Not really, WWF brought iin Owen, Bret, Papa Shango, Randy Savage, Curt Hennig among others to USWA which had established superstars. Nothing developmental was going on in Memphiis, it was a working relationship just like the one WWF and NJPW had.
I want to give a shout out to Brian Zane of WrestlingWithWregret, he did a video on this a while ago. Yes this was definitely a test run before McMahon became an on screen character in 97/98. We only saw him as the announcer/commentator
Not really…. Weeks after the screw job, Vince tried to play it face, and he had no plan to be a heel, but the fans were boo’ing him and after 3-4 weeks of trying to be a face, they caught on that they probably had the greatest heel of all time on their hands. If anything, Million Dollar Man was the “test” for Mr McMahon, and the basic idea was what would happen if Vince was a wrestler
This guy could be a huge heel someday in the WWF, possibly the greatest. In all seriousness tho this is a very calm, cold laid back version of what was to come
Does anyone know why McMahon did an angle in an old school southern territory in 1993? As far back as 1982 he was plotting the demise of the territories.
It’s funny, when I grew up watching wwf from 1992-1997, I always saw Vince as this good guy. This is weird to see in 1993, since the character came in 1998.
lol he did, a few more in WCW, and if anybody wants to argue this, I guess ric flwirs 16 x world championships isn’t so either, and really it’s like 21,22 witch rics real number
Vince was always a heel. Always the villain authority. I fucking loved the fued between him and stone cold Steve Austin 😂😂💀 had me laughing my fucking ass off every week
This isn't a heel promo. He's delivering it differently, but in 1993, the Macho Man was the babyface; Lawler and Jarrett were heels; and he's supporting the Macho Man and dissing the heels. It's a darker-than-usual babyface promo. Promos like this CAN foreshadow a heel turn, but obviously, that didn't happen in 1993.
@@LADYSPARKLY111 I don't know why you have to get personal about this. I know that in Memphis, Jerry Lawler was the Golden Boy and that face-heel roles were often the reverse of WWF. I guess you may be right that this is a Memphis promo, but the heading identifies it as having taken place in New York.
I believe Triple H was on his second (and last) day with WCW (fun fact: Triple H only worked 2 days with WCW, it would have been hilarious if some higher ups told Paul Levesque “You’re not amount to 💩 in this business” )
@@sawtooth808some of them thought he'd never get a push again after the curtain call. And most back then probably thought he was a pompous ass like his helmsley character.

USWA Unified Heavyweight Championship. It was the WCWA and AWA World Heavyweight Championship titles. This would have been roughly September/October of 1993
@@colinconnolly892It's a title that's oddly not recognized as a World Title even though it's creation is from 2 major territories. It's considered a 2nd tier World Title And because of that we recognize Ric Flair as the all time leader in World championships and not Jerry Lawler because Jerry has twice as many world championships if you count the unified World championship as a legitimate title. This is where things get tricky. It basically is one person's opinion versus another. And "historians" have politically decided that Jerry Lawler can't be the best of all time so therefore those titles don't count. Personally I count them. This also makes Rick Rude a champion & some others that are not included on the list. The way I see it the AWA & any title comparable to the AWA or any other territory on par with the AWA is a valid world championship. That's why Hulk Hogan is actually a 13 time Champ & not a 12 time Champ imo. But those are the kind of everlasting arguments that people will have in the upper tiers of the wrestling community.
This was what 4.5+ years before the Mr. Mcmahon character in late 97, early 1998, and he has the exact same cadence.
But without his demonic high pitched tone of voice.
