I heard they were going to do it after the Valentine angle that culminated in the dog collar match, but Piper left for New York

...and now both accounts are gone. I guess it's ridiculously easy to be certified on Twitter, something they should maybe be a bit more stringent on in the future.

It felt a little suspect as it was just parroting some of his old lines. I feel like he'd be a little more original than that.

ECW on TNN was first. But yeah, it's weird that they haven't done all of Raw and Smackdown. Well, those shows are still on the air.

AVC: Here’s a question you probably don’t get asked much: What do you remember about your match against The Ultimate Warrior? PC: [Laughs.] Oh, yeah, well, I remember that very well. He just died recently, didn’t he? AVC: Not too long ago, yes. PC: [sadly.] Yeah. Well, [my son] Simon was very happy to meet him. It’s funny, just thinking about it now, Simon was 12 or 13 when “Two Hearts” came out, or something like that. You can work that out, thinking of the dates. But he was very keen to meet The Ultimate Warrior. He was very into wrestling. And my other two sons Nicholas and Matthew went through that phase, too. We went to see the wrestlers in Geneva when they came through. We saw them a couple of times, and we got to know some of them very well. They’ve grown out of it now, though, so I don’t go around watching scantily-clad men so much anymore. [Laughs.] AVC: Well, the clip of you and the Warrior continues to float around YouTube. You put up a hell of a fight. PC: Yeah, and he was a good guy. But it hurt. [Laughs.] Those ropes, they hurt if you’re thrown against them. I mean, you’ve have to be pretty tough to do that stuff. It was a surprise just how much they hurt. Source

It's great that they've left those F-bombs intact, particularly Bobby Heenan's. When he's poking at Andre at WrestleMania VI and spits "I'm the fucking boss" is a great moment, and shows you how deep in character he got.

Was he sympathetic towards Nash?

Hate to be that guy, but it's funny that if you watch only WWE it seems everything is wrestling BUT wrestling.

I'll go back to what I said in another thread, that they should have put Slaughter on ice for awhile after WrestleMania. The war was over so they really didn't have to milk it anymore.

I didn't mean to infer by posting it that it wasn't true, but just to add to the discussion. And I actually believe if it's the same guy, he possibly worked for Vince before coming to work for Turner/Time Warner as well.

First show I ever watched was the first SNME on Fox. WrestleMania VIII was in Indianapolis and I remember there was some state-wide buzz about it. My brother was already a fan, so my curiosity was doubly piqued. We got the PPV in lieu of actually going, which I don't remember it occurring us to ask to go but I'm glad we didn't. Not that the show wasn't bad but we were 7 and 8 and probably wouldn't have stood to be too patient with watching it like that.

Were the Von Erich sons good heels? I just can't imagine Kerry delivering that type of promo.

My initial impression of Dillon as a manager was that he was a poor man's Heenan. They could have brought him in to take over Jack Tunney's role on-screen later on, instead of Gorilla Monsoon (who was okay in that role admittedly). One thing I would have done is to have taken Slaughter off TV for awhile after WM, have him come back months later and make a dramatic save and turn good again. That would have been the best way to turn him, instead of how they went about it.
