I've got a good one - It was at an old school ECW show in Ft Lauderdale. Sandman was in the lobby before the show, selling merchandise and sigining autographs.
True to form, he was WASTED! I was standing next to a guy who took his wallet out to buy something. Sandman grabs the wallet out of the guy's hand and starts going through the guy's stuff! He pulled out a picture of a girl and said: "Who's this? Is that your girlfriend? HEY EVERYONE, LOOK AT THIS GUY'S GIRLFRIEND!" And then he passed the picture around to all the guys hanging around there.
Rob Van Dam's girlfriend passed through the lobby, and Sandman says: "Hey - You see that girl? That's Rob Van Dam's girlfriend." Then Sandman yells at her: "Hey honey, go tell Rob I'm gonna kick his ass tonight!"
She shook her head and said under her breath: "Asshole." And walked out of the lobby. And it wasn't a work either, it was like she was really pissed off at him.
Great thread idea! I may have more, but that one stands out right now.

This one was when I was much younger, in New Hampshire around 1981. We would all hang out outside the building there (JFK Memorial) to meet wrestlers and get autographs, because you could hang out in the back parking lot where they'd park. Usually you could get anyone's autographs, as even the heels were pretty nice, especially with kids (Bob Orton Jr was especially nice as a heel). One time, Blackjack Mulligan was walking in, and he was one of my big favorites at the time. Me and another kid were standing there, along with the other kid's mother. Blackjack gets out like he's in a really foul mood, and starts walking real fast to the side door of the building. So, me and the kid go up with stuff to autograph, and Blackjack starts saying really agrressively that he's not signing anything, and to get lost (not really "in character", but more like a guy who's PO'ed about something). So, the kid's mother starts chewing Blackjack's ass out. While she was doing that I just happened to be standing right next to him. Blackjack turns around and gets into a shouting match with her, and says: "Here! You want me to sign for your kid?" And he grabs MY picture and scribbles on it, "There! I signed for your kid!" And then he stormed into the building. The poor kid was crying. Blackjack wasn't advertised as appearing that night, and I think there were changes to the card. So I always thought maybe he was told to "go to New Hampshire" at the last minute and was pissed about it. Funny thing is, I met Blackjack again a couple years later at the studio they taped the old Florida wrestling show at, and he was like the nicest guy in the world. I told him that I met him once in New Hampshire, and he said: "In New Hampshire" r k

I still rememeber, word-for -word, my favorite wrestling T.V. promo of all time. It was ECW, ca '93 or '94 when I was watching it on Sportschannel.
Too Cold Scorpio and Ron Simmons were promo'ing a tag match against Shane Douglas and Mr. Hughes, with Sherri Martel as Douglas's valet:
Scorpio: "...and Sherri Martel - huh! I ain't never hit a woman - huh! But do you consider yo'self one?"
Ron Simmons (shakes his head with a disgusted look on his face at Scorpio): "You ain't never hit a...Well brotha, I HAVE!" ;D
Ron Simmons - Super cool, and one of the most underrated wrestlers of all time. Scorpio too, for that matter.

there are two moments for me, both in the same match at an acw show, the match was cassandro and shark boy v. mike dell and rory fox, during the match cassandro was pulling his usual exotico shenanigans and dell was getting upset by it and he yells, "what is this a wrestling match or a rape!?" how easily the two are confused. haha. same match, dell and fox get the upper hand on cassandro but he tries to go for the tag, they stop him and drag him out of his corner while cassandro is yelling "shark boy! shark boy!" in his wonderful dramatic style with his hand reaching out to shark boy. great match. more cassandro!

Here's a good one - It was at the West Palm Beach Auditorium in West Palm Beach, Florida. I was in the first few rows.
It was an early 90's card, when Jerry Lawler had just started getting involved with the WWF. I don't think he was doing commentary yet, but strictly wrestling; and I don't remember who he was wrestling on this card, but he was the heel.
So, everyone was booing Lawler and all of a sudden this skinny redneck-looking guy comes walking slowly up to the front row and with his mouth all quivering with emotion he yells:
"Jerry The King Lawler is the HERO of the WORKIN' MAN!"
And then he went walking back to wherever he came from, all nervous and shaking.
I thought the guy was about to cry. ;D

Spector's mommy crying "you think you can do better? lets see you get in there." after the continuous heckling I gave her severely untalented son at a RCW show. Spector is the reason I stopped going to RCW shows. That chihuahua that she brought with her was more entertaining than her son could ever be.
Second funniest thing that I ever saw came from more Spector heckling. It was so bad the Treats had to ask me to stop because they couldn't stop laughing. I've seen Gator wrestle at an original ACW show and it was better than the six Joey Spector matches I was forced to watch at RCW shows. He found ways to make Wally Darkmon boring.
