The next one isn't really a rib, but because of Owen and Davey Boy's reputation, it played into it. Jim Cornette is backstage writing some TV or whatever when he was on the creative team in WWE. This is around the time that Davey Boy and HBK are feuding for the world title. Owen and Davey Boy find Jim backstage and said they had Stu Hart on the phone and he wanted to talk to him. Jim thought it was odd as he knew Stu but wasn't buddy buddy with him. Davey Boy and Owen bring in a corded phone and hand it to Jim and he immediately thinks it is a rib and Bruce Prichard is doing an impression and he is in the hallway and waiting to get one over on Jim. "Stu" keeps asking about why they are booking his daughter Diana as less than a virtuous wife at this time, he didn't agree with how it was being presented, etc. Jim lets "Stu" go on for awhile while working up his response. He gets his chance and says it is all Bruce Prichard's fault, he is nothing but a sexual deviant, likes going to sex clubs, pays women to choke him so he can feel something, and so on. "Stu" says ok, he didn't know that, and he'll talk to Vince about this. Jim Cornette hangs up and as he hangs up, he is chuckling to Owen and Davey Boy about it and asking who it was. They are astonished at what they have seen and said it was actually Stu Hart. As they say this Bruce Prichard comes walking through the opposite door from the hallway so it couldn't have been him on the phone. He asks Jim Cornette what is going on and Jim tells him nothing much but I'm pretty sure I just told Stu Hart you are a pervert.
Yeah the winner of this thread has to be the rib that wasn't really a rib.
