Rants

bought off wrestling commissions

By Scott Keith on 11 December 2017



Scott,

Reading through the Observers from Vince's "Do No Harm" rise in the mid 80's did anyone besides Crockett running the Clash against Mania IV ever try to use Vince's tactics against him? Vince would get Jerry Blackwell blocked for medical reasons, afoot the Illinois commission of the Kerry Von Erich situation, yet no one thought to pay off the Michigan/Indiana commissions on Andre the Giant's health before the Hogan matches in '87-88? Did they not think as underhanded as Vince, or another example of too cheap to truly fight?
As Jay Z once said…
"Pray for 'em, cause some fools just love to perform
You know the type, loud as a motorbike
But wouldn't bust a grape in a fruit fight"
