www.youtube.com/watch?v=P9_mzvNrmXcInteresting to see. A nice bonus as Andre grabs the microphone after the match. He speaks English rather clearly for someone who is from France. Well...at least he didn't need a "translator."

An Older guy putting over a young guy like that looks so out of place these days... Andre's a class act

Specially since he hated Warrior. I've heard that's why a lot of their matches were squashes. The less time Andre had to be out there with Warrior, the happier he was. |

the video reminds me of that "laws of wrestling" thing on youtube, where the warrior says "you cant show me a match where i ran in. clotheslined and pinned a guy"

In don't understand how this match was even possible. It is common knowlege that Andre did the day after WM3 and he wighed 900lb. That means he was a zombie

That means he was a zombie I came up witht he conclusion that Ted DiBiase is so wealthy that he can even bring back the dead. Plus, he was planning on killing Donald Trump when Hogan would use the zombified Andre to knock the Trump Plaza into the ocean. But of course Virgil ruined that. |

It's kinda sad to see him at that point. Even walking looked so painful.

I understand why it was done. Warrior was gonna be Vince's new Hulk. In order for people to believe he was a main eventer, you have him go over one of the biggest legends ever in Andre. Andre was on his last legs (literally) at the time, so it didn't matter to him as long as he made money. I really think Andre's run with the tag belts with Haku was a thank you for everything he did. |

Well, as it's been said before, I believe it did matter to Andre, just in the opposite way you'd think. He hated working with Warrior and the quicker the match the better Andre liked it. I believe it was said on the Warrior DVD as well, that Warrior had no idea what Andre was doing for him with those squash wins. |

I believe it was said on the Warrior DVD as well, that Warrior had no idea what Andre was doing for him with those squash wins. Other than SDOUW, it has never been alluded to Warrior and Andre having heat. Warrior has NEVER bad-mouthed the Giant, and has graciously acknowledged what Andre did for his career in written interviews and I believe his own shoot interview. Warrior, like everyone else, respected the fact that Andre did what he wanted, and if he didn't like you, chances are you wouldn't work against him, or at least be put over by him. See Macho Man Randy Savage. On a side-note, Warrior did try to do the honourable thing and put over the hot-rising newcomer, when he allowed himself to be stuffed in the casket by Undertaker. This is when Taker really started getting heel heat. Paul Bearer acknowledges this on his website. |
