*** The video ends with another [[TheReveal Reveal]] of who sent Brian the ''Ultimate Death Match'' [=DVDs=]. The original plan was to get Wrestling/AlSnow to appear in-character as Frosty Jane, claiming that he was working on a revival of the Ultimate Death Match promotion, and nudged Zane into reviewing the films as a ViralMarketing stunt. This fell through when Snow didn't fulfill Zane's Cameo order in time, and so the contingency plan was used instead: revealing that the Annihilator sent the [=DVDs=] out of anger that Zane dropped the character after just one video eight years prior. This actually gets {{lampshade|Hanging}}d in the review itself where the Annihilator outright states the aforementioned plan, though the way he says it left it ambiguous whether he was serious or joking until the ''This Week in Wregret'' episode.
** In his tenth anniversary rewatch of his first video, Brian reveals that he considered ending the show around its second year, feeling he had done all he could with the concept. He changed his mind after the channel suddenly took off in popularity.

* WhatCouldHaveBeen: In the ''This Week in Wregret'' episode covering his ''Ultimate Death Match 3'' review, Zane revealed two big setpieces he wanted to include in the video:
** TheReveal that he appears in the film as an extra was supposed to be punctuated by a CutawayGag in which Zane finds himself in front of the venue the film's wrestling scenes were shot in. Entering the building, he would find a wrestling ring along with as many wrestlers from the film as he could get, all of whom would beat him up. The plan fell apart after he found out not only that the venue was now an art gallery, but it refused to rent the space out to him, and so the gag in the final video is a much smaller moment of Zane having a FreakOut where he "unlocks repressed memories" of being involved in the film.

* CowboyBebopAtHisComputer: In his ''Heroes of Wrestling'' review, he claims that "Mini Bundy" (a man seen at ringside through the show that resembled Wrestling/KingKongBundy, albeit much smaller than him) is the promoter of the show, Bill Stone. While it is a popular misconception,[[note]]Another theory at the time was that he was King Kong Bundy's manager[[/note]] Mini Bundy's real name is Michael Henry. Bill Stone was slimmer and has more hair for starters. Also, we saw Michael Henry before the main event; he was the valet in the pre-match promos between Tully Blanchard and Stan Lane.
