WWE all of Famer Nikolai Volkoff remembers his longtime friend, Fabulous Moolah:

I remember Moolah when I joined WWE in 1970. She was a Champion and a beautiful lady, and she could be rough and tough, too. She really loved to wrestle, really loved it. She was big into being healthy and working out all the time. I think that’s why we got along so well, because neither of us smoked or drank.

I remember she would tell you how she felt about you right to your face, whether she liked you or not. She pulled no punches, and I appreciated that honesty. We never had an argument, Moolah and I.

Inside the ring, she trained a lot of the women wrestlers. She trained them right, too. She taught them to respect people. And everyone who trained with Moolah, they had respect for her.
