Did You Know......Ultimate Warrior/WCW

Did You Know...................

That whilst in WCW, Eric Bischoff was wanting to sign The Ultimate Warrior to a 3 year contract with WCW. The only thing that was stopping him was the fact that the money Warrior was wanting was apparently "ridiculous".

Oh yeah... I remember this. He was asking something like six figures an appearance, and he couldn't do ANY of the things that helped him draw due to Vince owning so many aspects of the character. He wasn't allowed to run to the ring, he wasn't allowed to shake the ropes, he wasn't allowed to run the ropes... he basically wasn't allowed to even ACT like the ULTIMATE Warrior, and he still wanted an obscene amount of money - and this is WCW's Eric Bischoff talking...
