World Wrestling Federation
In 1987 Casey began wrestling for the World Wrestling Federation (now known as WWE). He appeared in single matches as a baby face on WWF TV shows helping maintain top heels like The Honky Tonk Man, Greg Valentine, and the Iron Sheik look strong. He would also wrestle the odd tag team match on WWF TV with other mid-opening card guys like S D Jones, Sam Houston and Lanny Poffo, to put over top heel teams like the Hart Foundation, the Islanders and Demolition. On the WWF house show events he scored most of his victories wrestling opening card matches against Steve Lombardi, Iron Mike Sharpe and the Red Rooster. His most high-profile appearance was at the 1988 Survivor Series where he teamed with Jake Roberts, Tito Santana, Ken Patera and Jim Duggan in a losing effort against André the Giant, Rick Rude, Mr. Perfect, Harley Race and Dino Bravo. Casey continued to wrestle for the World Wrestling Federation until he left in 1990.

Famous quotes containing the words world, wrestling and/or federation:
“There are no more ideologies in the authentic sense of false consciousness, only advertisements for the world through its duplication and the provocative lie which does not seek belief but commands silence.”
—Theodor W. Adorno (1903–1969)
“We laugh at him who steps out of his room at the very moment when the sun steps out, and says: “I will the sun to rise”; and at him who cannot stop the wheel, and says: “I will it to roll”; and at him who is taken down in a wrestling match, and says: “I lie here, but I will that I lie here!” And yet, all laughter aside, do we ever do anything other than one of these three things when we use the expression, “I will”?”
—Friedrich Nietzsche (1844–1900)
“Women realize that we are living in an ungoverned world. At heart we are all pacifists. We should love to talk it over with the war-makers, but they would not understand. Words are so inadequate, and we realize that the hatred must kill itself; so we give our men gladly, unselfishly, proudly, patriotically, since the world chooses to settle its disputes in the old barbarous way.”
—General Federation Of Women’s Clubs (GFWC)
