I can't believe I actually still (have the horrible displeasure) remember this... but I was watching Arsenio Hall back around 1990... and The Honky Tonk Man (along with the "Mouth of the South") came out and somehow convinced Arsenio to let them perform live on his show... and proceeded to make complete jack-asses out of themselves. God, it was so terrible and gross... I wanted crawl under the concrete in my drive way... and I wasn't even at fault for it. Yeah... it was that bad. :(
Listen to the Warriors response from the crowd when his music came on, PURE ENERGY and POP. Honky didnt have a chance. Warrior was my best wrestler back in the day because he had so much strength , energy and had a crazy charachter. You will never see another Ultimate Warrior, especially in todays 'WWE'. Nowadays he totally is the opposite.
Vinny Mac needs to find a good heel gimmick like this put the belt on him and give him a long title run. It builds an audience and a following. Back to basics, fellas.
I was in the building for this. I was 9 years old at the time. I caught a piece of Warrior's shoulder as he charged out to the ring. Guy felt like granite or something. I'll never forget this one.
Honky Tonk Man's post match interview was brilliant "I said I'll anybody but I didn't say I'll wrestle the warrior....but they sent the warrior out there"
It's sad personal politics will keep Warrior from the "Hall of Fame". If you grew up when I grew up, you know what I'm talking about. He was as popular, if not more popular than Hogan.
@frythedeliveryguy : Well he ALMOST got in last year but he chose not to because Vince was on that OTHER stuff. They offered it to him and when he tried to get back in contact with Vince to except the nomination, Vince kept giving him the run around. So Warrior was like 'screw this'. Then he thought about it and said, "Why would a company that would produce that horrid 'Self Destruction Of The Ultimate Warrior' DVD and then want to put him in their HOF anyway?" He has a good point.
@drdoom718 I remember that match.....he was supposed to wrestle Brutus Beefcake, but Beefcake was injured and he made the big mistake of saying on the mic "get me someone to wrestle, I don't care who it is!".....30 seconds later, he lost the Intercontinental Championship

Oddly enough though... Jimmy Hart is a GREAT musician.
He does a mean rendition of nirvana.
DDP's theme and Raven's theme in WCW were done by Jimmy Hart
