Today's New Question:
Who said the following? "I had dared to confront Vince McMahon with a brazen request for more money. With this one move, my long-term prospects for a lengthy future with the WWF had been undermined. The months ahead were sure to be more uncertain than ever. With a simple request for payoffs that refleted my contribution to the company, I was branded a potential troublemaker. The message was clear: talent, professionalism, dependability, and loyalty alone were not valued qualities for which one could expect to be rewarded without dependence and blind faith added to the mix. I knew it was just a matter of time before I was gone."
(a) Sean Mooney
(b) Gary Michael Capetta
(c) Tony Schiavone
(d) Jim Ross
(e) Todd Pettengill
(f) Howard Finkle
Answers to previous questions (in bold)
(1) Fifteen years ago, in a December 1991 "Torch Talk" interview with Wade Keller, Bill Eadie, who wrestled as Demolition Axe and Masked Superstar, said the following: "He does stuff that nobody else can do.

But I saw something in the kid that he was willing to give you 190 percent, not just 100 percent. He doesn't ask a lot, just to get an opportunity. He caught on. It only took him a couple of appearances." Who was he talking about?
(a) Owen Hart (b) 1-2-3 Kid
(c) Scott Steiner
