At the end of 1991 WWE were at a crossroads- the ring boy scandal had been closely followed by the beginning of the steroid scandal, and in the midst of all that, the company had committed a creative faux pas with their attempt to cash in on the Gulf War with the Sgt Slaughter storyline which itself had ended with yet more backstage turmoil and the departure of the Ultimate Warrior.
