The Thread Killer Talks Too Much: The Recaps

[sek69]

Was at least twice a year for a while, so people who were around during that time frame would have been on many transatlantic flights.

Yeah there were two UK PPVs in 2002-  Insurrection & Rebellion

There is a big change in the talent from one to the next if you look at the cards - Rebellion was in October and a lot of people had been moved on

If i remember right there was a lot of chaos at the hotel in Manchester after Rebellion as well but maybe that was a different show, they toured here so much back then

Austin and Taker couldn't have been talking about the October show when referring to the plane ride from hell, since Austin wasn't in the company at that time. They spoke about it in the context of Taker having taken some meds for the ear injury Austin had given him on the show, going to sleep on the plane, waking up to Angle and Vince wrestling, and then choking out Angle. That would indicate Vince was in fact on the plane on THE plane ride from hell. Meltzer did say he spoke with several people who were on the plane and he got conflicting testimonies right now, but in real time he had been told that Vince wasn't on the plane.

According to Thread Killer's recap the Vince/Angle stuff happened on the way TO Europe. Same tour, different plane ride.
