1991 - Basically he wanted the same money Hulk Hogan was getting even though Hogan was a far bigger draw. Before Summerslam 1991 went on air, he held Vince McMahon to ransom saying he wanted $1 million cash or he wasn't working the show. Vince paid him, he worked and was immediately fired as soon as he came through the certain after the main event.

1992 - WWF was clamping down big time on steroids. Everyone was told to get off them and keep away from anything similar. Davey Boy Smith and Warrior were then caught using HGH and were fired.

1996 - In a nutshell, he no showed 3 house shows for no reason (he claimed his father died but he died suddenly on the night of the third show so he had no reason to miss the other two). He was told if he posted a bond (forget the amount but I think it was like $250,000) then he could come back. He never did.

Confession time - If you watch Summerslam 1992 close enough during the Warriors entrance, you will see a 12 year old Rob Harvey marking out in the second row. I swear it was a one time thing and I haven't done it since
