As most of us know by now, the Road Warriors had a clause in their contracts that stated that the WWF/E couldn't put them in a storyline or gimmick that portrayed them in a poor light, this is how they got outta that storyline with Hawk being a drunk. this sounds like the one of the single greatest clauses in history! How did they get that one in, and nobody else hasn't? imagine not having to join the Kiss my ass club, or some of the other godawful things vince and his writers have put wrestlers through Thoughts?

I think they either snuck one by Vince, or Vince had worse lawyers back then than he does now.

If I was gonna wrestle for Double Double E I would want just like, character control. They can choose when I win and lose, whatever, just want control over my character and promos...

You would probably choose to not get called by WWE, either. I'm guessing the mentality around there is it's either their way or the highway when it comes to character development.

So, LOD 2000 wasn't a crappy idea that portrayed them in a negative light?
