- In the video above, WWE Hall of Famer Jake "The Snake" Roberts talks about working with Andre the Giant. Jake talks about how Andre was limited but says he had a great time with Andre. Jake calls Andre a great man. Jake also talks about how their first match was a mess and Jake lost it backstage but speaking up helped things. Jake says you had to really fight Andre in the ring and if you were light on him, like Randy Savage was, he would throw you around the ring.

- WWE recently spoke with actress Candace Cameron Bure about her recent wrestling segment on Netflix's "Fuller House" show. She commented on getting into the wrestling ring and said she did her own stunts:

"Well, no one expected me to actually get in the ring. They had told me about this wrestling episode with the [Fuller] kids and it would be really fun and I said, 'Oh, that's so great!' My real kids love watching it; they think it's awesome. The first day in, they brought the stunt doubles and they said we're just going to watch the stunt doubles. They're going to work out the wrestling routine, and then they'll do everything and we'll just come in and do close-up face shots of me and edit it all together. Well, I watched the stuntwoman do the routine and I just said, 'She's not doing it! I'm doing it. I can do that!'"
