WWE Prank Stories That Will Make You Laugh

1) Owen Hart Ribs Jeff Jarrett And Their Driver

Val Venis tells the story in an interview about the time that Owen Hart ribbed Jeff Jarrett and their driver. Owen Hart is known for being one of the biggest practical jokers of all time. Here is how the story goes from Val Venis:

“There was one time when we watched Owen, he had a driver and he was in the passenger seat and Jeff Jarrett was in the backseat behind Owen. And as they are going up the ramp to drive out from the bottom of the arena, all you hear on the top of the roof of the car is ‘whack!’. And Owen looks over to the driver, he says ‘that guy up there just threw a rock down on your car”

He continued the story:

“So, the guy stops the car on the ramp, gets out of the car, runs up the ramp, runs around the rail and charges at the guy Owen pointed at. Well, a cop steps out in front of the driver and says ‘whoa, this guy didn’t throw any rock, the guy with the blonde hair in the car hit the roof of your car with his hand. And when the driver looks over the rail to look at Owen, Owen turns around and says ‘Jeff, why did you hit the top of the car?’ and put all the heat on Jeff” (Source: Inquisitr)

2) The Phone Number Rib

You might remember the WWE storyline from back in 1999 where Al Snow had a pet chihuahua named ‘Pepper’. Pepper was kidnapped by the Big Bossman and Snow became desperate to try to get his dog back.

As Snow posted missing posters for his dog (that were being shown on RAW), he included the real phone number of Val Venis.

Here is the story as told by Al Snow:

“Another good rib – because of the stage it was on was when I was doing the pepper (the dog) angle. Vince Russo told me we needed to do a missing poster for the dog. I looked at Christian and said “well every poster needs a phone number” and he suggested Val Venus, which I thought was perfect. The first time they filmed it, was from a distance. When it aired, Val’s phone rang and he said “I think you have the wrong number, I don’t have a dog, I think you want my mum’s number” (his mum was a dog breeder).

He only got that one call but you could hardly see the number on the screen, so the next night in Boston I was live on Raw and Vince Russo asked me to do the poster again. I must have pointed to that number 12 or 15 times in a one minute segment. Let’s just say Val didn’t sound happy when he called me at 3am…he had been constantly harassed and had to change his number!” (Source: The Huffington Post)

Considering there are millions of people that watch RAW each week (especially in 1999), I can understand how mad this would make someone.
