Kanyon is the greatestquote:After several months he was placed with Mark Starr in a tag team called "Men at Work".[1] Their gimmick was that they were two construction workers turned wrestlers who wore jeans to the ring, and that Kanyon would cause the team to suffer losses by taking measurements with his tape measure at inopportune times.

Was there any more matches besides the tag match with Chono in which Keiji Mutoh leaves halfway through to return as the Great Muta?

Kanyon was honestly one of the best during that time. He just loved to make people smile.

TL posted:The bigger cities, at least, will still have a fairly major police presence for events. Every time I've been to WWE at the Meadowlands, there's always a bunch of NJ State Troopers around. I should have clarified, what I meant was more them following the guys to the ring from the dressing room and back again.

Why are they so loving obsessed with short match records at Wrestlemania? They make a point of Funaki losing at WMXX being "the fastest elimination at Wrestlemania of all time" beating SD Jones Then they did the Kane squash of Chavo for the ECW title at whichever Mania that was and did FASTEST WIN EVER Then they had the whole Bryan/Sheamus thing. Why do they think "fast match" is something anybody could ever care about edit: Billy Kidman had a goddamn lovely shooting star

I believe Hayes and Foley have both remarked off-handed that "This has never been done before!" is the key to get Vince onboard with anything.

I wonder how pissed Vince is about the record for "Most People Wearing a Mask in One Place" he so desperately wanted being unattainable now that Hunico has taken over the Sin Cara gimmick and Mysterio's knees have apparently exploded again.

Though, at this point, I can't really blame them for not wanting to use him anymore. He's been injured for far longer than he's been active for at least the past four years. Too bad the only replacements they have for the hispanic/latino market are Del Rio and whoever is under the Sin Cara mask this week.

During the Austin HBK WM14 match, the loudest chant of the match breaks out and it's really hard to understand and Lawler and JR are both like "can't understand what they're saying must be the boston accent". Any clue what they were chanting?

He talked about it on AOW once and cited it as the reason that keeping his body hair manageable is a daily challenge.

Along the same lines, is that Jim Johnston playing in the band that plays the DX theme? It look like 4 rock dudes, and then a dorky dude in glasses.

I just watched this recently and noticed the same thing, it is him, yeah. God that is just one of the worst performances ever. It's just so misjudged in every drat way. Awful music, awful vocals, awful arrangement. Just so completely half-assed. I really can't stand that Chris Warren hack.

Was there any reason why Kerry Von Erich dropped the IC title back to Mr. Perfect so soon after winning it at Summerslam? Was it planned that way from the outset or did Kerry lose favor with management? That pissed me off so much when I was a little kid since I loving hated Hennig for all the right reasons and I was super hyped to see KVE win the title off him since I was a smarky enough 8 year old to know that the Von Erichs were a really big deal thanks to Apter mags and a book on pro wrestling I got out from the library.

He was drugged out of his mind. Seriously, Bret talks about it in his book. He was so pilled up at that time that it was common for people to think he was mentally handicapped from first meeting him.

I think it's probably just water, no? I'd think having a bunch of grease in your hair would create myriad problems due to the slipperiness.

What was Jerry Lawler's deal with Stu Hart in the 90s? Was it just an extension of his feud with Bret? Because it seemed to go on long after that ended. He just keeps making old man jokes about him.
