That video is also a good reminder of how great Heenan was as a heel manager as well. I started watching around the MTV/WWF partnership, so right around Orndorff's run with the WWF.
Paul's arm was in bad shape. He needed surgery at the beginning of that feud. So they probably milked it for all they could.
I kinda remember hearing that now, but he did the feud because he knew financially it would be worth it. Was he done with the WWF after that run with Hogan? Did he come back? I remember him in WCW after.
He tore his bicep during the feud. Never know when another big money run is coming or ever will come. He came back in 88 I believe and crowd cheered him. So turned face and feuded with Heenan and Rude. Think he retired in 90. But came back to Smokey Mountain Wrestling then eventually WCW in 92/93. Somewhere in there. Then he was mostly training the new guys because u could see the nerve damage in his arm from postponing the surgery.
Cornette mentioned him on a recent podcast, when a video of him was going viral concerning his health/dementia issues, but talked a little about his time in Smokey Mountain.
They should bring in the New Day eventually to feud with Reign's Tribe. Friends the Family u chose vs The Family u have no choice to accept.
He's already said he is who he is and who he is got him there so he doesn't foresee changing if he got somewhere bigger.
Nah, Rollins vs Edge, and Cena vs Roman.
I don't think they are getting Lesnar, at least not right now.
Well they are supposedly making this SummerSlam a Mania type go for broke. Drew deserves so much better than Jindhal. Nobody wants to see him.
Keith Lee didn't look so hot in the match. Several clunky spots. Botchberg gives Lash another nice win though
Vince doesn't like Lee. That's it. I wouldn't expect a positive push for Lee anytime soon. Lee, Lashley, and MVP would make a good Hurt Business 2.0.
Or Lashley, MVP.......................and Xavier Woods when he turns on Big E and Kofi.
