Seems to be very true and sounds like when he connected wrestling with comparing himself to Lou Reed recently. Something about how he was only 2nd to Lou Reed in being the biggest "heel" in rock history. Another example of Corgan approximating some imagined past reality. Lou was just Lou, and there are plenty of public examples of him being pretty down to earth. It's also a weird contradiction as Corgan has always openly disdained anything considered 'underground' or being a part of 'hip' culture.
