Just a really random gag.
I think a mod suggested they replace Holly with Benoit or something

When Benoit died, someone here made the joke that WWE would put Hardcore Holly's name in all of Benoit's achievements. For example, Hardcore Holly beat Triple H and Shawn Michaels at WMXX to win the title.

Hmm...was it in "Benoit Thread #12" that we came up with that? Cause for a while, it was an invisible bear, a pencil, and I think Dennis Stamp. Then Holly kinda stuck.

On gamefaqs we use Perry Saturn. People even edit out Benoit's face and replace it with Saturn.

If you feel the need to replace him, I still think ChrisBen Glover is still the funniest route.
Perhaps since it was my idea that never caught on.

After hearing a recent Chris Jericho interview I think Ku Klux Klown should take Benoits spot, he's got a better reputation than Mr. Benoit. |

Golden Spike suggested it in a thread, and couple others agreed with him, and spread it around the boards. It stuck. That's about it.

Actually, when I mention Holly from now on (which is very rarely), I think I'm gonna start referring to him as Chris Benoit. Maybe it'll help the people doing it see how unfunny it is. And if not, at least I get to mock Bob Holly I mean, Chris Benoit. |

^I was content with the "he who must not be named" why we actually had to give him someone else's accomplishments and persona I never did comprehend.
