Backstage altercations, beef and any other REAL drama.
You guys seem to raqlly know the inside and outs of Pro Wrestling, I really dug reading that on how much of a beast Haku was. Could you guys share any other insider tidbits that was awsome.

Re: Backstage altercations, beef and any other REAL drama.
hmmm, off the top of my head...
- Scott Steiner used to rage a lot in WCW, he got into it with Bill Watts, DDP, and made Ric Flair cry
- The Nasty Boys got into it with Scott Hall backstage in WCW because they said he stiffed them with a chair, when Nash heard he threatened them with a baseball bat and and threatened to have them fired (they were fired shortly after)
- Bret hart and HBK had a fight backstage right before king of the ring 1997 I think, Bret Hart pulled out a chunk of Shawn's hair lol
- Roddy Piper had an altercation with Kevin Nash in WCW but no one fought
- Paul Orndorff kicked Vader's ass in WCW
- Sid and Arn Anderson had a bloddy incident at a hotel in Germany, Sid stabbed Arn with scissors numerous times
- Dynamite Kid used to pick on the Rougeaus, and Jacques eventually punches Dynamite with a fist full of quarters and knocked all his teeth out
- Goldberg and Jericho had a scuffle in WWE, as did Kurt Angle and Eddie Guerrero
- The Nasty Boys kicked Ken Shamrock's ass way back in the day

And shaved off Hall's eyebrows during the WWF days when he passed out wasted.
Bret and Anvil also gave Vince the Hart Attack at a bar once when Vince was pissed drunk. The Legion of Doom gave him the Doomsday Device but it was a soft one with Vince being caught before hitting the ground. Someone talked the Hart Foundation into giving Vince the Hart Attack (may have been Vince himself, actually) and Bret actually clotheslined him for real and Vince smashed his head on the floor.

At ECW One Night Stand, the first one, during the WWE-ECW brawl JBL legit beat up the Blue Meanie.

Re: Backstage altercations, beef and any other REAL drama.
One of the reasons that Chris Benoit left WCW was he had stolen Kevin Sullivans wife(Woman from WCW). Benoit left after Kevin Sullivan was put in charge of WCW

I don't think anyone likes JBL. But apparently Meanie had some of that coming. He'd been talking smack about JBL on the internet for a while before that and when they had the showdown he was goading him. Even Danny Doring said Meanie had it coming.
Also, one of my favorites is Batista getting his ass kicked by Booker T

Re: Backstage altercations, beef and any other REAL drama.
Heard of a couple that haven't been mentioned.
-During the Ultimate Warrior/Rick Rude program, Rude came back after the match and asked Warrior to "lighten up" a bit. Warrior got right in Rude's face and said, "I don't have to, because I'm the Warrior." Rude knocked him silly with one punch and walked away.
-Angle vs Lesner- Not really a fight, but a friendly challenge of who could take down whom. Not surprising who won, but it's still impressive given the size of that Lesnar beast. WINNER: Angle

Re: Backstage altercations, beef and any other REAL drama.
^^ Just to add on the Angle/Lesnar story. I remember Tazz talking about going on the road with those two and how they were the most intensely competitive people he'd ever met. They would literally compete over everything, who could eat the most even who could burp the loudest.

Re: Backstage altercations, beef and any other REAL drama.
Read a LOOOOONG thread on sherdog with this type of stuff in it about a year ago. I'll see if I can find it. Had lots of stuff about Haku/Meng.
Edit: really easy to find, it's stickied even. http://www.sherdog.net/forums/f44/pro-w ... tc-985140/

Re: Backstage altercations, beef and any other REAL drama.
Wow thats crazy that Angle could take down Brock, how awsome would Angle be in MMA, I bet he could cut to MW and give Silva a run for his money. He is a "Gold Medalist".

Re: Backstage altercations, beef and any other REAL drama.
The mention of William Regal refusing to sell to Goldberg in the sherdog thread reminded me of some similar stories.
Hacksaw Jim Duggan refused to sell to Berlyn (Alex Wright) when they debuted that charachter. Hardcore Holly was notorious for being super stiff with debuting wrestlers, Randy Orton spoke out against Holly calling him unprofessional among many other terms.
Speaking of Orton many of you probably know the story with him and Kennedy/Anderson, he also similarly complained about Kofi Kingston which is why Kingston's push stalled.
Also, a couple years ago MVP was on his way to being a legit main eventer. He had just finished a nearly year long reign with the US title. Then he was being tested under WWE's random drug testing program and he berated the drug tester. Saying something along the lines of 'What kind of man collects someone's piss for a living.' This is what led to the losing streak and his subsequent burial. I've always found this story a bit funny, because MVP was buried more than guys who've actually tested positive under this program like Edge and Randy Orton.

I know Angle has made mentions in the past of his desire to do MMA, but Dana White said he wouldn't touch Kurt with a 10 foot pole because of his frequent neck injuries. Kurt's also 41.
I do think that if MMA was as big in 1996-1997 as it is now, I think its possible perhaps even likely that Kurt would've gone that route instead of pro wrestling,
