He already did, by getting Sting to publicly associate with his old rapist rear end.

Every wrestling shoot interview I've seen him on seems to indicate he hates every wrestler who has ever been a decent human being. Just a horrible ghoul of a man. He's always either been a greasy sleazy prick or a grumpy rear end in a top hat except when he's crying which is also frequent.

Jim Cornette was right. Tony Kahn is too much of a fanboy to be an effective leader. He needs to learn to pull his gun more often.

The only thing Terra Ryzing is his heart rhythm. He shouldn't have played "the game."

Did anyone ever watch the WWE branded Triple H documentary or whatever? He totally banged some old executive dudes at Turner to get his first WCW job, didn't he? If you've seen it, you know what I mean...

Which is fine. Those guys probably deserved to get hosed in the rear end by the King of Kings.

I don't know why, but for some reason I always remember Steve briefly beating on his foot in that scene, mainly because it seems jarringly out of place. Everything else is comedy slapstick with Attitude toilet humor at the end (not shown in that video: Steve gives Vince an enema to conclude his attack), but Steve beating on an injury just seems kind of...petty. Steve Austin might have been the Rattlesnake DTA no mercy guy, but his character generally just kicked your rear end all around; he didn't focus on a specific pain point to be cruel. Or maybe I'm overthinking it.

Yes, hence Austin wasn't doing him any actual harm. But in terms of the overall story of it...it's one of those things that catches in my mind, like sand in a shoe.

If that's the one where Foley is on Vader's back and Vader basically falls backwards, smashing Foley between the ramp and himself, according to Mick, he was supposedly trying to commit insurance fraud there, by getting intentionally injured so he could retire from wrestling and get a large payout (he was in a bad mental place at the time). He did it assuming there was NO WAY that the 400 pound Leon White could do such a thing and he wouldn't suffer SOME form of injury that he could use for his claim...except as he said in his book, his body had seemingly gotten so used to taking ridiculous impacts, that it managed to take THAT as well, without any overt injury.

Oh, it and many others are now taking their toll NOW, but that's 30 years down the line.

Yeah, that was the one with that bump. The entire match was just a parade of absolutely sick bumps. I don't think he took a Nestea plunge in that one, but that's the regular Mick bump that always gets me the worst. It's not the tallest or most visually impressive bump, but it definitely looks like the most painful
