I don't ussually start threads and don't like to but here is one that is great to talk about and interesting that I love to read about.
I wanna dive into this.
This is something that was mentioned on the thread yesterday about if you could ask Vince 3 questions and I found more out about it and now I’ve become very interested with finding out more on this topic.
Basically in 1994 Savage was upset with everything going on at the time with him in the wwf. Vince was pushing out the “has bens” of the 80’s and bringing in the new generation that was not much younger then Savage like Hart, Razor Ramon, Diesel, and there were other stars from wcw that were soon to come into the company and make an impact. Savage at this time was basically not being used the way he wanted to be. He was being made into a commentator but he felt he could still wrestle. I’ve heard that Vince McMahon let him go to wcw with open arms in 1994 because McMahon didn’t wanna pay him big money and Savage knew his days of being in the main event picture and great days in the company were numbered. Savage also had been noted after divorcing Elizabeth a year or two prior didn’t have the same determination in the ring and lost what he had going for him. Fast forward back to 94, Savage at this time in wwf was involved with a deal with slim jim who he is sometime credited for making them a larger household name by having an endorsement deal. He was making wwf a lot of money for this. When he left wwf to go to wcw he took the endorsement deal over to wcw instead of Vince making another wwf star the slim jim guy this would make money for wcw with the commercials rather then wwf. In wcw he’d get paid the big money for being a wrestler there and also be guaranteed a spot in the main event picture with the other aging stars from wwf who were already established in the 80’s who went over to wcw.
At this time Vince was on the trial of his life where he could of went to jail but that was involved more with Hulk Hogan and Hogan today or atleast recently has been on good terms with Vince McMahon. While Hogan and Savage are not best of friends just look at his personal problems over the years with Hogan thinking Hogan had cheated with his wife Elizabeth and all the times Hogan has hogged the spot light away from Savage when Savage was obvious the better man in the best moments of his career Hogan was always there trying to hog the spot light. This is why Savage might have a real life fued with Hogan to this day and thus when he has a feud with Hogan Vince has to choose sides between Hogan and Savage.
There is also a rumor on the net that Savage and Stephanie McMahon had sex when Stephanie was a young underage teenage girl. I think if this is true why wouldn’t Vince prosecute? Well I think if it was I’ve heard the side of it where it would shame the McMahon name and his daughter but really even though we all want that to be true and it would be so great for Savage to admit it or Stephanie it never has.
Savage added fuel to the fire a few years ago when he had a video on youtube where he appears to have gone completely insane for his website at the time but this is simply him firing back at Hogan and Triple H for calling him a dinosaur today. He basically is very angry and calls Hogan “you are a fuckin punk Hulk Hogan” and I feel what he says in regards to Triple H is more of a storyline promo where he’s acting like the bigger man then Triple H but who knows what he meant. He says he’ll take Triple H wife and take her around the block a few times and show her a real man is like. This set the rumors into a tizzy but I’m not sure if they had already been started to this point or this is what started it. I feel what Savage said about Stephanie he was talking about Triple H’s wife who is a grown woman and not about when she was a teenage girl. It’s not like he said Triple H I did your wife way before you hahaha. He only brought this up because I’ve heard that Triple H did an interview and called Savage a dinosouar.

Also does anybody know if Savage was close to the McMahon family. I’ve heard somewhere that he had been to the McMahon house before but I might never know this. There’s so many other questions that could be anwered and insight we can pull up and put together in this thread. So what are your ideas and thoughts behind this topic, your insight. This is now my favorite topic to read up about of all time. I had to see your opinions on it because people ussually have better insight then I do.
