Honky Tonk Man criticizes former WWE tag partner Greg Valentine for no-showing the Randy Savage tribute show

WWE legend The Honky Tonk Man criticized Greg Valentine for no-showing the Randy Savage tribute show that took was promoted by Great North Wrestling last weekend. "Greg Valentine's been long enough to know better," HTM said in a clip that's been posted online. "For him to do that to the promoter up in Canada. To tell someone unless you send me more money I'm not coming to then get the money and not show up.

"To me it's not the right thing to do. I'm not saying I'm a saint and that I haven't done thing's in my professional life but I've never asked for more money then not showed up at all (Once he got it). Everyone has a history. It's the fact you (Greg) asked for more money. You should call the fella up and say I don't like the arrangements for this show, lets sort it out."

Honky also responded to Valentine referring to Lanny Poffo as an idiot. "You don't have to take your personal thoughts on someone because of what sort of business deal they made," he said. "He was way out of line. To then call the guy the next day and say sorry and then not show up. It's like Pulp Fiction the Valentine Situation."

Powell's POV: Valentine has yet to respond publicly to the claims made by the promoter and other wrestlers on the show.
