Before Tony Khan wearing a neckbrace to sell his AEW injury on the NFL draft, what other examples of wrestling people selling injuries on mainstream TV are there? I can only think of Jim Cornette wearing a neckbrace on Regis & Kathy Lee over 30 years ago, and that was especially noteable because it was an injury sustained in SMW, while he was on the show promoting WWF SummerSlam '93.

Did WCW ever mention it by name?

The WWF missed out on a great gimmick when Henry and Phineas stopped being pig farmers and became Jeff Jarrett's henchmen. Why call them Southern Justice when they could have been "Godwinns Law".

Has anyone read "Ballyhoo!: The Roughhousers, Con Artists, and Wildmen Who Invented Professional Wrestling (Sports and American Culture)"?

Undertaker showed up in Saudi Arabia to present a soccer trophy. This is how RONALDO REACTED TO UNDERTAKER presented Riyadh Season Cup trophy in Al-Nassr vs Al-Hilal - YouTube

Disgraceful scenes at West Brom vs Wolves.

I remember the Mongolian Mauler for having a cup of coffee in WCW in 1990, including being in the finals of the "African tournament" to be in the Pat 'O Connor Memorial Tag Team Tournament at Starrcade '90. He also wrestled in Britain for quite a few years, notably appearing in the Robbie Brookside Video Diaries documentary in 1993. RIP.

IMO Bruiser Brody would have come into the WWF and got the run that Bad News Brown actually got.

Are tag teams of two already inducted wrestlers eligible for the HOF? Eg Stevens & Patterson, Bockwinkel & Stevens, Bruiser & Crusher?

I don't know why it's come out so small but if you click on it, it's the first few pages of the novel. Looks dreadful.

Bobby Eaton Sherri Martel Buddy Landel Vader Davey Boy Smith Owen Hart Yokozuna Mantaur Jimmy Del Ray Rip Oliver Dick Murdoch That's 11 just off the top of my head. There's definitely more if you consider all the guys Cornette managed in Memphis when he was Jimmy Hart's assistant.

Were there any other wrestling Adrians?
