Hey.

How'd you find me?

- Cheeques bouncer.

- Right. Big Chris. Yeah.

Look, I'm- I'm- I know I came off

like a b*tch the other day, and I'm really sorry.

I didn't mean all those things

that I said, 'cause-

You're not just another customer.

But, you know, at the same time,

I have this line...

and I just-

- I can't cross it.

- No, I understand that. That's okay.

- I gotta go.

- Where are you going?

- I got a match.

- A match?

It's in Wilmington.

Come by.

When is it? What?

Balls to the wall

Balls to the wall

You'll get your balls to the wall

Balls to the wall

You'll get your balls to the wall

- Yeah. Hey, look out.

- Good to see you, bro.

- Yeah, look at you. Wow.

Yeah. You and everybody else.

Sunday night, I get a call and they say,

"He's back in. It's on again. "

I'm like, "What?"

Listen, uh, when you get settled in,

you want to go over some of the things?

- What things?

- Some of the spots.

Okay. How's this right here?

I'm the heel and you're the face. Done.

Hey, Bob. I'm glad to see things haven't changed.

Yeah. I love you too.

Now, back to you. Listen.

What kind of car do you want, man?

You left your shoes.

Cassidy. Cassidy!

Hey, Pam!

Pam.

Three more miles.

Three more miles.

Weighing in at 252 pounds-

- You ready to do this thing?

- I think so.

- The Beast of the Middle East-

- See you out there.

The Ayatollah!

- Hey, hey, hey. How much? How much? How much?

- Twenty dollars.

Which way's backstage?

This is backstage?

That's what he said, huh?

Randy.

- Hey.

- Oh. What are you doing here?

What the f*** are you doing?

I'm doing my thing.

I'm going to work.

- Yeah, but- but your heart.

- My heart?

My heart's still tickin'.

- Yeah, but the doctor said-

- Listen. I know what I'm doing.

And, you know, the only place I get hurt

is out there.

The world don't give a sh*t about me.

I'm here.

I'm really here.

- What do you call that?

- U.S.A.! U.S.A.! U.S.A.!

And his opponent, from Elizabeth,

New Jersey weighing in at-

- Hey.

- 225 pounds-

- You hear them? This is where I belong.

- a true wrestling immortal-

- Randy "The Ram"-

- I gotta go.

Robinson!

No, no, no. Randy! Randy!

She's got a smile that it seems to me

Reminds me of childhood memories

Where everything was as fresh

as the bright blue sky

Now and then when I see her face

She takes me away to that special place

And if I stare too long

I'd probably break down and cry

Whoa, whoa, whoa

Sweet child o'mine

Whoa, oh, oh, oh

Sweet love of mine

I just want to say...

to you all tonight...

I'm very grateful to be here.

A lot of people told me

that I'd never wrestle again.

And that's all I do.

You know, if you live hard,

and you play hard...

- and you burn the candle at both ends-

- Love you, Ram!

you pay the price for it.

You know, in this life

you can lose everything that you love...

and everything that loves you.

Now I don't hear as good as I used to...

and I forget stuff...

and I ain't as pretty as I used to be.

But goddamn it,

I'm still standing here, and I'm the Ram.

You know, as time goes by-

as time goes by, they say,

"He's washed up.

"He's finished. He's a loser.

He's all through. "

- But you know what?

- Twenty more years!

The only ones who are gonna tell me

when I'm through doing my thing...

is you people here.

You people here-

You people here are the ones...

who are worth bringing it for,

because you're my family.

I love all of you.

Thank you so much!

Great talk, Randy.

Thank you.

Yeah!

Pick it up, baby.

Take it easy! Ah!

- What are you doing? This is my move!

- Giving up?

Steal my move, Randy?

This is how you do it!

This is how you do it!

One, two, th-

Hey! Who you pushing?

- Do not tell me what to do!

- You can't push me!

Don't tell me!

U.S.A.! U.S.A.! U.S.A.!

I forgot how much fun this was, Ram!

Bring it, Bob!

A**hole! Come on!

Infidel!

Holy sh*t! Holy sh*t! Holy sh*t!

Hey, you okay, ref?

Now I'm gonna take you out, baby!

U.S.A.! U.S.A.! U.S.A.!

Let's take it home.

Ram? Are you all right?

You okay, Ram?

Ram?

I'll take it from here.

Pin me!

Come on, Ram. Pin me!

We gave 'em enough.

Ram- Ram, you okay?

You all right?

It's okay, Ram.

Take it home.

Ram Jam! Ram Jam! Ram Jam!

One, two, three, four.

Have you ever seen a one-trick pony

In the field so happy and free

If you've ever seen a one-trick pony

then you've seen me

Have you ever seen a one-legged dog

Makin' his way down the street

If you've ever seen a one-legged dog

then you've seen me

Then you've seen me

I come and stand at every door

Then you've seen me

I always leave with less

than I had before

Then you've seen me

Bet I can make you smile

when the blood it hits the floor

Tell me friend,

can you ask for anything more

Tell me, can you ask for anything more

Have you ever seen a scarecrow

Filled with nothin' but dust and weeds

If you've ever seen that scarecrow

then you've seen me

Have you ever seen a one-armed man

Punchin' at nothin' but the breeze

If you've ever seen a one-armed man

then you've seen me

Then you've seen me

I come and stand at every door

Then you've seen me

I always leave with less

than I had before

Then you've seen me

Bet I can make you smile

when the blood it hits the floor

Tell me friend,

can you ask for anything more

Tell me, can you ask for anything more

These things that have comforted me

I drive away

This place that is my home

I cannot stay

My only faith's in the broken bones

and bruises I display

Have you ever seen a one-legged man

Tryin' to dance his way free

If you've ever seen a one-legged man

then you've seen me
