Ribbing is a massive part of the wrestling industry, as being on the road all the time requires a bit of entertainment, and getting it at the expense of your peers is an easy source. There are plenty of stories of hilarious ribs throughout the business, but this prank from Mick Foley and Steve Austin to Diamond Dallas Page is among the best.

According to Foley, this incident happened during a WCW tour which saw the trio riding together and sharing hotel rooms. Foley and Austin had a problem with DDP's nighttime attire, as he would happily strut around the hotel room naked before going to bed. This irked them, so they decided to seek revenge after he refused to change his ways.

To do so, Foley and Austin took a collection of cookies that a fan had baked and crumbled them up in DDP's bed while he was in the shower. The WCW superstar eventually got into his bed and was furious to be covered in cookies, prompting a food fight between himself and the devious duo.

Everyone involved in the story seems looks back on it fondly now, but you have to imagine DDP was looking to drop a Diamond Cutter on either of them in the heat of the moment.
