Eric Bischoff, as WCW Vice President, fired Steve Austin (then 'Stunning' Steve Austin) in 1995 because he didn't see star potential. This firing became legendary as Austin went to WWE, became 'Stone Cold' and helped WWE win the Monday Night Wars against WCW. Bischoff later joined WWE in 2002 as GM of Raw. Hogan, Flair, and Nash were WCW stars but didn't fire Austin.

The Montreal Screwjob (MSJ) was the controversial 1997 Survivor Series main event where referee Earl Hebner reportedly called for the bell early, screwing Bret Hart out of the WWE Championship. Hebner was allegedly instructed by Vince McMahon to end the match prematurely because Hart was leaving for WCW and refused to lose in Canada. Theodore Long, Mike Chioda, and Vince were not the referee.

'To be the man, you have to beat the man' is the famous catchphrase of Ric Flair, one of the most legendary wrestlers in history. He used this phrase throughout his career to establish his dominance.
