mark isn't just a carny term, it's a grifting term... But since the early days of pro wrestling and and carnivals were essentially big cons anyway, it was still applicable. It doesn't really mean the same anymore and is more just someone who is a big fan, there are fewer negative connotations too. Lance Storm talked about that in a Q&A once. I remember reading that...I'm quite a big Lance Storm mark, admittedly... Same here, and I always follow his blog.

A Lita fan calling Sunny a ring rat? Hell no...There is a HUGE difference in them. Firstly, even though Lita cheated on Matt, it lead to a relationship. Sunny would anything for drugs or fun. No matter if she was in a relationship or not.

I think the term refers to a poster from WFigs who believed he had a conversation with The Ultimate Warrior over AIM. His name....Mark.
