Part 4/7:
Valentine shared a light-hearted comment about his encounter with JYD, noting that was likely the only time they wrestled together at WrestleMania I. The event also featured Tito Santana running in to help Valentine get disqualified by cheating, which is a classic heel tactic, and Valentine humorously reflects on making it through the match intact.
He highlights JYD’s gimmick-driven style vs. Valentine’s more technical approach, noting that despite the gimmick, JYD was a legitimate tough guy, and learning how to work around those gimmicks was key to producing entertaining matches. Valentine’s take underscores the importance of understanding the different styles and personas in wrestling to create compelling bouts.
