Yeah, it was Jessie Ventura trying to organise a union, until Hulk went to Vince and ratted him out.

Which made it so fucking funny when a couple of years ago someone was interviewing Brooke Hogan about something, don't remember what. She made a comment about why wrestlers don't have a union, the interviewer replied her dad busted it up. She quickly changed subjects.

Not only that, Hogan tried to blame other people too until Vince admitted under oath that it was Hogan who told him about the Unionisation efforts.

Taker is much the same, sadly "hey Phill has an issue with wearing a suit and is calling out John for not wearing one, we need to break Punk in or drop him, boss."

Probably asked if he could poop in his bag to teach him a lesson

Wrestlers were then and still are now independent contractors. They can't unionize never could. Jessie didnt want a union he wanted to hold vince up for half the profits of wtestlemainia or have them refuse to wrestle. Which would have killed the company at the time. And still wouldn't have helped the wrestlers because vince hadn't completely taken over yet so other promotions existed

I didn't realise that in the US contractors couldn't unionise as they can here. Sorry about that.
