I read once where in ECW the legend of throwing metal chairs in the middle of the ring took place. How did this happen? Who's idea was it? How often did it happen? Any idea when it took place the first time?
It all started on July 16, 1994, when the Funks were wrestling Public Enemy in a barbed wire match. Terry Funk yelled for the fans to throw him chairs, and the fans responded with a slew of chairs flying into the ring. It happened a few more times, but it wasn't something many in ECW were fond of, since it obviously put fans in a pretty dangerous position. It looked cool on TV, but for the fans in the front rows, it was pretty scary!
I certainly feel the three of them would get a nod at some point, with Trish being the most likely to get in first. However, WWE is still working on putting 80's stars in, so it will probably be more than five years before it happens.
Where were the nWo, Scott Steiner and Mick Foley during the whole Invasion Storyline in 2001?
Mick Foley was retired, and Scott Steiner and other NWO members (Hall and Nash, for example) were collecting on guaranteed contracts from Time Warner that they would have had to give up (or have WWE purchase) in order to go work for WWE at that point.
Imagine if James Mitchell became the JJ Dillon of Legacy.
I'm a huge fan of Jim Mitchell, and think he would make a great mouthpiece for a number of talents, but not Legacy. Cody Rhodes is a great talker, Ted DiBiase is a good talker and Randy Orton has made great strides (some weeks) in his promos. They don't need a mouthpiece.
Do you know if WWE has any plans on using any of the Divas in their movie projects? Even if its something like them playing the love interest of the male superstar?
I have heard no plans for that, and I think WWE would actually refrain from putting two wrestlers in a movie together, since WWE wants the public to see their films as being more than "wrestling movies".
