Some shitty stuff which you might have never realised.
Just post all the shitty stuff about wrestling that you think might have gone unnoticed.
eg. Undertaker held the record of the shortest World title reign by a Royal Rumble winner. Even Rey Mysterio J.R. had a longer championship reign. Most of the time Kurt Angle uses a leg lock along with the ankle lock in order to make his opponents submit. Benoit earned his first wwe pinfall victory at WrestleMania owing to flying Headbutt. Previously he has used the manuver to register victories in WCW. |
Didn't Triple H have it shorter than Undertaker?
|
Yeh, Trips had it one month before he lost to the Orange Goblin.
|
Trips 1 Month & 4 Days.
Taker 1 Month & 1 Day. |

No, look...
Triple H - 35 days. (March 17-April 21 2002) Undertaker - 37 days (April 1-May 8 2007) Yup I'm so bored I looked it up. |

Surely Yokozuna holds the record of the shortest world title reign by a Royal Rumble winner of just under 3 mins (or whatever it was)

Seriously, though, some random facts:
* Batista has spent more time as a World Champion than The Rock, Kurt Angle and The Undertaker. * Randy Orton may be the youngest man to win a World Championship in the WWE, but Big Show won the WCW Championship when he was 23 years old. Mikey Whipwreck won the ECW World Championship, which is still active, when he was 23 years old, as well. Lou Thesz is the youngest World Champion of all-time winning the NWA World Heavyweight Championship at just 21 years of age. * If the WWE recognises Ric Flair as a 16-time World Champion, then the same rules applied to Jeff Jarrett make him a 10-time World Champion, which ties him for third most World Title reigns in sports entertainment history. If they count AWA's history (and I believe they do), Verne Gagne is also on that level. * Minoru Suzuki is the youngest current reigning World Champion in Japan (AJPW Triple Crown Champion). He is 39 years old. Yuji Nagata is just a few months older at 40 (IWGP World Heavyweight Champion). Mitsuharu Misawa is turning 44 this year (GHC Heavyweight Champion). Compare this to the WWE: John Cena is 30 years old, Edge is 33 and Bobby Lashley (not current Champion, but Vince's golden boy and desires Champion) is also 30. * Shawn Michaels trained Tomko; William Regal, Finlay and Dave Taylor partly trained CM Punk. * Jeff Hardy, Val Venis and William Regal are only the WWE Championship away from joining Shawn Michaels, Triple H and Chris Jericho as Classic World Wrestling Federation Grand Slam Champions, in being former WWE Champions, Intercontinental Champions, European Champions and World Tag Team Champions. |
Bwahahahaha! I never knew this, but apparently Bobby Lashley's first name is "Franklin". :lol:
|
|
Notel Vontavius Porter's initials, MVP, also mean "Most Valuable Player."
Or "Moist Vagina, Please." |

Comparison's been done before. As has the "first name" bit. But at least it's not THAT old.

First time I'm hearing it...

This was in another thread, but here's the basic outline.
Sean Waltman was NOT the first person to hold WCW and WWF titles at the same time. Someone said they liked how Ultimo Dragon came out with eight titles at once.... Quote:

Back on subject here....shitty stuff we might not have ever realized...
Wrestlers used to get disqualified for throwing the opponent over the top rope...unless it was the Royal Rumble |
Wrestlers can get DQed for a closed fist.

Was that rule ever actually enforced in the WWWF/WWF/New York territory though?
|
Let alone was it enforced in the Capitol Wrestling Corporation?

Always thought it was a stupid rule. |
OK, this is kind of off topic a little bit, but seeing as we're talking about rules and stuff, it seems appropriate:
What is this shit with Michael Cole always defending a face wrestler for using a chair if a heel introduces it? A face using it because it's there is opportunistic, so I assume he's trying to get at some rule that a weapon can be used by a guy if his opponent is the one who introduces it. Is there, or has there ever been, a rule like that? The way I always looked at foreign objects in the WWE is this: If you do something to your opponent, and the weapon happens to get in the way, that's perfectly legal (a whip into a ladder set up in the corner would not result in a DQ unless you deliberately placed the ladder there, and even then it's iffy. If you wield a weapon, and use it to transfer kinetic energy into your opponent, and nice vice versa, you can get disqualified. |
Refs always prevent the babyface tag team from making a blind tag, but when the heel team does it, the ref doesn't do anything.
|
Has a face wrestler ever been caught doing it and not DQed?
Because my thought on the matter was simply that Cole was arguing self defense: The heel has introduced something bad, but he's reminding us the face's use is ONLY because the heel was going to use it first. It's simple, to my knowledge complete, and doesn't require overthinking. |

That's why I asked, is all. |
Cole's not exactly an evenly written character. Like God, his motives seem to change on the whim of the author.
Also like God, I'm pretty sure he's a work of fiction. :shifty: |

Hacksaw Jim Duggan is the only Royal Rumble winner in history to have never received a WWE World Championship shot at any time in his career
|
Bullshit, he wrestled Sgt. Slaughter for the title on Saturday Night's Main Event shortly after Slaughter became champion.
|
I believe he may have been DQ'ed.
