Other documents released due to Ultimate Warrior and Vince McMahon’s working relationship deteriorating around SummerSlam 1991 were the letters they sent to each other when negotiating.

Warrior a month prior to the event threatened to no-show the big-time PPV which he was scheduled to team with Hulk Hogan vs. Col. Mustafa, General Adnan and Sgt. Slaughter in the main event, unless he was compensated for payoffs he believed McMahon owed him, more time off and as stated by Warrior ‘I want the same pay cut as Hulk gets on all Pay- Per-Views, SNME, FRIDAY PRIMETIME, house shows and proof as such.’

Fearing his main event was in jeopardy, McMahon wrote him back three days later giving in to all OF Warrior’s demands, writing ‘I regret the turmoil you’ve put yourself through and your agonizing over what you feel is fair compensation.'

But as soon as SummerSlam was over McMahon suspended Warrior, becoming too sick and tired with Warrior’s growing ego. He wrote Warrior a new letter stating ‘Unfortunately, it now appears the fame that you have obtained through the efforts of Titan has gone to your head. Frankly, you have become impossible to work with, and have completely forgotten your obligations to Titan and WWF fans, both ethically, professionally, and contractually’ as well as ‘You have become a legend in your own mind; you are certainly not entitled to vent your feelings by breaching and threatening to breach your Contract.’
