The Ultimate Warrior wasn't the most reliable performer in WWE history. When the company worked with him, only one thing was guaranteed. That was, almost everything involving 'The Tasseled Tough Guy' would turn into a giant pile of sh*t.

Despite having some reservations about squaring off with the 'Poster Boy of Shady Supplements' during his early mega-push, The Undertaker agreed to do business with him, and in a big way. From there, WWE spared no expense trying to push the feud between 'The Deadman' and the 'Walking Rage Machine.'

In what appeared to be the making of a marquee grudge match, 'Taker tricked Warrior and trapped him inside of a casket during Paul Bearer's Funeral Parlor.

Would the 'Mayor of Parts Unknown' hand 'The Phenom' his receipt at Survivor Series? No.

What about This Tuesday in Texas? Absolutely not.

Due to a falling out with management, WWE didn't exactly want to give the former 'Blade Runner' the honor of facing 'The Minister of Darkness,' regardless of all the attention the program had garnered. Instead, the company dropped Warrior out of the picture and went with the tried-and-true Hulk Hogan at both pay-per-view events.
