the quote that caught my eye was
"Sidebar for my personal thoughts: Nelson was less an active participant, and more a deliberate observer, standing on the sidelines while Mullin and Robert Rowell engaged in their blood feud — even as he knew he was the only guy who might be able to bring the two sides back together again. I’ve heard from folks close to Nelson that he was very upset Mullin didn’t side with him during Nelson’s post-WE BELIEVE holdout — which Nelson eventually lost to Rowell — and I think Nelson’s silence during the Mullin-Rowell fight was his form of payback."
