I saw little bastard under a black blanket during the beginning of a show with security people around him.

Didnt Mysterio say that he had a little monitor under the ring with him to know exactly when he should come out at SS 2002? Im guessing he was under their since the beginning >_<.

I remember Tracy Smothers saying he had to stay the whole show, given water and a bucket to piss in until he came out

right before the match their suppose to come out in,wwe turns off all the lights in the arena,and always shows a desire video on the tron,such as the wm23 highlight video or a trip to iraq video.at the same time blasting the volume all the way up.
while people are watching the video,backstage workers come out and pretend to tighten the ring mat and ropes,while the wrestler..who is dressed as a worker sneaks in really quick.
i remember back in jan of 06 at a supershow taping. when taker and kurt angle had a stare down,and taker disappeared.right after..they played a video and had 20 or so backstage workers surround the ring,then they all walked backstage surrounding taker who was covered in a black robe and bending down to hide his height.pretty funny.

I used to think about this when Sting popped up through the ring several times and attacked Bischoff in like..1997. I came to the conclusion that he stayed under the ring the whole show, " using" a Playboy magazine. Where do you think he got that white face paint? that is hilarouis but very wrong

When somebody comes out from under the ring and attacks somebody how do they do it without being seen? Do they have a traped door or do they just stay under the ring before the show starts untill they need to come out or do they do somthing else. Yeah there's a trap door. The wrestler goes down into hell from the backstage area and comes up under the ring through the trap door.

They stay under there for the whole show, until they are needed. You can see a box of water bottles placed next to the Ring Apron sometimes too, to help keep the Wrestler cool. I guess they have an earpeace and small TV under there or something. haha that made me chuckle alittle. I dont know why. Actually they have had a moniter down there before. I think it was in Foley's book that I read it. He was under there with the monitor, and was late coming out because he saw it was his time to go on the moniter, but couldn't get the Mankind mask on straight or something. EDIT- It may have been Rey Mysterio. I don't know, the only thing I can remember is numbers.

yeah, rey had a jumpsuit on under there, and there was a monitor under there so you knew your que. he said he struggled getting his jumpsuit off, that's why he was late getting out from under there at summerslam 02'.

They show a promo on the titantron and turn the lights off..And then usually a person would jump into a black suit and run.. i remember reading that somewhere..

i was at ecw ons in 06. i was sitting on the aisle next to the entrance, so i saw this first hand. while they played the video for the rvd/cena match, security walked down the aisle with a guy who had a black sheet over him. couldnt tell who it was, and everyone around me kinda forgot about it. but obviously as we all know, it was edge who came out. so, to answer your question, the wrestler comes out beofre they will be used. they definatly have ways to mask it. ive read internet reports of people who go to smackdown tapings and mention how they knew finlay is coming up next because while they are in "commercial" and the arena is dark they can see security escorting hornswaggle, who is covered up, to ringside. hope this made sense and helped you out!

When was the last time WWE did a spot like this? I think it's been a while, unfortunately -- they're always fairly entertaining. Hornswoggle comes out from under the ring during Finlays matches on Smackdown. But it's probably not that uncomfortable under there for him. He probably just...walks around Lmao that cracked me up.Anyway i always thought they snuck under the ring when the lights went out.

I'm surprised you guys didn't see that one time on smackdown! where little bastard came out, you could clearly see a moniter under there.

Like numerous people have said... They play a video on the titan-tron, and the lights go out.. a bunch of refs and crew in black come out, huddled in a group, hiding the person(or people) in the middle.. The workers then check the ring mat, ropes, etc, and then head to the back all while the video is playing..
I'll see if I can get my buddies picture of Hornswoggle in the middle of the group from a taping of Smackdown, earlier this year..
