Cokeboy offered Warrior a $750k contract in December 1997

[hazardous]

Vince always seemed to have a soft spot for Warrior.

But his 1996 run was pretty forgettable, and he would've stood out even more for the wrong reasons in 1997.

He bodied Triple H in like 10 seconds

I want to know why Warrior didn't accept it, He wasn't doing shyt

 

[boriquaking]

Has anyone tried calling the phone number?

This was December 1997 heading into 1998 which is even more bizarre

He double crossed one of his most faithful workers(Bret) only to bring back a guy that held him up for money before a show and then just vanished on him when he returned years later?

 

[Love Sosa]

Took that money and gave it to Iron Mike to change the game up forever

Buried his finish too, LOL

Hunter wanted to work a longer match and Warrior was like nah I'm burying your finish and squashing you.

One of the best investments he ever made...

I can't imagine Warrior being around during this era, he would've been so out of place.

warrior gave him that ruthless aggression

Warrior was a bigger draw than Bret. Vince will bring anyone back (except Mach) if he thinks they can make him money. Plus I'm sure there was some desperation at this point and maybe some motivation to keep Warrior away from WCW as well.

Would have had Jawn answering the Open Warrior Challenge instead and passing the torch to the next neon meathead at the end of that contract.

We'd prob be watching wcw nitro every Monday still if warrior signed this

 

[Big Jo]

I get it, late 90s Warrior has not aged well and with the gift of hindsight the Attitude Era/ DX/ Stone Cold/ Tyson stuff was clearly more of a formula for success

That said, Warrior was a big draws in the 90s, bigger than those guys on paper and throwing $750k at him made sense at the time, at least to some extent

 

[Tommy Fits]

Its I blessing he didn't sign but i really can't see how he would have fit in late 97 early 98 WWF
