I am sure Vince was the one who made Hogan pass off to warrior and had him use the warrior nation gimick. The funny thing is in the early days Warrior was Sting's tag partner (which is where both of them got the warpaint from) but Sting is SOOOO much better in interviews. basically warrior has 1 move and the Gorilla press slam is about as great as Hogan's big leg drop (It isn't and I love Hogan).

Macho Man will NEVER have anything to do with WWE again. Vince swears everytime his name is mentioned. He hit on Stephanie MacMahon when she was underage and Vince never forgave him.
As for Warrior's return, who cares. Hogan tried passing the torch but he couldn't keep it going for a year before Hogan was back on top. He's always been a sh*tty wrestler who copied Hogan. The only thing he had going for him was an awesome ring entrance.
it takes a lot more to Gorilla press a 300lbs. man then it does a leg drop"Time to nut up or shut up"-Tallahassee

Little Warriors (Hulkamaniacs).....shake the ropes (shake your head and point finger)......exact same finish every single match (exact same finish every single match )......
Let's see him Gorilla Press Andre...or body slam him. Warrior was a "flash in the pan" in my opinion. Hogan made wrestling.Check out my website: Megozine Covers - HomeComment

Listen, wrestling is like figure skating. You either enjoy it or you don't.
No one complains about Brian Boitano doing a triple toe loop during every performance or whatever it is he does... because that's his routine. It's part of his act.
EVERY wrestler has their routine. Heck part of the fun and waiting for it. Waiting for the signal to the finishers.
Hogan's shaking, then shaking his head no, followed by a few punches, leg drop and cover.
Any wrestler can be taken apart like that...
Shawn Michaels and foe lay on the floor, Michaels does his little jump up, gets in the corner, stomps his foot, then kicks the foe in the chin.
Warrior shakes ropes, gets stomped on, walks around shaking looking crazy, some shoulder tackles, gorilla slam, Warrior splash, cover.
RIc Flair goes to the top rope only to get body slammed, gets thrown into corner flips over the corner to the outside, walks the apron, and gets clotheslined...
I could go on and on... but my point is if your arguement against the Warrior is the same finish or even the same MATCH everytime... that's an argument that can be made against EVERYBODY.
Now, I think Hogan did what no one else could... make wrestling mainstream and marketable towards kids. He should totally get credit for that. But as much as I mark out for him even today, the man cannot wrestle. He's a great Sports Entertainer, not a great wrestler. But so is the Warrior.~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Here is my Warrior story.
In the 80's I had a friend fly back to michigan to hang out with the old gang. We indulged in some underage drinking before taking him back to the airport. At the airport I have to release a fearsome beer-pee and hit the restroom. Whilst relieving myself a gigantic man comes in and goes to the urinal directly next to me. Empty bathroom and this guy picks the next damn urinal! Anyhow, he's huge, I'm 6'1 and have been since high school and the guy is taller than me. He was wearing a levi's jacket with feathers painted across the back and his forearms are so big the sleeves have been cut so he can roll them up. He had big frosted rock 'n roll hair. And is carrying one of those sweet metal briefcases. So he comes in, kind of nods at me and does his business while I finish the longest pee ever. I finish and go out to my waiting friends and crack the joke "Dude, I just ****ed next to the Ultimate Warrior, we all laughed and they said they saw the guy and though the same thing. Huge guy leaves, again politely nods and heads of down the concourse. We laughed it up (after he was well gone...). We leave to head to my buddies gate and around the corner comes Bobby Heenan, The Hart Foundation and Macho Man (and some other guys I forget)...All carrying the same metal briefcase. It WAS the Ultimate Warrior!! We were all stunned and quietly trailed them to their gate and peeked at them from safety and argued about going for autographs but we were drunk and cowardly. There must have been a wrestling event in Detroit that night.
The interesting thing was that the Warrior sat well apart from the other guys at the gate. They all sat together and he was as far as he could get away from them. This was right when he was getting over BIG TIME, so I have always wondered if there was real friction between him and the "old timers".
Anyhow... Thats my Ultimate Warrior story.Comment
