Topic: A Brief History of Frequently Pondered Questions. (or FAQs)


Q: Who is Busen Burner?

A: Bunsen Burner is the combination of the founding fathers of the WBCF. Chark , Darren , Yogesh , and Michael . After a freak accident, the genetic DNA of all four individuals were spliced to create the owner of the WBCF,as well as the owner of BBN television, and the JFBHL's Wow Cows, Bunsen Burner. He's a pretty cool guy once you get to know him. Anyone one else who ever contributed anything towards the WBCF (Chan, Sohiab, Chirag, etc.) had their genes spliced into Beaker Beep, Bunsen's trustworthy side-kick. Unlike Burner, this guy is a complete jackass, no one can understand anything he says.


Q: When and Why was the WBCF created?

A: The WBCF was created in the fall of 1993. Two disgruntled students, Chark and Darren, were once again screwed by fellow classmates Yogesh and Mike. You see, Yogesh and Mike always knew what was going on in biology class, while Chark and Darren were too busy kicking chairs out from each other's buttocks to pay attention in class. Instead of making the logical choice of helping out their friends, Mike and Yogesh decided to keep all knowledge to themselves, and complete their labs on their own. One day, while labs were being performed, Darren and Chark began a discussion involving wrestling. Soon thereafter, coins started flipping and the rest is history.


Q: Who were the first wrestlers and what was the first match in the WBCF? How was the match decided?

A: During their intellectual conversation concerning wrestling, Chark and Darren began to notice two students looking at them rather peculiarly. Those students were Pete and Jamil. Darren and Chark began to joke about having a tag match against them. But that joke soon became reality. Well not really, I guess. They named themselves the Mega Mechanics (Donk Damalas and Iron Mike Chark). They named their opponents the Wheat Jammers (Pete Wheat and Pajama Jammy Jam). To decide the outcome of the match, it was agreed that a coin would be flipped. It would be a best of seven, where the winner would be who ever got 4 of heads or tails first. Who was heads, or tails was decided beforehand. Thus the first match was born. The Mega Mechanics ultimately won after a series on "intros". It was a joyous time for all. Pete and Jamil never even knew they were in a match, nor did they now of partaking in future matches. In fact, 95% of human based WBCF characters never had a clue. From that biology class, stemmed some of the greatest wrestlers in WBCF history. Too bad most of them never actually knew about it.


Q: So we know about Chark and Darren, but what about Michael and Yogesh?

A: Yogesh and Mike were always busy with their labs, and would laugh at Chark and Darren for fooling around. Unknown to them, however, was that Darren and Chark would secretly copy their lab and hand it in. After finding out about these exploits, they wanted in on the wrestling. The first feud was created. But it was soon found out that while they could work as a team on the labs, Yogesh and Mike could not agree upon wrestling. Yogesh decided to tag with Birju Khatri from another biology class. They were know as Shawn Packi and Marty Punjabi, The Turbinaters. This team while great, did not last very long. Yogesh became a slew of characters until finally settling on Ramesh Ramon. Birju was given various names, the most noted being Birju B. Badd Mike didn't really get involved until later on, when more wrestlers were created. Then he bought them out, and became known as Million Dollar Mike. He later took on the name of some guy in his Japanese night school class, Spivak.


Q: Can the WBCF time-line be explained?

A: The WBCF time-line is variable. A month can go in half a week, or in 2 weeks. The only thing for sure is that WBCF time is always faster than real time. WBCF continuity, however, remains constant. Meaning that there is a flow to events (no time travelling here).


Q: Why are there not many legitimate records from the past?

A: During the spring of 1995, a rampaging fire destroyed the Fitin' Towers in Yellowknife. Many WBCF records were destroyed as well. Busen Burner then decided to relocate his business to Toronto.


Q: Are there any records left from the early years (old school)?

A: Darren Bischoff managed to grab the main event card from the legendary Whitecellmania 1, before the fire could destroy it. That piece of paper is now the most valuable commodity the WBCF has. It's worth is priceless. Other records that managed to escape the fire where: An old roster/top contender's card; A set of rules and regulations for the re-merging with the "Packi Professional Wrestling Federation"; and various house shows and PPV's.


Q: What was the first main event in WBCF PPV history?

A: The first PPV the WBCF ever had was Whitecellmania 1. The main event featured the Mega Mechanics (Donk Damalas/IMC) vs. Packi Inc. (Ramesh Ramon/Birju B. Badd). Ramesh Ramon shocked the world by announcing that Birju would not be his partner. Instead, it would be IMC's and Donk's young protégé, Lazor Larue. Ramon and Larue won. All five of these men went on to become legends in the sport.


Q: What were the main events in following Whitecellmanias?

A: Since many of the records for these events were destroyed in that infamous fire, many of the Whitecellmanias main events are not on record. Here is what the WBCF does have:

WC1: Donk Damalas/Iron Mike Chark vs. Ramesh Ramon/Lazor Larue
WC2: Iron Mike Chark vs. Ramesh Ramon
WC3: Donk Damalas vs. Iron Mike Chark
WC4: Ramesh Ramon vs. Iron Mike Chark
WC5: Donk Damalas vs. Ramesh Ramon
WC6: no record
WC7: no record
WC8: no record
WC9: no record
WC10: no record
WC11: no record
WC12: Lazor Larue vs. Adam Bomb (or was it Bob?)
WC13: D.A. Cream vs. 4-5-6 Man
WC14: Bad Guy vs. D.A. Cream
WC15: Bad Guy vs. Dark Angel
WC16: Dark Angel vs. Bad Guy vs. Phoenix vs. Sid Mercy
WC17: Dark Angel vs. Sid Mercy


Q: When did the famous Universal belt come to be?

A: In the early years, competition was fierce. Everyone was given equal opportunity, but a few stars rose above the pack. At the time there were 4 titles in the federation: The Heavyweight; The Intercontinental; The Prince of Cable; and the Tag title. These four titles were constantly changing hands. The board decided that the elite grapplers of the WBCF should be given the opportunity to hold a greater title. The opportunity to attain this title would not be given to everyone. In order to get a title shot, a wrestler had to hold each of the other four titles at least once. Thus the introduction of the Universal Contender Rule. The only wrestler given exception to this rule was Spivak, who held the Heavyweight title an unprecedented 10 times. The first Universal Contenders were: Donk Damalas, Iron Mike Chark, Ramesh Ramon, Birju B. Badd, and Spivak.


Q: Who was the first Universal Champion?

A: There has been a great conflict concerning this issue. Some say it was Iron Mike Chark. Others say it was Ramesh Ramon. Because records of this event were destroyed in Yellowknife, no one really can remember. But one thing is for sure, it was indeed one of these two men.


Q: Why did the "Universal Contender" rule become abolished?

A: Donk Damalas was the last "true" Universal Champion. Donk retired shortly after gaining the title. During this time, Heavyweight Champion Spivak also retired, leaving two belts vacant. The WBCF decided to unite both titles as a result, dismissing the Heavyweight belt from it's fold of titles. This was primarily done because of a roster shortage. The move gave top contenders a shot at the title, without having to go through the "Universal Contender" rule. Under the old rule, a wrestler could take years to become a contender.


Q: Why have some titles been dropped or renamed?

A: Many of these moves were done to cater to a depleting roster. Some were done out of dictatorship by WBCF presidents wishing to exemplify their power. The Heavyweight title was the first to be dropped. As a result, the symbolic belt of the WBCF became the Universal. The Prince of Cable was renamed the Prince of PPV. Despite being one of the more popular and competitive titles, this title was merged into the recently created National title. The Intercontinental title was renamed the Global title, and this two was later merged with the National title. The only belts to keep hold of its consistency were the Tag Team titles. The remaining belts today are the Universal, National, and Tag.


Q: Is there a list of title holders?

A: There is only a list of modern day champions. Champions from the past can not be recollected due to their records being destroyed. All early day champions listed are done so on account of memory.


Q: What was the first WBCF show on television?

A: Monday Night Medium Rare was the first. It came on twice a month. The show was canceled in the 94 and later re-emerged as Monday Night Fights in 96. An onslaught of shows followed in its path. Saturday Night Slam, Mid-week R&B, and Thursday Night Live. R&B never took off the ground. Live was canceled due to surprisingly poor ratings (it ran against Seinfeld). Slam was very successful, but due to a low surplus of wrestlers and a poor economic situation, the WBCF has put it on the self and is now focusing all it's attention into it's trump card of BBN television, Fights.


Q: Why was the best out of seven rule modified to a "star-rating" rule?

A: It was felt that it was unfair to the major superstars if everyone had an equal chance of winning. In the best of seven concept, the winner would be the competitor who obtained 4 of a particular side of coin first. Not so with the new and improved ruling. The modern day WBCF implies a rating system. Wrestlers are rated pending their ability. For example, a true jobber would have a star-rating of a two, while a superstar would get a seven star-rating. In order to win, you have to eliminate all of your competitors "stars". For instance, if you fought against someone with a 4 star-rating, you would have to get 4 of your side of the coin. Each call you get in your favor would result in a star loss to you opponent.


Q: Are there any specialty matches in the WBCF?

A: There are many special matches in the WBCF, which can not be done with just one coin. The Battle Royales are done by drawing a competitors name or number from a hat, or the pocket of a knap-sack. If your number comes up, you are eliminated. There are also 3 or 4 man matches in which a die is used. Each competitor is given a number on the die, the remaining numbers are counted as being invalid. Also, in some occurrences, an "even or odd" method is used. The Caribbean Strap match is decided when after an individual's star-rating is depleted, his opponent must get 4 coin flips in a row. Other matches such as the Texas Death match follow a similar path, just varying the number of flips in a row. The dreaded Iron-Man match takes an amazing 10 flips in a row. Needless to say, there are not many of these. In other matches, such as the Steel Cage match or the WBCF's very own Cambodian In The Cupboard match, is settled by flipping two coins at the same time. Both coins have to land on the same side in order for one to lose a star. There are other variations to coin flipping that have not been mentioned, and no doubt, many more will be created.


Q: Are there any special rules when it comes to coin flipping?

A: A coin must be flipped and caught in order to be valid. A coin that in dropped or is obstructed by another object must be "re-done" and "intros" is called. If a coin is flipped and gets lost, the person with the most stars wins via countout. If a coin is batted while in hand or in flip, the perpetrator is disqualified. If a coin is dropped and lands on its side, there is a double disqualification or countout. Of course you can not win a title on a DQ or countout except in Quebec Rules matches. These rules are the norm except in "Anything Goes" and special stipulation matches.


Q: What are deemed to be significant events in the history of the WBCF?
