IN JULY OF 1999 A NEW GROUP WAS FORMED. THAT GROUP WAS CALLED THE DEADPOOL. IT CONSISTED OF SCOTT "RAVEN" LEVY, IAN "VAMPIRO" HODGKINSON, JOSEPH "VIOLENT J" BRUCE, AND JOSEPH "SHAGGY 2 DOPE" UTSLER.
A MIX OF INTEREST, THE DEADPOOL WAS MORE ABOUT APPEASEMENT THAN WRESTLING. TO IN VOLVE RAVEN, TO GIVE VAMPIRO A PUSH, AND TO INVOLVE THE ICP, THE DEADPOOL WAS A RANDOM YET ENTERTAINING ASSORTMENT OF THE DISENCHANTED LOCKER ROOM AT THE TIME. BEHIND THE SCENES, RAVEN WAS GROWING VERY DISPLEASED WITH WCW. THE DEADPOOL GAVE HIM LITTLE PUSH AND HE WAS UNHAPPY WITH THE FUTURE OF THE GROUP AND HIS ROLE IN IT. AND BECAUSE OF THIS WCW HE LEFT THE GROUP AND THE COMPANY IN AUGEST OF 1999.
LEAVING ONLY VAMPIRO AND THE ICP. THE DEADPOOL CAME TO AN OFFICAL END TOWARDS THE END OF 1999 WHEN THE ICP LEFT WCW. AFTER RETURNING TO WCW IN JULY OF 2000 VAMPIRO AND THE ICP HOOKED BACK UP BUT THIS ALLIANCE LASTED ONLY A FEW MONTHES BECAUSE OF THE ICP'S UNHAPPINESS WITH THE WCW SCRIPT WRITERS.
ALTHOUGH THIS GROUP WAS NEVER TOGETHER LONG ENOUGH TO CAUSE ANY SERIOUS DAMAGE TO ANY ONE IN WCW WHO STEPPED IN THEIR WAY THEY ARE STILL ONE OF THE COOLEST GROUPS EVER PUT TOGETHER. THIS SITE IS DEDICATED TO THE 4 MEMBERS OF THE DEADPOOL. |
