The thing is, the story of the video existing was around before his book came out. He could have talked about it beforehand, though?

He could have taken that existing story or video and inserted it into his book.

I remember Cornette saying he saw a video where people had a picture of Jesus and the Rockers side by side on a wall which mirrors what Jericho said but I don’t know if he ever answered a question about it directly which is interesting. I would’ve figured that would have popped up on the podcast at some point

Strange Kentucky People is real, but there used to be a good bit of skepticism until reliably honest people like Storm and Cornette (like Wade and Bruce said recently, whatever you think of Cornette, he is far from dishonest) started talking about having seen it.

See, the thing about it being a tape trader favorite was not true. None of the traders around in that era had ever seen the video or seen it on tape lists. Whether Jericho made that part up or was just misinformed—especially since it does seem like it was legit passed around the SMW locker room and to Rick Rubin, who may have shown it off himself—who knows. But since Jericho takes credit for shooting the Dairy Queen video (it was Ron Hed or J.R. Benson; I always forget which) nearby in the SMW section and that's total bullshit, it became a lot easier to question the whole Strange Kentucky people story.

this is a long shot but blue meanie tells a story on a shoot about a buddy of his who had a gimmick of carrying a bat to the ring. He went to work in Puerto Rico as a heel and got attacked by a fan, killed him with the bat and Carlos snuck him out of the country

Does anyone know who that could have been? I just find it funny that Meanie casually rats on the guy for slugging a mark in the head with a baseball bat

e: also the answer to the best wrestler rapper question last page is absolutely john cena and it isn't even close. Bad, Bad Man still slaps in 2019

Wasn't there an episode of Smackdown, long time ago, where the Shield had to fight the entire heel roster as the main event? So they spent the entire episode beating up guys backstage to even the odds?

I could have sworn this happened but I can't figure out which episode it was.

April 25, 2014, Smackdown. I think that's the one you're thinking of.
