GOP posted:http://www.dailymotion.com/video/x8puo_hulk-hogan-sleeper-on-richard-belze Well according to Wikipedia On March 27, 1985, just days prior to the inaugural WrestleMania, Belzer requested on his cable TV talk show Hot Properties that Hulk Hogan demonstrate one of his signature wrestling moves. Hogan put Belzer in a Guillotine choke, which caused Belzer to pass out. When Hogan released him, Belzer hit his head on the floor, sustaining a laceration to the scalp that required a brief hospitalization. Initially lying unconscious and bleeding, Belzer suddenly sprang to his feet just in time to make the necessary announcements leading to the commercial break. Recalling the incident on Late Night with David Letterman, Belzer explained that it was "show business in his blood" willing him back to his feet to protect the integrity of the show. Belzer sued Hogan for $5 million and later settled out of court; the settlement was rumored at $1.5 million. On October 20, 2006, on Bubba the Love Sponge, it was claimed (with Hogan in the studio) that the settlement totaled $5 million, half from Hogan and half from Vince McMahon. During his June 23, 2008 appearance on Sirius Satellite Radio's The Howard Stern Show, Belzer suggested that the real settlement amount was actually closer to $400,000.

Minidust posted:Has anyone injured their way out of as many pushes as Ahmed Johnson? I was just recalling a bunch of big matches that got canceled and it's pretty crazy. He was supposed to fight HBK at some point, a Raw in '96 I believe, but he got injured and the match was canceled. He was supposed to fight Undertaker when he turned heel, but he got injured (this pretty much messed up his whole heel turn and killed a lot of his heat). I think he was gonna fight Austin at some point too. There were other injuries on top of that and I think he was even in a car wreck at some point. Didn't he also have a bad habit of injuring people and stealing T's?

Jerusalem posted:Everything I've heard indicates that, like Ric Flair, if you're not a wrestler yourself then he gets offended if you walk up to him and start dropping "insider terms" like you're a wrestler yourself. Also Arn Anderson will never break kayfabe, even if its for a documentary its still real.

OneThousandMonkeys posted:This one is probably pretty easy. I'm pretty sure Hogan helped Big Show break into the business. Ya that is what I heard too, that Hogan saw him working out and told him he could be a wrestler. Also a serious question - ask him what it was like acting in the holiday classic Jingle all the way

I have another question, Big Show why did WCW let you go out to the ring and smoke during promos? Did any of the road agents tell you that it was a bad idea or was it completely insane and no one cared?

CombineThresher posted:Vince didn't like his ring work and didn't think he was big enough to be a WWE wrestler, but thought he had good ideas and was grooming him to be part of the creative team. Raven left because he wanted to actually wrestle. Did he also get Shane high and that lead to when Raven returned to WWE Vince screaming Who the gently caress hired Raven?

Orgophlax posted:That's a good question. What are some of the weirdest tag partners? Bossman and Akeem was pretty out there when you think about it. Head Cheese. It was a ridiculous idea pairing Steve Blackman and Al Snow together, but it worked. Also in the same boat Goldust and Booker T. The two do not seem like they would make a good team but they did.

Jerusalem posted:The most famous is Hogan's claim that he was expecting to lose at Wrestlemania 3 and then Andre said,"Pin me, brudda, I pass the torch to you to lead wrestling into the future!" and Hogan's tears of joy were real as he celebrated in the ring afterwards He also died three days later.

All this Hogan Andre talk reminds me of the story about when Hogan just started and was Andre's beer fetcher. He would toss the empties at Hogan and Hogan would have to keep track so he could get more when needed. Andre is truly the best.

Mr. Carlisle posted:I'm sure this has probably been asked before - but are there cameras present at the house shows (WWE production cameras) and are they filmed? I'd imagine if there were that they'd have a huge backlog of silly poo poo by now that would make a great DVD similar to the bloopers videos that were released in the past. Ya on the Edge DVD they have footage of him winning his first IC title which was at a house show.

Magic_Ceiling_Fan posted:While we're on the topic. What was the deal with Lanny and WCW? It seems almost like a waste of a career. They hired him due to his brother. His brother just bought the Gorgeous George gimmick and told him he could use it. Lanny got ready by getting into shape and dying his hair. However, WCW never called him and refused to answer his phone calls. All the while Lanny got paid. It seems like its just WCW being WCW.

I thought he was coming in and everything and it was all a let down Wasn't he treated like poo poo back stage due to his behavior in WCW or am I thinking of someone else? I also think they should have an intervention with Scott Hall, Jake the Snake and Chyna. Think of the hilarity.
