In a recent interview with WrestleZone Radio, former WWF superstar Duke “The Dumpster” Droese discussed several topics, including whether he felt that he represented the blue-collar worker while part of the company.

“Vince McMahon was still holding on to a lot of the same ideals in the 1980s and into the 1990s, trying to do the same things. Whether it worked or not, I knew that’s what he was looking for, and I knew he was always looking for someone to get over with the people, especially the working-class man. A ‘blue-collar’ gimmick was perfect and that’s why I came up with it in Florida when I was working the independent scene. I wrestled as ‘The Garbage Man’ Rocco Gibraltar.”
