Hi Scott,
Thanks for all the mailbag stuff recently got a few quick hitters for you.
1. I know former wrestlers talk about getting chair shots, but do any ever talk about being the ones giving them? does the Rock look back now and think 11 was to many for Mick? Undertaker doesnt hold back either
2. whats with all the UFC promotion in late 97/early 98? were Shamrock and Severn under deals when they left UFC and this was part of deal the get them? did Vince ever think promoting ufc ppvs would ever be competition in the future
3. watching tony garea, brisco and patterson (guys from the late 70s/early 80s) coming out to break up brawls in the 90s makes me wonder why we dont have guys from the 90s working for HHH i mean noble and mercury were just there in the mid 2000s and never accomplished anything that the old timers did.
1. Rock definitely feels bad about it and he’s gone on the record saying so. Not sure about other guys, to be honest. It’s always just been a part of the business, and in fact there’s ways to do it without rattling the other guy’s brain like it turned into after the ECW era.
2. Vince never really considered them competition, and it was just a business deal at the time.
3. Well, HHH did hire the New Age Outlaws as agents and trainers, and Waltman is under contract doing something as well. Most of the guys who escaped the 90s are still either milking their name for indy paydays or got out of the business entirely or died, however. Doesn’t leave a lot of room for people to act as road agents, unfortunately.
