August 6, 201411 yr comment_5617440 I was just remembering that WWE wanted Britney Spears to have her head shaved on RAW in 2007, and was upset when she did it herself. That was what they wanted their work with Kevin Federline to lead to eventually. The Britney trainwreck was such an enormous tabloid draw at the time that I can't imagine the buzz that would have created.
August 6, 201411 yr comment_5617446 That WOULD have been huge. But I think that was just a pipe dream on their part, as I am almost positive by the time K-Fed was working with WWE, he was already pretty much finished with Britney Spears. She shaved her head to avoid drug testing for her custody battle, at least that is the most logical reason I have ever heard.
September 8, 201411 yr Author comment_5623457 Apologies if this was discussed at the time but I've only just seen it now. Prior to Wrestlemania 30 Michael Cole hosted a panel with Flair, Foley and JBL speaking about various Wrestlemania moments. They get onto the subject about celebrity involvement at Mania and what their favourite involvement was. Foley cites Tyson as his and summarises that Tyson helped make Austin and Michaels a special attraction and help launch Austin. Flair takes offence to this and shoots Foley down sayinf that Steve and Shawn didn't need Tyson and it was ridiculous to think that "the greatest athlete" and "the biggest star" needed Mike Tyson. JBL who seems sane enough to agree with Foley, instead starts trolling and agreeing with Flair for kicks. I'm in complete agreement with Foley. There is no way that match would have been as special if it were not for Tyson. To also ignore the impact that Tyson had in cementing Steve Austin as THE man is ignorant. Flair can really be delusional.
