Flair and Sting at XXVII each had a world title and wrestled to make one undisputed title.

fatherdog posted:I doubt Lawler is a pedophile, but given his predilection for dating women in their late teens/early 20s he certainly is a creep. He did date women under 18 in the 1980s, so he at least was a pedophile at one point in time.

Everblight posted:Ah yes, the "What about the ephebophiles! " defense It's not really a "defense" since I'm still calling him a loving creep (and, as 1000monkeys pointed out, a sex criminal). I'm just a pedant who likes to be precise about what people are accusing folks of.

I thought he started seeing Kat when she was 15 or something. I'm not googling lawler's life to confirm though who has time for that.

Edit: don't care about pedo Lawler anymore Fake edit: to get away from goons and pedophiles, what evidence is there that Vince actually still yells in the commentators earpiece? It's become a bit of an assumed trope at this point to excuse Cole et al. joshtothemaxx fucked around with this message at 17:29 on May 23, 2014 |

It's commonly understood that most of the things you frequently hear on commentary are actually coming out of Vince's mouth.

If you want to, find the unedited Smackdown feed that leaked this week. You can hear Cole and JBL talking to both Vince and Kevin Dunn about what to say.

Flippinlikebirds posted:Has Kane's long hair always been a wig? I mean in real life and also in kayfabe. Yes. Kane/Glenn Jacobs's real hair is curly and blonde. When he was Isaac Yankem that was his real hair, though at one point he dyed it to be a lighter blonde.

Here's something I've been wondering for almost a decade: how well is Booker T actually liked in general by others in the business? I thought he was REALLY disliked/hated at first because of the GI Joe stuff in WCW and his initial run in WWE, but since then I've really never heard anything bad about him.

It's become a bit of an assumed trope at this point to excuse Cole et al. As has been said, literally as recently as this past Tuesday, both Vince and Kevin Dunn do the commentary mouthpiece thing. Apparently Vince called Cole "JR" at one point.

How often to wrestlers shower? I'd assume they do right after a match but do they shower before a match too? Several times a show?

If you feel gross or you stink before a match shower before and after. Unless you're Balls Mahoney who apparently smelled like an anchovie's oval office at all times because he never bathed.

Lotus Brony posted:Seriously? Hadn't heard of this until now. Guess my respect for Booker just shot up. Thanks! It's unclear over what precisely this fight was about (last I heard), but Batista went to Smackdown and very publicly said in interviews that a lot of Smackdown guys were lazy and were on Smackdown because it was considered an easier gig than Raw. So I guess Booker T took it upon himself to express that being Triple H's pet project didn't give you a free hand to be a dick.

MassRafTer posted:The last satellite leak made it pretty clear. There's also a guy on Reddit (metsfan4ever) who works in WWE (which is confirmed) who said a few weeks back that Vince is literally in gorilla position at all TV/PPVs watching the live feed and on a headset with link to commentary. Funny story, the guy said that the last time Vince got really pissed at something was the Punk/Rock match at the 2013 Rumble over how it was progressing. He stormed away at one point which alarmed the backstage staff because he had to go out and restart the match after Shield's interference. The anger you see on Vince's face is real.

Has there ever been a really good heel vs heel match? Not one where one is the face for just that match, but both of them going full on heel the whole time? Eye gouges, cheap shots, weapons etc.
