I have heard dozens of time how he hates Vince and I've always wondered why? Because of money? And please, don't just say it's because of steroids.

I'm sure it was a combination of things

First and foremost would be that Vince cut off his run as WWE Champ, Warrior probably felt McMahon was in bed with Hogan and they conspired to end his run. In reality Warrior wans't nearly as big of a draw as Hogan was.

He might also have heat with Vince because of how his second run with the company went down, and that did have to do with steroids/drugs.

I dont know all the details about his last run with the company but I'm sure there were some booking differences there as well.

On the third run, Warrior says Vince McMahon owed him money from using his Warrior trademark and licensing agreements for his comic and wrestling school and he never got it. He did no show 3 weekend dates. His excuse was his father died. Sources say he wasn't close to him at all but regardless. he died on the day of the third show so he has no reason to missed the first two. Vince told him post a bond (something like $200,000) and then he could return but he would lose that money if he no showed again. Warrior told him to piss off. Vince knew he would and it was his way of getting out of the contract. It all went to court and Warrior actually won.

Where's that moronic poster who said Warrior should be booking the WWE? He should read this :roll:

Also, Warrior demanded a cool mil for main eventing Summerslam 91 or he wouldn't do the show...I think Vince gave him the money, so he did the show, then when he came back through the curtain, Vince terminated his ass.

Correct me if I'm wrong.

Don't know if the part about the firing is right. I think Warrior quit the company, not fired, after Summerslam ended.

No you are 100% right. On the day of the show, he demanded a million dollars cash or he wouldn't do the show. Vince fired him immediately after it.

You were actually the one that I read that story off, I was just hoping I got all the facts right.

What it boils down to is Warrior's delusion that he's some sort of godlike superhero adored by millions, when in fact he should be kissing Vince's ass that he was ever more than an upper midcarder at all.

Well, to be fair to the Warrior, he did deserve the Title at Mania 6. The crowd was really behind him and he deserved the push he got. To me, he was a great IC Champ too. I sort of compare his run to Goldberg as US CHAMP. They were unstoppable and gave the belt a lot of credibility. I remember when Rude beat Warrior for the IC Title at Mania 5, the crowd booed the shit out of Rude and were really pissed.

But Remember when Warrior beat Honky for the IC Title in 88, holy shit the crowd went nuts. That was awesome. Mostly do to the fact that finally someone had taken the Title from HTM.

Problem with the Warrior's run as World Champ though, was that the WWF had no heels lined up for him. The WWF fed him Rude as a challenger, but nobody gave a shit because Warrior had beaten Rude before. So his run ended up failing because of lack of heels and other things.

In that case you are a million percent right :D

Well I guess Warrior deserved to be fired after something like that. But don't the Wrestlemania main eventers actually do get paid a lot? I was just wondering how much they were going to pay him originally?


I have another question about Warrior but this time involved with WCW. Why did he have such a short stint in there? As far as I know he didn't do much anything but lost to Hogan and left. Didn't he have a longer contract or did he just quit?

Rob

Well he wanted the million dollar cash because Hogan made more money than him. He should remember Hogan was the draw. You think the Iron Sheik made a million bucks that night?

Warrior had a 6 month deal in WCW. Hogan basically got him in so he could beat him. They did that in the first 3 months and never used him for the next 3.

Maybe it's because Warrior is a FUCKING MORON! That guy hasn't said anything worth listening to since his 1st grade spelling bee. Seriously, why is this even in question? Warrior has never known what he wanted. He wants money, then respect, then a push, then a belt, then money again. The guy is a friggin ferris wheel of stupidity.

Wanting a million for Summerslam 91? I could call up Gillberg for a more exciting performer. If I were Vince in that situation, I would have fired Warrior, then rehired him just to fire him again.

I like reading his comments on his official website...No matter how dumb you think someone is, remember, there is always the Ultimate Warrior.

Warrior is a freak and his official site is full of his weird shit.

"Recently - rumors have been circulating about The Ultimate Warrior's return to pro wrestling.

Why, and how do rumors get started?

First off, what the hell is a rumor?

A rumor is a report of uncertain origin and accuracy; hearsay.

And what is hearsay?

Hearsay is information heard from another.

Let me see if I can understand something here. Let's look at the facts - the certain things.

Joe Blow, or better yet, StoneCold33-99 has a web page. You didn't know? Sure, HbkHhh01-99 has one too - they all do.

You didn't know? Now you do.

All the wannabes, the Undertakers, the HitMans, the Stings, the DDP's, the Macho Mans, on and on and on...gotta have a web page, maybe even a couple - then it becomes an official site.

You didn't know? Now you do.

They have to have one. So they do. Now, they've never met Joe Blow (he's my favorite) in person, albeit, they have talked of hooking up with one another at the next Dude Love convention. Talk of doing so is certain. He's got a web page. That too - is certain. Therefore, his release of uncertain information must be certain. Besides, you are certain, he's certain - it must become certain to squelch the uncertainty.

You didn't know? Now you do.

Now, wrestling rumors must really be certain. Why? Because they are a work within a work. And everyone knows two works makes a real, i.e., two uncertains become a certain, just like two negatives become a positive.

You didn't know? Now you do.

How do rumors spread so quickly? Credible reporting by credulous reporters. By self-claiming certainty experts propogating "copy and paste" materials (their claim to credible reporting) - especially erroneous info.The internet is overwhelmed with wannabes who "are". Are credulous. Are asinine. Are ignoramus. Are braindead. Are, are, are. Certainly, certainly, certainly.

You didn't know? Now you do.

Now you are certain.

You didn't know? Now you do.

I'm Certain...Always.

Warriorman"

The Ultimate Warrior is a moron.

By his own language, this is certain.

He NEEDS to write a book. :D If that would not be the most entertaining thing in the entire world, I don't know what would be.
