Loss Posted May 6, 2013 Author Report Posted May 6, 2013 I'm surprised the WWF allowed this commercial to air on their shows, with Warrior vanishing from the promotion and never being mentioned. Based on Warrior's hair, this looks to be a pretty old commercial though. I see Warrior here and can't imagine how anyone in the WWF ever thought he would appeal to people who don't like wrestling.
PeteF3 Posted June 4, 2013 Report Posted June 4, 2013 This is about as early-'90s as any commercial could possibly get.
Kevin Ridge Posted June 7, 2013 Report Posted June 7, 2013 Bad timing with him being gone over two months. He's not Savage as far as these commercials. The kids just sitting around reminded me of those anti pot commercials of young folks who smoke and just deflate on their couches.
soup23 Posted June 4, 2014 Report Posted June 4, 2014 I had forgotten that Warrior did these before Macho. Pretty over excited yelling stuff.
garretta Posted October 13, 2015 Report Posted October 13, 2015 The copyright date on this commercial was '89, so these were two years old or better. I'm not sure that Vince had veto power over which ads his sponsors used, but I have to believe that they at least gave him a heads up that the one they were choosing to use at that time featured a former employee. The only thing Warrior said that I understood was "Snap into it!", which is probably one reason why he didn't last long as a Slim Jim spokesman. The visual effects were nice enough, but I agree with Loss; how this commercial would ever appeal to anyone who wasn't a diehard wrestling fan under the age of twelve I have no idea.
dawho5 Posted January 31, 2018 Report Posted January 31, 2018 It's crazy to me that this ever aired. But awesome in a purely humorous way as well.
