Taker beat the fuck out of him and a guy like DDP because they came in and had ideas for their matches and Taker didn't like that.

Chris Kanyon was amazing, I loved him as Mortis.

 

[Chris]

didnt he beat up a dude for being gay and then that guy killed himself

he stiffed Kanyon, I was never sure if it had anything to do with his sexuality tho but he did end up killing himself a few years later but he had a lot of personal problems too

 

[Barry Poppins]

Straight up, Taker bullied the shit out of DDP.

fairf

 

[Chris]

I think Kanyon blamed WWE for mistreating him bc he was gay but there wasn't any real evidence there

 

[King me daddio]

kanyon was tossed off the triple cage in WCW and nobody cares.

 

[Chris]

I also don't think it was even known he was gay until after he left

 

[King me daddio]

i haven't actually seen it since it happened but i remember it being worse than foley's falls

 

[King me daddio]

could be nostalgia on my part

 

[Chris]

The kanyon thing was bad bc it was the same arena Owen Hart died in a year earlier

 

[King me daddio]

oh shit

 

[Barry Poppins]

Supposedly the story went when DDP was supposed to have the match with Taker, he came up to him and had a list of ideas for the match, written on paper. Taker thought DDP was fucking disrespecting him because of it (it wasn't true, he did that because he was under Jake Roberts and Randy Savage who also did the same). So Taker nixed anything that DDP presented and basically forced Vince to make it a Squash match

 

[King me daddio]

I don't think that arena exists anymore.

 

[Chris]

I don't believe he was actually hurt tho, it was a crash pad but he was kayfabe hurt anyway after, did hospital segments
