In the Summer of 1987 Superstar Billy Graham was challenged by "the Natural" Butch Reed, who claimed that he had the better physique, this led to a posedown on WWF/E's Wrestling Challenge that resulted in both Reed and his manager Slick attacking Graham...

I guess the match you might be talking about is Graham's match with Reed a few weeks later. Superstar Billy Graham defeated Butch Reed (w/ Slick) via disqualification when the One Man Gang interfered as Graham had Slick in the bearhug. After the bout, the One Man Gang hit three splashes on Graham's injured hip before Don Muraco made the save, as Muraco was brawling with Reed, the One Man Gang hit another splash on Graham outside the ring. It is this incident that is credited as ending Graham's wrestling career...

Who has been the only WWF/E champion to both win and lose the title with his feet on the ropes?!

D-FENS

Well the match i meant was affected by the outcome of the pose down i.e. Graham's fued with Slick's camp and subseqeunt injury, was the Main Event of Survivor Series '97 , when the Superstar had to pull out and was replaced by Murocco.

As for your question about the only world champ to win/lose with his foot on the ropes, why that's Graham again.

It was Ivory or Val Venis.Since pingu girl guessed Ivory,I'll guess Venis.

Brow

It was both with a spike piledriver in the right to censor days. Ivory came off the top with Venis doing the piledriver. But it was Ivory who went on to feud with Chyna about the whole broken neck thing, Venis got away scot free it seemed. I think Chyna won the womens title off Ivory then for the first time ever.

Yep, when she came back, ask a question

pingu_girl

ok so do i get to ask? if so........

bret hart was the first king of the ring but who did he beat in the finals?

Brow

I dont think he was the first ever King of the Ring but as far as i remember he beat IRS in the final.

As for my question...in that King of the ring Bret Hart only had to fight twice that night in the tournament. Why?

Brow is right about the KOTR question but do I not get to ask a question?I'm still gonna ask a question anyway!

Who had the shortest reign as IC champion in WWE history and who beat him for the title?

Stalfos

Dean Douglas has the shortest reign as IC champion
and he was beaten by Razor Ramon.

Where and when was the first European title defended?
Who was in the match and who won it?

Danger_Dave

Held at insurrection ? British bulldog won it.. not 100% sure

Brow

Bulldog did win it and he won it in Germany. It was a tournament but cant remember who was in the final.

How come my question got ignored?

LOL.It's like a wrestling storyline,really.Me and pingu girl gave an answer to a question and it was deemed we were both right so she asked her question which you answered but I was still allowed ask mine.

I think you get to ask one Brow after answering the question about Bret beating IRS.

However I know who Bulldog beat in the final - Owen Hart - and it was in Berlin.Michaels went on to take it from Bulldog if I'm not mistaken.
So do I get to ask one?If so:

What was so special about Rick Rude's victory over the Ultimate Warrior at WM V aside from the fact Rude won the belt?

Was it the first time Warrior was beaten, or at least pinned, in WWF?

Also, just for the record, When Bret Hart won the KOTR , he beat Bam Bam not IRS. IRS was'nt even in the '93 KOTR

What did Mick Foley call his Mandibal Claw Finisher when he was in his Dude Love persona

Brow

Bret Hart won the 91 King of the ring when he beat IRS. Your right in saying he beat Bam bam in 93 but he beat IRS in the 91 final.

I think Foley called it the Love Handle.

Indeed, i stand corrected. I was going by the televised ones, hard to believe KOTR started 20 years ago.

Ask a Q...

Brow

Only if its not ignored this time LOL...

When Foley went through the cell against Taker in the infamous Hell in the Cell match, he lost a tooth. Where did it end up?

His nose.

Sean Waltman tried a few names to wrestle under on Monday Night Raw, before settling on "The 1-2-3 Kid".
What were the othe rnames and what happened that made him finally chose "The 1-2-3 Kid".

Brow

Was it because he upset Razor being a new comer with a clean pin? Other names were The lightning Kid, the Kamikaze Kid, The Cannonball Kid or just The Kid.

Name the current wrestlers in WWE who have held the ECW tv title.

The Fitz

Ryhno, Dreamer.
