Why was he fired from WCW in 1995?
Dustin Runnels was fired for breaking the anti-blood policy in WCW. Dustin (Rhodes at that time) and the Blacktop Bully were scheduled to have a “King of the Road” match at Uncensored, in 1995. The match took place in the back of a truck and both wrestlers decided to blade themselves (with the encouragement of WCW booker Mike Graham to do so). All three men were fired from WCW soon after and Dustin Runnels re-signed with WWF.
