Not surprisingly, Vader's star fell dramatically and after getting beaten up by Paul Orndorff he decided to split from WCW and have a mediocre run in the WWF.

Vader certainly had very good matches in the WWF, with Owen Hart and Shawn Michaels most notably. Indeed he was legitimately pushed as the companies top heel for a while against Shawn but the old magic really was just gone. Vader was never really able to recover from Hogan's politicking and he gradually faded into the background during the Attitude Era."



Hogan truely is a douche!

I still remember that fucker no-selling a powerbomb from Vader right before a PPV. Asshole Hogan jumps right up, and does the patented "YOU!" complete with finger pointing, just to let everyone know that he was all angry like!

Completely killed any hope for a legitimate feud between the two.


pretty much.
