WWE Ask a Question Thread

[Shadowmancer]

This is a Thread for those questions that you wonder about and want an answer to but asking them may be stupid if you ask them in a dedicated thread because they only have one answer. So this thread is for Closed questions only!! So limited Questions in terms of focus. Open Ended Questions are for threads. This is also not a Trivia thread. Don't Treat it like one

What is a closed question?

A question which has a limited number of logical answers (eg 'yes' and 'no'), as opposed to an open or open-ended question.

What is an open question?

A question that gains information, usually beginning with who, what, why, where, when, how, or more subtly 'tell me about..'

[TheOneBigWill]

Could someone tell me whether or not the Summerslam Anthology thats coming out next month will contain the Chris Benoit matches on them or not?

W.W.E. has edited a lot of their product with Chris Benoit on it, and they've pulled several past DVDs thats had him in matches, only to edit him out. I'm just curious if anyone knows whether the Summerslam set will be edited with Benoit being cut out of all his Summerslam matches.. or if anyone has an answer to this??

[Y 2 Jake]

On the Silver Vision (UK Distributor) website he's on the match listings.

[TheOneBigWill]

On the Silver Vision (UK Distributor) website he's on the match listings.

Is there any difference (other than region) between the UK version and the American version then? If so, what?

[Y 2 Jake]

None at all. Well maybe different packaging. UK DVDs usually have age ratings on the spine. But otherwise no.

It's better to get Tagged Classics anyway. They are just video transfers. They don't blurr out the WWF signa.

[lionheart01]

Where can you get those tagged classics?

Because ive never seen them before but they seem like a good product

[Monkey Winchester]

You can pick them up at any Video Store Like Best BUy, Circuit City, I have found them in Wal-Mart and K-Mart where I live. If you live anywhere other than the U.S. I am sure you will be able to find them in any video store that sells wrestling DVD's.

[Y 2 Jake]

i dont see why they would. hes got a few matches on the Ladder match dvd and they didnt cut him out of that one nor did they pull that dvd. i think that WWE only did that at the time because they didnt really know what to believe and now after learning that the murder wasnt his normal self, that his brain trauma or damage actually had something to do with what he did plus that medication and steroids and eddies death and how unwell he was dealing with it even just before he passed, (glad this is typed cause id be out of breath) i think they have kind of started to let it go and sort of let those fans of his even if he did do what he did, kind of let them have parts of his dvd through other dvds i think. if that makes any sense. i think that WWE knew after that happened, he still had fans and they figured well over time maybe we shouldnt be so unfair to these loyal fans of his that are left and i dunno, i tried to elaborate on this but like i said, he was in the ladder match dvds and those came out long after he passed away and hes got a few matches on there.

[John87]

ok this really isnt a question about wrestling but kinda. does anyone know anything about the new WWE Anthology cd thats suppose to come out soon?

[Monkey Winchester]

The WWE anthology Cd came out back in 2002. It was a 3 disc set. The First Disc encompassed the 80's and early 90's. The second disc focused on the Attitude era. The third disc focused on the years of 2000-2002ish. I am sure you can still find it online or something. It is a good Set. I would get it if I was you.

If you mistyped and asked about the New Summerslam Anthology DVD set. That comes out sometime this year.

[klunderbunker]

Actually WWE is planning on Anthology II. It's more music, and as far as I know all that is known is either winter of this year or early 2009.

[Greg Grimes]

I have a question, did Stone Clod actually get along with Vince behind stage back during the attiutude era?

Similar question..
Does Randy Orton get along with John Cena..
I don't know if anyone knows the awnser to these questions or if they even have a good idea but I would just like to know.

[Monkey Winchester]

Yes Stone Cold got along with Vince Bacstage. Everything done in front of the curtain is for storyline purposes only.


Same with Cena and Orton. I have heard they are actually best friends in real life. I hate to break it to you. But most of what you see on TV is fake.

[Sparky]

What happend to Jonathon Coachmen.?

[Y 2 Jake]

Got a job with ESPN or whatever it's aclled, as a broadcaster.

I read somewhere that he's at home with his newborn & wife
He's still signed to WWE

What WWE Pay Per View got the most buys?(i.e most ordered on PPV)

[slickman123]

is it written in all the top wrestlers contracts that if they suffer an injury during a title run or title push they will win the belt as soon as they return? its happend countless of times! do the wwe legally have to put the belt back on them within at least a year of returning from injury?

No, I highly doubt it. They usually just do it because it is an unfortunate way to lose a title.

That would be WM 23.

How do the wrestlers feel about Vince McMahon being involved in angles ?

[BringBackDX]

Whilst reading an article, I saw this:

It's being reported that The Undertaker and Michelle McCool are officially a couple. The two are no longer keeping it a secret as both are very open about their relationship backstage.

Is this true or is someone just twisting my leg?

[Monkey Winchester]

It is true. They have actually been dating for some time now. Taker and his wife Sara split months ago. Michelle and Taker finally decided to make it official and announce it though.

[DJ]

How do the wrestlers feel about Vince McMahon being involved in angles ?


Sometimes they are pissed.McMahon shouldn't be taking up a spot that could be used to push people.Depends on the angle really.But they never tell McMahon.EVER.Cause they want to keep their job.

[Y 2 Jake]

How do the wrestlers feel about Vince McMahon being involved in angles ?

Nobody could say. Probably because no current wrestler on a WWE roster would speak out. I can't imagine most would care. He's better than them, he owns the company, and he was doing it long before most of the current roster were employed.

[shaunbaby]

Hi guys a friend of mine told me that Mick Foley's mandible claw, was something a serial killer used on his victims. Is it true?

He also said that it was some rock star that went crazy but, in my memory theres no rock star turned serial killer.

You've got a weird friend.The Mandible Claw basically clamps the jaw causing pain.But the killer would have to be very strong to kill somebody with it or even break a jaw.Maybe he had a knife with him or something :lmao:

But the backstory makes kinda sense with the mankind gimmick and all that.But then again would WWE Wanna harm their image using a move that killed sombody?

The mandible claw actually was used as a "murder weapon". Read Foleys book, have a nice day. He touches on it. Jim cornette was the one who suggested it too him, and it was a wrestler called dr sam shepard, the doctor the movie the fugitive is based on, he was accused of killing his wife with it (apparently) and was convicted and jailed, however the verdict was over turned, the guy went on to wrestle in a southern wrestling circuit and using his knowledge of human anatomy came up with the mandible claw

[simeon63]

Heres my question, I have laways been miffed by the ladder bumps, jumping off a high spot and landing on it, the average person would be laid up in a hospital for very a long time landing on a ladder like that, also I am including the part where Michaels head was smashed into a monitor. Are these stagged props, I mean how do you learn to land prefectly on a ladder back first from sveral feet in the air ?

These guys are trained professionals. They are trained to take those "sick" bumps. They are trained to take as little damage as possible from those bumps. They know what they're doing, but when they don't injuries happen. I can't tell you how they learn that as I've never been to a wrestling school, but there are obviously methods.

was hulk hogan really wwf champion for 4 years? if this is true no matter how popular he was didnt the fans get bored of it, was the belt not defended regulary is that why he kept it so long?

Yes.Hogan was champ for 4 years.Hogan was so over with the kiddies no one cared.And the belt was reguralry defended.But proably on Wrestlemanias and Saturday Nights Main Event.

Who has won the most matches overall in the WWE? (including by DQ)

[DJ]

Who has won the most matches overall in the WWE? (including by DQ)

Even House Shows?Its simply not possible.No one could say.But I'm willing to guess Its either one of the following-

Hulk Hogan

Undertaker

HHH

Im guessing any of them Since all 3 went on massive winning streaks during their WWE Careers.

[gonzagaE]

Why dont wrestlers use other wrestler finishing moves anymore in big matches? Back in the day it was not unlikely for the rock to pull off a stunner on austin, it happened in their wresltmania match and i think it adds well to a rivalry to taunt the other wreslters with their moves, it might also help cena out to get more then 6 moves under his belt. So yea the question is why dont wrestlers use others finishing moves anymore.

Because why do something you're not use too?

Example-

Your a good striker in football.Your winning 2-1.The coach puts you in as the Goal Keeper.Your not going to keep the lead are you?

Its pretty simple-they'll still get a pop if they do their finisher.Doing another.......well what happens if Taker isn't can't take a Tombstone Bump?He'll get injured.(Bad exmaple lol)

[slickman123]

why did brock lesnar win the wwe title so quickly ? he debuted before backlash i think and won it at summerslam thats like 4 months? im not saying he sucked but how could he win the major title that quickly?

[TheOneBigWill]

why did brock lesnar win the wwe title so quickly ? he debuted before backlash i think and won it at summerslam thats like 4 months? im not saying he sucked but how could he win the major title that quickly?

He debuted right after Wrestlemania. They wanted to push him as dominating, and make him a big deal. Thus, they gave him a Goldberg-like heel push.. and he won the title quickly.

[DeadmanInc.]

When WWF used Fake Diesel and Fake Razor Ramon, did they acknowledge that they were impostors or did they actually expect fans to believe it was really Kevin Nash/Scott Hall?

[gonzagaE]

kinda off topic but im going to the raw show in DC on the 28th and you guys just announced that they will b taping SNME, will this happen before or after the show, so i would have to show up like 2 hours early, or where kind i find this information.

[HBK-aholic]

Usually, the start time given on your ticket is the time anything being taped earlier also starts. For example, ECW used to be taped before Smackdown.

Show up at the time they say on your ticket, as that's when you're expected to be there. However, I don't expect anything to be taped AFTER the Raw main event, so everything else being taped will be taped beforehand.

[Slim Pickns]

When WWF used Fake Diesel and Fake Razor Ramon, did they acknowledge that they were impostors or did they actually expect fans to believe it was really Kevin Nash/Scott Hall?

Jim Ross announced that Diesel and Ramon were coming back to WWF. When the impostors showed up everyone booed. Ross then said, "I never said anything about Scott Hall or Kevin Nash coming back, I only said Diesel and Ramon." So, no they didn't try to fool the fans into thinking it was the same guys.

[Tim Tam]

Have Jim Ross or Jerry Lawler ever been heel?

[klunderbunker]

Lawler was heel for the most part of his time on commentary. Just in the last 3/4 years or so has he become the face he is now. Ross has been what he is now for just about the majority of his career. They've tried a few times to make him heel over the years, and it bombed. Bad. It's on youtube if you search Jim Ross heel.

[JHardy77]

Is John Cena and Mickie James a real couple?

[klunderbunker]

No they're not. It's all for storyline purposes. She dated Joey Mercury several years ago and last I heard was about to get married to Ken Doane (Kenny Dykstra).

Cena, no clue about, but no they're not together in real life.

[TM]

How long until Carlito comes back?

[klunderbunker]

Hard to say. Right now he's just waiting to be put on television. He's got some heat on him, but I think right now they're just waiting to have something to do with him. I'd say less than a month, but there's really not a direct answer.

[JHardy77]

Jeff Hardy has been only in 1 of the last 3 PPV's. Is the WWE still punishing him for his mistakes or is there just not a lot of work for him to do?

[phat_inallthegoodplaces]

i realized that i made an open ended question, so i'll fix that.


are they going to take the ecw championship and just call it the hardcore title? at least we'll get some decent ecw like wrestling matches...

[DJ]

Not enough to do.But since Matt is stuck on ECW now and Shelton ison SD! I wouldn't be surprised too see Jeff be working with Shelton soon.

[simpsons_fanatic742]

Where is Elijah Burke? I haven't heard his name in a while and I don't believe he has wrestled in a long time either.

[DubK101]

Can Someone tell me when Carlito is comin back ?

[IrishEnglishman24]

No idea for either. I'd assume as soon as creative gets a feud for either man to be involved in. With Burke there'll be time issues with several feuds ongoing. Carlito, it's more about not debuting too many new guys at once

[TheOneBigWill]

Where is Elijah Burke? I haven't heard his name in a while and I don't believe he has wrestled in a long time either.

While I can't (like Polley) explain when Burke is coming back for sure, or even if.. he's currently under-gone a gimmick change. Several photos of him with a new, gothic-like look have surfaced and it's believed he's calling himself "The Black Pope". For now, these are just rumors, short of someone actually having more proof, however that's what I've seen and heard.

[Darkshot77]

I'm just looking for a couple of opinions from guys who are experianced in these matters
Hypothetically would 2 massive (8-12) warring stables help the WWE, they could be tribranded so that way there is enough talent to go around. Would this make things more interesting or would it get "the same" too fast.

Since WWE owns WCW (Well they own all that was formerly...) will they ever put people into the Hall of Fame based on things they did in WCW - Notably Sting (and as a bonus... would they acknowledge his TNA time aswell?) and maybe even Goldberg? It's something that's kind of bugged me for a while, it would be nice if someone could clear this up for me.

They already put Ric Flair into the Hall of Fame based on his NWA and WCW work, so I'd say the answer is probably yes.

It's really undetermined whether or not they'd place anyone in the HoF merely for something they did in W.C.W., the N.W.A., A.W.A., or anywhere for that matter.

I think the fact that it's the "W.W.E." HoF would say no, however. I can't say with any type of guarantee, and some wrestlers who've entered their HoF have been notably known for their careers outside of the W.W.F./E. however who knows.

By the way.. Goldberg, in my personal opinion, does not warrant a HoF spot. Just sayin' (this isn't a discussion thread either, if you wish to debate me, PM me)

EDIT: Sly beat me to a response, and he's likely more right than I am. Especially since Flair's career is a lot better in other companies than the W.W.F./E.

[The Snake]

If a wrestler gets a contract termination after a "third strike" on the WWE Wellness Policy...

a) Does this mean they are not allowed to be in WWE again, or is there a time limit?
b) Is there then a limit on how long it is before they can wrestler for another company?
c) Do WWE get compensated for anything - Say if they lost a major star, which would affect merchandising, or if they had just signed a new contract with some nice bonuses/perks?
d) If they are a champion - Do they appear on TV to lose the title/be fired? (I know we have seen it for the 30/60 day suspensions, but what about terminations)

Just something quick - Is there a limit on how often I can ask questions or should I edit my posts instead of creating a second post? (I am thinking of these questions at different times, but I can see they may seem like semi-spam due to the closeness of them).

[Slyfox696]

If a wrestler gets a contract termination after a "third strike" on the WWE Wellness Policy...

a) Does this mean they are not allowed to be in WWE again, or is there a time limit?It just says they are terminated. I'm guessing that the WWE wouldn't hire them for at least a couple of years, but that is just speculation.
b) Is there then a limit on how long it is before they can wrestler for another company?It depends on the worker's contract. But yes, they probably would be under a 30, 60, or 90 day non-compete clause, as it seems to be written into most WWE contracts these days.
c) Do WWE get compensated for anything - Say if they lost a major star, which would affect merchandising, or if they had just signed a new contract with some nice bonuses/perks?No. It is a self-imposed policy, so any firings they do is completely on their own.
d) If they are a champion - Do they appear on TV to lose the title/be fired? (I know we have seen it for the 30/60 day suspensions, but what about terminations)I believe there is a clause that says the WWE can arrange for storyline plans before any penalties are given. Thus, the WWE could transfer the title, and then fire. But, I'd have to check on that one.

If you go to corporate.wwe.com, they have the policy listed there.

Vince will never recognize anyone who was in his competing business.Sting will never be in the WWE HOF and neither will Goldberg b/c he think's he's bigger than wrestlign as a whole.

[FTS]

THat's an opinion. There's a plan (as reported somewhere I can't remember) for a Sting retrospective, much like the one's for Ric Flair, The Rock, and Stone Cold. Plus the WWE airs old Starcade's and other WCW events on WWE 24/7, which means they acknowledge other companies. It also means that there are plans to put Sting into the Hall, because they have to promote it somehow, and it won't be in the ring.

Sting has to agree to be put in the HOF, before WWE can do so, I beleive this is the reason Owen has not been inducted yet, his wife, who would have to approve his induction, has said no (I think, I could be wrong)

Like it or not, for the most part the WWE gives those tickets out to local radio stations or such that are going to advertise the show. Also, scalpers that are in the know already have access to them, so it's tough. The worst case scenario is getting seats in the fifth row or so. I've been to a few dozen events or so, and always manage to get good seats, not front row, but on the ramp, which is just as good.

[Esteban Ochocinco]

When is Gregory Helms gonna return?

There was a report on the newsite a few weeks back stating that Helms was "ready to go", what that means, no one is sure of. The next thing will be, is if the WWE has anything for him. He's coming off of serious neck surgery, so the WWE is going to take their time with him.

If you pay for tickets, its for BOTH ECW and SD!, no just one or the other. thats the whole damn reason they travel together, becuase ECW couldnt sell a respectable amount of tickets

what happened to kevin thorn?
elijah burke?
big daddy v?
the boogyman?
DH Smith?

[jpfizzle]

They're all still around I believe, Kevin Thorn wrestles dark matches occasionaly, Elijah Burke just isn't getting pushed at all as of late, most recent news concerning him was his website got hacked, DH SMITH got drafted to smackdown but Isn't really getting anywhere, he struggles for TV spots, Boogeyman is still around but with a gimmick like that you can't really have much going, dont know if they will bring him back , big daddy V got taken off TV to loose weight I believe.

[Rditri09]

am i wrong or was the boogeyman a decent wrestler couldnt they bring him back without his worthless gimick now that he has his teeth fixed?

[noriah47]

Does anyone know when ECW is on in Canada and what station carries it? I can never find it when I search my guide.

Check Global, Friday night / Saturday morning at Midnight. I know that at the very least, it's on Global BC at that time. Otherwise, you can always try the internet stream.

Lashley- Asked for released, training for MMA, and if that doesnt work more than likely TNA. He has a MMA fight later this month.

Sandman- I believe was released, and now having drunk fights.

Torrie- Released, Had Back surgury.

Candice- Recovering from re injured injury.

Carlito- Officially buried in the WWE after Triple h comments. But he got drafted to Smackdown, hasnt ben on TV since.

@ hardy fan:

Last thing I read (which was a while ago) was when Carlito said Triple H marrying Steph was a great carreer move. He also went on to say he's not disputing he liked Steph genuinly but being married to the bosses daughter definitly gave him a boost

[klunderbunker]

What Wrestlemania got the lowest buyrate?

If I remember correctly, Wrestlemania 13, which was at the height of WCW's reign.

[RatedRFan]

what wrestlers is afa jr? im a big fan (never miss raw and SD!) and i dont know....

He's never been on WWE tv that I know of. He's still in FCW.

Does anyone know the time-table for Orton's return? I see a lot of people putting him in upcoming angles...but it doesn't seem like he's been out for enough time.

[klunderbunker]

WZ reported that he wasn't hurt as badly as previously thought and had been cleared by the doctors so I'm assuming that he's just waiting for creative to send him in.

[Matt hardy fan1999]

Does anyone know what happened to rey mysterio? ever since he got drafted to raw i have seen him only one time. WHERE IS REY?

[Dark Blaze]

Does anyone know the time-table for Orton's return? I see a lot of people putting him in upcoming angles...but it doesn't seem like he's been out for enough time.

Well, Randy has said in an interview that the injury wasn't as bad as the doctors originally thought and also they were using some magnet technology or whatever that helps set the bone in place thus speeding things up a bit.

And as for Rey, well I read once that he wasn't completely healed yet, and was experiencing some twinges or whatever, don't know how true it is, so they're just giving him an extra rest. Either that or WWE doesn't have shit for him at the moment.

[AFC1986]

When did Kurt Angle start using the ankle lock in WWE?

[timostag]

O.k a bit of an old skool question...

Back in the days of the attitde era when stone cold was ran over was it always ment to be rikishi who ran him over or did wwe just pull his name out of a hat?! it never worked for me, and I heard that kennedy was ment to be vinces son but they changed it due to him being injured/suspended and thought if it was the same thing with the stone cold story?

[Spunky]

How old is MVP?

TIMOSTAG:

I dont know if it planned or if it was luck of the draw, but Triple H told us that, He let Kishi dance into our heart's, If kishi ran over Stone Cold, so take how ever you want.

Montel Vontavious Porter is 34 years old. Turning 35 years old this year.

[Tastycles]

When did Kurt Angle start using the ankle lock in WWE?

I'm not completely certain but I can't remember him using it before his feud with Benoit in 2001. He couldn't have used it till well into 2000, because it had been Ken Shamrock's fiisher until he left in late 99. As I said, I'm not certain.

[Dilated_Junkie]

I was watching the rocks new dvd and they showed a clip of him mocking stone cold for saying what, in a real whiny voice wha wha wha what?

Anybody have a link for that whole promo? youtube or otherwise!

Thanks!

[Uncle Sam]

Did they ever promote some sort of Foley/Angle feud? Sam's poor memory strikes again.

[klunderbunker]

There was never a match between them. Mick did put Angle through a bit of hell as commissioner, but I don't ever remember there being a big match between the two. Angle showed up as Foley was in the last year of his full time career so there never realy was enough time for one.

[Tim Tam]

Have Taker and Michaels ever been in a feud?

[DJ]

Have Taker and Michaels ever been in a feud?

Er Yeah.If you remember the first hell in a cell was between them(the idea was Shawn kept running away from taker thus taker making a chamber of horros which he could not escape from.Also their match at the Royal Rumble where Michaels injured his back.So easily to answer your question-Yes.

[Monkey Winchester]

Have Taker and Michaels ever been in a feud?

Yes. Incidently it was in a match with The Undertaker that Michaels had his back problem start up in. I believe it was the Casket Match between the two at The Royal Rumble in 1998. But yes they have feuded before.

[Tim Tam]

Sorry my minds like shot at the moment. Thanks.

[ZCDarrah]

How many ppvs did the invasion angle cover? Let me define it better, besides the 'invasion' ppv, what following ppvs had alliance vs wwe matches, and which ones.

[klunderbunker]

The invasion continued through Summerslam, Unforgiven, No Mercy and ended at Survivor Series. There were matches on each of these shows mainly for titles, but the Survivor Series was mainly title unification matches and the match of survival at the end.

K, my last question didn't get answered, but I got a new one. Pat Patterson was the first IC champion, who was the second IC champion?

[Joaquim Akaem]

Easy enough to find out, thay have the title histories on WWE.com.

Ken Patera was the second IC champion
Ken Patera's first-and-only Intercontinental Championship reign started on April 21, 1980 when he defeated the first champion Pat Patterson in New York City. The strong man went on to hold the belt for close to eight months before losing it to Pedro Morales.

[Big Sexy]

What is Dude Loves win/loss record? TV and payperview only, not houseshows.

According to oww his record was 9-4-1

[Showtime 24/7]

K, watched RoyalRumble 1997 the other day, who are the two wrestlers who played the fake Razor Ramon and Diesel? Man how lame is that, WWE using fake name wrestlers in a real match like the RR.

[HBK-aholic]

Richard (Rick) Bogner was Razor Ramon and I think it was Kane who was Diesel at the time.

[texas freebird]

Richard (Rick) Bogner was Razor Ramon and I think it was Kane who was Diesel at the time.

It was indeed Kane who played Diesel. Kane has also played the part of the demented dentist Isaac Yankem dds who had a brief feud with Bret Hart. Just as an aside and to further compound the theory that im an anorak, the fake Kane was played by Drew Harkinson who is now Festus.

Uhh, I've learned hardway that this thread is for closed question about WWE and not random joke questions. You'd best do something about it before you receive a sharp reprimand.

[Showtime 24/7]

You tell him Hardcore Kennedy, now on to my question. Which wrestler has eliminated the most opponents from elimination chamber matches alltime and how many people has he eliminated? And just to see if you did your homework, who were the people he eliminated and at what elimination chamber shows?

[Uncle Sam]

As a non-wrestler, Mick Foley lacks a no compete clause, correct?

[klunderbunker]

I'm pretty sure he has the 90 rule also as for TV and DVDs.

[Tastycles]

You tell him Hardcore Kennedy, now on to my question. Which wrestler has eliminated the most opponents from elimination chamber matches alltime and how many people has he eliminated? And just to see if you did your homework, who were the people he eliminated and at what elimination chamber shows?

I think this might be a trivia question, and you know the answer, which I think is verboten in this thread, but I'll answer assuming it isn't. Chris Jericho has eliminated 6 people from the Elimination Chamber.

He eliminated Booker T and Kane at Survivor Series 2002, he eliminated Kevin Nash at summerslam 2003, Edge at New Year's Revolution 2005 and JBL and Umaga at No Way Out earlier this year.

No, it wasn't a trivia question. I was just thinking about it and was really curious about who eliminated the most people. Thanks for the answer Tastycles. Next question, of all the Last man Standing matches the WWE has had, which one went the longest and who were the two wrestlers involved in the match?

[DJ]

I think Shawn Michaels vs HHH went over 20 minutes.I googled "last man standing match" and it didn't tell me so give or take.

[Starchild]

Here's an interesting one that would take some digging to find out:

We know that Kane has the record for most eliminations in a Royal Rumble with 10 at the 2001 event. That's actually quite impressive...a third of the entrants by himself.
But anyway, who has the most career Royal Rumble eliminations. And I don't mean just some pre-Rumble battle royal or Raw or Smackdown or anything like that. I mean the actual ppv event itself. Who has the most?

[Showtime 24/7]

I'm pretty sure it's gotta be Kane too. I know he has the record for most consecutive RR appearances and is second to HBK in total appearance. He actually got 11 eliminations in 2001 (and sorta half of one for scareing the crap out of Drew Carey who eliminated himself) If its not him, my next choice is Austin. I can't get the exact totals cause my computer is acting up.

“Stone Cold” Steve Austin holds the record for most eliminations overall, having tossed 36 Superstars over the top rope. - wwe.com

I've been looking but can't seem to find it; what were the cards for both Eddie Guerrero tribute shows? And how about the Christ Benoit tribute show as well?

[DJ]

Eddie's RAW Tribute.

The Big Show & Kane beat MNM
Kurt Angle beat Shelton Benjamin
Rey Mysterio Jr. beat Shawn Michaels
Melina wins the Diva Battle Royal
Eugene beat Simon Dean
Ric Flair beat William Regal
John Cena beat Randy Orton by DQ


SD! Tribute.
Matt Hardy beat Carlito
Animal & Heidenreich beat Lance Cade & Trevor Murdoch
Chavo Guerrero beat JBL
Juventud Guerrera wins the cruiserweight battle royal
Chris Benoit beat Triple H

Can't seem to find Benoits.....wasn't that just promos?

[Dilated_Junkie]

I've been looking but can't seem to find it; what were the cards for both Eddie Guerrero tribute shows? And how about the Christ Benoit tribute show as well?

The show was cancelled for Benoit, they just had vince come out in an empty arena and let the viewers know what was happening. Then JR and King where at their usual position introducing his best matches and pre recorded tributes from the talent!

[Showtime 24/7]

K, Undertaker has the best Wrestlemania record. So, who has the worst Wrestlemania record with a minimum 7 matches?

[klunderbunker]

I'm pretty sure that's Big Show who has never won a match in 7 tries, and I think Tito Santana is tied with him on that.

[The Snake]

Pretty random question: Who won the first match in WWE? (After the name change)

[klunderbunker]

That would be Jazz who beat Trish Stratus on May 6, 2002.

[The Snake]

Another one - In WWF/E, has there ever been a match participated with over 30 competitors in it?

[klunderbunker]

Yes actually there has been. It was on either Superstars or Wrestling Challenge but there was a 40 man battle royal in the early/mid 90s.

[captian spanky]

ok i have a question. when brian kendrick first came to wwe as spanky, he seemed to get over on velocity fairly well to me. but then he just disapeared and comes back as brian kendrick. can anyone tell my why he left and where he was. thx

[I.R.S was ace]

I am sure he got released and then went to ROH.

[Lee]

ok i have a question. when brian kendrick first came to wwe as spanky, he seemed to get over on velocity fairly well to me. but then he just disapeared and comes back as brian kendrick. can anyone tell my why he left and where he was. thx

Kendrick left to go to ZERO01, he then had a brief stint in TNA and then went to ROH before returning to WWE.

His excuse for initially leaving was "It was a lot of fun and an honor to be there. It's just that what I wanted out of wrestling at this time, they weren't offering. I could be in Kurt Angle's spot, but it still wouldn't be what I'm looking for. "What I'm looking for is a chance to wrestle and to wrestle for a while and to tell stories in matches; ten, fifteen, twenty, thirty minutes, whatever it might be," he said. That's not really what they (WWE) specialize in. The matches are short and sweet. They're more focused on entertaining people with shenanigans, bikini contests, people getting sprayed with stuff or screwing a corpse, which is fine. It's funny stuff, it's entertaining I guess. But I'm 24 years old and while I can still move around, it's not what I'm looking for."

[wrestlemania]

Who taught Vince and Shane Mcmahon how to wrestle?

[klunderbunker]

Shane was trained by Vince, Patteron and Brisco. Not sure on Vince, but I'd guess Patterson and Brisco as well.

[The Snake]

I think I am right in saying every WWE title has a 30 day no-compete clause, right?

Does this mean that if they don't wrestle for 30 days in a title defence it is removed or is it that they have to be able to wrestle (medically) during the next 30 days or it is removed from them?

[TheOneBigWill]

Does this mean that if they don't wrestle for 30 days in a title defence it is removed or is it that they have to be able to wrestle (medically) during the next 30 days or it is removed from them?

I've always been under the impression that the "30-day compete clause" was a work. Some wrestler's go over 30 days without defending their Championships. (the Tag titles, Intercontinental and Women's have all went at least 30 days on more than one occasion within the previous set of years I'm sure)

So my guess is, it's only valid when they want it to be. But if I were to guess, it'd be linked to any and every title.

[The Snake]

As Night of Champions 2008 - Was the Tag Team Championship Match such that Cody Rhodes defeated himself (technically)? I mean, the bell was rung when Cody was on Hardcore Holly's team, so it could only have bean either a handicap in favour of Holly or a 2v2 with 1 wrestler on both sides?

I've run this one through my head a few times, and Im not quite sure "officially" how this match worked. Of course Cody has had 3 title reigns, so he must have defeated himself to get another reign?

[Milkyway!]

Is there anyway i will get to see wcw back???? i know vince owns everything about wcw now (which is why this belongs in the wwe ask a question thread imo) but, do you actually think he would be willing to use it like he did ecw?? (god i hope not) what i mean is actually give the show back to the ones that ran it back in the day (im not really sure who did other than russo/bissoff, hey, who ran wcw?? while were at this question game) and let the wcw/wwe wars re-start but at the same time, vince gets ALL the money....from both shows hes just not running one....i know they tried this with ecw and it didnt work, but i truly think it could work is wcw what do you guys think?

[Y 2 Jake]

Closed questions only.

[timostag]

Who owns the character KANE? Is it wwe or Glen Jacobs?

Just I was thinking the other day that Kane could have an amasing impact (no pun intended) on TNA and with him being about 41 TNA schedule should suit him better, but would it be possible?

[klunderbunker]

WWE owns it.

[Showtime 24/7]

Who has won the most King of the Ring matches in their career without actually winning the KOTF? How many KOTR's did they participate in and how many wins did they get?

[TheOneBigWill]

Who has won the most King of the Ring matches in their career without actually winning the KOTF? How many KOTR's did they participate in and how many wins did they get?

Without checking, I'd have to say Kurt Angle just because he won the 2000 King of the Ring, and made it to the finals of the 2001 K.O.T.R. I'll check for further detail and get back to you. (in this same post)

EDIT:

Doing a rough skim of the results, including Qualifying matches..

Kurt Angle - 9
X-Pac/1-2-3 Kid - 7

[Showtime 24/7]

Yo thanks for the answer BigWill, but I think you missed one thing in my question
Who has won the most King of the Ring matches in their career without actually winning the KOTF?

No worries man, you got X-pac down there too. I know he hasn't won. Thanks for the answer.

Now, who has the most WWE title reigns? all titles the WWE has ever had are included except the Hardcore title. So, to put it in another way, who has the most title reigns (WWE, WHC, ECW, IC, US, Tag (both titles), European and Cruiserweight/Lightweight) and how many total title reigns did he have?

[Savage1]

Does anyone know the nature of Vince's beef with Randy Savage? I just read that he was pulled from the upcoming Legends game and I am pretty pissed. Vince already pulled the dvd about him that was supposed to come out!

[klunderbunker]

Nothing has ever been flat out proven, but the main idea is that allegedly Savage had a fling with Stephanie when she was very young.

[podegarudo]

do the wwe have to acknowledge NWA title reigns, i know they use them for ric flair, but for example have they mentioned r-truths 2 nwa reigns?

[Lee]

do the wwe have to acknowledge NWA title reigns, i know they use them for ric flair, but for example have they mentioned r-truths 2 nwa reigns?

Probably not with it being in TNA at the time, WWE tend not to actually acknowledge TNA.

An interesting point as well, I was just looking at R-Truth's bio and there's no mentioning of him ever being K-Kwick (2 time hardcore champion!). they're pushing him as somenew guy, who sees WWE as 'the light.' I'm not sure if that's the case with commentator team saying anything, but according to wwe.com nothing.

[The Snake]

@ David_Showtime_Cougar

Edge has had 23 - Which I'm sure is only beaten by Hardcore Wrestlers (Raven, Crash etc.) in terms of overall WWE titles.

[Matt Phoenix]

Did Brock Lesnar ever go one on one with HHH?

[klunderbunker]

Unless it was at a house show, no. They were in a triple threat with the Rock at a British ppv.

[WWEaddict809]

Are manu, Rhodes, and DiBiase a team now or was it just a one night thing.

[klunderbunker]

The really big rumor is that they'll be joining Orton as a 2nd generation stable.

[Macca The WidowMaker]

Has Takeshi Morishima been given a contract yet, or are they still testing him out in dark matches?

[klunderbunker]

WWE said that they didn't like his look or condition, so he's not going to be signed.

[chasingamy]

I'm curious about who and when the last time someone actually won the world title back in their rematch.

1. Who and when was the last time the WWE title was won in a rematch?

2. Who and when was the last time the WHC title was won in a rematch?

3. Who and when was the last time the ECW title was won in a rematch?

[klunderbunker]

WWE title would be Orton beating HHH later that night in the last man standing match at No Mercy.

WHC would be HHH winning from Shawn a month later in 3 Stages of Hell at Armageddon

ECW hasn't happened in the modern incarnation of the title.

[Tim Tam]

I've got a question, who were the double champions in WWE and WWF, and which titles did they hold?

[TheOneBigWill]

I've got a question, who were the double champions in WWE and WWF, and which titles did they hold?

By double, do you mean who has held multiple titles at once?

Without checking, off the top of my head I can name..

Kurt Angle - Intercontinental/European
British Bulldog - European/Tag Team
Owen Hart - Intercontinental/Tag Team
Ultimate Warrior - Heavyweight/Intercontinental
X-Pac - Light Heavyweight/Cruiserweight
Jeff Jarrett - Intercontinental/European
D-Lo Brown - Intercontinental/European (I believe)
Shawn Michaels - Heavyweight/European

[Tim Tam]

Yes, but I actually meant who has held both a World title and another title at the same time? And also, has anyone held three different championships at once?

[TheOneBigWill]

Lance Storm - W.C.W. - Hardcore, United States & Cruiserweight.

[AFC1986]

Yes, but I actually meant who has held both a World title and another title at the same time?

Stone Cold held both the WWE title and tag-team championship belts at the same time in 2001

[klunderbunker]

Also John Cena I think a year and a half ago was tag champions with HBK.

[The Shocktor]

Stupid ad guy...

I have a question. I know it's a dumb one, but whatever. What exactly happened to Gregory Helms? Like, where exactly did he go?

[Pippen loves M_F]

does any one know where boogyman is. i found him entertaining and really liked him

[klunderbunker]

He's being used less by WWE. He was out with an injury but is now healed up. He's waiting until creative has something for him. From what I understand he's a character that they feel can only be used once in awhile.

[Tim Tam]

Well first he was recovering from a calf injury, and then he got his teeth replaced. Right now he is just inactive and they said they would only use him limitly for backstage promos.

[Pippen loves M_F]

oh ok so he is basically just not wrestlign and will probably be released?

[klunderbunker]

More or less. He's sitting at home collecting a paycheck. He's eligible to return at any time though.

[Big Beck-ah Roethlisberger]

oh ok so he is basically just not wrestlign and will probably be released?

He isn't active due too injuries. I believe he is still under contract. So he could be seen on TV but not at the moment.

Who decides what wrestler should be pushed? what do they look at in a wrestler?

[Mighty NorCal]

Depends on what company you want to know. The creative/booking teams pick who they want to push, with Vince over seeing all of it. Everything goes through vince in the end.

And they look at marketability, and work rate. Wrestling is about making money. SO they try to figure out the guys who can make them the most money.

[Blue Chipper]

Did they ever use fake blood in the WWE/F (with the exception of blood coming from the mouth, that was obviously mostly fake), or was it always done by "blading"?

[Mighty NorCal]

WWE guys all blade from what I know. If you know what to look for, you willl see them doing it. Pretty much all wrestlers in all promotions blade, its about as common as a headlock from what I understand.

[The Shocktor]

They definitely use fake blood. Sometimes. I saw a video on Youtube once of a referee slipping a blood packet under the hand of Mr. Kennedy. You couldn't actually see the packet, but it's obvious what he did.

[Mighty NorCal]

They definitely use fake blood. Sometimes. I saw a video on Youtube once of a referee slipping a blood packet under the hand of Mr. Kennedy. You couldn't actually see the packet, but it's obvious what he did.

He was probably slipping him a razor. they use very small ones. Kennedy may have forgot his, or lost it during the match.

[Harthan]

On the October 10 episode of Smackdown, a vignette aired for some sort of insane clown type wrestler named "Kizarny". Google has nothing but a myspace with no information. Wikipedia has nothing. Searching this forum didn't turn up one result.

Who is this guy?

[Monkey Winchester]

I saw that too. I'm pretty sure it has something to do with Halloween coming up. It wouldnt make any sense for them to have an insane clown running around after that.

[Harthan]

I saw that too. I'm pretty sure it has something to do with Halloween coming up. It wouldnt make any sense for them to have an insane clown running around after that.

You're probably right. I wonder whether he's actually a wrestler or if he'll be a one time gimmick.

Smackdown has further confounded me this night, and thus I pose a second question...in that Khali handicap match..was that Hardcore Holly? I swear it was him, really. WWE is listing the trio as "3 locals" but I swear it was him. Not the guy that Khali chopped, the guy who ran out of the ring.

Wow, that's strange. I didn't see anything like that. Do I smell a TNA/Suicide Rip-off gimmick?

EDIT: Come to think of it, I got the Australian semi-cut version so that would perhaps explain things. Oh yeah, and there's no way in hell that was Hardcore Holly. He looked more like a taller Crash Holly...

[DrFeelgood624]

I only saw the clown for a second i thought it was Diamond Dallas Page, maybe he'll have a Halloween feud with Bogeyman, and maybe a match with Doink.

Don't think the jobber was Hardcore Holly.

The gentleman that appeared in the vignette during SmackDown! is a FCW wrestler named "The Carnival Freak" Sinn Bowdee. He appears in the November issue of WWE Magazine, where they take a look at some developmental talent.

Unfortunately, I don't have much more info than that.

Does the Undertaker have creative control?

[TM]

Some say he has a huge saying in what he does in the ring and for story lines. I don't think he has anything in his contract to do it, I think anyways. But being in the company, as well as the main event, being able to walk out at any moment, while being able to be one of the most over wrestlers in the company. This is the reason why he will never lose at Wrestlemania, unless he wants to. If he wants to be champ, he will be champ. If he wants time off, he gets time off.

What was the real reason bruiser body got murdered?

[Slyfox696]

What was the real reason bruiser body got murdered?In short, because he was a real jerk. Constantly stiffing promoters on deals, not doing what he was asked, no showing, etc. He finally went down to Puerto Rico, which if you read any wrestling books, is a not a good place for wrestling as it is basically mob rule and you're lucky to get out with your life.

Apparently he did someone wrong down in Puerto Rico once, and got his comeuppance in a shower. While I couldn't tell you the specific incident, just know that it happened because Brody was not a very honest man and was completely unprofessional.

There is a book out there that I want to get some day about Bruiser Brody, just haven't picked it up yet.

What year (and date) did the Undertaker first win the WWE Championship?

[klunderbunker]

His first title reign started Nov 27, 1991, but if you're looking for the first reign when it was actually called the WWE Championship, May 19, 2002.

Did the Undertaker ever wrestle Eddie Guerrero one on one?

[klunderbunker]

If he did it wasn't ever on tv or PPV.

[tokenjew22]

I remember when Kurt Angle first came into the WWE he did a series of black and white promos.

Can anyone tell me what they were about, and maybe even provide a video link?

[Pippen loves M_F]

why did scott steiner leave wwe?

[klunderbunker]

He was injured and WWE chose not to resign him.

[Pippen loves M_F]

oh ok just like kevin nash. correct?

[klunderbunker]

Correct. Both were injured and WWE just chose they weren't worth paying for their limited revenue.

[Pippen loves M_F]
