Have you ever thought of kayfabe reason of why the Ultimate Warrior ditch his tag team partner Randy Savage for Survivor Series 1992. We see them on Saturday Night Main Event teaming up getting along just fine against Money Inc., than at the end of the broadcast you hear Heenan rumors of the Ultimate Maniacs breaking up. What happened?
I have a kayfabe explanation, and it something that was establish at Wrestlemania 7. The Warrior is a very flaky person that hears voices, and listening for a sign every minute from his gods. He almost walked out on his match at Wrestlemania 7, I am thinking backstage his voices told him to leave the WWF and go to his fortress of soltitute. Probably the same for his 1991 depatrute or any of his depatures really when you think about it.
Imagine backstage the Warrior saying "Sorry Randy, but my gods are telling me I have to go."

I was 9 then. Even by then I just accepted sometimes Warrior just up and disappeared.

JR joked on the documentary that Warrior wasn’t hitting the gym with such devotion back then...

He heard rumors that he'd soon be jobbing to a returning Arn Anderson so he left town.

I don't think their was a storyline explanation.
What was even stranger was in 1996, Warrior got suspended for failing to make a number of live appearances. Before Raw, Gorilla opened with the suspension announcement and real life explanation. Then Raw showed a taped match between Warrior and Owen Hart.

He was tired of Savage's grandstanding and hotdogging.

If there was a kayfabe explanation, I'm sure that it would be that it would be that he got called away on some sort of spiritual journey and came back four years later being all about "destrucity" now.

They didn't do the injury explanation which would be very easy and self explanatory, they were jumped by Razer and Flair on SNME, and could have said injury was worst than they thought, but they were going to replace him with Perfect, would have been too ackward for Savage to ask someone who was a part of that beat down that "injured" his partner to be his tag team partner.

His orthodontist appointment to get braces on his teeth was coming up and he was too self-conscious to show himself in public wearing them.
You know, kinda like Marcia Brady.

I get letting him go especially during the steroid investigation, but couldn't they have fired him after Survivor Series?
It was only a matter of weeks.
