RichInKC:
LOL...good point.
Glen: All
my points are good.......Just kidding....
RichInKC:
So...feel like talking about your departure from WCW?
Glen: Sure,specifically
what do you want to know
RichInKC:
OK, you had just gotten Uncle Guido's leg hold mastered and seemed ready
to move up in WCW...one night at Nitro...apparently there was a disagreement.
Rumors are rampant...what happened?
Glen: Mgmt
wanted me to wrestle Jacqueline on a pay per view. Now here I am, just
starting to heat up my leg hold angle, or so I thought, and then I'm told
that my gimmick has gone as far as it could go on the card- meaning first
or second match- and that my dancing was not believable. Well, I look
at that as like we need some goofball whose not over, his gimmicks no
good, and since HE'S not believable lets let him wrestle a girl. How much
sense does that make? A 225 lb. guy against a 125 lb. girl.
RichInKC:
So...was it management or someone in particular? If you don't want to
say, I understand...
Glen: I
was just looking out for my future since I only had 4 months left on my
deal, I told them I couldn't do it and then I was told I was in breach
of contract for not doing what I was told by Eric.
RichInKC:
Interesting. The rumor mill was naming Kevin Sullivan.
Glen: It
might have been. Hell, he never did anything with me while I was there.
It's funny, too, because Kevin is such a funny and entertaining guy who
was pretty cool company. But from a business standpoint he never really
did anything for me. And honestly, I don't have any hard feelings about
the situation.
I look
forward to being in this business for a long time so these four months
are going to be forgotten in the long run. I'm just glad I got out when
I did. But I do appreciate Eric giving me my first shot and giving me
an opportunity to make a name in this sport
