Did you really believe that the Ultimate Warrior (real name: Warrior) was really returning to “actual” wrestling? HA! From the words of Mr. Warrior himself:
Hello Warriors. Those of you who have continued to follow my career going-ons know Ultimate Warrior has long been waiting for the perfect (and principled) time to unleash a ring return. Amidst the never-ending rumors and mistruths spread by others, the time to return has come and is now and it is with Acclaim! An entertainment promotion with class, pride and integrity. After many years of absence, I am thrilled to be working again with Acclaim’s talented, creative and professional staff on the new, next-level of their Legends of Wrestling: SHOWDOWN video game! Acclaim has assured me that Ultimate Warrior rises and soars and rules, shakes ropes, shatters hopes and awakens the Gods of Parts Unknown in this incredible opportunity to settle ALL SCORES, unfinished business and even new beefs!, in the ULTIMATE place to do battle — THE SHOWDOWN RING! The intensity of Ultimate Warrior lives on.
Fine, so Warrior (aka Ultimate Warrior) is a playable character in the latest Acclaim wrestling offering. Whoopee. What does this have to do with a wrestling return? And why would anyone demand a return of Ultimate Warrior (real name: Warrior)? Always Believe… My Ass.
Other than that, things have been pretty smooth these days. Nothing of note has happened that isn’t commonplace in my wacky world. It’s Halloween, but you knew that already.
(2013 Dave Says: Oh, 2003 Dave. So much of a missed opportunity.)
As you may have noticed, Tripod has shifted their stuck-on ads to the top of the page. This is getting really frustrating, but it’s something I have to deal with.
Anywhoo, not much to talk about this week. So this is just a minor blurb. Later.
