Either Jason wasn't that sexy or the 90s definition of sexy is weird

Either Jason wasn't that sexy or the 90s definition of sexy is weird It doesn't help that his face, especially in the early days, resembles Paul Heyman's...at least to me. I was convinced they were brothers or cousins when I was watching ECW in the 90s.

Shame that Missy was so difficult to deal with and had her loose morals, if I didn't know that, I'd think she was a sweet girl, also somewhat of an airhead, but that's okay.
Her arm wrestling contest with Paul E. is real funny. Flashing Paul some cleavage = Win.
COTC XVI: Sting VS Johnny B. Badd. Even though one is a face and the other a heel, they have no issue with one another so they shake hands to start the match. Probably helped by the fact that Badd is more "flamboyant" than evil, but heh.

Scott Levy left the wrestling business in 1994 to become a roadie/groupie tester for Pearl Jam

That Nailz wrestled one match in WCW against Sting as "The Prisoner". He even wore the same orange jumpsuit.

The Prisoner was a substitute for Scott Norton. I don't know why WCW brought him in, but they never used him again, though he wrestled a dark match as Kevin Kelly in 1997 before an episode of Nitro from Minneapolis. Supposedly he was under some kind of contract to WCW at some time and he was essentially paid to do nothing kind of like Lanny Poffo. I believe guys like Barry Darsow, John Nord, Wayne Bloom, and Mike Enos had similar deals, though they were sparingly used on Thunder or Saturday Night. Notice all of these men were Minnesotans or got started in wrestling in Minnesota, including Kelly Kelly (Kevin Wacholtz). Many of them worked for AWA when Bischoff got his start (all but Darsow).

during the January 24, 1995 episode of ECW Hardcore TV at the 13:55 mark during the Benoit/Scorpio match you can clearly hear a young Luke Gallows in the crowd

When Bertha Faye debuted (the night after WrestleMania XI) to attack Alundra Blayze, she looked like her much better Rhonda Singh character. A few weeks later, when she has her first match on Raw, she's been retooled to look like the Bertha Faye we remember. I think the Bertha Faye comedy character was not the original intention.
Also, I believe this was the first instance of someone debuting on the Raw after WrestleMania, with Mankind debuting the following year. That could be a trivia question I suppose.

Some fan shook and then threw a $1 bill at Missy Hyatt when she was ringside as the Nasty Boy's manager at the original Fall Brawl. The cameraman even zoomed in on the $1 bill laying on the ground with Jesse Ventura acknowledging it. You can see a fan try to do it again later.

Watching the second episode of SNME, after beating Volkoff and spitting on the Russian flag, I learned that Hulk Hogan is one of the biggest names in wrestling AND romance....??

British Bulldogs vs Hart Foundation on Saturday Night's Main Event Oddly enough, a few years later the Harts won the titles through this very method against Demolition at Summerslam 90. First Fall was DQ, Second Fall was a Pin.
