A Screen Up Posted November 29, 2011 Share Posted November 29, 2011 Are there any famous examples of the wrong person winning a match? IE the wrestlers or referee botching the ending completely? I read somewhere that the refs are to count as if it were a legit contest. It should probably go without saying that Montreal doesn't count here.

Paid Members IANdrewDiceClay Posted November 29, 2011 Paid Members Share Posted November 29, 2011 (edited) For about two weeks WWE gave the refs that power, but never have they had it before to the best of my knowledge. Famous proof of this is when Earl Hebner forgets the finish to the No Way Out 2001 main event between Rock and Angle and pulls his hand away and they have to redo the finish. Â One occassion happened the night Rick Steiner beat the living shit out of Konnan. Konnan was supposed to win on a DQ, but Rick Steiner pinned him after Shane Douglas' interference and the ref counted the pin fall.

Paid Members air_raid Posted November 29, 2011 Paid Members Share Posted November 29, 2011 WWE Womens title change on a house show a few years back in Paris that they had to change back in an impromptu match later in the night. Forget who the participants were. It doesnt matter. If you think it matters, you deserve AIDS. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
A Screen Up Posted November 29, 2011 Share Posted November 29, 2011 (edited) ^ Yeah, I remember that happening. I think it was in an issue of Power Slam where I read about the referees ruling matches that way. Obviously on a live airing such as Raw or PPV's all of the wrestlers' theme musics and on-screen graphics will have been set up prior to the shows going ahead hence why I was wondering how they went around it. As I imagine though, it's probably never happened. Cheers anyway though Ian. Â I wrote that before I saw your reply, Raid. I did read something about that but I can't remember who was involved either. I'm not so curious that I'll be getting a dose of AIDs anytime soon, though.

That's the story I heard. I was at that show as a kid. Â Didn't the Hardcore Battle Royal at Wrestlemania years back end with Bob Holly winning by mistake?

Paid Members air_raid Posted November 29, 2011 Paid Members Share Posted November 29, 2011 (edited) Didn't the Hardcore Battle Royal at Wrestlemania years back end with Bob Holly winning by mistake?  Yes. Crash was meant to kick out and retain. He didnt raise a shoulder. The ref didnt actually count the three either. It looked really fishy. They gave the match to Hardcore, Crash won it back the night after.  As for Womens title in Paris debacle, IF YOU REALLY MUST KN-OW, know that by clicking below, you deserve AIDS, and will get no sympathy from the rest of us if you declare* that you have AIDS at any time in the future.  <-- click on 'spoiler' to show/hide the spoiler   It was 24/04/07.  Mickie James pinned Victoria in a triple threat match to win Melina's title when Vic didnt get her shoulder up in time. James and Melina wrestled one on one later, and Melina got the belt back.    [close spoiler] ");document.close();  * In Off Topic, I sincerely hope.

Paid Members JNLister Posted November 30, 2011 Paid Members Share Posted November 30, 2011 There was an ECW (WWE version) match where the ref had to do an unplanned DQ. Benoit went mental about it. Shortly before he went mental for the last time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators PowerButchi Posted November 30, 2011 Moderators Share Posted November 30, 2011 Benoit was involved in a fuck up against Muhammed Hassan on Raw in 2005 as well which ruined Hassan's undefeated streak. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members PunkStep Posted November 30, 2011 Paid Members Share Posted November 30, 2011 (edited) Which TNA wrestler is referred to as 'Football Boy' on here? Is it AJ? And why? Edited November 30, 2011 by fruitcorner Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Loki Posted November 30, 2011 Share Posted November 30, 2011 I'm re-watching every single wrestlemania each week until next years (Very geeky i know) so far i'm up to WM 12 this week, but my question is this. Â After only just discovering the bloke from prior Manias, What the hell happened to Todd Pettengill? He was awesome! Â He was, wasn't he? He would have been perfect for the PG era of the WWE too, although that may be coming to an end now. His enthusiasm was infectious and he was always involved in some ridiculous but hilarious pre-PPV shenanigans. Â Ian is probably mates with him on Twitter...?

Moderators PowerButchi Posted November 30, 2011 Moderators Share Posted November 30, 2011 Which TNA wrestler is referred to as 'Football Boy' on here? Is it AJ? And why? Â Jesse Sorenson, because his whole gimmick is that he used to play High School football and so carries a pigskin around to that effect. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
