I remember hearing a story about a new wrestler taking Taker's chair in the back. And when taker told him it was his chair the new wrestler told him to find a new one. I heard the wrestler was let go not long afterwards. Has anyone heard this story?

These stories always have the effect of making me think Undertaker is a huge baby.

If a near 7 foot tall, 300 pound man who dresses like a zombie told me to do something, I would sure as hell do it.

I don't get the not shaking hands part. You hear that from everybody in the business: you go in to a new locker room, you introduce yourselves, shake people's hands in an incredibly light way, and you move on. Figured if a mark like me heard that before, people like O'Haire would too.

Figured if a mark like me heard that before, people like O'Haire would too. Apparently not long after coming to the WWF, O'Haire (and Palumbo too?) didn't introduce himself or talk to Droz when he visited a RAW/Smackdown taping because (a) he didn't really know him, and (b) he was being flanked by other wrestlers for like the whole show. The O'Haire/Palumbo team was immediately split up as a team - O'Haire basically vanished until returning in late 2002 with a great gimmick that they gave up on fairly quick. It's sad to say "a lot of wrestlers act like petty little silly-ninnies," but sadly a lot of wrestlers DO act like petty little silly-ninnies. |

For reasons like this, I will always applaud the Warrior, "I shook your hand yesterday. Why do you want another handshake today? Begone"

I seem to remember that as one of the reasons Shawn Michaels got fired in the 80s.... |
