That was a very strange moment with Chavo going "Wait, maybe *all* wrestlers are brain damaged :aaaaa: "

The other funny moment was Vince's little speech. "Truly Benoit was one of the greatest...*brain goes through a three second reboot to avoid saying 'Wrestlers'*...sports entertainers of all time"

Now I'm just remembering the bizarre story of Miz getting kicked out of the locker room by Benoit for smearing chicken crumbs on someone's bag. Which is what it is, but then Benoit died and locker room rules dictated Benoit had to be the one to let him back in too. So Miz just spent months changing out in the hall until Undertaker finally noticed and went "Uh, get back in here dummy, I wave my magic Locker Room Leader wand"

Yeah, that was the one where New Jack basically said "I was trying to kill this guy and I messed up"

Running away until all the steroid lunks tear their own quads would work out alright, until you get to Bart Gunn, then you'd die

Reminds me of Billy Gunn on a recent AEW podcast.

Schiavone: Could Bart Gunn beat up ten people at a bar?

Billy: Yes.

Schiavone: You say that so matter of factly.

Billy: Yes.

What happened to Blackman in the BFA? And wasn't he like legit going to kill everyone until they made some anti-blac
kman rule?
Blackman beat Mark Mero in the first round, then hurt himself training and had to bow out. It was Dan Severn who basically went "I get a point for takedowns? Alright, I'm just going to do double legs and win this by a million points, I will never throw a punch because I don't have to." After he beat Godfather this way, they pulled him out of the tournament

I'd always heard Davey Boy was trying to help but he was too much of a steroid lunk to get out of the car before Shawn got his rear end whupped

Well gently caress. That police report really makes it sound like it was Owen's sillyass cape that killed him. The test (and the one rigger's testimony) would indicate the thing started choking him on the descent, Owen tried pulling at it and pulled the cheap release mechanism instead.

And then they sent Jeff Jarrett, by most accounts Owen's best friend, out there to wrestle next to a big puddle of his blood.

That one police report would indicate he fell about as soon as they let him go from the rafters. The one with the testimony from the rigger.

Here's a web archive of a page by a fan who posted a bunch of pictures from the event:

I'm confused as to where Owen was bleeding from.

Seems he gashed his right arm somewhere during all this.

They had Kanyon get thrown off the top of a cage. Same arena, just over a year later

Two guys, seemingly. The replacement (cheap) rigger WWE hired, and one other. Second guy claims to have looked away for a second when they started lowering Owen, looked back and he was gone.

I did like Animal's story about how Hawk was a literal teen movie villain growing up, fighting people in high school and then on the off chance you beat him he was your best friend
