York Foundation The York Foundation was a professional wrestling heel stable in that worked in World Championship Wrestling between 1990 and 1992 . The stable was led by businesswoman Alexandra York with each member of the stable adopting business suits & attitudes after joining the stable . History . Miss Alexandra York entered WCW near the end of 1990 as the manager / Financial analyst of Mike Rotunda . According to the storyline Rotunda had inherited a lot of money , turned heel and then adopted the name “ Michael Wallstreet ” ( a gimmick patterned after Gordon Gekko from the film " Wall Street " ) . Miss York would use her laptop to analyze Wallstreet ’ s opponents and help him win matches . Wallstreet started off strong by defeating The Starblazer at before engaging in a feud with Terry Taylor . Miss York claimed that her computer program predicted that Wallstreet could beat Taylor in less than 9 minutes , so during their Starrcade 1990 match a 9 minute countdown clock was used . Wallstreet won the match within the time limit . In early 1991 , Rotundo left WCW and signed with the World Wrestling Federation where he became a “ ruthless tax collector ” known as Irwin R . Schyster . With no one to manage Miss York started to scout WCW , looking for her next “ project ” . At Miss York found her man . During a match between Terry Taylor and Ricky Morton Miss York appeared at ringside , distracted Morton and allowed Taylor to win the match . Taylor ’ s turn did not come as any surprise as he was mistakenly introduced as “ the Computerized Man of the 90s ” before the match . Taylor joined the York Foundation and insisted on being known as Terrence Taylor from now on and started wearing a business suit . Miss York also added Mr . Hughes as a bodyguard . Next Miss York set her sights on Dustin Rhodes ( later her real - life husband ) wanting him to join her foundation . When Dustin Rhodes turned her down , Taylor attacked him , kicking off a long - running feud between Rhodes and the York Foundation . In April and May , she had Taylor team with Arn Anderson and Larry Zbyszko as potential recruits but they decided to form a tag team called the Enforcers instead of joining the York Foundation . She also gave " Nature Boy " Buddy Landel a few tryouts but did not sign him as he lost these matches . At on June 14 , 1991 , the York Foundation Ricky Morton - now renamed Richard Morton - joined in an attack on Dustin Rhodes and also beat up his longtime Rock ' N ' Roll Express partner Robert Gibson just as he announced he was ready to return from a serious knee injury . In July , Richard Morton defeated Gibson at the Great American Bash 1991 . Gibson left WCW shortly after allowing Morton to focus on the York Foundation ’ s feud with Dustin Rhodes & friends . At the Great American Bash , the Foundation lost the services of Mr . Hughes as he joined forces with Harley Race and Lex Luger , instead Miss York brought in Thomas Rich to be the third member of her foundation . Over the summer the foundation would continue their feud with Dustin Rhodes , Tom Zenk and Bobby Eaton all of whom had turned down Miss York ’ s offer of membership . The Foundation beat Dustin Rhodes , Tom Zenk and Big Josh for the WCW World Six - Man Tag Team Titles on October 8 , 1991 and held the titles until they were abandoned in late November 1991 . As fall turned to winter the members of the York Foundation were used more as “ Enhancement Talent ” to make wrestlers such as Van Hammer or Big Josh . The sole highlight was Richard Morton ’ s participation in the tournament to crown the first ever WCW Light Heavyweight Championship where he reached the finals before losing to Flyin ’ Brian . The York Foundation ’ s final feud was with The Fabulous Freebirds that was cut short when the Foundation disbanded in January 1992 .
