Like Uncle, Like Nephew: Trump Tells Bundy "You're Fired!"

Posted: May 29th 2007 By: CMBurnham

Thomas Trump is accustomed to getting his way. It comes with the name. And when you're close personal friends with the Boss (Jerry Bostic) and the champ (UWF06 Champion Al Farat), doing whatever you want to do is just that much easier. May 25, Trump had a surprise for everyone, as he planned to show the crowd just how easy it is to throw his weight around.

Trump came down to be interviewed by Frankie Dee during her "Dirty Dish" interview segment. Dee mentioned that she had received lots of e-mails from the fans of Bundy and that those fans were hoping that he would "devour Thomas Trump like a 12-piece bucket of chicken." She then asked Trump if he would agree to a match against Bundy that evening. Trump was not terribly excited about the prospect of a match against the big Kentuckian, but then an evil glare came over his eyes and he said that he would agree to the match, but he would have a big surprise waiting for Bundy and the fans at the end of the match.

When the time for the match came, Trump strode confidently to the ring, but made way when Bundy's music hit. The fan favourite went around the ring, doing the Chicken Dance with the young fans and handing out prizes. But there came a time when the playing had to stop and Bundy entered the ring. Sadly, the match didn't go well for Bundy as Trump had him in control most of the time. There were brief spots of hope as Bundy would rally, but in the end, the former Corporate America member hit the Stock Market Crash and handed Bundy his first loss.

And then, the time for the reckoning arrived. As both men got to their feet, Trump asked Joshua Smith for the microphone and announced to the crowd that Bundy didn't have "what it takes." He then reminded them all that he had promised a surprise and delivered that surprise by quoting his famous (supposed) uncle and saying, "Bundy....YOU'RE FIRED!".

Has Bundy's career ended now before it even began? He was allowed to come out during intermission and sign autographs, but that was the last official appearance of Bundy that evening. A poll has appeared on the UWF06 website asking fans if Bundy should be rehired. But even if the results of that poll turn out in favour of Bundy, it is unclear just how much influence that will have over the management and ownership of the federation.
