OK...Time to post the REAL STORY (tm) about The Ultimate Warrior.
 
Floks, I hate to break the bad news to you, but the Ultimate Warrior is not 
a real person. He is an experimental android created by Dr. George Zahorian 
to compete as a professional wrestler. Unfortunately, Vince McMahon decided 
to screw around with Zahorian's programming of the UW-1, which is why he 
left the WWF -- he needed to be reprogrammed. So, in order to test the 
program, they ran a beta test in WCW, where the UW-1 wrestled as Van Hammer. 
Again, Jim Herd screwed with his programming, and he disappeared again. 

About this time, Zahorian designed a new android, the UW-2. He delivered the 
plans to a dear friend, Steve DiSalvo, who assembled the droid for the WWF 
in Spring of 1992. He was fully functional in time for Wrestlemania VIII, 
but since Zahorian could not find the bodily schematics for the UW-1, 
DiSalvo had to design the UW-2's body from scratch (explaining the change in 
UW's body). Again, Vince McMahon tried to change UW-2's program, so the 
robot is back as Van Hammer in WCW.
 
Rumor has it that a wildcat UW-3 android is popping up at WWF shows.

Subject: Stromer vote / Merry Christmas!!!
Date: 17 Dec 92 10:17:22 -0400
Organization: Dalhousie University, Halifax, Nova Scotia, Canada

One more reminder about the Phil Stromer vote. I've read a lot of opinions
on the net and people saying their "yes" and "no"'s. If anyone wants
their vote counted, they MUST E-MAIL me. I will not sort through posts
and see if the poster has voted yet or not and count him/her. 

The question if you missed it: Should Phil Stromer be allowed to post
to RSPW? Yes or No?

I will E-mail the results off in mid-January (about a week after I get back
from the holidays) to make sure everyone's news servers (some are real
slow) have had a chance to get the post about it and reply.

As far as my views on whether or not we have the RIGHT to censor anyone,
they're based on the fact that Usenet is NOT FREE. The Postmaster at
Infoserve has decided this is the way he wants to handle Phil. If the
majority of RSPW doesn't want to read Phil's posts, then Infoserve doesn't
want to pay to send them out. Usenet does have certain guidelines to follow
and anyone that isn't aware of them should look them up.

The reason for the last paragraph is I'm tired of sorting through debates
of Phil's rights. This is Rec.Sport.Pro-Wrestling. Whether anyone likes
it or not, the Stromer vote will settle everything.

I'm going home tomorrow for Christmas break. I hope everyone has an
enjoyable holiday season and I'll look forward to returning to talk
about WRESTLING again in the New Year.

Please don't.

This is why we have an 'Expires:' field in news headers.  You post
the FAQ once during the month, insert an 'Expires:' field into
your post with a date and time corresponding to your next scheduled
posting of the document, and you expand the usefulness of the
document at least a hundredfold.

Note: This applies to you too, Chris.  It's amazing that several
people have posted this document on a pseudo-consistent basis for
over 14 months now and none of them have figured this out.  I would
have to believe that all of them are capable of performing such a
task on their systems, too.

It's also amazing that none of these people seem aware that
news.answers exists, either.  I did inform Chris of this newsgroup
and its purpose last year, even giving him an e-mail address to
contact for information.  Guess he didn't consider it that important.
Oh well.

No one can argue Phil's inaliable right to post to this, or any,
group.  However, if he infringes on other people's rights while
exercising his own, then it should be looked into whether or not he
should be banned.  For instance:  Are any of you parents with kids who
are big wrestling fans?  Would you want them reading Phil's posts?  I
know I wouldn't.  FYI, I have no children.  I am, however, working on
my M. Math, and...  oh wait, that's another flame... :)
My point is that if Phil's posts make it so _anyone_ no longer reads
r.s.p-w, then we have to consider banning him.  If no one is offended,
to the point of staying away,
let him post to his heart's content.

Just my thoughts on the matter...

Rick, a friend of mine worked for London Publishing, which owned the PWI

their stories.

Well, Lawler has always been the king, but the idea of a king in the WWF, 
especially with the pompous air Lawler has adopted, seems somewhat inane. 

And the original poster said that no WWF mewcomer has a weird gimmick. All I 
did was disprove that theory.

As not all references to doctoral degrees are veiled references to USENET, 
not all uses of the phrase above are Gorilla Monsoon quotes.  It is quite 
common.  Give Lou Reed's "New York" album a listen sometime (the song about 
the last great American whale).

However, all references to weasel suits do pertain to professional 
wrestling rather than to well-dressed varmints.

Yes, Terry Taylor was the Red Rooster. Taylor has gone through a lot of

years ago back in the old UWF days.

Speaking of UWF, I was watching some old tapes and there was a young jobber who
was called Scott Saunders. He looks like a very young Scott Steiner. Does

Perhaps Tanabe-san or someone can help me out here...whatever became of
the WWF Ladies Tag Team titles after the Jumping Bomb Angels (forgive my
ignorance of their names, but all they were ever called was "Jumping Bomb
Angel #1 and #2" defeated The Glamour Girls at the first Royal Rumble?
Did they defend the belts in Japan?  Did they ever lose the belts, and
are they still floating around out there somewhere?
