Rants

Jake Roberts and Ultimate Warrior

By Scott Keith on 6 December 2022

This is a master class promo in how a heel should justify a turn.  In any event, wouldn’t the more logical booking have been:  Hogan vs Slaughter in a Desert Storm match with Sid as referee with Warrior vs Undertaker in a body bag or casket match with Jake in Warrior’s corner then Jake turns on Warrior stuffs him in the bag then Vince can fire Warrior?  It always seemed strange to have the Match Made in Hell when Warrior never had the issue with Slaughter. 

I think the feeling was that they already burned out Hogan v Slaughter and running it again would bomb.  Even more than it already had.
