I know the TPWW staff/news folks get shit. I just got some random AIM from someone, obviously a Cena fan from the name, who asked me if I KNEW John Cena. Odd shit.

Now they could have meant do I know who he is, but this is the only site where my AIM info is posted. It sounded more like I was being asked if I knew John Cena. Odd, I think to myself...Do I come off as a wigger?

Anyway, anyone else get weird shit related to rassling?

Not wrestling, but one time some kid IM'ed me and asked questions about Runescape. Never played the game in my life.

When I wrote columns, I often got emails from people telling me I need to write certain angles for Vince McMahon like I worked for WWE.

Also got a guy asking me for a copy of a match I had with Chris Candido at IYH: Beware of Dogs (where the lights went out for like 2 hours on PPV) even though it was a blatant parody.

When I used to write columns, I'd get e-mails similar to what Rob described. I think a lot of columnists do.

Also, after I posted the articles about my experience in running a (very) small promotion, I got e-mailed by two friends who wanted to enter my fed as a tag team. They were disapointed when I told them the promotion dies over two years ago, and that it was written in the article. I guess they didn't read it entirely.

Spoke to some fool about his Hardcore Holly obsession.

"Stop calling him Bobcore!" he kept yelling.

I just laughed and laughed.

People e-mail me all the time with tons of different wrestling questions. Questions about me, my promotion, wrestlers I work with, and just random WATN's and other information. I really rather enjoy discussions; as long as people are respectful.

Oh gosh, tell me about it. My brother was hooked on that shit for like months. I think he's since found another game, but gah. I despise Runescape.

I get a few odd contacts here and there. The weirdest being from the guy who says's he's Raven. Then the next week says he's Jeff Hardy. Its just weird. I think the guy might be high.

I'll mark out next time I see Jon Farrer. Probably for different reasons though.

Once this guy added me on MSN and asked if I knew how to contact Dawn Marie, I replied 'Umm... sorry no I don't' and then he said 'Oh ok...' then wrote an essay about how he adores Dawn Marie, which was enough for me to hit the 'Block' button, followed rapidly by 'Delete'. Weird.

Did you also hit the "kill" button?

I don't know how onlyu half of that posted. :|

Someone seriously sent me a message on MSN asking me if I was Mick Foley

I think it started when a mate of mine had his own wrestling site which he deliberatly filled with useless information and lies to see if anyone would believe him, and he put my old MSN address as Mick Foley's email. It was pretty funny having some kid asking me all these questions about how Colette and the kids were.

Actually thinking about it.....its kinda freaky.

I guess this is the same sort of thing...

A girl was under the impression that I was Batista, and that SuperSlim was Booker T...

Of course, Slim abused his position of trust and obtainted nudes of her.

This girl in a WWE hcat room about five years ago thought I wasactually Benoit just because my user name was "Rabid Wolverine". It took her a while to be convinced that I actually was not Chris Benoit.
