The Jim Duggan dildo blender story will always be canon as far as I'm concerned. The only time I've ever heard of a dildo in wrestling was the rumor that Jake Roberts has a pink dildo but I've never heard the Duggan rumor.

The one about Vince paying someone to put out a cigarette.

I'm pretty sure it was in one of the older versions of the Wrestling Sleaze list. Basically it was a dildo stuck in a blender that could be spun at high speeds. Duggan supposedly had such a device and liked to use it on women.

I absolutely believe that a significant factor, perhaps the most significant factor, in Daniel Bryan being sidelined so long was that he was too over and they didn't want to push him. Especially after the comments we've seen about Bryan's health from non-WWE doctors. I'm with ya on this one. He wasn't Vince's chosen one, and he had to have been salty as f*** that he had to cave in for that years WM instead of giving us the match we all wanted of course, Orton vs. Batista... I've made a few jokes about the whole situation since Bryan announced his return, but honestly there's gotta be more to it, the timing of it alone gives it some validity. How convenient, eh? I dunno why I suddenly went Canadian and/or Minnesota-ian there.

Tammy Sytch working a MMA guy to put over Tazz by offering him "special favors" and afterward telling him she won't do that for jobbers seems legit.

I would say "wouldn't most corporations have at least one line of failsafe against this?", but we're talking about WWE. Allegedly Laurinaitis was told, "Johnny we want this kid Tenacious Z, his name is Zack Gowen, he's 18 years old from the Detroit area, he moved great despite only having one leg." So John was told the name, his age, and his location. Despite having all the information, Laurinaitis signed a forty year old guy who quit wrestling years ago and wasn't Zack Gowen. That's the biggest example of incompetence in the history of wrestling. Even worse - Big Johnny was given Gowen's phone number!

I totally believe "Excellent Question Shelton" happened I buy it, given he had probably never seen Tarver in his life before then. In a crowd from across a big room, I could buy him thinking it as Shelton, the resemblance isn't at all strong but not wildly implausible. More confusing was Xavier Woods saying Vince called him Zeke once. Guessing Woods was either kidding, or Vince was bad with names. Vince is old, and he's taken a lot of shots to the head. I wouldn't be surprised if Vince does have some trouble with names. I absolutely believe that a significant factor, perhaps the most significant factor, in Daniel Bryan being sidelined so long was that he was too over and they didn't want to push him. Especially after the comments we've seen about Bryan's health from non-WWE doctors. I think it was mainly because of the match against Orton, that led to him getting in Triple H's face. The WWE saw somebody who wouldn't stop, even when it was obvious that he should have stopped in that match, and he got pissed about it. They didn't want anything horrible to happen on their watch. I believe every Vince story, that Daniel Bryan was fired because Triple H's kid cried, Christian and the Malaysian slaves,Carlito being told to "spic it up" before a promo, "good question,Sheldon" and snuka not talking to police because Vince told him to kayfabe. That was started here. Somebody said it as a joke as to the reason Bryan got abruptly fired, then other places ran with it as gospel.

I enjoy that roughly a quarter of the stories mentioned as being believed so far have a response a little later with "that was a joke made on this forum".

I could totally believe the Rock winning the European Belt off of Mark Henry in a game of Madden (during the NOD days).

As a guy who has followed the CFL many times in the past I have no idea how I never heard about this. I believe it was the Buffalo Sabres who drafted someone who didn’t exist. It wasn’t incompetence though. Back when they did it, the NHL draft was done by conference call and things could get tedious. So the GM announced he’d drafted a player Japan. He kept the ruse up all the way to training camp, before telling anyone.

Hacksaw's dildo bender isn't confirmed and it's just hearsay.
Meanwhile Raven and the flock's rhino was confirmed as real.

Vince McMahon - "Hide around backstage and don't let anyone know you're debuting tonight."
Kevin Owens -"but what if people see me in my gear?"
Vince McMahon- "Tell them to go f*** themselves."

The more stories I hear about Big Johnny, the more I wonder how he kept his job.
