Happy News Lady loves it when I show off my wrestling knowledge. So just for HNL, here is a bunch of dubious achievement facts about WWE Superstars and alumni. Enjoy. 
k
Chris Jericho has lost 3 matches on episodes of Raw in which resulted in him being fired.
Both of JBL’s “last†matches were against Rey Mysterio.
Mr. Anderson was the final opponent of both Eddie Guerrero and Eddy ‘Umaga’ Fatu.
Kane holds 3 different Royal Rumble records. He has scored the most eliminations in one Rumble (11), most overall appearances (16*) and quickest elimination of another opponent (1 second). Even so, he has never won. He only reached the final 4 twice.
*This includes his runs in previous gimmicks.
Mick Foley, Road Dogg, Hardcore Holly, Billy Gunn, British Bulldog, Test, Undertaker, Goldust, William Regal, Val Venis, Owen Hart, D’Lo Brown and Jeff Jarrett are all one title away from being Grand Slam champions. But they will never complete the sequence.
Edge won his first two WWE Championships in 2006. He also had more than 250 losses that year.
A special WWF Heavyweight Championship belt was made to fit Andre the Giant. But Andre’s only run as WWE champion lasted about 1 minute. He never got to wear the specially made title. He never even got to try it on.
The ‘Million Dollar Championship’ title belt cost more to insure than most other title belts that the WWE has owned.
Rob Van Dam’s first ever appearance in a WWE ring was to kiss ‘Million Dollar Man’ Ted DiBiase’s feet.
It took 19 years for Jerry ‘The King’ Lawler to have his first WrestleMania match.
Jake ‘The Snake’ Roberts, Vader, Doink the Clown, Jimmy “Superfly†Snuka, Junkyard Dog, George ‘The Animal’ Steele, Bam Bam Bigelow and Tatanka never won a single title in the WWE.
Dolph Ziggler’s first WWE title was the World Tag Team Championship… which he co-held with 4 other men in the Spirit Squad.
Since being founded, the company has spent a total of 9 months without a WWE Champion.*
*Presuming that a new WWE Champion is decided at the Battleground pay-per-view.
Mick Foley is a 3-time WWE Hardcore Champion. He was awarded the title on all-three occasions.
Raven is a 26 time WWE Hardcore Champion. Twenty of those title reigns only lasted a few minutes.
The quickest title change is 1 second. Spike Dudley defeated European Champion William Regal to win the title. Spike made the pin cover, and the Referee counted the pin attempt, BEFORE the match had started. When the match did begin, Spike got the win almost immediately.
The Big Show once retained the Hardcore Championship by pinning Essa Rios against a wall.
The Casket, Buried Alive, Last Ride and Hell In A Cell matches are all supposed to be Undertaker’s specialities. Statistically speaking, he is more likely to lose. His best result is a 50% win rate in Last Ride (as there has only been 2).
John Cena has a pin fall loss against Kevin Federline.
Dennis Knight (Phineas Godwinn / Mideon) used to heavily criticised for rarely exercising, never visiting a gym and avoiding healthy foods. In spite of these criticisms, he never missed a show due to illness or injury. WWE recently reported that Mideon is now a top chef and food critic.
