Wrestling Trivia

"Macho Man" Randy Savage defeated "Million Dollar Man" Ted DiBiase in the WWF Championship Tournament Final at WrestleMania IV to win the vacant WWF Championship, but how and why was the title vacated in the first place?

In Feburary of 1988, Hulk Hogan was the WWF champion. In a title defense against Andre the Giant, Andre pinned Hogan. Although Hogan clearly kicked out, the referee kept counting and he counted to 3 awarding Andre the belt. At the time, the Hebners were heels. Andre immediately gave Ted DiBiase the belt and Jack Tunney vacated the belt and made the tournament at Wrestlemania IV.

Sounds pretty accurate to me, so, fire away DJ!

Before Sid Eudy(aka Sid, Sycho Sid) came to the WWE, he competed under a different name. What was the name he used?

[Luke]

It depends which one you're talking about DJ, other than being called Sid, Sid Justice and Sycho Sid in WWE, he used various names in other wrestling promotions:

Lord Humongous
The Vicious Warrior
The Millennium Man
Sid Vicious

However, "The Millennium Man" was a post-WWE moniker by which Sid referred to himself in WCW, so I'm guessing you're referring to one of the other three. Again, "The Vicious Warrior" was more of a pseudonym rather than an actual character name, so the most likely two possibilities are Lord Humongous, which he used in the really early part of his wrestling career in the CWF and CWA, or Sid Vicious, which he used when he debuted in the NWA/WCW. So....

Lord Humongous or Sid Vicious.

I was looking for Lord Humongous, which you have listed. You're on a roll man. Ask away our leader

Which two wrestlers, currently WWE employees, once held the SMW Tag Team Championship together?

[Dan]

I was tempted to say Lance Storm and Chris Jericho but then I remembered Lance Storm is no longer employed by the WWE, so it has to be Kane aka Unibomb and Al Snow.

[MinistryTaker]

Is it Al Snow and Unibomb (now known as Kane I believe)?

Edit - Dammit Dan!! Stealing my thunder!

[Dan]

LOL, just beat you to it MT.

[Luke]

LOL, just beat you to it MT.

Hahaha! God, Dan got one over on MT again! It must've literally been a matter of seconds seeing as both your posts are recorderd at 4:26 pm! Poor MT!

It is indeed Al Snow and Kane. Over to you boss....

[Dan]

What famous wrestling angle was believed to be a shoot for so long only to be revealed as a complete work? I need the names of the people involved, the match that resulted from it and the promotion it was held in.

[MinistryTaker]

Chris Benoit stealing Kevin Sullivan's wife, the match was Benoit vs Sullivan in a falls count anywhere match and it took place in WCW.

Just a guess.....

[Dan]

Not the one I'm looking for MT, I should have been more precise but that's hard when I'm trying to make the questions more difficult. I will tell you that the angle happened in the 1980s.

[Luke]

Chris Benoit stealing Kevin Sullivan's wife, the match was Benoit vs Sullivan in a falls count anywhere match and it took place in WCW.

Just a guess.....

"It's good but it's not right!" Ah, who else remembers goold ol' Roy Walker from Catchphrase....? Not just me is it?

Well that was a good guess MT but the wrong answer. Well I'm completely stumped.

A famous shoot angle in the 1980s that was revealed not be a shoot but an elaborate work.... Hmm....

I'll be back!!

[Casper]

I think you should do something else or give us another clue bcus were all stumped dan LoL

[Dan]

I'm wondeirng if anyone has even heard of this shoot angle now?

Here's another clue. One of the men involved in this angle is currently on Raw, the other sadly died a while ago and was not a professional wrestler.

[Dan]

Still nobody knows the answer. I'll give two more clues, if no one gets it then I'll ask a new question.

One of the people involved was Jerry Lawler and the promotion it occured in was Memphis.

[Gothic_Princess]

I dont know if this is right but is is Lawers Son, I dont know his name.

I think I got it. Jerry Lawler as we all know, is the father of Brian Christopher aka Grand Master Sexy. Brian was supposed to be part of a gay wedding with fellow superstar Scott Taylor aka Scotty 2 Hotty. There was no match and it took place in WWE.

That's not it DJ, remember it took place in the 1980s, in the Memphis promotion not WWE and involved someone who was not a wrestler and is now dead.
