WTF?[edit]

who turned this article into a ShockMaster tribute? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 74.235.162.12 (talk) 20:29, 20 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

The Internet, of course. InedibleHulk (talk) 05:12, 27 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Removal of some personal details[edit]

"Ottman now lives in Florida operating his own truck for a transport company out of Mondovi, Wisconsin, driving freight over the road. Former wrestler Perry Saturn is an employee."

Link#1 was confirming Florida, but Fred as safety manager, not trucking. No mention was made of Perry Saturn, since nobody knows where Saturn is now. MJ56003 (talk) 02:37, 28 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Shockmaster. Flair utters line attributed to Booker T.[edit]

The Nature Boy Ric Flair uttered the line "Who is this motherfucker?". It is clear when paying close attention to the audio as Ric's lisp and overall voice perfectly match the speakers, while Booker-T has a much deeper and slightly raspier voice akin to George C. Scott.

Source or it didn't happen. InedibleHulk (talk) 05:12, 27 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Why do you have to alter the facts just make something seem funnier or more realistic ??? WTF !!!! Davey Boy Smith said " he fell on his ASS , not arse[edit]

Get your hearing checked pronto !!!  Either that or whoever wrote that knew they were lying and thought arse just seems a better fit because Dave Boy is British . It's clear as day , Davey said ASS , not arse .  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 96.233.70.198 (talk) 14:32, 1 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]
