* ArtisticLicenceBiology: It was clear that what Bad News dumped in a trash can for "not being big and mean enough" to fight against Damien in a promo for his incomming match against Jake the Snake it wasn't a "Ghetto Rat", but a quite pissed off opossum.

* NotCheatingUnlessYouGetCaught: ''Wrestling/RoyalRumble '90'', just right after being eliminated by Wrestling/RoddyPiper, Brown (Standing on the apron) took Piper out over the top-rope. A discussion with the referees was ensured, then Brown and Piper went to a vicious bunkhouse brawl that took them up to the aisle, and continued all the way to the locker rooms. Piper was ''still legal'' by then, but he didn't returned, eliminating himself; effectively. In a sense it was a very effective use of WrestlingPsychology by Brown's part, because ''it worked out for him pretty well!''
