10 Unusual Demands Wrestlers Made To Other Wrestlers
1. Mae Young Tells Kurt Angle To Spike Her Ass
As you've already seen on an number of occasions over the course of this list, it's not too uncommon to find an up-and-coming star requesting for their fellow wrassler to add some additional intensity to their interactions in-between the ropes as a way of forcing folks to sit up and take notice.
However, this still rather bizarre demand to take things up a few legitimate notches with your colleague was taken to new extremes back in early 2000, with Kurt Angle suddenly being ordered to dump a wrestling legend with some extreme force.
Said legend was none other than an 82-year-old Mae Young who had cornered the Olympic gold medalist backstage before their planned altercation on an episode of Raw in February of that year. Angle himself would recall on his podcast last year:
"So before we had it out, we were in Gorilla Position, and Mae Young comes up to me and says, ‘Mr. Angle, I want to tell you what I want you to do to me tonight.’ I said, ‘Okay, Mae.’ She said, ‘I want you to spike my a** as hard as you can into the mat.’ I want you to Angle Slam me as hard as you possibly can.’"
And this wasn't the only time Young demanded her male colleagues deliver the physicality either, with Bob Holly revealing a similar story of being reluctant to nail Mae with a stiff clothesline, only to be told to "Bring it, motherf***er" by the octogenarian.
