EL DANDY~! Posted October 8, 2002 Report Posted October 8, 2002 "RIP, Katie Vick -- ??? - 1992 Tonight came the moment that so many of us have been waiting for since 1992, but thought would never happen -- The WWE's public acknowledgement of the Katie Vick tragedy from 10 years ago. Katie may have been a mystery to most of us, and in fact no one even knew her birthday, but she was still a person, and that bastard Kane stole her from our lives a decade ago and we didn't even get a 10-bell salute on Prime Time Wrestling back then. I first met Katie at a bar in Alabama in 1988, as she was just getting out of a relationship with Jimmy Snuka, and told me about her dreams of becoming a professional ringrat someday. I knew that if anyone could do it, it was Katie. Unfortunately, Snuka didn't take the breakup too well, and I next ran into Katie while working as a candy-striper in the intensive-care unit of a hospital in Washington, as she was suffering from head trauma. Katie recovered and moved on with her life, and I next saw her on the arm of ex-football star OJ Simpson while at a Hollywood premiere in 1991. That relationship failed to even last a week, as she befriended a waiter and was found brutally stabbed to near-death with a butcher knife and then hit in the head with an autographed OJ Simpson football. Incredibly, she pulled through and called me from a pay phone in Indiana to let me know that she had hooked up with Randy Savage. This phase of her life ended abruptly as well, as Savage would lock her in closets for days at a time to prevent other wrestlers from looking at her, and she dumped him for Sid Vicious. However, this also ended badly, as the serious of mishaps had left Katie looking like a cross between Brian Pillman and Arn Anderson, and she was found in an alleyway beaten to a pulp by a squeegee, with a pair of scissors sticking out of her back. Katie, ever a survivor, pulled through one more time and was in negotiations to tell her life story to CBS for $4 million, when a routine visit to a wrestling show in Imoud, PA, ended in tragedy, as a young Kane mistook her for a sound technician and fired lightning bolts at her, and then sealed her in a casket and lit it on fire. There was no trapdoor, and Katie Vick was declared dead by Dr. Death Steve Williams on October 7, 1992. She was survived only by her brother Scott, who did a 10-springboard dropkick salute at an indy show the next night as his way of paying tribute. RIP, Katie, you were a true friend."

Guest AndrewTS Posted October 8, 2002 Report Posted October 8, 2002 I TOLD you all she was Sick Boy's sister! I TOOOOOLD YOU!
Guest razazteca Posted October 8, 2002 Report Posted October 8, 2002 what about her ring rat days in Memphis working for the then Jerry Lawler promotion USWA?
Guest RickyChosyu Posted October 9, 2002 Report Posted October 9, 2002 This is Vince's idea of "new, interesting storylines" I take it? Can things get any worse?
Guest papacita Posted October 9, 2002 Report Posted October 9, 2002 I'd mark out if Sick Boy showed up on Raw next week looking for revenge... Actually, no I wouldn't.
Guest snowfan Posted October 9, 2002 Report Posted October 9, 2002 'There was no trapdoor' classic.... I wonder if WWE has "hidden footage" like the rebirth of UT...
Guest Cataclysm911 Posted October 9, 2002 Report Posted October 9, 2002 This is the best http://www.dragonlair.org/phpBB2/viewtopic.php?t=7478 "King of the Internet" actually tries to defend this storyline by saying "Atleast there's some interest in the fued, no matter how cliche and cheesy it may be." There's interest in a lot of things.. don't mean they are good, nor do we have to like them.
