The Undertaker being multiple people was prominent for years, I remember my neighbours pretty much shooting down my 10 year old self when I rightly said it was the same guy when I happened to be watching wrestling when they popped round one day. Their son was already in his twenties by this point and had been watching since the eighties so they were well aware of who The Undertaker was, however, their explanation as to why they thought he was a different person will stay with me forever as one of the stupidest pieces of reasoning I ever heard. Wait for it...
'How can it be the same person, he has way more tattoos now!'
Cue, the child me sitting there open mouthed at the sheer stupidity of the answer and them smugly walking off like they'd just solved the meaning of life.

I think GTV was actually going to be Goldust, the first time it appeared on Raw it was called GDTV. That was almost certainly the original plan. Then, I remember the rumor being Thrasher, with the G for Glen Ruth, though no idea how likely that was. I would love if they just brought back GTV without any explanation. There was also a rumor that Russo pitched it would be comedian Tom Green behind GTV (Since in 99 Green's show was doing extremely well on MTV), but McMahon canned the idea because he had no idea whom Green was.

That was because on a random ass episode of Heat during the Chaz is a domestic abuser storyline (thanks Attitude Era/Russo!) Thrasher came out and used GTV to show that his ex-girlfriend was using makeup to make fake bruises.

Any time a writer suggests a domestic violence angle, a pregnancy, or a stalker angle, he needs to spray it at their face until they learn to stop doing that.

That Ultimate Warrior died right before Wrestlemania 6 and someone replaced him. The Flock was reuniting in WWE when Raven was there.

He also held up a tape so that's why I always thought he was revealed as the mastermind.
