The Radicalz(s)

By Scott Keith on 9 May 2020

Hey Scott,

With you covering the WWF debut of The Radicalz during your RAW recap, it begged a question. So these four guys split WCW and headed up to Stamford looking for work. Did they have someone champion them to Vince? I know it was Cactus in kayfabe, but was that the case behind the scenes as well? Or was this a case of Vince salivating at finally driving that nail into the WCW coffin and was gung ho about seeing these guys just fall into his lap like that?

I don't think anyone would have needed to champion them with Jim Ross as head of talent relations. He would have known exactly what they were getting. But yeah, pretty much the moment everything went down, there would have been a million people in Vince's ear telling him to grab them immediately.
