Many wrestlers have said that Paul Orndorff was a legit badass. Vader was no doubt tough as he showed in some of his matches over his career. you never hear about any backstage fights or outside the arena involving Vader. The stories of Paul Orndorff fighting have been confirmed by many wrestlers and he noted as one of the strongest from his era. I believe Paul Orndorff s story before he passed. Yes he had injuries that severely changed his body but a true fighter never gives up or back down from anyone. Vader was retired and he should be humble and admit he got his as s handed to him.

Vader might’ve felt it was a big mistake to jump ship at the time but honestly would Eric have kept his word ?

Wtf?? Those that really loved wrestling in the 90's KNEW Vader EARNED that money. Jealous ass Flair. Vader was so fucking believable man. He damn well deserved what he was making

Not when you hear about other Turner contracts - Nash & Hall famously got 'Favored Nation' clauses in their contracts, so no one that came into the organization after them could make more than them, they would receive a salary increase. INSANE
