Does Hogan still spend a significant minority of his time in a tanning salon, or has he just gone that colour permanently now?

Still thinking about Vickys heat, its pretty amazing… got me thinking who/what has had the most insane nuclear heat in wwe? Shawn trolling Canada with Brett entrance? Angle making GBS threads on MSG before Tazz debut? "for one night, i've decided to be your champion" … glorious!

It was even better because it wasn't until he opened his mouth and started wiping his face that the crowd realized what was going on. I seem to remember a few shots of kids crying in the video.

Has Paul Heyman ever actually wrestled? He's been a manager for so long, just curious if he had a special attraction tag match or something like Heenan used to do.

He had a Tuxedo Match against Jim Cornette at the legendary GAB 89. also I know Lawler told a story on the WWE Legends roundtable show about how Paul E. was supposed to be part of a scaffold match they'd built up in Memphis, but the night of the show he said he couldn't go out there. At some point, either then or in another match later down the line, Lawler legitimately decked Heyman and broke his nose/jaw (I don't remember the fine details, it's been awhile since I've seen it). But he admits to doing it on purpose because of the scaffold stunt. I'm sure there's probably more, as well.

The popular picture of a lanky kid with a fro scowling came from this segment... I think the majority of people caught on before Punk started talking. I think the announcers were mentioning it before he even got in the ring.

When WWE made the decision to combine the World Titles into the Undisputed Title, how come they didn't wait until Wrestlemania X-8 to do so? I don't know if there was ever any stated explanation, it just seems like it'd be a big thing and somebody probably would have suggested doing it at Mania.

There were plans to do an actual Brand Split for a while before the belts were ever unified, so I think it was kind of an assumed thing that the Unified title wouldn't stay very Unified for long.

Edge and Christian opened with a promo about how Dallas sucked so much that if JFK hadn't been assassinated he would have committed suicide just to get out of the goddamn town. I remember being  when it happened, it's akin to going to New York and saying how clear and open the sky looks now those goddamn towers are finally out of the way.

It would have made it tougher to tell the story of "Triple H's triumphant return and pursuit of the title." because either Hunter would have won the WHC or WWE title before Mania, or his Royal Rumble win would have been weaker because there are 3 other guys going for the Undisputed Title (re-book Vengeance for Mania). Nowadays winning the Rumble doesn't mean a whole lot, but that then it was extremely important. Also the story for the unification match was McMahon vs. Flair, with a poo poo ton of interference, so Triple H's return would have been put on the back burner.

Cena's not getting divorced. He's like...the most awesome guy in the world. It's all lies He was interviewed on Howard Stern and said he loved loving groupies, and he hosed a fat chick after the Raw roster put him up to it. e: Here's the link. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6txXQES0AOM Buff Tannen fucked around with this message at 14:46 on May 11, 2012 |

This is a dumb question, but I'm listening to some Peter Gabriel and I had this memory of Claudio using an instrumental version of Sledgehammer (or something similar) as his entrance theme for a little indie I used to go to. Did he use this theme everywhere?

Except in Chikara, where he formed the BDK and used Rammstein's "Engel."

Homicide did it at Glory By Honor 3 in 2004 and it didn't go so well. He told the crowd he wished they died on 9-11. Granted that was the three year anniversary... It was funny to me though!
