WWE legend Billy Graham took to Facebook to claim that Vince McMahon and Pat Patterson were disrespectful during the funeral service of Rocky Johnson, his account came from his Mother-In-Law who is friends with Johnson's wife. He posted:
Funeral For Rocky Johnson Today
The funeral service for Rocky Johnson was held today in north Tampa, Florida. My mother in law is friends with Rocky's wife as they would sit together at the bi -monthly wrestling reunion held in Tampa. My wife's mom told Valerie that there were 2 low points to the service which was by invitation only with about 100 people attending. One was by Vince, who got up to speak and said the following, " Rocky did 1 good thing in his life, he married Ata and had some kids. " Then he did his " working strut " off the platform and sat down and that was it. Classless ass hole. Then Pat Patterson was asked to speak and said some very nice things about working with Rocky in San Fransisco, some of those matches were with me as Patterson's tag partner against The High Chief, Peter Maivia and Rocky. Then, out of no where Patterson goes into this rant and called Rocky Johnson, laying dead in the casket right below him, a mother F- er and started this vulgar rant about how worthless Rocky was and a bunch of guys had to drag Patterson off the church platform and sit him down. So disgustingly disrespectful it's beyond words. Patterson who just turned 81 must be losing his mind literally. Only in pro wrestling folks, very sad to hear about this and I actually feel a bit ill over this bizarre behavior. Superstar B. G.
