Vince Sends Letter To Ex-wrestlers (wwe/f)

[Flickn]

Below is the entire letter in its original form. All sections of the
letter that were released to the public remain. Parts that were edited
out are added back in, and are in parenthesis:


Over the last ten years, (Nancy Grace claims that) an inordinate
number of wrestlers have passed away. (Only five worked for WWE at the
time of their deaths and two of the deaths were accidents.) Some of
the (remaining) deaths (a mere three mind you,) may in part have been
caused by drugs and alcohol. (Or maybe not. I'm not a Doctor.)

In an effort to prevent such tragedies (and congressional
investigations) in the future, the WWE is willing to pay for drug and/
or alcohol rehabilitation at a certified treatment chosen by WWE for
any performer with a prior WWE booking contract who may need this
service. (I can't believe I'm writing this, but it's true.) The WWE
will pay for this service in full. (God, that's painful to type.)

There is no cost to you or your family. (Look, if anyone wants to chip
in that's cool. You were an independent contractor, for God's sake.)
Help will be provided regardless of the circumstances of your
departure from the WWF (Jim Hellwig, Nailz, Sean Stasiak), or the
amount of time you performed for the WWE. (Outback Jack, Big Bully
Busick, Sean Stasiak.)

If you do not have a drug and/or alcohol problem (the business has
changed a lot - its not like it used to be), but know you know a
former WWE performer who does (ie: Hulk Hogan), we are asking you to
try to help them by encouraging them to take advantage of (my current
situation and) this opportunity.

Liz Difabio has been appointed as a representative in this matter.
(She's that hot chic that works on the 4th floor. You know, the one
who got F'd up on spiked egg nog at the Christmas Party and gave Balls
Mahoney a lap dance under the mistletoe while he was dressed in his
old Xanta Claus gimmick?). Liz has been with the company for over 24
years. (Wait - did I say she was hot? I was thinking about her back in
the day. She did look good in 85/86. I nailed her. Her, Aretha
Franklin, Carlito's sister, and all of your Moms. One of you is
probably my illegitimate kid, you bastard. Anyway, 24 years blah blah
blah) and has been directly involved with (my grapefruits and) the
majority of WWE performers who have received treatment for substance
abuse (blah blah blah). She understands emotions (blah blah weepy
blah) that individuals and family members (blah blah blah) go through
in this process. Any conversation you have with Liz will remain
confidential and will not be released to the public (directly. It will
however, be intentionally leaked to the Congressional Committee
investigating us in a meager attempt to garner even an ounce of
goodwill.)

In many instances, an individual in need of help is in denial and will
not want rehabilitation (Or so they say. I wouldn't know because
there's never been anything wrong with me). There are professional
intervention companies that will help persuade that person that they
need treatment (like that one show on A and E. Ever see that? They
turn your intervention into an episode of a reality show. There's an
idea, huh? If you want to do that call me directly. Maybe we can make
a buck or two off your mess of a life). Liz will be able to facilitate
such interventions should they be necessary. (She promises a happy
ending. Wink, wink.) An intervention and treatment will be at the cost
of WWE exclusively. (Dammit!)

This service is being provided for performers with a prior WWE booking
contract only. (WCW guys, you're screwed.) No family or friends. (F***
them, too.) Please reach out to Liz if you think you might have a drug
or alcohol problem or if you know someone who does (Unless they are a
family member, friend, or somebody working for TNA). We all need to do
anything we can to help prevent another tragedy (as it turns out to be
really bad for PR).

Sincerely,

Vincent K. McMahon
Chairman, World Wrestling Entertainment

I am really not too sure what to make of that really. Does not sound like the type of Memo that VKM would actually want published. His use of words is terrible and rather insulting at points. If he is trying to offer this service, then great for him, its about fuckin time.

Does anyone know what he means by this
"Help will be provided regardless of the circumstances of your
departure from the WWF (Jim Hellwig, Nailz, Sean Stasiak)"

Nailz was one of my favs at the time he was around, but I never knew what happened to him.
