This week, Andre dines with Mr. Fuji, who offers to manage him as well. This conversation is priceless. It ends with Fuji's face being thrown in a cake. Are all the managers this stupid? You'd think they would stop trying now.

Fuji and Andre together...a closed-captioner's miracle nightmare combination. Fuji offers Andre very more money to be mean and nasty, but Andre isn't sure if he wants to be that way. Fuji bows one too many times and gets his face in a cake as the rest of the restaurant (including perpetual hanger-on Arnold Skaaland) laughs hysterically in an over-the-top Lawler/Cole way.

These segments are so predictable but fun as Fuji has a cake made especially for Andre. You know what happens. Fuji should have known better. I like Skaaland hanging in the background in these.

I would think that Fuji loved this segment, as he and Andre had worked together for many years in the ring for the WWF (and probably elsewhere too). I remember quite a few Coliseum Video matches where Fuji was one of Andre's favorite punching bags, in fact.

 

I wouldn't have minded seeing Andre and the Berzerker as a one-off team, but no one else in Fuji's stable at the time (or ever, actually) was a good fit except possibly Kamala, who Fuji managed for a while in '87 once King Curtis Iaukea left.

 

I guess Jimmy Hart's the only manager we haven't gotten to yet, although I would have liked to have seen Percy make a bid. I guess he was seen as too vital to Taker's act to be put with any other clients, even for an angle like this.
