Ultimate Warrior???

Anyone who thinks the Warrior would be good for ANY wrestling promotion is insane, ignorant, or just plain uninformed. He was one of the primary causes for the WWF's demise in the early '90s. They tried to pass the torch to him because he had a gimmick that got over and he was juiced to the gills on dianabol. When WCW brought him back in 1998 the only one who they could work him with that could adequately wrestle his style was Hogan. This is why they didn't bring him in to stop Goldberg's streak as was originally rumored. He's a cancer to whatever company he works for. Even if he's over with the fans, it doesn't matter because he CANNOT WRESTLE. He was one of the first of Vince's gimmick-only performers that couldn't differentiate a wrist-lock from a padlock. TNA doesn't need any old-timers to build up it's current stable of performers. WWE did it's best business in the late nineties when they gave the ball to the younger, talented performers and built them into stars instead of doing what WCW did and signing all the bloated contracts to has-beens. We all know what happened to WCW at the beginning of the millenium. If it weren't for Spike TV's nudging, TNA wouldn't have spent money on guys like Sting and Steiner, but they feel the best thing is to feed the general public something they've already eaten before instead of selling them something fresh and new. What a pity.
