  5. What If - Ricky "The Dragon" Steamboat stays with the WWF post 1991?

    In January 1991 former Intercontinental Champion Ricky "The Dragon" Steamboat was brought back to the WWF. Aside for a casual reference by Gorilla Monsoon to "Ricky Steamboat", for all intents and purposes he was essentially a new character. Dressed like a literal dragon and breathing fire...

  6. 2001 - The Fate of Eric Bischoff

    Preface: This is a sequel of sorts that I did in March 2001 to PW Torch's Chris Zavisa, who did a hilarious fictional piece called "Billionaire Ted's Indecent Proposal", published in early 1996 in the Pro Wrestling Torch Newsletter. Pictures are added for this posting. It was past 2:00 am in...

  8. Owen Hart's WWF Run: 1999 and beyond

    Yes and no. From 1994 onward Owen probably made the same roughly as Davey. Owen (under his pre-1996 non guaranteed deal) would have been given main-event money in 1994, while as a tag-team champion in 1995 would have seen his earnings go down. Davey was a tag wrestler for much of 1995 (and not...

  10. Owen Hart's WWF Run: 1999 and beyond

    Two reasons: 1) Vince allowed Davey Boy out of his contract in exchange for Smith paying the WWF a $150K fee. Owen was not given that option. 2) Vince felt Owen was more valuable than Davey Boy for a number of reasons. One - Owen was a better worker than Davey Boy. In some respects he had a...

  11. Owen Hart's WWF Run: 1999 and beyond

    Owen was briefly in WCW at the start of 1991, then rejoined the WWF on November 12th, 1991. If it was the standard two or three year deal he would have likely re-upped around Survivor Series 93 (the start of his big push) or Survivor Series 94. This would lead to another two or three year deal...

  12. Owen Hart's WWF Run: 1999 and beyond

    In 1996 everything changed following the defections of Scott Hall and Kevin Nash. The WWF did an about-face and began signing wrestlers to guarantees and in the case of Bulldog, longer deals. Marc Merro was the first to get a downside guarantee (ironically even with Nash and Hall still in the...

  13. Owen Hart's WWF Run: 1999 and beyond

    I doubt it. The only ten year WWF deal that I am aware of is the one that Hogan was under, which expired in 1994. In 1996 the WWF began to get a lot of their talent to commit to new deals that had guaranteed contracts. HHH got one, Davey Boy Smith did as well. Both however had deals that were...

  14. Is it true WWE exaggerate height and weight.

    Of course. Undertaker and Kevin Love (6' 10") Now granted, Undertaker is in his early 50s and would potentially be slightly shorter than he was in the 190s Andre the Giant and Kareem Abdul Jabbar (7'2") Hulk Hogan and Karl Malone (6' 9")

  15. Owen Hart's WWF Run: 1999 and beyond

    This scenario begins with the premise that Owen Hart's harness works and that he faces Charles Wright at Over the Edge as planned: Over the Edge 1999: Owen Hart wins the Intercontinential title RAW after Over the Edge: Owen abandons The Blue Blazer gimmick and says he only used it to get the...
