Loss Posted January 10, 2013 Author Report Share Posted January 10, 2013 Andre the Giant! Between 1990 and 1991 WWF stints, I guess he dropped by the UWF during this time. Andre thought UWF meant U Want to Fight? Clever. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PeteF3 Posted January 23, 2013 Report Share Posted January 23, 2013 As I understand it, Andre basically asked Vince to go back on the road and said/threatened that he'd go work for Herb Abrams if he didn't. Wrestling was the only life that Andre really knew. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
soup23 Posted January 28, 2013 Report Share Posted January 28, 2013 This was a legit surprise I didn't expect. Andre looked fairly spry here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kevin Ridge Posted February 11, 2013 Report Share Posted February 11, 2013 Albano calls Andre the 12th Wonder of the World. The background music at the beginning was annoying. Andre asks Albano what UWF stands for. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
garretta Posted March 3, 2015 Report Share Posted March 3, 2015 Andre looked and sounded about as good as he possibly could here. You could tell that he was thrilled to be back in the business and with his fans. I don't know how Abrams would have used him if he'd stayed, since he couldn't work anymore and never was all that great a talker, but for one-time pops, you can't beat him. This Albano segment was so much better than the last one because of the live crowd. Lou was as fired up as Andre was, and we got a little bit of the old Capper, which is always a good thing and something that was lacking during his final days with Vince. I hope we see more segments of the Corner done in front of a live crowd. It's way early, but Andre's line about UWF standing for "U Want to Fight?" is a contender for October's line of the month. Who knew he had it in him? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
drew wardlaw Posted May 26, 2016 Report Share Posted May 26, 2016 Didn't know this happened. Andre looks slightly out of context in such a small arena, but I absolutely did not know this was coming. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dawho5 Posted July 3, 2017 Report Share Posted July 3, 2017 Definitely a fun segment, Lou and Andre were both having a great time with it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
