There's a famous clip of a bloodied-up Terry Funk shouting "forever" many times while in Japan, but I've never actually seen the full clip of his speech. Does anyone by chance have a link to the full speech or even the match that preceded the speech. Any info is appreciated.  |

I only know of the speech from the Beyond The Mat movie.
From what I understand it was supposed to be his farewell speech from Japan, since he was never going to return there and then he signed with the WWE to compete there - probably thinking forever. Of course that WWE career lasted maybe a year if that at the time.

I thought this was his retirement speech. Although his gimmick eventually turned into "I'm gonna retire every 5 years", I thought this was supposed to be a legit goodbye. Wasn't this in 1983?

Thanks for the help guys. Yea, I was watching Beyond that Mat earlier and needed to find this match. I finally found a video of the match and it includes his speech. Definitely an interesting watch. I attached the video below. www.veoh.com/watch/v660664mfz2gz35Also, the Terry Funk versus Bret Hart retirment match from Beyond the Mat is on the WWE Network. Found that out while I was searching for this video  |

Found that out while I was searching for this video that makes sense, as it was basically a ecw ran event featuring whatever wwf guys that wanted to be featured. |
