-Brock Lesnar fought Mr Perfect on an airplane all while Ric Flair was drunk as shyt walking around with his dikk out trying to go mile high with stewardesses :dead:


-Superfly Jimmy Snuka murdered a woman and got away with it

-Owen Hart was originally supposed to be "The Game"

Also Triple H almost fell out of the plane because he was trying to stop the fight but he got rammed into the emergency exit door.

Michael POS Hayes got his ponytail taped to a bulletin board because someone cut it off while he was asleep. :mjlol:

And Goldust was singing over the intercom. I wish we had more stories about the infamous plane ride of fukkery. :laff:

I think I recall him saying in his book that Vince loaned him the money to handle that situation. Why not, Vince probably made that back easily once Austin blew up.
I forgot what podcast episode it was but I just heard Steve talk about it on there. He didn't mention the vince part but I believe it.

Mae Young had the longest in-ring career in wrestling history. Mae Young claims to have wrestled in nine separate decades, having had her first match in 1939 and her last match in 2010. Some dispute Mae’s 1939 starting date, saying she only started wrestling professionally in 1940 or ’41 (she didn’t get paid for squashing Kill ‘Em Gillem and Snodgrass in her high school gym, so those matches don’t count), but even if she didn’t start in ’39, she still wrestled professionally for at least 69 or 70 years. Mae’s only competition is Lou Thesz, who wrestled from 1932 to 1990 (58 years), so Young has the longest career record pretty solidly locked down.

Everyone here heard it but fukk it....

The most prominent story to come out of this rivalry is one from WrestleMania XIV. Obviously, that night was the dawning of “Stone Cold” Steve Austin’s reign atop the WWE. However, the Undertaker reportedly took it upon himself to make sure that Shawn Michaels did the right thing and didn’t attempt any shenanigans.

Taker supposedly threatened Michaels just before bell time, though exactly how he did depends on who you ask. One story features Taker simply threaten Shawn verbally. The other — and more interesting — story, however, claims that as Shawn was getting ready to make his entrance, the Undertaker walked up to the Gorilla position. Taker supposedly began taping his fists while staring a hole through Michaels, and then sat down at Gorilla. It wasn’t until the match was over that Taker got up and untaped his fists.

WHEN WCW BROUGHT MASTER P AND THE NO LIMIT SOLDIERS IN, THERE WERE PLANS FOR A TANK VERSUS MONSTER TRUCK MATCH, BUT WE COULDN'T AGREE ON THE FINISH BECAUSE P WANTED TO PUT ME OVER, BUT I WANTED TO PUT OVER P, BROTHER!
The No Limit Soldiers in WCW was entertaining fukkery in hindsight:mjlol:

KIDS THESE DAYS WILL NEVER UNDERSTAND HOW BAD IT HURT TO GET HIT WITH A REAL PHONE, BROTHER!
Kid today don't understand dem old school asswhoopings :sadcam: I would have took getting my haircut and posted on Worldstar like kids today over the whoopings I've gotten :mjcry:
Literally the funniest thing I've read all day...the visual :lolbron::russ:

Hogan wanting to put P over, C-Murder turning it into a real shoot fight, random Mystikal moment :laff:

Some how it all ends with NWO/No Limit whooping stings ass.
:lolbron:This is why I forever love 90s hip hop

Pettengill actually recommended Cole to the 'E for a job. He was a war correspondent and a newsman before he got hired by Vince.
:francis:So it was Pettengill responsile for unleashing the Maggle virus upon WWF/WWE

Steve Blackman was meant to debut in 1989 but he got malaria on a tour of South Africa and was bedridden for two years

:ohhh:I always heard both Jindrak and Batista were supposed to be Evolution members and the crew originally supposed to be 5 members along with HHH, Orton and Flair?

in 1993 WWE had a wrestler named David Sierra that went by "Cuban Terrorist" and he only wrestled when WWE was in Florida

WWE went from almost going bankrupt to making a profit n 1997 simply by changing the price of In Your House PPVs, and making them 10 more dollars than they were before.

Almost a third of the people who performed at at WM 7 are now dead

WCW tried to turn nWo into it's own promotion. That's why they ran the Souled Out PPVs and did the WCW takeover of Nitro episode to see if it could work. Both experiments failed.

Curt Hennig came up with Raven's "Flock" gimmick

The decision for Savage to win the World title at WM 4 was last minute. Originally Ted Dibiase was scheduled to win it up until a week before the show

WCW had audio PPVs online as early as 1999

A TV station in LA announced Bret Hart beat Ric Flair for the WWE title, two days before he actually won the match

Tyson Kidd and Harry Smith had their first match in the WWE on October 5, 1996 at a house show in Canada. Kidd was 16, Harry Smith was 10
