September 14, 201213 yr comment_5514608 Boss Man makes his return and gives a great interview with Gene. This has been a nice little feud so far. Only match I saw was the Survivor Series one which wasn't that good though. Not sure what else is available.

March 7, 20169 yr comment_5731976 This may be the best Bossman promo ever for one reason: at no point does he utter the phrase "hard time" or make any cute references to law and order or police work. This is a real man promising real revenge on a real enemy, which seldom happens in the WWF. Usually promos are a tedious exercise in character reinforcement, and there's little real emotion to them. Come to think of it, this one was so real I'm surprised that Vince okayed it. The only law-and-order stuff was from Okerlund, who began the interview by saying that he believed Bossman was injured in the line of duty. Normally that would be inoffensive, but the rest of this was so real that the intro sounded kind of stupid. This doesn't have anything to do with the interview, but whose idea was it to distort Nailz' voice, and why was it done? Was it so Bossman wouldn't be able to recognize him, or did someone in the office just think that it made him sound more menacing? Talking about the kid was a bit cheesy, but Bossman needed a reason to return other than personal revenge. All WWF babyfaces must fight the good fight for the Hulkamaniacs, especially now that Hogan is gone for a while.
May 26, 20205 yr comment_5918596 Loved the promo. I am in agreement with Loss that Bossman was too good for the way he was treated. Was it because he wasn't a bit-time superstar, just a mid-level guy who could make anything work for guys on the way up? I'd figure that was a valuable thing to have.
