10 Most Notorious JBL Urban Legends

5. He Was Knocked Out By Joey Styles

The Legend: That diminutive former ECW commentator Joey Styles once knocked JBL out cold. Why People Believe It: In late 2008, a story began circulating online that JBL had been knocked out by Joey Styles during the company's tour of Iraq. Apparently, JBL was in full-on hazing mode during the tour and spent most of the time intoxicated. First, he dumped a bucket of ice water on a sleeping Lillian Garcia, then he turned his attention to Styles. But the man famous for his 'Oh my God!' catchphrase was in no mood to put up with it and, pushed to the end of his tether, fought back (literally), decking JBL with a single punch. JBL was sporting a black eye during the next episode of Raw and supposedly kept himself to himself. It's hard to blame him. Is It True: Yes, Styles' victory has been confirmed by several people. Not only did it teach the bully a lesson, but it exposed Bradshaw's hard man reputation as a sham. After this, there were no more stories of JBL bullying and belittling those smaller than him backstage.
