Don Zimmer is probably a little afraid of him.
Pedro reminded me of a bullfighter in that one as he dodged and also tossed Zimmer down/aside in one fluid, elegant motion.
The local papers were all indignant about that. Tell you what, if some geriatric Popeye looking madman starting charging me, I probably woulda cold-cocked him. Let alone just push him to the ground.
I was a bit surprised anybody had a problem with Pedro there. What did they want him to do? Had he jumped on him like Randy "Macho Man" Savage for the pin, then yeah I would've had a problem with it.
