"I always stood up for the boys and the business. And CM Punk’s the same way that he is. I mean gosh, you gotta go on there and deal with all these personalities and you see, in my days Bill it was about putting behinds in seats and feeding our families... But nowadays… and I say this, everybody you look at ‘it’s about me, it’s not about you, it’s about me’... But you gotta understand when you’re back there and you’re trying to get these ratings and you’re trying to put stuff together, nobody in the world is all going to agree with you. But sometimes you’re gonna have to stop and listen before we kill our business totally,” Ricky Morton said. [03:03 - 03:48]

Ricky Morton revealed he had multiple issues with WWE Hall of Famers

While speaking in the same interview, the WWE Hall of Famer claimed that he was no different than CM Punk. He revealed that he has had some arguments with veterans such as Dusty Rhodes.

“Well Bill... It’s no matter what you do in life, you can’t make everybody like you. And you gotta understand when I broke into business, well when Robert and I had a run, we never had guaranteed money, we never had things. See, I was controversial on a lot of things too. Believe me or not, I had a lot of fights with Dusty, and a lot of fights with Jimmy Crockett and you know … So I can’t say nothing really." [02:30 - 03:02]
