I don’t think the angle got real death threats, but the point I’ve seen made in previous SCG Radios, was that this was the poor taste stuff that gave the media the taste for blood. If Vince is going to go that low for attention, he cannot complain about the attention he gets. To this day, while things in the Attidude era didn’t help, these sorts of scandal might be the catalyst behind wrestling struggling to find much respect.

That and it’s stinkin’ fake fightin’ for babies.

When it comes to Warrior, I think the piece of shit he was makes it likely he wasn’t very equipped to be the top guy, but sometimes I wonder if the WWF/E dragging their toes causes a guy’s issues. Rob Van Dam got busted for weed in 2006 and some were like “See! The WWF were right not to push him in 2001!”
