I thin we should introduce a rule here. I shall call it Hogan's Law:

It goes like this:

If the story came from Hogan's mouth, or he is the primary source for said story, Its a lie...

My conspiracy is that Andrew actually has a full head of beautiful, long, soft hair but is under contract set by Adam to wear a bald cap while on screen.

I believe that Vince McMahon knew Russo would mess up WCW with bad decisions, but that Russo wasn't aware of this plan

[ck.standard]

My conspiracy, Vince was grooming Razor to be the Top Babyface and eventual face of the WWF but Kevin Nash got in Razors ear and convinced him to take the money and jumpship to WCW

"Take that one Terry, you virgin" is an all-time GOAT quote.

If you guys can come up with enough additional conspiracy theories, do you think we could get more videos like this? I really liked this.

I've always believed Savage decked Hogan. It just makes sense with all the information we have. Plus, I think Savage was furious over Hogan's booking and the mess of the main event at WrestleMania IX.

i believe that mick foley, cactus jack, dude love, and mankind are all the same person

About the Foley one, Undertaker always points out how he moves to onto the edge of the section and “gets lucky” to not have fallen through the cell. He could’ve just known and that’s why he steps back.

[sam_hausen]

Loved this, fully agree with the Shawn Michaels injury theory. He was/is a smart business man. He knew what was up.

My personal take on Brock beating the streak is that Vince wanted Roman to be the one who ended it, but was talked into letting Brock do it first purely so that Roman could beat Taker and not get backlash from the fans for doing so. I know he did once he beat Taker, but if he had of ended the streak then the fans would never have forgiven him. The fans already had a love hate relationship with Brock at that point so was safer to let him take that heat

[Blenky-jtco]

Jesus, I can't believe they said that thing about that thing

[joshsykes]

To counter Andrew's point about Foley going through the cell. It's already known that he got concussed on the first fall from the side so him looking at the roof is a) reassuring himself that the cage will sink as intended or b) he just glanced for the roof not knowing what was to coming trusting Taker for the following spot

Now hear me out: The Yeti wasn’t actually a Yeti, but rather a mummy!

[mcfadyenmaffoo]

A theory that would crush the world if true - Titus Worldslide was planned.

I agree completely with you guys on Shawn Michaels injury. I don’t think it was as bad as they claim but I think the reason he stayed out so long was bc of his personal issues. I mean they kept him on tv regularly up until about early 2000. Don’t forget he was “commissioner” before mick foley was in the attitude era. It makes complete sense to me that they did that thinking he’d come back to wrestle and then finally sent him home once again when it became clear he was still up to his old tricks only to bring him back in 2002 when he finally sobered up

one of my fave wrestling conspiracy theories is that the reason brock lesnar held the universal title for so long without defending it was to overshadow cm punk's reign as wwe champion, as he was one of the longest reigning champs of the modern era until bork won the universal championship. one of my conspiracy theories is the reason that raquel rodriguez and aaliyah won the womens tag titles was because of the fact originally stark & lyons (and later toxic attraction) were supposed to win them, defend them on nxt, then lose to dmg cntrl at some point in the future. due to both parties having issues (stark & lyons with visa and covid vax stuff and toxic attraction being victims of the injury bug), they instead put in transitional champions, specifically knowing they wanted to push rodriguez at some point.

There will always be a sliver of doubt to the Shawn Michaels injury because Shawn Michaels is famously the best seller at that time and perhaps ever

[heaelu]

Vincent McMahon certainly fired some wrestlers intentionally to overpack and create tensions in AEW... it was something people talked about at the times of firing-hiring rounds and seems like something he could actually do, like a long term psycho game. And as an afterthought: maybe that is just happening, too much "indie-talent" let go from WWE created some of the problems AEW has right now inside the roster... Vincent knew that overeager Tony could not be able to resist the urge to hire almost all of the. And there were true egos among... True talent too ofcourse.

[chrismcsweeney]

I never actually thought about Shawn Michaels injury like that. Very Interesting theory.
