10 Funniest Wrestling Shoot Stories

Jake ‘The Snake’ Roberts likes to tell the story of a classic rib on the Ultimate Warrior back in the old school WWF days. The tale goes that Warrior was being a prima donna, something he’d be notorious for in the late eighties and early nineties, and that Mr. Perfect determined that he would do something about it.

One night at a television taping, Warrior’s storyline required him to materialise in the ring in the main event. Sorry to burst your bubble, but raving space barbarians do not really have the power of teleportation - to allow this miraculous event to occur, he had to sit underneath the ring for the final few matches on the card. Unfortunately for him, Curt Hennig had got there first.

Perfect had nipped beneath the ring before the show began and taken what can only be described as a colossal, unholy dump under there, carefully warning his friends in the roster not to mention the smell if they noticed anything. When the Ultimate Warrior went out to skulk under the ring, waiting for his grand and inexplicable entrance, he had to sit in the stinking company of a coiled lump of toxic bum chunder for an hour first.
