yeah I remember Rikishi & Haku feuding with Kane & Taker...then nothing. I reckon its because Rikishi got injured and basically missed the rest of 2001. W/out Rikishi they had nothing for Haku to do though I would have loved for him to be a staple in the hardcore division for a while.

Oh yeah I forgot about Rikishi's injury. A shame that they couldn't find something else for Haku to do.

Not sure if that's true though. The guy agreed to a buyout of his huge AOL contract and they repay him by firing him just a few days later.

Haku was probably the best part of the Rumble.
I remember telling my dad that Meng was going to show up at the Rumble and him telling me he wouldn't because he's in WCW. I was so excited when he made his return. I was a big Meng fan (and still am).
