Ask 411 Wrestling 04.15.09: Divas Going Topless, Divas Getting Screwed, & Chief Morley!

Posted by Mathew Sforcina on 04.15.2009

Did Goldust travel back in time? Did Ray Traylor feud with himself? Why wasn't Raven allowed to go to War? Did TNA really rip off No Holds Barred? And haven't I done enough Fantasy Booking? Apparently not, as I do more inside. Not that you care, that teaser's enough to drag you in. No-one can resist Chief Morley...

Welcome to another edition of Ask 411 Wrestling. April is often a bit hectic for me, but right now it's a downright blur, with lots of stuff going on. Not that you care. After all, you're here to get your questions answered or post snarky comments about how I suck or to see funny videos or whatever. You're not here to read about my life, nor are you here to see me shill my Fed's HUGE shows this weekend in the Sydney CBD and at Wollongong this Saturday and Sunday, featuring Al Snow, Chris Masters, A Steel Cage and much much more, information here! No, not at all.

Sometimes it's like I'm TRYING to piss the Trolls off, isn't it…

Backtalking

Oh boy. Lot to cover here.

Postmodern Wrestling World?: If we were, Russo would still be booking WCW since 95% of his stuff required you to know a hell of a lot. WWE just occasionally throws in a little bit for us, but not enough to confuse the average fan who in all probability doesn't read all this stuff.

Immediate Tombstone Kick Outs: I'm sure Hogan no-sold one at some point, but Kane at Wrestlemania XIV is the most obvious answer.

I'm sexy: Uh… Thanks?

Kayfabe: So… if it's irrelevant, why the anger?

Hence: What word would you have me use then? It's a column where I answer questions, ipso facto the word will come up a fair bit. Would ‘therefore' be preferable? Hell, "answer" and "was" probably both appear a fair bit in these things as well, why don't they bother you?

I used Savage Twice: Yeah yeah, I made a mistake. Replace Savage/Flair with Hogan/Warrior.

Superstars Green Screen: Apparently I've been overruled here, and yes, they were there most of the time. Jason D'Agostino claimed they began to switch in 89-90, whereas others claimed otherwise.

Revolving around PPVs: Keith pointed out that PPV is also where storylines (usually) pay off, and thus it's smart to give you the lead up for free then make you pay for the conclusion. A concept Vince Russo has NEVER understood.

The Ultimate Wrestlemania/Nerd Convention Kafuffle: Wow, such anger. You'd think you were paying to read this stuff or something.

Ok, to be honest, I posted both articles under the assumption that they would be posted on the same day at the same time. I pretty much had a similar train of thought to you, some people didn't want to read it, so I cut it out and posted it sperate so that you didn't have to. Thus the UW didn't have any indication that a regular one was on the way in the text since when it was posted it assumed that they'd be public at the same time.

The bosses disagreed, and they pushed the Ask 411 back a day to give the UW a moment in the sun. Thus, given the date, I stuck in the Fooled You bit into the Ask 411 thing mostly as a joke. I probably should have Chandlered it, but at the time I thought it wasn't the worst thing in the world. Apparently you disagreed. And hey, more power to you.

As for the Nerd Convention, I say that AS a nerd, and quite a big one at that. My name on the 411 forums contains two sci-fi references, I ripped off my wrestling name from one of them, I have a large Munchkin collection and more dice than I have… practically any other objects I own, really. Obviously the tone I usually say Nerd Convention in is lost in the printed word. Oh, and I fail to see how paying to attend is more cool then being paid to perform there.

Your Turn, Smart Guy…

Marty Jannetty is the answer I was looking for, yes. The explanation was given fairly early on, and Shawn Michaels only ever held the tag titles with Diesel, unless Steve Austin or John Cena were inducted into the Clique and I didn't notice.

I'm tempted one of these weeks to have Paul Rome be the answer, but I'm not sure you guys could handle that. So instead, a video game based question.

True or false: No-one who appeared in both WCW/nWo Revenge and WWF No Mercy is still employed by WWE.

Questions, Questions, Who's Got The Questions?

CanadianCrippler starts us off with a sore topic, for me at least.

Heya friend! I'm new to reading 411, and enjoyed your article.

I gotsta ask'ya though, about Fire Pro in HD? Being a new reader, I may have missed out on the details. Sorry if this has already been covered, and sorry if it is a sore issue! Also, sorry if that's a vague question, but I'm curious to know what the deal is/was. I'm a long-time Fire Pro fan, which probably explains my curiosity.

In short -- what is the Fire Pro HD "joke" issue?

Thank you for your time, and the effort in your articles, Mr. Sforcina!

Well, the full story is explained, in length, here, but the gist of the matter is that Fire Pro HD was a hoax, kinda. Basically someone on Fire Pro Club (the biggest Fire Pro community on the net, I believe, certainly the biggest in English) thought that Spike, the company that has the rights to it, had stopped making Fire Pro games. So, he spread the news about this new game (and a Wii game) with the intent, apparently, on getting everyone all worked up, then using this to motivate and mobilize the fans to demand the game get made.

An unusual plan, to say the least.

This as yet has not worked, and instead the entire Fire Pro fanbase is feeling very angry and what have you. Especially guys like me, since Fire Pro, to the best of my knowledge, has never been officially released in Australia. I've played an import at a friends house for like half an hour and I've been forcing myself to not go through the chaos of importing (which I know will be full of problems) to get one myself. Sure, graphically it's miles behind the latest WWE games, but the gameplay and depth is incredible.

So basically Fire Pro HD was some stupid guy's bad idea of a motivator. Sadly.

Onto more serious questions, Greg has some. 1) and 2) will appear in the Opinion section.

3) When Val Venis dropped his gimmick and sided with Eric Bischoff and became Chief Sean Morley (a.k.a his real name), I remember Morley got nothing from the crowds. No boos, no cheers,; you could hear a pin drop in the arena. My question is: why would the crowd do that? Yeah I know; because he joined Eric's regime. But yet when he changed back to Val Venis, the crowds loved him. They couldn't remember his turn?

Sorry for that rant.

No sweat, I shouldn't be the only one.

The problem was that the Chief Morley character was pretty bland. At least when he joined RTC, Val was still somewhat interesting, as the former debauched porn star renouncing his ways. But Chief Morley was just a generic henchman character. It could have been interesting to play off Morley trying to just ignore his past as he made a new life or something, but he certainly had little going for him, either from a storyline/gimmick perspective nor from a charisma standpoint (sure, he tried, but he was hardly able to rock the mic in that role).

After all, that was what led to the creation of the Val Venis persona to begin with, Russo just couldn't find anything in Morley to create a character off of, just that the guy looked like a porn star. And Val Venis was off and running.

Kevin has a few issues to raise himself.

1. I seem to remember a WWF program during 89-91? During the opening, very quickly they show Randy Savage nailing a flying elbow onto what appears to be Goldust? Even thought this was a good 4 years before he debuted. Am I on crack or did this happen?

Maybe both. Shows on at that point were All American Wrestling, Prime Time Wrestling, Superstars of Wrestling, The Main Event, Wrestling Challenge and Wrestling Spotlight. Without knowing more about the show it's hard to say, but in all probability it would have been a member of Demolition. Depending on the visual effects, anyone in face paint and short hair might fit the bill, but it certainly wasn't Goldust, in that while Dustin Rhodes did have a short run in WWF in 90-91, he never fought Randy Savage. So it didn't happen.

2. When Shane Douglas wrestled in the WWF in early 90`s, did he ever win the Intercontinental Tile at a house show or was there talk of him winning it? Also was he supposed to team with or replace one of the rockers?

Shane Douglas didn't technically ‘win' the IC title, but he was awarded it. Shawn Michaels, after the Syracuse Nightclub beatdown, had to forfeit the IC title due to injury. He thus handed over the title at the IYH: Great White North PPV to Dean Douglas. Shane got the belt for a whole 15 or so minutes as he was forced to defend it immediately against Razor Ramon who pretty much dismantled him to win the title. Which explains, in part, why Shane doesn't list Clique members on his Christmas card list.

3. What Smackdown star, behind the scenes, was it, that hooked up with Dawn Marie when she entered the WWE? Not Torrie Wilson.

Behind the scenes? I couldn't find any rumors or innuendo. She apparently didn't sate anyone within the company between breaking up with Swinger and meeting this Matt guy she's married to now.

4. Was there supposed to be another main event for Survivor Series 2007 then the one we got? I think I remember seeing an advertisement for a Main event between Sabu, Van Dam and someone else vs a Raw Team vs a Smackdown team?

I doubt it, since RVD was gone in June and Sabu in May. Maybe at some point a ECW V Raw V SD match might have been on the cards, but Sabu and RVD were long gone before Survivor Series.

5. When Ray Traylor wrestled in WCW in mid 90`s, he went under a few gimmicks. Again I may have been on crack but was there maybe a time when he was feuding with anther character that he portrayed? Like the Guardian Angel cutting promos on The Boss Man?

I think what you'll find is that you're thinking about the period after he had to stop being The Guardian Angel, and he denounced the gimmick after turning heel, becoming Big Bubba Rogers again. Or maybe the other way round, having just become the Angel, he denounced The Boss character. WCW were stupid, but they'd never reach the level of stupidity of having Ray's characters feud would require until Warrior came in.

Following on, Scott Spencer.

Thanks for keeping up the column. I'm sure it is quite a bit of work.

Here's my question- For no good reason, I was watching WCW's World War 3 in 1997. The NWO makes a separate entrance. The are all holding up the 6 T-shirt, but Syxx/Sean Waltman is not there. Why were they all making a big deal about the shirt, waving it about and almost all of them wearing it?

Because Sean Waltman was at home having recently suffered the neck injury that he'd end up getting fired from WCW while still recovering from. It was a ‘show of unity' in that the nWo were thinking of him while he was out.

Another smaller question about the same show, all of the wrestlers who worked the undercard were also in the battle royal, even Curt Hennig who was 'injured'. The only exceptions seemed to be Perry Saturn, Raven and Scotty Riggs- was there any reason for this, storyline or otherwise?

It was Storyline. At that point, Raven was still ‘not under contract' with WCW, in fact he was confronted on that very show by JJ Dillon and given an ultimatum to sign a contract within 24 hours or be banned from WCW TV. Saturn was part of Raven's Flock, and Riggs was carried off to be indoctrinated and thus join Raven's Flock. Since no-one in The Flock was a WCW employee, they didn't get into World War III.

No, it's not The Riddler, but Jonberg.

Riddle me this Mathew,

What's with all the columns? Does Vince think his wrestlers are Romans? Every build up vid or returning soon vid seems to feature panning of the superstar with loads of Roman/Grecian (I'm not an archaeology buff) columns in the background. Is this a studio or green screen? Is there any real reason beyond wishing he was the boss of gods rather than superstars? Hey maybe that could be a fun column, or at least a second question. How would you attribute Superstars to the Greek Pantheon? Eg HHH = Zeus, Undertaker = Hades etc

No, it's more about impressions and such. There are worse things to be thought of with than Gods and Empires. Plus they do look cool. If a character is powerful or arrogant or long lasting or what have you, columns help to give that impression. Now, if they introduced some girl next door American sweetheart and they had columns, that would be a problem.

I always thought that TNA's ring was revolutionary. Then I saw the trailer for No Holds Barred. Zeus and Hogan in the Impact Zone! So the question is, just when did someone first use a six sided ring?

The first professional wrestling company to use a 6 sided ring was the Lucha company Asistencia Asesoría y Administración, AAA, which brought it in in the mid 1990's. AAA utilizes it only for special occasions, with TNA being perhaps the sole major company to exclusively use a six sided ring. And the ring in No Holds Barred was 8 sided, not 6. Just to be pedantic.

Adam has a quick one.

The question about kayfabe breaking wrestling moves got me thinking. Has anyone ever successfully powerbombed Billy Kidman?

Yes, Dean Malenko has I believe, and/or Perry Saturn back in WCW. Shelton Benjamin has in the WWE, Vengeance 2003. So, like Flair hitting something off the top rope, it can be done.

Now this is exactly the level of excitement and convinently color coding we are so surely missing in today's world of Professional Wrestling.



Rob S asks two questions about Diva nudity and Divas getting screwed, hence giving me the perfect lead in for this week's title.

A few years ago i remember seeing a video clip online of a Miss Jacqueline "wardrobe malfunction", in which her top completely came off and she immediately covered her chest with her arms. I believe it was from a Smackdown episode, but i did not catch it on tv. Does anyone have any information on when this occured, and who she was wrestling against?

P.S. I thought that many of the Divas use some sort of tape to prevent any "wardrobe malfunctions" during matches, but i could be wrong.

No, this was not on an episode of Smackdown. This was in fact an England only PPV, WWF Capitol Carnage in 1998. Jacqueline teamed with Marc Mero against Sable and Christian. After Christian chased Mero to the back, Jacqueline was beaten down then pinned by Sable using a TKO. After this, Jacqueline attacked referee Tim White, blaming him for the loss. Tim then stood up with Jacqueline on his shoulders, and Sable grabbed her shirt from behind and pulled, leaving Jacqueline topless. After a moment of being stunned, she got down and ran to the back.

This was a wardrobe malfunction in the same way that (allegedly) the incident that created that phrase was one. That was a planned spot, with the Attitude of the WWF being allowed to go a bit more thanks to England's more lenient attitude to Nudity. Newspapers have naked chicks on page 3 over there and everything!

And it wasn't the last time a Diva would get topless on an English only PPV. At the 2000 Insurrextion PPV, The Kat defeated Terri Runnels in an Arm Wrestling contest. After this, Terri ripped The Kat's shirt off. But rather than be shocked, Kat responded by showing off her boobs instead.

Well, it's certainly a novel way to humiliate your opponent.

With the news recently of the WWE contacting Wendi Richter about appearing at the WM diva battle royal, I checked out her match against Spider Lady, which was obviously the Fabulous Moolah. The match ended in a legitimate "screwjob", but when wrestling fans think of the term "screwjob" most fans immediately think of the Bret Hart fiasco from the Survivor Series. Are there any other known instances of in-ring "screwjobs" that have occured in the WWF/WWE other than these two?

Ignoring all the Montreal references and repeats, there's only one and it's not 100% confirmed as one.



That shows the conclusion of the Sunny/Debra Evening Gown Match which saw Sable strip Debra down to her bra and panties, only to have Shawn Michaels (of course) come out as Commish and declare that as far as he was concerned, the winner of an evening gown match was the woman who lost her clothes, Shawn grabbing the belt and declaring Debra the winner.

Now, I have heard that this was a screwjob, but not from anyone I could call reliable. But it fits the time and the people involved. Sable and WWF were breaking down, their negotiations were failing, so they might have screwed her over.

Or it may have been a somewhat clever angle. It's hard to tell.

JZA asks about your NEW ROH Champion.

Actually, whilst i'm here may as well ask something no other ask 411 guy seems to know about. Remember some angry shoot style promo jerry lynn cut on JR of all people at judgement day 2001? what was the deal with that?! Was there legit heat or was that meant to build somewhere? I don't remember them doing anything with it at the time or even referencing it after, and I seem to remember him getting wished well in future endeavours shortly after.

Well, lets review the tape. The promo is at the 9:45 mark or so. Note that the first part of the video is the end of the Benoit/Angle 2/3 Falls Ladder Match for the Medals, should you feel the need to pretend that this footage does not exist or what have you.

WWF Judgment Day 2001 Part 3Uploaded by Mazden90

Well, at the time the WWF was just hiring guys for the hell of it practically. They seemed to be pushing Lynn in one of those "push that isn't really a push" ways, in that he won the Light Heavyweight title in his first match in the company, beating Crash Holly for it via cheating. They seemed to be setting Lynn up as the angry young man, frustrated and such. Attacking JR in that promo was to firmly establish that Lynn was angry but wasn't angry in a good way, he was lashing out at JR, and JR is a good guy.

Or maybe they wanted to put the Light Heavyweight title on JR, WWF wasn't the most consistent and/or long term looking company at the time.

Hair care questions from JMAC

I seem to recall that back before it became en vouge to use clippers on someone losing a hair vs. hair match, wrestlers used some sort of a cream-based product to remove hair and it looked like the whole process really only took seconds before the guy was completely bald. In particular, I think this was a method most used by the Freebirds back in their Mid-South days. Maybe I'm looking at things through mark-colored glasses but do you have any idea on what might have been used back then?

That would be Chemical Depilatory Creams. They are fairly common if you look in the beauty section of your local supermarket, although perhaps not the huge bottles they used to use in those angles. They work by chemically weakening the bonds holding the hair in place and thus making it easy to remove. Of course, now days wrestlers are a lot less willing to go totally bald and half the time they end up just with a crew cut. And when they do go bald, often they want to stretch out the moment and thus the cream isn't used because it'd be too fast.

luke asked these questions in the comments section a while back. One here, one in the opinions.

What in God's name went wrong with the Light Heavyweight title in the WWF? Did they ever try and push it and get a bad response or what? It seems like one minute it was on TAKA and the next in wallowed away on Gillberg and other less than stellar champions.

Because Vince McMahon/Vince Russo had NO idea what people saw in the Cruiserweights in WCW. The Light Heavyweight belt was clearly a rip off of the Cruiser belt, but unlike that division, which featured lots of high flying, exciting matches, the WWF had the exact same type of show as the normal divisions, just with smaller guys. When you want a belt to compete with the WCW Cruiserweights, you do NOT build the division around Brian Christopher. Sure, TAKA had the belt, but Brian was the ‘star'. And that's all that was wrong at that point with the WWF, right there.

Kenneth has some questions.

I have always wanted to ask some questions to 411wrestling, but couldn't think of anything that I thought was good enough, but I'll try anyway:

1. Recently I picked up one of the Apter mags at the grocery store and I read a quote attributed to Beer Money, Inc. saying that they didn't care how they won "as long as we get the winner's share of the purse". That made me wonder--has there ever been any kayfabe explanation of how wrestlers earn their money, or how much of a percentage were managers supposed to receive (back in the day)?

Well, managers back in the day got anywhere from 10-25% (25% being the amount Jimmy Hart still got off the Hart Foundation even after he had turned on him) unless it was an angle with the client being really stupid, in which case the sky was the limit.

Nowadays, in the WWE at least, it's all about contracts, with MVP's woes with losing his performance bonus and such giving you an idea. Back in the day you were fighting for a portion of the gate takings, each match would get a percentage and whoever won got the bigger share, or some such, which explains why so many people in the mid 90's in WWF needed second jobs to pay the rent.

2. I have been enjoying watching videos on You Tube of wrestlers celebrating after winning a championship belt, and I was wondering how they feel and react when they are told backstage they are to win the belt?

Depends on the guy. Sometimes it's shock (Ivan Koloff was totally surprised at his victory), sometimes it's quiet acceptance, sometimes it's smug head nodding, other times it's thankful assurances that they'd made the right call. Every person is different. I've yet to see anyone jump around and act like they are orgasming there and then.

boy liilii asks about The Great Muta and fire.

hey i got a question that has been bugging me for a while! when i was a kid i remember a steel cage match with sting and the great muta, but in this match the cage somehow caught fire and the great muta seeing this sprayed his mist to put out the fire! do you recall this match?

Yes I do. Sting and Ric Flair vs. The Great Muta and Terry Funk, Halloween Havoc 89, a Thunderdome Cage match, Bruno Sammartino as the special guest ref. A bit of decorative canvas caught fire from the ‘electrified' cage and Muta misted out. As JD Dunn noted, ‘Only Muta can prevent forest fires'.

My Damm Opinion

Here's that 1) and 2) from Greg

1) What was the best kept secret in wrestling? The worst kept secret? (Personally the worst kept secret I think was Jericho's return to the WWE)

Best kept? Hogan's heel turn at Bash at the Beach, with special mention to DDP being the Stalker. Worst kept? Anything related to the WCW Disney Tapings.

2) How many tag team wrestlers have broken away from their tag team partner and gone onto great success? (I.E., Shawn Michaels after he turned on Marty; who else has done that. I think Nitro/Morrison would count)

This is one of those questions that appears to belong in the above section, but really it's a matter of perspective.

Assuming you mean a tag team on a grand scale and not just some tag team in the past (Jericho with the Thrill Seekers, for instance…)

Bret Hart from The Hart Foundation
Booker T from Harlem Heat
Edge and Christian
The Hardy Boys
Arn Anderson from The Minnesota Wrecking Crew
JBL from APA

Anyone else?

Damien?

Love your column. I had two questions for you:

1. Do you think superstars such as Edge, Randy Orton, Cena & the Hardys have already locked up their Hall of Fame bids or do they need a couple more years under their belts?

No-one is a lock for the HOF until they get in. At any moment anyone could say or do something and piss Vince off enough to have them removed from the WWE Universe. So while from a unbiased standpoint yes, all of them have achieved enough to warrant inclusion, they aren't locks.

2. Why is it that John Morrison hasn't received that Main Event push yet? I see so much of Shawn Michaels in him and I believe that if they give him great programs to work with he could be a major superstar on the rise.

Well, they appear to be doing so now, despite this meaning that one of the most entertaining acts of Modern Wrestling that doesn't wear a dress gets broken up because of it. Because after all, who'd want to see Miz and Morrison as Unified Tag Champs…

luke?

I'm glad it's you i get to ask this actually, since you did a lot of female editions of the ES and all: everyone knows that the 1993 - 1996 revival of the Women's title in the WWF was a disaster, with its' only heated and featured feud being ruined by outside factors (sniff sniff). Do you think women's wrestling could ever have been made to work at that point in history, and if so what would you have done booking-wise to make it work?

Honestly? It would have been near impossible, given that most of the really talented women in the world were Japanese, and WWF would never had been able to make any large influx of Japanese women work, nor the desire to do so.

Which is not to say that there weren't talented women in North America at the time, but the true top flight talent tended to be Joshi. But, the question is asked, so I'll now answer it. Skip to the next in bold bit if you don't care about my fantasy booking.

So, if I was given the book, and free reign/limitless money/no politics, I would have run an Invasion angle, of sorts. Start it in late 95, say. Have Bertha Faye defending her title against Blayze (like her or not, she was the best/only choice for the leading face… Hell, the belt was brought back specifically for her) on a Raw. Alundra manages to fight off Harvey, German Bertha and win her title back. Have, hell, the 6 Japanese women from Survivor Series 95 (Tomoko Watanabe, Lioness Asuka, Sakie Hasegawa, Kyoko Inoue, Chapparita Asari and Aja Kong playing Queen) suddenly storm the ring and just mug both girls. I'm talking a severe, major beatdown. Harvey runs away as the women (all wearing shirts saying "The Tokyo Kin" or something) just beat down Alundra then injure Bertha, Kong taking her out with something over the top.

Blayze, of course, refuses to back down, and demands retribution, and gets a match against Kong at Survivor Series, for the title. Alundra manages to beat a few of the women in 1 on 1 matches but always gets beat down and then always gets back up. But at Survivor Series, she gets squashed and loses the title.

You then have Alundra form her own army, bringing back in the Jumping Bomb Angels, as well as a few American girls. The two sides battle constantly, a 10 woman tag match at the Rumble featuring Blazye pinning Kong to win, Kong's first loss. This leads to Blayze/Kong at WM, Blayze wins, then gets turned on by whoever became her number 2 in her army, as the Kin also splinter up and you form tag teams and such.

That's the short version.

The Hitcher gets the last questions this week.

My question today is more of an opinion, do you think WWE will change the Spinner Belt anytime soon? I thought they'd have done it by now, after all it's Cena's belt (and even still has ‘RAW' emblazoned on the side-panels). I've been expecting a change ever since Trips won it, but no dice. I'd have thought Vince wouldn't have wanted his most prestigious strap to look like a piece of sh*t once it was no longer connected to the marketing juggernaught that is John Cena. Add this to the fact that they still sell the Brock Lesnar Undisputed WWE Title on WWE.COM, I think it's a no-brainer (although even that belt could do with tweaking, looks too much like the old IC Belt).

I too would LOVE a return to the Undisputed belt, since I thought that belt was insanely cool. But sadly the Spinner belt is both popular with the kids AND is now divorced enough from Cena that it's not identified with him. I mean, I guess it's ‘modern', but I still think it looks like crap. But sadly, we appear to be in the minority.

Next question about belts (no I do not have a fetish) do you think the IC Belt could get some of its mojo back if it reverted to the original style?

No. It needs a revamp, but not a reversion. The IC belt design has lasted far too long.

Last question. With the inclusion of the Ultimate Warrior in the Legends of Wrestlemania game, there was talk of a Warrior/Vince reconciliation. We know this may not be the case as UW may have dealt with Jakks directly in order to appear in the game. However, the Warrior has been getting mentioned A LOT recently on WWE.COM, and most recently by both Edge on Raw, and a rather funny Ultimate Warrior promo by John Morrison on The Dirt Sheet (with UW Logos in the background – owned by UW Creations Ltd apparently). With the Warrior apparently being so touchy about the usage of his image/name etc, and the not so long ago Self-Destruction of the Ultimate Warrior DVD, do you think this recent turn of events make it likely we may see him again in a WWE ring? He's been completely incognito since his comeback match last June; I'm thinking he may be hiding in parts unknown, lying beneath lawnmowers, getting roided up and growing out his hair, maybe Gorilla-Pressing Jericho or Vince at WMXXV??

Well clearly this didn't happen, but as the saying goes, Never Say Never. But the Morrison Warrior promo I believe can be argued as parody and thus is not sueable. But you can never tell with Warrior. Or Vince.

That's really the final word on the subject. Both men love money, and if they ever see the same pile of money and they can get it by working together, they will. But it's still a long shot.
