So, indy promoter Joe Dombrowski posted this on his Facebook. Virgil is at it again!

So Virgil told us his alleged penis size. No one asked him this. No one was even discussing this. He just volunteered this during a conversation about women. Here is a list of Virgil fun facts I learned, spoken by Virgil himself -
- He still works for WWE
- He has been in 17 WrestleManias
- He had a $7 million contract with WCW
- That contract was guaranteed money through 2005 (NOTE: Keep in mind, EVERY other WCW guy's guaranteed deal ended by early 2003)
- He once measured Daniel Bryan, and he is only 4'11"
- Andre the Giant was 7'6.5"
- If you wanted Hulk or Rock to sign something, they'd charge you $1,000. This is why his $20-30 charge was acceptable. Austin is $750.
- If you collected all of the NWO guys' trading cards, you could sell the set for thousands of dollars.
- The WrestleMania 4 main event was Virgil & DiBiase with Andre in their corner vs. Hogan & Savage with Liz in their corner
- Zach Gowen was in his late 20s when he was in WWE
- Virgil was the youngest man signed to WWE in history (NOTE: According to Online World of Wrestling, Virgil would have been 25 when he started in WWF)
- TNA paid Hogan $25 million and Flair $15 million.
- Undertaker's real name is Mark Caraway.
- Vince McMahon ran every other wrestling magazine out of business and is the only one left (ironic, eh?)
- The only official NWO shirt ever had "NWO 4 Life" on the front and "Too Sweet" on the back.
- After Vince bought WCW, he filled an entire landfill with WCW merchandise. Then, he and Triple H got into a helicopter and dropped a lighter on it, burning it all.
- His penis size....according to him... is 14.5 inches (NOTE: I looked it up, the world record is only 13.5 inches).
This plus his incessant talking, complaining, insulting people who refused to pay him money under his breath, swearing around children, and just generally being Virgil, has eliminated all my patience. The vendor on the other side of him somehow switched tables specifically to get away from him, vowing he will demand a refund from the Con if he's ever placed next to him again. THAT was my weekend.

Has anybody from TSM interacted with Virgil?

Split Epic's post because ya know what... we needed a Virgil thread. His vendor days are legendary, his pictures iconic still shots that rival National Geographic, and his work rate superior to all of the AJPW Big 4 combined.

He had a sweet theme and the crowd loved him when he turned face (seriously, check out how crazy the heat is when he finally turns on Dibiase as well as when he wins at Summerslam) but he fuckin' sucked.

I could believe this one.

Him and Honky Tonk Man tried to walk me to the ATM at a Con a couple years ago to buy their shit. Virgil held my hand on the handshake too long.

With me being such a size queen, I can think of 14.5 reasons I hope so!

I had a brief interaction with Virgil at an indy show in October '12 (main evented by future TNA World Champ Lashley and also featuring a semi-rare appearance by Warrior). I was looking at some fake Mexican wrestling masks at the table next to his and heard somebody singing porno sounding music. I looked up and it was Virgil (!!!) flashing the nWo Wolfpac sign (I was wearing a NASH shirt). I flashed it back and ran the other way, knowing that if I interacted any more with Virg, I would have dropped $60 at his table and been suckered into him talking to me about how him Vs Hulk Hogan sold out Giants Stadium in the Summer of '89.

I saw him at another indy show seven months before that and he actually had a decent amount of people at his table that night so no interaction. But he did stick around for like an hour longer than anyone else even though no one was looking for autographs. They were playing really bad Top 40 music and I got to witness Virgil dance a little bit in his chair to "Poker Face"

Precious memories.

I reffed a match last year where he served as a bodyguard for the heel commissioner, and during the show he tried to sell the boys in the back his shirts.

Big weekend for Virgil. He creeped out Sasha Banks on Twitter and somehow was hanging out on the court on NBA All Star Saturday.

Man, Virgil should've went to All Japan after he left WWF instead of WCW!

They should say fuck it and have Wrestling Star Virgil sit alone in the corner at the performance center.

Older African Americans have a disproportionately high death rate for COVID-19 though so maybe WWE will stick him in the corner of the Performance Center.

Can you imagine how depressing Virgil's salesman fit would be if he was having an uncontrollable coughing fit!?

As a victim of Virgil and Honky Tonk Man fighting over escorting me to the ATM to buy photos with them, I feel the cough could provide an easier escape.

I never knew Virgil got an AWA World Championship against Nick Bockwinkel.

Hey! The KISS Demon's tights were basically Brian Adams' tight minus the NWO symbol. I want his NWO kangol style hat. C'mon eBay.

Who the hell are we supposed to root for in a match between a makeshift NWO C team and The Border Patrol? I guess the answer is "Who cares really..."
