Three more and this is in regards to fan reactions nobody talks about....
At Wrestlemania V when they were showing the crowd one guy flips off the camera and they quickly turned to another part of the arena.
Mr. Perfect was mocking The Red Rooster by crowing and the crowd pops.
Final one when "Hacksaw" Jim Duggan comes out to Team Hogan at the 1990 Survivor Series, a fan boos while giving him a thumbs down.

Jobbers Mark Starr and Frankie Lancaster having a mini-feud on WCW Worldwide.
Speaking of Mark Starr, Mike Winner replacing Kanyon in Men At Work.
J.T. Southern.
Not anything that actually happened, but I remember it was rumoured that Bob Backlund's heel turn, complete with snapping & staring at his hands, was supposed to be due to a Papa Shango curse.
No one really talks about the Yoshi Kwan character in WCW anymore... managed by Harley Race. He stole Cactus Jack's little sack.
Joe Fowler replacing Mean Gene when he left in '93. I think he lasted a month.

I couldn't stop laughing when Mae Young tripped while attempting the bronco buster on Crash Holly. I believe she did it over again and got it right.

In the 80s, Bob Backlund had a feud with George "The Animal" Steele, where Steele tried to convince people that Backlund cheated. The interview was him saying "Backlund! Cheat! Object!"

I've mentioned this before, but during a WCW on Home Shopping Network special edition episode with Kevin Nash, and they did a fan Q&A. The fan asks Nash when Syxx is returning. Nash says they are working on a new deal.
This was sometime in late 1998.
So Syxx had been X-Pac for months.
I was 10, and thought Syxx was coming back. Looking back, I'm so confused. Did this fan really not know he was in WWF?

I remember in 2000, Kid Rock made an appearance and did a mini-concert on RAW for whatever reason. I've never heard anybody talk about that since. What makes it even weirder is during his song(I'm almost sure it was American Badass) when he cursed, the bleep was a second or two late.

I have this memory from an episode of RAW that aired when I was a kid where The Rock was actually cooking. He was grilling hot dogs or sausages in the crowd and got some random woman in the audience to eat one.
I have no idea if that was even The Rock or if this even happened lol. I'm gonna guess this was 1999 or 2000. This has bugged me for a loooooong time

"You'll defend that title tonight, and by god, you will defend it against KAAAAAAAAAAANNNNNNNNEEEEEEEEEE." It seemed like McMahon was constantly screaming this line on RAW around 1998-2001.

Final one when "Hacksaw" Jim Duggan comes out to Team Hogan at the 1990 Survivor Series, a fan boos while giving him a thumbs down. I’ve seen Survivor Series 1990 a billion times and just recently noticed there’s a man and a woman in one of the front rows who stand up and cheer every time a heel team scores an elimination.

It was definitely on TV, I was too young for magazines lol. I literally can't even think of a purpose to the segment, it was just Rock grilling some sausages and then some woman ate them lmao. It feels like something that would've been mentioned at least once but I've never seen ANYONE talk about it

I think he lasted a month. I've been re-reading Foley's first book, and just read the chapter about his face turn end feud with Vader. He mentions that the original plan was for him to end Kwans undefeated streak, only for Johnny B. Badd to beat him like 2 weeks before the ppv.

For fan reactions, there was an older woman in the front row at Survivor Series 95. She didn't seem to care much, save for clapping for the winners. But when Shawn Michaels was out, this lady suddenly came to life lol

I was watching an episode of win, Lose or Draw in 1997-98, the Pictionary-esque gameshow hosted by Alan Thicke. There was a huge muscular guy on there that I recognized, but couldn't place him. Finally, they addressed him as 'Shawn Michaels'. Obviously, it was Shawn, but he looked so much bigger than the other contestants on the show that it threw me off, given that he didn't look that big compared to other wrestlers.

Alan (feeling HBK's physique): Nothing on this guy moves. HBK: Well, some of it moves! Why do I remember this so vividly.

So, I didn't exactly remember this lol but I've been on a WCW kick recently. I'm watching the November 18th, 1996 episode right now. It opened with Hall and Nash standing in the ring, holding chairs, The Nasty Boys and High Voltage laid out. They end up brawling with The Faces of Fear, then when they came back from a commercial break, Tony Schiavone walked off the set, because he didn't feel safe, leaving Larry Zbyzsko to call the show alone until Mike Tenay came out. I never even knew this happened lol I remembered Bobby Heenan walking off of Nitro the night of the backstage attack (when Rey Mysterio got lawn darted), but the only time I ever remembered Tony walking out was after Fall Brawl 1997.
Might as well add a few as I watch lol
Juventud Guerrera seemed to be the designated jobber of WCW in late 1996. The last three episodes I've seen, he lost a TV Title to match to Lord Steven Regal, then back to back weeks against newcomers Miguel Perez and La Parka.
Bobby Heenan picked Dean Malenko, of all people, to win the World War 3 battle royal.
They ended the previous episode of Nitro by showing Roddy Piper's music video from 1992, "I'm Your Man" and trying to imply that Piper had been wanting to fight Hogan since 1992.
They seemed to be teasing an alliance between The Nasty Boys and the former Booty Man? During a match, they showed Knobbs and Sags trying to get in the building but being turned away. Outside the building, The Booty Man was just standing there and he started talking to The Nasties, but we couldn't hear what they were saying.

How about a promo no one remembers because the match it set up never happened?: In the set-up to Wrestlemania XII, Razor Ramon cuts a promo that honest to god sounds like he's trying to get Goldust to f*** him, starting with "Goldust, I don't want the belt! I want......YOUR ASS!" and just getting stranger from there.
