Kurt Fuller's Quotes

• (on No Holds Barred) An early job, and I still knew nothing about acting. I was a terrible actor, and that's why I got the job: I would allow myself to be so bad that I lowered and got down to WWF standards. I'm sort of this insane Donald Trump-like head of the network, and I was working with Hulk Hogan. I have nothing bad to say about Hulk Hogan. In fact, compared to what I have seen in the press and all the high jinks of his life, I didn't see any of that coming, man. He was just a businessman who worked out, you know?But there was a scene where I offer him money to go to my network, and he's supposed to shove a check down my throat, and his line is, 'I won't be around when this check clears.' But nobody told him that, on movies, you fake it. In wrestling, they really do a lot of the stuff. But he shoved a check down... my... throat. And I couldn't stop him. I literally thought I was going to die. We finished the scene, and I coughed it up, and he said [Does a spot-on Hulk Hogan impression.] 'Oh, sorry, brother, I didn't know we were supposed to fake it!'At one point I said to the director, 'You know, I'm being really loud. Is this too big?' And he said, 'Kurt, you're standing next to a guy who's 6-foot-9 and wearing red spandex. You can't be too big.' I said, 'Well, I guess you're right.' But he was wrong: you could be too big, and I was! You know, there are some things you can't unsee, and there are some movies you can't get off IMDB no matter how hard you try. That's all I'm going to say.
