Bob Wall Talks About Bruce Lee And Chuck Norris

Bob Wall (Actor and Martial Artist): Way of the Dragon is an interesting story, because Chuck Norris and I, we were 50-50 partners in a chain of schools. We have a large chain of schools. We are in one of our big schools in Torrance, California, 1972, and Chuck’s on the phone talking to Bruce. Bruce had called. He gets off the phone. He says, “I’m going to Rome. And then, I’m going to Hong Kong and I’ll do a movie with Bruce.” And I go, “We’re 50-50 partners, baby. You’re not going anywhere without me.” So I paid my own way. So we’re on the plane getting ready to land in Rome, and Chuck says, “You know, Bruce’s budget’s really low, and so, he’s going to be filming me when I get off the plane.
