10 Wrestling Matches That Led To Wrestlers Being Fired
8. The Ultimate Warrior Gets The Boot After SummerSlam 1991
By all accounts, The Ultimate Warrior wasn't what you'd class as the easiest wrestler to work with over the course of his manic run as part of the wrestling world.
Never was this more evident than during the period which saw the vibrantly-attired ball of charismatic fury hold Vinnie Mac to ransom coming into the 1991 SummerSlam event, stating that he wouldn't leave his home until the boss agreed to the terms on a new deal - one that would see him pocket a cool $550,000 for performing at 'Mania VII.
McMahon played ball coming into his blockbuster summer spectacular, only to regain control of the situation by emphatically pulling the rug out from under the star's feet after his match which saw him team with 'Mania VI sparring partner Hulk Hogan. Parting ways with the demanding talent shortly after his appearance at SummerSlam, Warrior wouldn't be seen again on WWE television until WrestleMania VIII. Though he would once again depart from Vinnie Mac's empire before 1992 had reached its end after a failed drug test.
