Trivia / WWE Brawl for All

Go To

  • Creator Backlash: Vince Russo admitted during an interview for Dark Side of the Ring that Brawl For All was a mistake, and one he wouldn't repeat if he could do it again.
  • Star-Derailing Role:
    • Defied by Dan Severn, who realized that participating would be putting his reputation as a decorated fighter at risk, who after winning his first match dropped out stating that he had nothing left to prove.
    • Ultimately what happened to "Dr. Death" Steve Williams after he tore his hamstring during his fight against (and loss to) Bart Gunn. Thus destroying any plans for a feud with Steve Austin and he was gone from the company not too long after.
    • Bart Gunn was "rewarded" for his victory by being given nothing to do until WrestleMania XV, where he was pitted against Butterbean, who brutally knocked him out in about thirty seconds. Gunn was fired immediately afterwards, although he did find success in Japan afterwards.
  • What Could Have Been: Ken Shamrock was pinned to participate in the tournament, but respectfully declined as — being an actual UFC champion — he felt it was unfair to the other wrestlers, and that he didn't need 50 grand to fight for real when "[he makes] over $1 million to fight in something like that."
