Loss Posted July 27, 2011 Author Report Share Posted July 27, 2011 Famous interview. Warrior is doing a promo and ooze starts falling down his face. I don't care what anyone says, this stuff is awesome. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shoe Posted August 27, 2011 Report Share Posted August 27, 2011 Now that was cool. I think he should have collapsed though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BackToBionic Posted January 5, 2012 Report Share Posted January 5, 2012 Remember watching this as a kid and thought it was pretty cool. I wondered how it work but never second-guessed why he was wearing a jacket. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kevin Ridge Posted August 30, 2012 Report Share Posted August 30, 2012 Fantastic stuff. I love Warriors' reaction where he just screams "Warriors" and walks off looking at his hand. Think one would completely freak out with what just happened to him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WingedEagle Posted April 15, 2013 Report Share Posted April 15, 2013 Warrior doesn’t look much taller than Gene. here Warrior's promo about Shango & his voodoo is interrupted when his head starts oozing and he walks off. Pretty memorable. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PeteF3 Posted July 28, 2013 Report Share Posted July 28, 2013 "Look, he's still got that stuff all over his face--oh no, wait, that's paint." HA! Warrior wears a ring jacket for the first time in his life. Convenient. Warrior would be an ideal victim for a guy like Shango considering he's a guy who would CLEARLY believe any sort of magical hoo-hah Shango would try to offer up. Warrior is on a verbal roll when the black ooze starts streaming down his face. Obvious set-up aside that's an incredibly effective visual and this is the kind of thing I can get behind in the right setting, so long as I don't have to watch the matches.

MikeCampbell Posted August 27, 2013 Report Share Posted August 27, 2013 The usual goofy promo from Warrior, only this time he starts "bleeding" some sort of black liquid. Much cooler than the vomiting. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
garretta Posted February 5, 2016 Report Share Posted February 5, 2016 I don't think this was cool at all. They made a seemingly insignifcant mistake that wrecked the whole thing. Go back and watch the segment and focus on Warrior's face. What color is his paint outlined in? That's right, black. What color is the supposed ooze? You got it, black. Also, if you look in his hairline, you can tell he has extra paint up there. Something had to be used as the ooze, of course, but it wouldn't have stood out quite so much if they hadn't already outlined Warrior's facepaint in black. If his paint for this segment had been done in green and yellow, or red and blue, or any other color except blue with black trim, the ooze would have been scary and inexplicable. As it is, no matter how Vince and Curt spin things, anyone with two eyes and a working brain could say, "Oh, for God's sake, it's just his cheap paint melting under the lights. What a bunch of crap." The only thing that would have made it worse was if the ooze had been blue. Also, for all the trouble they went to putting him in a white jacket, they didn't use it visually. The ooze would have looked just as gross if he hadn't worn it. They didn't even show the ooze dripping onto it, which I thought was the whole point. Warrior didn't seem frightened as he walked off, just perplexed. Strangely enough, it works. It's been established that he doesn't believe in Shango's curse, so what else could be making these things happen? (The vomiting could be explained by a bad burrito, but what on earth can make a man's head rain black ooze?) Nice touch that he calls on his Warriors, most of whom are likely scared out of their wits by this point, to help him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dawho5 Posted April 24, 2020 Report Share Posted April 24, 2020 I think the jacket was also tied to the deal where they mentioned the catalog earlier. Gotta show off that merch. I enjoyed how Gene felt the need to translate Warrior's gibberish at one point. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
