Well, we got Eddy Guerrero and now
we’re eliminating The LWO. We’ll dispose of them one by one, if need be. Why?
Cause they’re wearing our logo. We wouldn’t have a problem with them if they
came up with their own logo, but they just tried to do a Latin ripoff of the most powerful
organization in professional wrestling. Ain’t happening.
Next matter of business: this so-called Tag Team
Tournament. It also, ain’t happening. Scott and I aren’t gonna allow there to be
a Tag Team Tournament because, in our eyes, we are the Tag Champs. We’re the reason
tag wrestling was abolished in the first-place, because no one could beat us. To Fit
Finlay and Dave Taylor: suck on a stun-stick. Lizmark, Jr., and Super Calo also needed a
little shock in their lives, so we gave it to them too Thursday on Thunder. Hey, if you
noticed, we’re a non-discriminational punking organization. We punk everybody.
Why does everyone want to know about Konnan? I’ve
already covered him on this Website.
The Giant wants another shot at me, sure. Maybe he’s
forgotten, he has never beaten me and I’m the guy who dropped him on his head the
last time we faced off and almost ended his career. I can’t believe he’s stupid
enough to try to beat me again. He’s a big guy, but he’s young and he’s
dumb. I’m the best big-man in the business; there’s no doubt about it. Maybe in
five years he can beat me, but not right now. Do check us out Monday on Nitro from my old
college stomping grounds: Knoxville, Tenn., home of the college football National
Champions.
Last Monday was a great rating, especially with the Fiesta
Bowl on. Combined, wrestling did close to an 11 rating. It’s the most viewership ever
on a Monday night. Even though we came in second, the bottom line is, more people watched
professional wrestling than ever before.
Fans, I know, are wondering about the "other" nWo
members, like Curt Hennig, Brian Adams, Vincent, etc., well, they’re in till
they’re out.
I will be in the building, or as we say, in da house, at
Souled Out.
Scott Hall vs. Goldberg will be the main event at Souled Out,
in a Stun Gun Match; the first one to retrieve the stun-gun can use it. It’s a
gimmick match, and if anyone watched Scott compete in the WWF, they know that one of the
best things he does is, Gimmick Matches. His Ladder Matches are some of the best matches
in the history of the business. Gimmick Matches are one of his fortes. Goldberg, the
green-horn, had success in wrestling matches, but this is his first Gimmick Match;
he’s clearly at a disadvantage. Plus, Scott’s familiar with the stun-stick.
I’m looking forward to seeing Norman Smiley’s
career develop in WCW. I think he’s got a lot of possibilities.
Why am I back with Hogan? Well, I never was not with him. We
might have been at-odds, but we never fought. The situation is, until Hulk Hogan
completely retires from professional wrestling, he’s The Man, the entity that runs
professional wrestling. Austin, in some people’s minds, is The Man, and I agree that
Steve Austin is incredibly popular; I love his work; I love his interviews; I love his
character. But, if you go to Greenland and ask who Steve Austin is, they may not know. But
they will know who Hulk Hogan is. Hogan is like Ali; he’s a pure icon. Hulk Hogan can
make your life in this business very easy, if you’re on his team. His money and his
power can make your life a whole lot easier. You can either jump aboard his express, earn
a ton of money and live an easy life, or try to fight him like I did for almost a year and
not be used, not be on TV. Shoot, I would just come down to the ring and
yell,’Wolfpac in Da House,’ and that’s it; I wasn’t in any major
angles; I wasn’t on three or four consecutive pay-per-views. You’re not gonna
beat him. You’re not gonna beat him politically. You’re just not gonna be able
to function in a company when he’s on top, unless you’re on his team. It’s
a business decision and it’s the right decision. Everyone at home can say, ‘I
don’t like him,’ but think of it like this: if you’re in jail and
life’s easier if you keep your mouth shut and don’t bother anybody, you’re
gonna keep your mouth shut and not bother anybody. If you’re in the Army and life
goes by easier if your boots are shined, then your boots will be shined. Ya gotta do what
it takes to make life easier, and this makes my life a helluva lot easier.
Some of you may know this, yes, I am on a committee coming up
with ideas for WCW TV shows. I’m part of the think-tank. I’m part of the
creative team. I have creative input. I’m not booking because Eric still has final
control, final say over anything that goes on TV. Last Tuesday and Wednesday, I was in
Atlanta. We were planning 7 hours of TV (three hours of Nitro, four of Thunder) and that
was one of the most mentally-tiring things I have ever done in my life.
THIS IS MY FINAL THOUGHT ... AND I DON’T KNOW WHERE THE
HELL I’M GOING WITH THIS: How is that the President was voted in by the nation, but
when it’s time to impeach, we don’t get to vote. I think there should be a
referendum, voted on by the American people, and WE should get the chance to say whether
or not we want him as President, not a bunch of people who have hidden agendas. We put him
in, it should be our prerogative to throw him out. My vote: he stays.
Peace Out, Kevin
