No way it is Orton. Considering how young he was when he came up and that he has been there, there would be no time for him to have gone to college and law school and pass the bar by now.

Sepholio 07-11-2015 07:25 PM

If it is Orton then he is my hero.

Sixx 07-11-2015 07:25 PM

Pretty sure he's no qualified lawyer. He was a marine after high school and then started wrestling.

Cool King 07-11-2015 07:26 PM

Yeah, it's probably Ziggler then.

Sepholio 07-11-2015 07:27 PM

The Rock?

Famous uncle?

Also, is he a lawyer?

bahgod

Sixx 07-11-2015 07:30 PM

Noid probably made it up and is now drunkenly laughing at us wasting our time.

Sepholio 07-11-2015 07:32 PM

I'm hung up on Ziggler due to the uncle thing and the getting the title under dubious circumstances twice. He does have some kind of law degree though I'm pretty sure

Still say it's The Rock.

Cool King 07-11-2015 07:33 PM

All I know is that I'm wrong.

He won the title when Edge was stripped of the Title and the second time with MITB

Sixx 07-11-2015 07:41 PM

Does Otunga have a famous wrestling uncle? Does he even use DDT?

Cause he's a Harvard graduate. Law.

Muwahahaha. The name hasn't been said yet. Also, keep kayfabe in mind.

Foley? Vince? I feel like this is a trick question.

Sepholio 07-11-2015 10:41 PM

Kerwin White!?!?! This one is driving me nuts.

Jazzy Foot 07-11-2015 10:53 PM

A rather straight forward one: only two wrestlers associated with the WWE were graduates of an Ivy League College (Harvard, Yale, Princeton, Pennsylvania, Columbia, Cornell, Brown, Dartmouth).

Name them.

Not as far as any signatures or finishers go. Dunno about his general moveset though.

Christopher Nowinski. DUH.

DAMN iNATOR 07-11-2015 11:05 PM

Is he the guy who gave Trish a busted nose that one time, IIRC?

DAMN iNATOR 07-11-2015 11:26 PM

David Otunga? Only other guy who springs to mind...I think both are Harvard men, too, if memory serves.

Bad News Gertner 07-12-2015 12:02 AM

Jack Swagger?

LOL, nah man, it's definitely David " 'A-List' " Otunga. His law degree is from Harvard, and that's completely from memory too. Only reason I didn't give him along with Nowinski is because I misread Jazzy's question the first time, thinking he was asking for either of the 2, not both. That was my mistake.

I remembered Nowinski right off the bat because he'd always show up in his Harvard letterman's jscket and quote all kinds of book-smart stuff.

DAMN iNATOR 07-12-2015 04:04 AM

Swagger wrestled @ U. of Oklahoma.

Sixx 07-12-2015 06:05 AM

Yeah, Otunga graduated from Harvard.

Bad News Gertner 07-12-2015 08:35 AM

I was answering Noid

Sixx 07-12-2015 08:49 AM

Hmmm. Noid said to keep kayfabe in mind. So either a kayfable uncle or a kayfable law degree, though I can't really think of anyone with a kayfabe law degree. That's silly.

Sixx 07-12-2015 08:54 AM

How bout a hint, Noid?

Blonde Moment 07-12-2015 09:00 AM

IRS and The Genius

Sixx 07-12-2015 09:26 AM

Guess I might have an idea but it comes from googling so I'll stay away. Still, the lawyer part doesn't seem to fit.

HARDDDD

Blonde Moment 07-12-2015 09:55 AM

Alberto Del Rio and JBL?

LOL, Oops. Guess the lines of communication got crossed up. Sorry.

According to WWE.com, who is the most decorated superstar of all-time and how many recognized titles do they have?

If we're oing with MoD, I'd say Gangrel.

Bad News Gertner 07-12-2015 10:50 AM

Holy fuck, it just popped into my head.

Mick Foley.

Lost a belt to someone who'd become my noted tag partner: the Rock

Famous Uncle: He referred to Paul Bearer as Uncle Paul

Used the Double Arm DDT as a finisher

He was a lawyer during the Trial of Eric Bischoff

Won the tag belt once during a dumpster match and declared himself the first hardcore champ

Defeated Chris Jericho, Bret Hart and Rick Martel (had to look this part up)

Sepholio 07-12-2015 11:50 AM

Yeah I threw Foley out up there awhile ago but Noid likes to leave people hanging. Seemed plausible. You just sealed it though because I could not remember anything about him being a lawyer irl or in character.

Bad News Gertner 07-12-2015 12:02 PM

I was listening to a Bischoff interview and he brought up the trial and that's what got me rolling.

James Steele 07-12-2015 05:47 PM

What wrestler has won the Tag Team and World Heavyweight Championships in ladder matches in December?
