Did You Know?
 
WWE broadcasts to 14.4 million fans per week in the U.S.
WWE broadcasts in 30 languages to more than 145 countries.
More than 20 WWE books are on the New York Times best seller list.
23 percent of WWE's television audience is Black/African-American and 19 percent is Hispanic.

Now that you've read some boring ones, add (or make up) some more interesting ones.

WWE does not know that an orange would be a bigger draw than John Cena amongst the 18-49yo

screech 05-13-2011 09:09 PM

I watch wrestling online 73% of the time. 97% of the time it has already aired on television.

Providence Peep 05-13-2011 09:10 PM

Did you know JR is gonna open up a can of BBQ sauce on your candy ass?

screech 05-13-2011 09:13 PM

More often that not, I also poop during Divas matches.

Providence Peep 05-13-2011 09:18 PM

Did you know Kharma ate my sister's baby?

screech 05-13-2011 09:18 PM

My fiancée always tries to have conversations with me during shows. I have to tell her to shut the hell up 100% of the time.

Mr.Pewterschmidt 05-13-2011 09:21 PM

Did you know? Every time you lick a stamp, sending hate mail to Vince McMahon, you're consuming 1/10 of a calorie.
Speaking of calories, During your lifetime, you'll eat about 60000 pounds of food. That's the weight of about half the catering backstage at WWE tv tapings.

Did you know if she doesn't shut up you should beat her?

Providence Peep 05-13-2011 09:30 PM

Did you know the WWE pay-per-views would get better buyrates if the price of the pay-per-views weren't so outrageous?

screech 05-13-2011 09:44 PM

My facts are more informative and interesting than yours.

WWE does know, however, that they can't hear your bitching and whining over the sound of all the money that floods in over Cena merchandise.

This is correct, but 60000 pounds of that food is for most of the roster, the rest of it is there for Mark Henry and the Big Show.

Did you know that there are more factors involved in pricing a PPV than just the expected buyrates?

Moreover, do you think that if making more money was as simple as dropping PPV prices, it wouldn't be done in half a second?

Providence Peep 05-13-2011 09:49 PM

Did you know that when Vince McMahon bought Stampede Wrestling from Stu Hart in 1984, WWF booker George Scott had to promise to hire Bret Hart, Dynamite Kid, Davey Boy Smith, Bad News Allen and Jim Neidhart, Stu's top stars?

Lock Jaw 05-13-2011 09:51 PM

Did you know, I don't like thinking about things when I'm watching wrestling. So if I'm watching with someone else and they start to be all "This is obviously what is going to/should happen", I have to be all like "Ugh. Yeah, I know. I just don't care to think about it right now".

Providence Peep 05-14-2011 12:05 AM

Did you know Eric Bischoff made this remark about Jim Cornette? "He is a low rent con man that is only good at gaining the attention of the internet wrestling community. Trust me, he never has nor ever will become a part of a meaningful national promotion. But if you are looking for a bootleg dvd or a fake autograph....hes your guy!"

And also, did you know that, in 1996, The Warlord (Terry Szopinski) was forced to retire from the business because of a car accident involving a Pizza Hut delivery driver? After attempting a comeback in 2001, he suffered severe leg damage in a motorcycle accident.

Mr.Pewterschmidt 05-14-2011 12:23 AM

Did you know Eric Bischoff is a piece of shit? Wait- everyone knows that.

Xero 05-14-2011 12:41 PM

Did you know? The only reason WWE does "Did you know" segments is to masturbate themselves and give themselves a false sense of attracting sponsors.

Shisen Kopf 05-15-2011 10:58 PM

Didja no??

The Anvil taught Davey Boy how to drug his wife's orange juice right before bed time each night. Then the next morning their wives would awaken with bloody, sore anuses. It took them a few bloody anuses to realize their husbands were anally raping them.

screech 05-16-2011 01:47 AM

I did not know that.

I think wrestling is the only industry where I can't tell if a statement like that is serious or not.

Do you want my old stuff?’ So he gave me a couple of pairs of maroon trunks, knee pads and boots. For me, that was a huge honor. I started wearing maroon after that, and I’ve pretty much worn it ever since. I’ve kept the color as a tribute to him.”

I actually have a few more, but I'd hate to beat the premise to death. Better to go out on a high note like Seinfeld rather than go all Drew Carey Show.
