[1990-04-28-WWF-Saturday Night's Main Event] Interview: Ultimate Warrior

[Loss]

Talk about it here.

[Loss]

Jibberish about grains of sand, hourglasses, present and future destinies and being chosen. I wish a giant cane would come from the side of the screen and yank this guy off camera.

[PeteF3]

Warrior goes on...and on...and on, occasionally even bothering to refer to the actual match he has scheduled.

[soup23]

Big contrast to Hogans first post mania appearance as this was just nonsense.

[Kevin Ridge]

Okerlund's face pretty much sums up this interview of what the hell is Warrior talking about.

[Cox]

There is a lot to dislike about WWE scripting their guys, but it's too bad they never scripted Warrior. There might have a lick of sense in his promos.

[garretta]

I think they did script him, Cox. No way could he make up and remember all this bullshit on his own, especially for a network broadcast where everyone else was supposedly more tightly scripted than usual.

 

If he was scripted, I'd like to meet the poor sap who did it. I want to shake his hand and ask him how he learned to think on such a higher plane than the rest of us mere normals!

[Laney]

This promo makes no damn sense. Worth watching to see Okerlund looking completely confused as to what Warrior is saying.

[drew wardlaw]

Wow like Chad said, compare Hogan and Warrior post mania here. This is really interesting actually. Right off the bat it seems like they've made the wrong decision going with him as the guy. Ehh that's easy for to say though with 25 years of hindsight.

[GSR]

With Mean Gene is the new WWF Heavyweight champion, the Ultimate Warrior. At Wrestlemania he lived up to the ‘Ultimate Challenge’, but now he faces a challenge of a different kind with his first televised title defence against Haku. More nonsense from the Warrior but he feels like he has been chosen to lead his Warriors into the darkness without fear and chosen to carry the sacred banner of the World Wrestling Federation. He tells Haku and Heenan that they faced a much different Warrior than they have faced in the past, even different from yesterday!
