7. Justin Credible Wrestled For WWE Drunk

One of Shawn's early disciples had an even more astonishing story to tell to The Hannibal TV.

Before leaving to find fame as Justin Credible in ECW, Pete Polaco worked as the jock-strap-wearing (not really, but kinda') Aldo Montoya in the WWF. He was a loose member of The Kliq who travelled with Kevin Nash, Scott Hall, Michaels, Sean Waltman and Triple H on the road. One day, some of the group got smashed at a local strip club whilst chowing down on some steaks.

Two hours after sinking shots, they scrambled in snowy conditions to make it on time to a WWF card in Quebec City. Credible remembers getting changed into his Montoya gear as the car raced down the roads at 80mph, and he dashed out of the vehicle just in time to hear his entrance music thumping over the PA. It was a mad rush to even get to the ring.

That's not the end of the story. Credible wrestled drunk, and The Undertaker and Yokozuna decided to have a little fun with him. They advised his opponent, Savio Vega, chop the living hell out of his drunken peer, so that's what Savio did. The whole thing was a learning curve for Credible.
