Weird Stuff You Remember That No One Talks About...

[sungod2020]

Just as the title of the thread says. What are moments you personally remember that strikes you as odd or random, yet you never hear about it, either through this board or from fans you know IRL? Here are mine....

Mae Young Stripping After Being Stretchered Out: I had to look it up on youtube to remember where that was from. It was after Kurt Angle angleslamed her and they brought the paramedics out and then went to a commercial break. When they came back, she was brought back to life(with her back turned to the camera fortunately) and took off her shirt and bra saying "they want to see my puppies." I was on the phone with my friend(who was a casual fan) and there was this awkward silence between us. Seconds later, we talked about something completely different, like the whole thing never happened, not acknowledging what we just saw.

D'lo Brown's 2008 Return: I think he had two matches during that run. According to wikipedia, his contract ran out in January 2009, yet I don't remember him doing anything of note except making a surprise return to no reaction(he didn't even get a "hey I remember this guy" pop) defeating Santino Marella(who I had to look up on wikipedia to see who his opponent was).

Paul Orndorf - Child Predator?: I could be completely making this up so don't quote me on this, but I think I remember reading somewhere that during Paul Orndorff's face run, he asked a child(about 8 years old) to come to the ring and pose with him. If that's not odd enough, I believe(and again, I could be misremembering this) he either signalled him to talk his shirt off or Orndorff did it himself so they can continue posing together. Does anybody have info on?

Any weird moments you can think of?

On the same note, the Mickie and Cena relationship that somehow made it on-screen for 2 weeks.

How about Tommy Dreamer admitting that he planned a murder-suicide at WM17?

That strange spell in 2019 when WWE didn't want matches running through commercials anymore post-WM. There was, maybe, 3 months in which we would have random restarts, pauses or, most bizarrely, more 2/3 count-fall matches than all of WWE's history combined.

No one talks about it anymore.

Understandably.

What made me remember that was Charlie Haas doing a parody of him shilling the product.

HBK taking someone's leg off in the crowd and hitting Diesel with it.

As a kid, I couldn't understand how this was possible as I didn't know you could have a prosthetic leg lol. I was about 2 or 3.

Moondog Vachon was the one with the prosthetic leg and in the crowd.

It was at In Your House Good Friends Better Enemies.

Heel Diesel took it off him but HBK somehow got it at smacked Diesel with it.

I remember it for the Women’s Tag Match where the Iconics have an extended tantrum during the break after getting eliminated.

All the weird shit they did on Sunday Night Heat. Most infamously, the storyline where Kaientai were being stalked by a Ninja, and the Ninja turned out to be Tne Germ... who in himself, is a "wrestler" I feel like I've never heard a single soul mention. He was this fat white guy who hung out with R-Truth, then K-Kwik, that Kwik basically tried to make the next PN News... which begs the question, why would anyone want to be the NEXT PN News?

Mad Dog Vachon. Completely different breed than a Moondog

The earliest memory I have, Bam Bam Bigelow, Cactus Jack, and Kevin Sullivan randomly beating up Captain Mike Rotunda on NWA.

Wrestlemania 6 has a couple of these. During the Roberts/DiBiase match the crowd starts doing the wave, and they even show it for a short bit. But Jesse Ventura keeps talking about it, and Gorilla starts getting annoyed with it, like you can hear it in his voice. Then during the skit where Steve Allen is rehearsing the Russian national anthem with The Bolsheviks he starts playing Pop Goes The Weasel. The Bolsheviks get upset, and Steve says "I know its not the Russian national anthem", and Boris Zhukov says, "You played Polish national anthem". Steve Allen laughs and says "Send your letters directly to him folks".

a less remembered Mad Dog Vachon one

1998 Over The Edge, Vachon and The Crusher have a legends segment which Lawler interrupts, Lawler steels Vachon's fake leg but it ends up with Crusher using it on him

And Daniel Bryan and Gail Kim being a couple for like two months because... reasons. But at least it gave us this segment.

Dr Death dressing up in a boiler suit and weird mask to push Bart Gunn off the ramp (RAW entrance ramp), then the next week JR coming out to cut a heel promo just shitting on the idea of Dr Death wearing a boiler suit and a weird mask. (Kai-Bu-Kay mask)

[ToyfareMark]

Another quote from Steve Allen at Wrestlemania 6. "I like Jimmy Snuka because he's wearing my wife's underwear".

Was that the BBQ skit when DX returned in 2006?
