10 Times WWE Wrestlers Went Into Business For Themselves

10. René Duprée Pays Hardcore Holly's Speeding Fine The Hard Way

Hardcore Holly is known as one of the toughest wrestlers of his generation, with the former Thurman 'Sparky' Plugg more than happy to speak his mind and throw his fists when he deemed a situation needed it.

There are countless stories of Holly getting extremely physical over the years, and Bob's phenomenal The Hardcore Truth autobiography details countless bar fights, brawls and uber-stiff wrestling matches or training sessions.

For René Duprée, he found himself on the wrong end of a pissed off Hardcore Holly during a 2004 house show in Syracuse, New York.

There, Duprée was teaming with Kenzo Suzuki against Holly and Charlie Haas. Unfortunately for René, he was legitimately punched, kicked, choked, thrown around and then clattered in the head with a steel chair by the miffed Hardcore - to the point that the French-Canadian exited the match and ran to the back!

Why had Hardcore Holly gone into business for himself here by brutalising René Duprée? Why, that was because Duprée had borrowed Bob's rental car, picked up a speeding ticket, didn't tell Holly, then outright denied he had anything to do with it.

So, when the chance arose, Bob Holly took his opportunity to unleash his own brand of justice on René Duprée. And if reports are to be believe, Holly was find as much as $10,000 for an assault that left Duprée with a bruised and battered face.
