Here's one from my very first house show: Picture it: February of 1988 in Boise, Idaho. My dad thought I was old enough to go to a live show, and I was beyond stoked. The semi-main event was Hercules Hernandez VS. the Ultimate Warrior. At one point, Herc was hammering on the Warrior in the corner turnbuckle that was closest to me. Warrior reversed positions, and started pounding on Herc in the corner. As I watched, starry-eyed, I noticed something dangling from Warrior's face. It was a long snot hanging from his nose. Not surprising, considering it was late winter in Idaho. Once UW noticed it, he wiped his face with the back on his hand, and attempted to fling it off outside the ring. He flung it too hard, as it went over the ringside area and into the crowd. People in the crowd jumped for it, in an attempt to catch it. Not sure if they thought he was throwing an arm-band, or whatever. Ewwww, lol ugh that’s gross. His paint use to hang off his nose sometimes and look like a bugger, but if it was an actual booger blah, people are crazy man haha. It would be legendary though if somebody still has it 🤣 |

At a house show in 2005 right as we were getting out our car I noticed a green explorer and the driver looked familiar. I couldn't figure out who it sas until they got closer I realized it was Kurt Angle and Big Show in the passenger seat. Poor Big Show his seat was pushed all the way back and he was still hunched over and looked uncomfortable.
I can't remember for sure but I think this one was a house show the weekend after Rollins turned on the Shield. Paige Alicia Fox & Natalya were in a triple threat. At one point while Paige was outside the ring Fox's top came undone so she knocked Natalya down, & the ref started to tie it back up for her. Before he could finish, Paige not knowing what was going on came back into the ring & started attacking Fox. She put Fox in an abdominal stretch, noticed what was going on then gave a funny look to the crowd like she was saying "Oops, my bad" then finished tying Fox's top for her.

Just remembered a funny one from an Indy show. There was a segment where a tag team was cutting a promo. The plan seemed to be that they would be interrupted by another team, they’d argue, brawl, security would break it up, and a match would take place.
So team 1 is cutting their promo. Team 2 interrupts. They argue. They start getting loud and a single security guard storms the ring and gets between them. Everyone just awkwardly stares at him trying to break up a fight that hasn’t even started yet. So he awkwardly rolls out of the ring and as he’s walking to the back, the teams start brawling and the rest of the security rush the ring. The original guy is half way up the aisle. He now has to turn around and run back to the ring. By the time he got back in there, he was gassed. He wasn’t in good shape at all.
There was another Indy show I went to years ago with a pretty funny spot. It was a 6 man tag and all 6 guys started wildly hip tossing each other and rolling out of the ring. It got to a point where the last guy went to hip toss the ref. Then the ref reversed it and hip tossed the guy. The ref started hyping up as everyone got to their feet outside. He then climbed to the top and hit everyone with a diving crossbody to the outside.
The main event for that show was Adam Cole vs current referee Eddie Orengo (he was wrestling as Bandido Jr at the time). I still remember paying $10 at the door for front row seats
