As a kid, I went through my "I want to be a wrestler stage". I was also really bad at math. Another kid in my class said that all wrestlers were good at math, because that's how they did moves. For example, wrestler a would ask wrestler b what 2 plus 2 is before doing a move. Goldberg was solving calculous and trig, which is why he was undefeated.
Another kid said that Stone Cold invited him to wrestle in the ring before an event. Vince saw it and signed him to be the champion of a new kids wrestling division that was coming out.
Someone said WCW used metal for their ropes.

WCW did use metal cables for ropes.

Everyone knows about there being two Ultimate Warriors, but I bet y'all didn't know there were multiple Kanes.

This kid who appeared at Meadowlands shows dressed as Brutus Beefcake was my friend's cousin. A super secret PPV same friend "saw" where Tito Santana and  defeated Andre the Giant and Zeus, and Tito got to slam Andre. LPWA airings on MSG Network at late nights featured nudity. Yrs, same friend. |

Wrestling was real but pretended to be fake to stop the cops from interfering.
Chris Jericho had a one night stand with Stephanie which is why HHH constantly buried him in the 00s.
The Kane action figure with removable mask that one kid definitely had but misplaced and could never bring into school. Same story re: Green Kane.
WWF were preparing to debut the third Brother of Destruction at some point, or their sister Jezebel. Raven was also supposed to be a character from their past. Sick Boy was going to debut as Katie Vicks brother out for revenge on Kane.
My friend was convinced that back in the 90s Goldust had a tag team partner called Stardust. I posted a thread on it a few years ago and low and behold, a few months later Cody debut as Stardust. More proof WWE reads these forums.

A kid who sat opposite me when I was 7 (and who remained a total tool throughout the time we were in the same school) went to 'wrestling training', like other kids went to Judo or Karate.
Each week he'd tell us about it, how a different WWF superstar came to help the training. He almost outwrestled Davey Boy Smith once.

Sick Boy was going to debut as Katie Vicks brother out for revenge on Kane. pretty sure this has been confirmed. I think it was either Scott Vick or Steve Bradley that was supposed to get called up, but they canceled everything after the angle aired. |

Considering that I saw Scott Vick in a Raw dark match around the time that this angle was going on, yeah, he was absolutely at least in the same general universe as this. |

Why was Katie Vick's brother waiting until then to get revenge and not way earlier?

Remember kids thinking that shoots in the ring were legendary, once in a lifetime events. Thanks to the Internet now it’s pretty clear that in every era they happened.

I once had someone try to convince me that Lou Albano was legitimately Cyndi Lauper's father.

I remember reading that he was going to be a member of Evolution. To think, Batista's spot nearly went to either Sick Boy or Mark Jindrak. That blows my mind lol |

Think the last was newz in the mid 90s that kept popping up...about Barry Windham's return to the WWF. That he'd be teaming with Dustin as Stardust, Silverdust, or Platinum. I do remember seeing an unmasked Kane which had a burned Undertaker face....think Freddy + Taker. |

I have yet to track down this legendary WWF championship ladder match with defending champion Bret Hart defeating Ultimate Warrior in a 30 minute spectacle, in late 1992.
My friend told me about it. He saw it in a video he rented. The timeline fit.
