Hacksaw" talks about his days leading up to professional wrestling at Glens Falls High School, being recruited to play college football, and why he chose to play his collegiate football at pre-death penalty Southern Methodist University instead of other suitors, such as Penn State and Ohio State.
From there, "Hacksaw" covers everything under the sun of pro wrestling.
With no question out-of-bounds, the first Royal Rumble winner ever spoke about steroids in wrestling, the Rock 'n' Roll lifestyle of wrestlers in the 1980s, backstage beef between characters, and what it's like working for Vince McMahon. So grab your American flag, a piece of lumber, and give a "HOOOOO" and enjoy this interview with one of the all-time greats to ever step into the ring!
