A biography for Arn Andersonhasn’t been written yet.
“For those of us that can do it, do something nice for a stranger. Do something nice for a family member.”
“I always get the fathers and the younger grandpas coming up to me and telling me how much they loved me even though I was a bad guy for most of my run. But the most gratifying thing to me is when I have the young guys who cheer for John Cena come up to me and tell me how cool I am.”
“When Miz was wrestling Cena I just know that there were a lot of guys that felt like they should've been in that spot. If you didn't want to be in that spot, somethings wrong with you.”
“I was big enough, strong enough, knowledgeable enough, to have a successful career without being the top top guy.”
“Let's just say, guns are not a part of my everyday thought process or life but I do agree that sometimes you have to protect what's yours.”
“Well, I didn't particularly want Rusev to turn babyface myself, but the fans, when they call for it, jump on it.”
“Adversity introduces a man to himself.”
“Familiarity doesn't always breed contempt. Sometimes familiarity is just cool.”
“I don't think Hulk Hogan has been Terry Bollea for a long, long time. I think he's been Hulk Hogan.”
“I'm Arn Anderson, and I'd be damned if I'm going to coach a loser.”
“Audiences get tired, and sometimes, the reaction you get on a match is based on how tired the crowd is.”
“WrestleMania has to have 7 or 8 matches that have value in order to sell that show because people are coming from around the world to see it. When you sell 100,000 tickets, that's not based on one match. There's a lot of interest in a lot of matches.”
“You got to be receptive to change, and everything changes, including our business.”
“I didn't want to be fireman. I didn't want to be a doctor, or a lawyer, or president. I didn't want to be any of those things the kids go through when they're young and growing up, and, 'Hey, I want to do this.'”
“I've often said the Undertaker is probably the guy who is at least as most respected as anybody who's ever been in the business. He is a locker room leader. He goes out and leads by example and he works hurt and guts it out and toughs it out.”
“How good would guys like John Cena, Randy Orton or Batista have been if they would have had 900 matches in their first three years?”
“You can take 200 people in a crowd of 10,000 and if they choose to be heard, they sound very loud. I'm talking fans scattered around the arena - if they're chanting the same thing, 200 people can make a lot of noise.”
“I think that Undertaker, more than anybody in the industry, looks at his performance every single night, and no matter how good it is, even if it's perfect and sees it, that it could have been a little bit better. He's one of those guys.”
“I've always come from a man's world.”
“WrestleMania will never be sold on one match. It just won't. One match will not draw a house these days. It's hard to draw a house at a live event with just a single main event and nothing underneath it.”
