TL posted:How old is Tyler Fullington now? Like 20? Sandman would be the mentor to his kid, then halfway through the angle turn on him and join Raven (because they were around back in the day, and there's no bond like a wrestling bond) using all the tricks he never told his son. Then in the blow off Tyler is putting up a good showing but getting cut off at the pass every time. Sandman, his heart touched by his son's desire to follow in his footsteps, gives his son rousing encouragement to help him counter the Evenflow DDT into a pinfall. It's so predictable, but with Paul E. at the helm it would loving work.

I believe that also happened on an overseas house show, which caused the Womens' Title to switch hands twice in that tour.

In that amount of time, Chris could have: -made a cup of coffee, -used the bathroom and washed his hands, -put the dogs in the enclosed pool area...

The joke was that, despite it's very specific descriptors, it was an object that had no discernible shape to it, and yet those poor kids were for some reason compelled to look for it. And all this time it was just a sideways fisherman suplex. Doctor Seuss would have made a great booker.

Flameingblack posted:The rumor mill says he was once a professional pitcher for a Baseball team, but had to retire because he had hurt his arm. We had pictures of the guy we thought was him, but at the time I hadn't uncovered the maskless UMB picture. I don't quite remember if it was the same person or not. I believe I've seen the same one. It was a bunch of wrestlers with no masks, and figuring it out could be a bit of a chore but Mantis is definitely the cute one (after Bryce of course).

Hirams Bitch posted:In-story, there was a time where if McMahon said something would happen and then guaranteed it, it would always happen (although not always in the way it was foreshadowed). So if he guaranteed Austin would not leave the next PPV with the title, Austin would not leave the next PPV with the title. He did it a couple times and then everyone caught on and it was pretty cool. This sounds like an awesome way to swerve the smarks. For instance, "I guarantee Stone Cold won't leave the next pay per view with the championship." And then someone steals the belt after the match. Then "I guarantee Stone Cold will be in an unfortunate and debilitating accident by the night's end." And then they do that Charlie Chaplin thing where the front of a fake house or interview segment set falls on him and Austin is standing where an open window happens to be. But someone is hit by a real piece of it, like Coach or John Matthews. And then when people catch on. "At Wrestlemania, Stone Cold Steve Austin will be pinned by The Rock, 1, 2, 3." Then Stone Cold loses clean via pinfall in ten minutes.

OneThousandMonkeys posted:Yeah Bret brags all over the place that he never intentionally injured anyone. Then there is a two-page segment where he details kicking the poo poo out of Jerry Lawler because Lawler stiffed him with a cane weeks earlier. Then there's all the times that people got incidentally injured in Bret's matches, which doesn't really count against Bret, but going by Bret's criteria, there are very few people who have injured others in wrestling. How is that a brag? I would brag if I had never un-intentionally injured a person. Keep up some bad dude cred but still a very safe guy to work with.
