10 Things We Learned From Dark Side Of The Ring: Chris Candido & Sunny

Get this.

None other than Lance Storm could've been drafted in as Candido's tag-team partner in The Bodydonnas. He'd teamed with Chris in Smoky Mountain beforehand, and had even worked with Tammy too. When Candido debuted in the WWF, Lance figured he'd get a call to become their onscreen ally.

The gig went to Tom Prichard instead. There's a bit of twisted humour in this part of the doc, because Tom called becoming Zip "the worst time of [his] life". He hated the gimmick, and had to be talked into cutting/bleaching his hair by his brother Bruce.

On reflection, Storm isn't exactly gutted he didn't get the nod. "I could have been Zip. In hindsight, thank God they didn't!". Other talking heads like Jim Cornette dismissed The Bodydonnas as a jobber idea anyway, and couldn't see it leading to anything worthwhile for Tammy (renamed Sunny by this point) or Candido.

Things could've been rather different.
