No Respect for TNA, Shortchanged, & Outsiders Memory

ICH BIN EIN OUTSIDER

I was close to Scott Hall when we worked together in WCW. He has his demons, but I give the guy the highest marks when it comes to loyalty. Kevin Nash is the same way: Great guy, loyal, very trustworthy.

By way of proof, I was working part-time for WCW doing the 900# and magazine stories when Hall and Nash arrived in the promotion to kick off the nWo invasion. It wasn’t long before I was fired because I said something on a 900# a vice-president didn’t like.

Hall and Nash stopped cooperating with WCW’s media department. Wouldn’t do interviews, wouldn’t do anything, made everyone miserable besides. “You want this to stop? Bring Madden back.”

So WCW did…for a 200 percent raise.

It should be noted that no one has ever been better at making people miserable than Hall and Nash, especially when they’re focused. When Tom Hunt of WCW called to offer renewed employment, he said, “Look, you’ve got to come back. Your two friends are making everybody go nuts.” That gave me a pretty good starting point for negotiation.
