Since Undertaker is hardly there any more, who's taken the reins as locker room leader?

 

Probably JBL. There were always 2 sets of stories about him going around when he was active. One where he was a respected member of the locker room (& I think he might have been instrumental in banning Miz from the locker room IIRC) & the others that said he was a prick that gave a lot of enjoyment when Joey Styles made him his bitch. No idea on house shows or any time JBL isn't doing commentary.

The wrestlers now are probably a bit grown up for the Wrestler's Court type nonsense. But the locker room leaders would most likely be Big Show, Henry, Cena, Kane. I know Big Show's regarded as one. Maybe Orton, there was a story going round a couple of years ago that he'd taken on a locker room leader role. Regal?

 

I still see it.

 

It's a reply to alexlynch97, if that helps.

Cheers. Somehow, I had a setting on Twitter where I was only seeing "no replies" tweets rather than "all" tweets.

The Informer in the old WWF/E Magazines, without going through my old magazines, how much of the stuff said was actually truth given away by WWF or was the whole lot fictional?

 

In all honestly don't ever recall going back and checking them

 

Most of it was bollocks, some of it came true. In 1994 he said Bundy was coming back to get Hitman, and they never had a program on TV, and he predicted other family members would come out of the woodwork to give Bret hassle, bollocks. At the end of 1996 he speculated Butch Reed would come back and join the Nation. He'd constantly hint that an unnamed from person from wrestler X's past was jealous of their success and come track them down, which never happened.

 

They occasionally printed something that came true - the 1997 predictions suggested a war between Shawn Michaels and Steve Austin but that they might unite against their mutual enemy Bret Hart, which kind of happened. But given the state of the WWF at that time and in 1997 when plans were shelved and changed on a weekly basis, it's probably coincidence. He also said, writing at a point where Mankind seemed to think Goldust was his "mommy," that we'd find out who "daddy" was, and also that Sid might join their crew. More bollocks.

Did anyone else notice the Hardy Boys' theme during MasterChef? It amused me more than it should as Les Dennis was onscreen at the time.

 

Stock production music is fabulous in its crossover appearances. I've seen people appear on Oprah or similar coming onto stage to Misterio and Malenko's WCW themes, and watching a hype video on a 1995 Raw I heard a track I recognized from a porn scene.

Always made me laugh how Lugers mid 90s WCW theme was also used for the WWF call-in ads around the same time period

The nWo and Benoit's first WCW music were off porn as well weren't they? And I remember being quite taken aback to hear Steve Blackman's first theme on the Television X 10 minute freeview once. That killed the moment. There's a 'Lethal Weapon' or kendo stick joke in there somewhere but I'm not witty enough.

 

In more innocent times, I definitely heard both Sting and The Barbarian's early 90s WCW music on Art Attack.

Or a head cheese one.

And of course, Renegade's theme was later used as Marvelous Marc Mero's theme. Not that anybody at Titan Towers probably knew/remembered who Renegade was.
