3 Wrestling legends that were fake, and 5 that might be real

False: Superstar Billy Graham drank Clorox bleach on a bet

Backstage at wrestling events is often a matter of 'hurry up and wait'. After you've done your last pump up rep, slid into your ring gear, and went over the match with your opponent, there's not much to do.

Naturally, bored people look for entertainment, and bets and practical jokes are often the go-to for a cure. Rumor has it that another wrestler bet perennial self-proclaimed tough guy Superstar Billy Graham that he couldn't drink a half gallon of bleach without vomiting. According to urban legend, Graham then proceeded to chug the contents of a small bottle of Clorox and responded only with a belch.

Ingesting a small amount of bleach, say a mouthful, will only result in a mild case of nausea. However, according to the poison control center website, drinking as much of the sodium based cleaning regent will cause burns in your intestinal tract, vomiting, diarrhea and massive cramping, and could lead to internal bleeding.

The fact that Graham suffered none of these effects means either the rumor is false, or Superstar tricked his hapless mark into thinking he was drinking Clorox when it was really another liquid in the bottle.
