I've told this story before but this is perfect thread to tell it again. I once urinated next to Rick Fuller at an extremely poorly attended indy show in 2010. Very loud breather IIRC.

PWO/DVDR revealing to me that El Dandy was a huge star in Mexico in the early 90s absolutely blew my mind after WCW jobbed him out except for his run with Silver King.... Los Fabulosos? Possibly with Kiebler? Oh man, I haven't thought about that in a long time.

Los Fabulosos was name of El Dandy and Silver King’s team that got a short lived undercard push in ‘00. They feuded with post gay gimmick Lenny & Lodi (as Standards & Practices maybe? God, nosediving dying WCW lover insider humor). Los Fabulosos wore hilariously unflattering skintight Power Rangers like costumes.
It was just a victim of bad timing as their push started like literally two weeks before Russo returned and reset all of the storylines. In fact, IIRC, their last appearance was standing in the ring with rest of non main eventers when Russo gave his dumb return “shoot” promo.

Maaaan, Kanyon was so good.
I remember someone getting really mad at Bret for this promo and his burying of El Dandy.

No lie. When Booker T lost his T to Big T, my brother said straight faced that this is one of the biggest moments in wrestling history.

El Dandy was also the winner of the Lou Ferrigno lookalike contest, never forget

He has a very annoying Twitter presence. Which I guess culminated with him following me. He's trying very very hard and very unsuccessfully to get over as a "controversial, outspoken grizzled '90s vet". Which is like fuck, why would you emulate Disco Inferno and Al Snow?
He had a match in ROH last year and is pretty good for an old timer but he'd rather focus on his physical therapy practice and trying to pick fights with wrestling Twitter then get more bookings, I guess.

Crowbar is totally a legend. I remember the Wall putting him through a table, and him standing in the way so I couldn't see Daffney. His shitty beliefs, which I think cost him a gig in TNA in the early days. That he looks like a goth Nostalgia Critic. He's absolutely a legend. I want him and Damien Demento to have a podcast.

If 10 year old me knew that his favorite Spice Girl was in the same room with gd Razor Ramon, he would have flipped the heck out.

Who could forget such cruiserweight greats as Bobby Eaton and Steve Doll?
I doubt Bobby Eaton had been under 225 since he was in high school.

Steve Doll's career highlight was being in the ring when Scott Hall made his debut kicking off one of the most famous wrestling angles ever.

vs The Mauler (Mike Enos)! When the match started, I think every wrestling fan was like "Why the hell did a random undercard heel Vs heel match make Nitro? Oh...."
I wonder what would be the most meaningless Nitro match in history. Hour 1 of Nitro during the three hour era had some real garbage time matches. There was a point in early-mid '99 where they were like "Hey wait. Why are we putting these garbage matches on this slot? Let's just do mostly interviews and video packages during Hour 1!" and wrestling fans were just like "You know you guys have the most loaded roster of all time. You could put GOOD MATCHES on here. Whatever. I'm going to watch Sable."
