Yeah he tried to straight square up with Butterbean. Really shouldn't have done that considering the size difference and the notorious punching power of Bean. He was doomed from the start.

What actually could have been though if Dr. Death didn't tear his hamstring and won the whole thing?

Assuming 5 mill is what they were paying for Williams's deal and then he effectively couldn't fulfill it - yes, they lost it.

There is no way Vince gave him a $5 million deal in 1998. I am sure Cornette was referring to potential revenue, but that's not really the same as losing the money.

He's talking about the money they could have drawn with a Dr. Death vs Austin feud

The Miracle Violence Connection would have gotten over in the early 90's.
What a name for a tag team. |

Just watched them all, the Moolah one is really weird, spent the whole episode saying how bad she was, then in the last 2 minutes you got 6 girls saying nothing happened then a girl who spent the whole time saying how bad she was end the episode saying Moolah was great and if you say Moolah was a pimp it means she was a prostitute.

The B4A ended in Aug 1998. The Sept PPV was Austin vs Kane vs Taker for the title and a number 1 contender 3 way cage match between Shamrock vs Rock vs Mankind . You could have put Williams fresh off a B4A win into the 3 way and make it a 4 way(scrap the cage match). Have Williams win the match and face Austin at the Oct PPV Judgement Day ending in some sort of screwy finish causing the title to be held up till the tournament at SS

Then you could have Vince enter Williams in the field as his hired assassin who's only focus of to make sure Austin doesn't win the title kinda like Andre and Hogan in WM4. Maybe they both get dq'd or Austin gets DQ for using a chair
Williams faces Austin at the Dec PPV Rock Bottom and Austin wins ending the feud. Then you do the same shit they did at the 99 Rumble or whatever |

Watching it now. Is his widow basically admitting he did it? It certainly sounds like it.

Snuka's wife spent the whole episode deflecting or dancing around making any definitive statements, the ex cop looked shadier than a pawn shop cashier and Sam Fatu cheerfully accidentally drops a huge clanger that casts even greater doubt on Snuka.
Maybe the best put together episode since Brody or the Von Erichs because it effectively puts it all on a platter for you. Reading about these things makes it hard to form an accurate image, these episodes give you a good view. New Jack still the funniest though, likely always will be. |

Yeah they asked Fatu the right way so he wouldn't have his guard up on the question.

The part where the interviewer mentioned about Fatu saying he had been in the car was just perfect TV.
He guessed it just as he was saying it, then in a split second you can see sheer panic in his face. That man is a practiced liar but he didn't see that coming at all. |

It seems like interest dropped off greatly after the Benoit episode which is a shame. The few sites I frequent had hardly any comments on this one.
Dino Bravo and then Dr. D David Schultz. Fuck man. Such interesting stories. |

The Snuka story is just so fucked. Benoit did what he did, but he killed himself and would have been caught if he stayed alive. Some semblance of justice was served. Or at least the loop was closed, so to speak.
But Snuka got to just go and wrestle and do a bunch of crack until he died. No justice. |

Got one question about Vince role in this, they almost didn't talk about him except that maybe he was at the police station after. I'm not questioning if Vince would want to get involved but did he had enough money to buy murder charge in 83 ?

Snuka was arguably the hottest wrestler in the world in a feud that was the hottest feud in the history of the company next to maybe Bruno vs Larry. Vince would have emptied his pockets.
But he didn't really have to. The town made a lot of money off Vince and his wrestlers over the years. It was in both parties best interest to sweep this under the rug |
