- I'm not sure where it was (someplace in Massachusetts in any event) but
- Hellwig did do a run-in on Vince Apollo (?) as a favor to promoter Wendell
- Weatherbee. He is doing a follow-up shot vs. Hercules early in January.
- Since the name "Ultimate Warrior" is owned by McMahon, he must call himself
- "The Man Formerly Known as Ultimate Warrior". Meltzer reported that Hellwig
- will be paid $4000 for his "favor" to Weatherbee. Originally, he was asking
- $8000 for indie shots (!) but I guess he backed off since nobody in their
- right mind will pay him that much. He's not worth it.
