He asked me for the best man I had on my exclusive security detail. Mike Jones has proven his mettle time and again, even saving my life in an assassination attempt in Cincinnati in 1982.
I’m grieving the loss of my former protégé, Virgil. My nephew Vincent (McMahon) called me in the mid 80’s asking for a favour: He knew his new star attraction, Ted DiBiase, couldn’t hack it in the big leagues….
But upon hearing of his recent too-soon death, I thought back to the whip-smart, razor-sharp young man with a boisterous laugh and a welcoming smile. Virgil, we hardly knew ye! Oh Vincent, you fool! You fool! #RIPVIRGIL#RIPMICHAELJONES
I knew he was ready for a bigger stage, and thus, Virgil was born. Part myth, part mystery, but a technical marvel in the ring. Foolish Vincent never knew what he had in Mike and squandered his potential.
I first came to PEI as the Captain (and Chief Engineer) of the HLV SVANEN. The SVANEN left these waters long ago, but I remain ensconced in my hyperbaric container deep beneath the Strait! #funfacts
Coffee and chit-chat with Rick Wamsley, who won the cup as backup to Mike Vernon with the Flames against his former team, The Habs! Rick tells me that he’s still got the goods and I believe him!
