Well I guess "no PPV". Hulk Hogan threatens to sue after Twitter remarks.

I wonder what Ultimate Warrior was thinking to do such a thing? People sue. Did he not know that?

Lance Storm talks Flair, Luger and Goldberg.  He doesn't necessarily bring them down, maintains they're nice guys and such, but has some funny stories about all three.

Roddy Piper's song from the Wrestling Album, "For Everybody", with various clips.  Originally titled "F**k Everybody", WWF officials changed it to "For."

I always wondered if he did that for REAL. Like an insult or payback of sort... a lesson maybe.

Ted DiBiase the Million Dollar Man was on that show Lifestyles of the Rich and Famous many years ago...



Was he really rich or was that just a gimick? They never said how he got rich, I do know his parents were wrestlers.

I have to think that kissing Vince's ass was a punishment for those who did it. There's really no other reason for it I think.

It was a gimmick.  But from what I read, DiBiase and McMahon were very much about "Staying KayFabe", meaning they wanted to really present him as rich as that was his gimmick.  So McMahon would actually pay the extra expense to fly DiBiase First Class on every flight, rent limos, and get 4-Star Hotel Rooms.  I read he once went out with a wallet full of hundreds on a business dinner and returned the rest to McMahon back at the hotel. :buggedout:

Cross Promotion.  The WWF was popular at the time, and tv shows and movie producers were clamoring to get WWF guys on the show.  It was scripted.

And Robin Leach appeared in the WWF on some ppv's.
