That's 1-900-909-9900! Kids, get your parents' permission...

[agent817]

That line is still in my head after more than two decades. I know that ECW had their hotlines when I saw ads for it when watching ECW on TNN. Just like I remember that the WWF had the Superstar Line. However, this number and line is still in my head. I got to thank Mean Gene (RIP) for that, especially since I got caught calling that number. Of course, this has nothing on me calling a sex line later on thanks to seeing those commercials that aired during WCW Worldwide and WWF Jakked back in those days.

Did anyone call this number?

I call the original WCW hotline in the early 90s, like 91 or 92 based on me living in my childhood home. I really didn't do "phone calls" ever as a kid so me being on the phone was something unusual. My father was pretty pissed when he caught me.

[KAMALARAMBO: BOOMSHAKALAKA!!!]

I only called once but I must have dialed 8 instead of one of the 9s. If it was the right number I’m surprised that Mean Gene had such a seductive voice and said he’d sit on my face.

[Mozenrath]

I never called it, but I remember hearing Mean Gene got a cut and made like 250k off of it, so a lot of people must've.

I never asked for my parents permission because I knew the answer would be no, and because I was afraid Mean Gene would answer and I wouldn't know what to say.

You could've called 555-SHOE because kids didn't even need their parents permission.

I called the WWF Superstar Line during SummerSlam ‘93 and Royal Rumble ‘94, but I did have my parents’ permission.

One inspired by MiLB Fan 😁

I called. My parents weren't too happy about the phone bill..

I heard Mark Madden ramble about Hulk Hogan playing politics and say something about Dustin Rhodes returning (this would've been around August/September 1999).

I preferred 1-800-YES-CREDIT! That’s 1-800-YES-CREDIT!

I called 1-800-big-boobs once.

I got in trouble.

I tried that once, but I misdialed and ended up at 1-800-big-pubes instead. Had a very pleasant conversation with a French woman.

[Squirrel Master]

The two times when I called, it featured Jim Ross speaking in slow-motion about nothing, and promising a major announcement within the next five minutes …which turned out to be useless information.

Needless to say, I wised up quickly.

Was that the hotline run by Tony Atlas? 🤔

[06vwgti]

Kind of surprised no one recorded the calls or saved them and posted them up online like on Youtube, I never called the line, but seems like something fun to listen to for nostalgia purposes lol

Also spells 555-RGNE. And no one knows more about RGNE than Dr. RGNE!

Never mind that....

He's Captain Lou and he's talking to you!

Don't get me started what 1-800-WARRIOR led you to.
