The Stone Cold/Owen Hart match at Summerslam 97 was a really really good match up until Austin has his neck broken.

That Lord Steven Regal was actually supposed to be a member of the House of Lords.
Also that the Guardian Angel would motion in the ring as if he were twirling his nightstick despite not holding anything.

The 2nd biggest heel in ECW 1994 was Shane Douglas. The first? Ric Flair.

Eh, not the most dangerous thing Benoit's done to someone. There's a certain thing Chris did that ended up defining his legacy in the wrestling industry, that became synonymous with his name. {Spoiler}{Spoiler}{Spoiler} ![](http://stream1.gifsoup.com/view/26815/benoit-breaks-sabu-s-neck-o.gif) I don't even know what the Hell he was trying to do. ![:P](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/tongue.png)

The sound the ring makes during ECW Barely Legal 1997 is amazing.

People say Mike Awesome couldn't sell or bump. At Invasion he sold the shit of some of the weakest offense ever from Edge.

OK, so perusing through random RAWs and I come across the TV debut of The Bodydonnas, Skip and Sunny. The following is a list of things that ruined their debut in-ring promo... - Vince McMahon and Shawn Michaels talking over the top of them on commentary
- A crappy house mic
- Their entrance music still going
- Barry Didinski shilling the WWF Shop hotline, a hotline that I can't even call now to get the King Of The Ring cap and t-shirt set or the Bret Hart signature sunglasses, cap and t-shirt set
Seriously. If just one of those things happened to a midcarder today (of course, that's when they ever get the mic, but that's another issue entirely), people would either be screaming blue f***ing burial or marking out for the sudden Barry Didinski cameo.

Not something I learned, but was reminded about...
The NWA male fans knew BS when they saw it. Great American Bash 1989 had the Dynamic Dudes vs. the Skyscrapers. The girls went crazy for the babyface blonde, half-shirt wearing Frisbee-throwers. The guys pretty much spent the entire match chanting "WE WANT SID! WE WANT SID!"
(Not a pretty match by any means, but the Dudes had the Rock & Roll Express sell-job down, with Shane playing the role of Ricky Morton.)

They teased a Jerry Lawler/Mr. Perfect feud in the 1993 Royal Rumble match. Idt anything came of it because immediately after Perfect feuded with Luger and Lawler just kinda floundered around til KOTR.

I've been making my way through the episodes of Saturday Night's Main event lately and I've learned that this show was so much fun.
Some other things learned from what I've watched of SNME so far:
- George "The Animal" Steele creeps me out. Real bad.
- Jesse Ventura's "I couldn't tell if he was holding a microphone or a vibrator" line is so gloriously awkward/wonderful.

That The Patriot wrestled in WCW and was in a team with Bagwell. Always thought he was just some indy wrestler they brought in to feud with Bret in WWF.
