cawthon777 Posted August 23, 2004 Report Posted August 23, 2004 Kerry wasn't suicidal. The only reason he did what he did later on (2 and a half years later on, for the record) was because he was depressed and drugs were involved. According to Kevin - who thought he had talked Kerry out of doing it hours earlier - Kerry wasn't going to jail. Jail time wasn't why he shot himself. He was just down. I seem to remember Kevin saying in an interview that going to jail would've been perfect for Kerry. No everyday worries, no responsibilities and all the time in the world to work out. He violated the probation he was on so he probably would've gone to jail. I don't think anyone, Kevin included, can claim to know why Kerry took his life. Those statements came from Kevin's RF shoot so you may be right.
Guest Staravenger Posted August 23, 2004 Report Posted August 23, 2004 I miss being a mark. I think we all do, at times. Ditto. At least as a mark I don't care about workrate. Wrestlemania is the only time I morph back into mark mode.

Lt. Al Giardello Posted August 23, 2004 Report Posted August 23, 2004 I have a video of the match where he lost the IC title back to Mr. Perfect. It was on a Colussum Video.
Si82 Posted August 23, 2004 Report Posted August 23, 2004 I have a video of the match where he lost the IC title back to Mr. Perfect. It was on a Colussum Video. Was is on "Fan Favourites"?
cawthon777 Posted August 23, 2004 Report Posted August 23, 2004 The two Fan Favorite tapes came out in 89 and 92 respectively. I think the finish is included on Greatest Champions (91), which may be the tape you're referring to. I don't know of it being on any others. They had a match on one of the Supertape videos but it's from Toronto; not the title change. Some of the other matches on the tape included: Savage vs. Andre from MSG Harts vs. Power and Glory Perfect vs. Bulldog And a whole bunch of clipped footage
landy1987 Posted August 23, 2004 Report Posted August 23, 2004 the match was shown in full on the Greatest Hits Coliseum video (released in 91 I think) I cant remember the other matches but they are probably on prowrestlinghistory.com somewhere

Jericholic82 Posted August 28, 2004 Report Posted August 28, 2004 Kerry only lost the belt 3 days before the PPV. It's not that big of a deal and it's a leap to compare it to the Worldwide tapings where things would be taped to air two months down the road. Vince takes the belt off Kerry because he's suicidal ... eh. Let's say that is the reason. He still has to deal with the problem of one of his big stars killing themselves. I don't think the media would really care if Kerry was a guy who lost the belt 2 weeks ago or a guy with a belt. It's big news regardless. Kerry wasn't suicidal. The only reason he did what he did later on (2 and a half years later on, for the record) was because he was depressed and drugs were involved. According to Kevin - who thought he had talked Kerry out of doing it hours earlier - Kerry wasn't going to jail. Jail time wasn't why he shot himself. He was just down. I feel bad for the lot of them. They - both the dead and the living - have had very hard lives. I wasnt saying it as fact I was just quoting something I read online I agree it still would be bad
