Dying days of the territory era when promoters would swap talent. Free Birds would have come in for a couple of shows then go back south. Ironically Maple Leaf Wrestling would be the first spot McMahon took over to build his monopoly.
They did one week in WWF at the Brantford tapings. Vince wanted to break them up and have Gordy feud with Hogan. They disagreed and left for memphis and quit. Hayes said in an interview later that he didn't see the freebirds fitting in with the toys/cartoon show era of WWF. Weird that this was the lame Dok Hendrix of mid 90's WWF.
@steeltownbrown52 And I highly doubt the money was that great as Handsome Dok Hendrix either.That was Vince McMahon insulting us knowledgeable fans,like he always did best.
Those guys were drinking buddy's of my daddy lol

Vince should have promised them the world to keep them in the area. It would have been worth it.

@kevo1296 Brantford as in Brantford Ontario Canada? And you're right, Hayes did sell-out as Handsome Dok Hendrix in the campy New Generation Era.
