that's pretty confusing man....
If your talking about her reduced role on TV after the Mega Powers angle? Elizabeth hated being on TV. It was a contstant strain on her marriage to Savage. One of the reasons her marriage to Savage collapsed was that she explicitly stated she wanted no part on the Flair vs Savage angle leading into WM8. But Randy involved her anyway.
She had a change of heart in WCW because she was getting paid an INCREDIBLE amount of cash to be in the minor role she was in.

I don't think she had any role with the WWF other than performer. I think that was just a made up answer for the interview. She came back on screen from time to time after WM7 and was involved in the feud with Jake the Snake and Ric Flair. I think both Jake and the Genius have said that the Jake feud caused problems with Randy and Liz's family (apparently Savage and Liz did not smarten them up to the business, that it was all a show and that Jake didn't actually slap Liz). I did not know that she didn't want to be apart of the Ric Flair feud. By the summer of 1992 I think they separated and they didn't mention Liz in the feud with Flair again (or in WWF for that matter).

Liz's last appearance in the WWF was on the European tour post WM VIII. If I recall she came down to the ring with Savage against HBK and after that she left the company.

By the summer of 1992 I think they separated and they didn't mention Liz in the feud with Flair again (or in WWF for that matter). Yeah,Flair talked about it one time.Savage's big thing was that he had to have his matches rehearsed ahead of time, he was very OCD about it. Flair flew down to Florida to go over the WrestleMania VIII match and he said there was palpable tension between Randy and Elizabeth the whole time he was there. Then it was during the summer of 1992 . Randy ... he wasn't abusive, but his character on TV? That was him.He was VERY protective and jealous of Elizabeth. I remember Bret Hart saying the one time post WrestleMania V when Savage and Hogan had a match overseas and Liz was still Hogan's kayfabe manager that Hulk hugged her or something after the match. When he got backstage Randy was in his face and ready to fight,for real, cause he didn't like the way Hogan hugged her, with Hulk pleading to Randy that he really didn't know any other way to do it and it,of course, literally meant nothing to ither of them. It was part of the storyline. But Savage was irate..... when he was on the road, Randy expected Liz to always be at home - always. And he would call several times a day to make sure she was there. What happened was, Liz went out with Linda Hogan to a country club and met a man there. Story I heard was she left with this guy and never went home. Meanwhile Randy was incessantly calling over and over and getting no answer. Finally when he did get her she told him it was over. Bret and Flair said Macho was beyond brokenhearted, and he had been faithful to her all those years on the road. But he treated her more like a prize that he wanted total control over than a wife or partner. He loved her, no doubt - everyone said he did without a doubt, But his love was shown in a jealous,controlling way. |

Makes you wonder if the stuff he said during promos leading up the event were really a shoot towards Hogan. Either way it's some of the best build of all time. Savage was gold here.

She disappeared again right before SummerSlam and wasn’t seen again until Mania 7. |
