10 Secret Wrestling Retcons You DEFINITELY Don't Remember

Stephanie McMahon was born on 24 September 1976. Paul Wight was brought into the world on 8 February 1972. In other words, there's exactly 4 years, 7 months and 16 days between them. So, imagine the confusion when Stephanie alleged that Big Show was her childhood hero on TV back in 2013.

The lines get blurrier. It was implied that Steph viewed Show as some second coming of real childhood favourite Andre The Giant, but even that shouldn't have caused Wight to bubble like a baby and fall for The Authority's tricks. They were emotionally gaslighting him into doing their bidding, and he fell for it; at least for a while.

Meanwhile, people in the stands looked around wondering how McMahon could've watched Show as a nipper. After all, she was in her late-teens by the time he debuted in WCW, and it's unlikely young Stephanie was sitting down to watch The Giant feud with Hulk Hogan in mid-1995.

This was up there with WCW pretending Show was Andre's son, and no-one talks about it enough.
