** On the August 23, 1999 ''Raw'', Stevie and Meanie presented the first ''The Blonde Bytch Project'' vignette, a mockery of Wrestling/{{Sable}}. It was scrapped out of concern for her lawsuit and because, allegedly, Vince [=McMahon=] was unaware of ''Film/TheBlairWitchProject'' and didn't know how many people would get the joke.[[note]]A similar fate would befall Paul Burchill's {{Pirate}} gimmick in 2006, due to Vince not knowing about the ''Franchise/PiratesOfTheCaribbean'' movies.[[/note]]
** The Right To Censor idea was originally pitched by Joe E. Legend. Guess who didn't get to be part of the group?
* OldShame: As "Stephen" in Right To Censor, not that Stevie disliked the group itself but because he does not think he was doing his best work or was in the best physical shape while he was at the head of it, suspecting that may have hurt what may have been a stepping block to bigger pushes rather than what he got when the group broke up (none went too far afterwards, truth be told)

* RealLifeWritesThePlot: Wrestling/JohnBradshawLayfield legit [[ExtremeMeleeRevenge beat Blue Meanie bloody]] during a worked brawl segment during ECW's One Night Stand in 2005. Stevie Richards was with WWE at the time and took exception to this, so a few weeks later, when the Blue Meanie got a match with JBL, Stevie Richards, during a planned interference, got a measure of revenge by winding up with a steel chair and shoot-applying it forcefully to JBL's forehead. And chair shots to the head were still allowed - unprotected ones at that. JBL sustained a legit concussion, and if that weren't enough, ate the pin in the match.

Despite the fact that Meanie actually hit the Meaniesault, that didn't get the pin. It took Wrestling/{{Batista}} running in and attacking JBL for Meanie to score the pin.
