10 Best Whodunnits in Wrestling History 

"Who Attacked Aleister Black?" was a simple and wise storytelling that shares similarity with the "Who Ran Over Stone Cold Steve Austin?". Aleister was given time after a recovery from IRL injury, which was bad, and NXT brought most of the main suspects and the revelation is still satisfying. Nikki Cross played well on her role.

What were the best whodunnits in wrestling? Cultaholic: They all sucked

If we eventually get the reveal of the Smackdown Hacker and we hear 'IT'S ME AUSTIN!' I don't even think I'll be mad

I am shocked and appalled that "Who ran over Teddy Long" didn't make the list... For shame!

Who trew the pie in the face of Kevin Owens??

Gargano being the guy that attacked Black should of been on here. That was bloody brilliant viewing.

I remember during Who Shot Mr Burns being at school one Monday and my mate said that her big brother thought Maggie did it. Imagine our surprise come the next Sunday...

A “Who shot JR?” story would’ve been interesting

'Who was the 3rd man of the nWo?' led to an intrigue that set the business on fire. The Hogan reveal led to the biggest boom in wrestling history. Cultaholic decides to put Hornswoggle on the list instead...twice

NXT's "Nikki's got a secret!/Who attacked Aleister Black?" arc was top-notch storytelling, in my opinion, and should have been on this list over the anonymous Raw GM I feel.

Triple H being the one who beat up Shawn Michaels was the most obvious twist in the world to me, even back then. If Michaels had been found in a coffin that had been set on fire, in the back of a beer truck, with a dirty sock stuffed in his mouth and a pair of $500 shades lying near the crime scene...I would still have blamed Triple H.

10 underrated faction members

WHO THREW THE PIE AT KEVIN OWENS

My favorite part of this video is that half the entries in this list are how wwe should have booked videos

Hornswoggle was the answer to all the entries on the list (even the one from the 70's) because ...screw you 😆

"Who was the bastard behind these horrific acts?" This pretty much describes the bulk of Vince's decisions for quite some time.

"IT WAS ME AUSTIN, IT WAS ME ALL ALONG!!!!!!" - Vince McMahon during the ministry of darkness leadership angle

Umm...HELLOOOOOO! WHO IS THE THIRD OUTSIDER, 1996?

It’s actually quite depressing to see how many of these turned out to be shite.

Who else thought al Perez was Seth Rollins ?

The best whodunnit in WWE is who ran over Teddy Long

Random out cold bodies turning up left and right until Killer Kross showed up in impact is definitely worth the honorable mention here

No matter how many times I see it the higher power reveal just gets better every single time.

Aces and 8s story was great and bully Ray being behind it all was perfect

Surprised the White Hummer hitting Kevin Nash storyline was not on the list. That was an intriguing storyline.

"The GM would remain anonymous to avoid favouritism" Wait that doesn't even work because he can definitely still practice favouritism and it's actually worse because now you wouldn't be able to detect favouritism since you don't know the GMs connection to said wrestlers?

Number one should've been who was the 3rd man on the Outsiders team. That changed the landscape of wrestling in the mid 90's.

Austin saving Steph is still my favorite Austin moment...

I recall reading that the original idea was that the Black Scorpipn was going to be the Ultimate Warrior. WCW thought they could get him signed before the angle finished

Could you imagine Stone cold & The Rock vs Hbk and HHH in a Tag team match?🤔 🔥

I have an interesting idea for a list, Top 10 Wrestlers who were called up to early. Basically wrestlers who were moved to the main roster despite being no way near ready.

I remember Eric Bischoff revealing the initials of the Great Power on Nitro before the segment on Raw. Must have had the info through the Kliq considering both shows were live that night haha

Hornswoggle should've been behind all these mysteries. Leader of the Ministry? HORNSWOGGLE Undertaker's wife's stalker? HORNSWOGGLE Who ran over the Rock? HORNSWOGGLE The Masked Rider? You guessed it, HORNSWOGGLE

WHEN JIM CORNETTE THE ROAD WARRIORS WERE GOING OUT THE DOOR, THAT WAS FUNNY!!! I LAUGHED WAY LOUDER AND HARDER THAN I SHOULD HAVE

I still laugh at how the "anonymous GM" was put in to prevent favoritism, pretty sure even if noone knew who it was, the gm could pick theyre favourite anyway 😂😂😂

I wish Aleistar Black’s nxt angle was on here. It was really intriguing the way it was set up and involving nikki cross made it so fun

this guy's videos always crack me up🤣🤣🤣

the black scorpion angle was probably my first big interest after starting to watch wreslting earlier in 1990. started around early to mid april so by the time black scorpion was starting i was only then starting to catch on to stuff. al perez i think would have made a great angle finish if they'd handled it right though i don't think him and sting had any past other than maybe brief times togehter in memphis or elsewhere. i also didn't know that ultimate warrior who was wwf champ was stings former partner. Now that could have been great storyline wise but not sure the matches would have been. With all the heat wcw took signing luger away from wwe (or as he tells it i wasn't even under contract anyways just a night to night deal) and the ladys title in the trash can a few weeks later this would have put wcw over the top back then. of course those pesky contracts would have been a problem.

I remember Dusty & Magnum TA disguised as The James Boys in NWA.

great video.

Who ran over Stone Cold: It wasn't Triple H It wasn't Triple H It wasn't Steve Blackman It wasn't Triple H It wasn't Triple H It was Rikishi. He did it for the rock. It wasn't Triple H It was Triple H. Shock of the century

Hornswoggle as Mr McMahon’s son was hilarious

I was gonna say "what was in Taker's lockbox?" but then I remembered it was a whodunnit, not just a general mystery.

Kurt's son should have been Chad. I truly think that would have went over well. Yes Kurt is a family man.. NOW but college was a long time ago so it wasn't unrealistic. That Styles affair was ridiculous though.

I didn't watch TNA but that aces and eights whodunit looked like a well put together story

I have never thought about the fact that most wrestling “whodunnits” really fall flat lol

I think I’ve heard “-insert 90s year here- was hard for WCW” more than any other line on this channel

It is a travesty that the "Who Attacked Aleister Black" story was not included on this list, especially considering the first two entries on this list AREN'T WHODUNITS.

I'm drunk. Who dunnit? What a mystery?!

Fun fact about the Black Scorpion storyline, it was initially set up because Bill Watts thought the fans were getting sick of seeing Sting wrestle Flair. After Al Perez quit WCW they had Sting work house shows against various lower-tier workers portraying the Scorpion, and eventually it was decided Barry Windham would be revealed as the character at Starrcade ‘90. Flair ultimately wound up volunteering to be the one under the mask ostensibly because he thought the gimmick might hurt Windham’s career.

The Vince McMahon angle where his limo exploded would’ve been so good. It’s a shame that the Benoit tragedy happened at the same time :(

The Higher Power should have been Ted DiBiase. But that would have made way too much sense.

Punk as Vince’s son. Reminds me of of those days in [name redacted]

I LOVED the Taker, Sara and DDP story.

11. Who thought that giving Hogan creative control in WCW was a good idea?

I think you guys should do a video where yall tell us who you guys would rather be the culprit in these storylines

I think the Cultaholic guys have already talked about this but I'll say it for people who may not know. Christopher Daniels was originally meant to be the leader of the ministry but Daniels had left WWE and Vince couldn't find anyone else to do it so he just played the leader himself.

Advice in this video that would make almost every whodunit storyline better: Sometimes the most obvious answer is the best one

Bruh the black scorpion really be like “ IT WAS ME STING IT WAS ME ALL ALONG”

Smackdown hacker still ongoing lololololol

What’s the name of the background song

It would have been more interesting if Cole was revealed to be the Raw GM or that the Raw GM wasn't as biased as Cole made them out to be and he was simply saying what he wanted to see. Daniels or a returning Jake the Snake would have been good, but at the same time, it wouldn't have ended well for either. Jake was in the middle of dealing with his demons, and Daniels small size would have lead to Vince probably making himself the leader anyway after making Daniels look like a putz.

What's inside the Turkey Egg? seriously not here XD

I saw all these who done it and they all made sense to me

I know the video is about Whodunnits, but I would love to finally find out who was behind the mysterious GTV hidden camera bits? I think I'd heard it was supposed to be Goldust, but that was probably just a crazy rumor thrown out by dirt sheets.

It was rumored that the higher power was supposed to be Christopher Daniels, but because he was under 6ft., Vince said no and made himself the higher power instead.

What happened with the Kurt & Stephanie story at that hotel lol

The straight edge society’s mystery man during Rey Mysterio rivalry

It infuriates me to this day that WWE broke up American Alpha just to force Jason Jordan into a singles run that he wasn't even ready for.

You know what is better than them all? "who ran over teddy long?"

good video

Midnight Rider was a G!! I never knew who it was LOL!! Also who was Black Scorpion, and Mr . American , and also The Machines!!

Stone cold getting run over was really interesting. Until we actually found out who did it

The buildups on some of the Whodunnits were really good, but the reveals left something to be desired. I mean Hornswoggle TWICE? Vince as the higher power?

I loved who attacked Nikki Bella at survivor series. Really wasn’t expecting Natalya to go off like that

WHO THREW THE PIE IN KEVIN OWEN'S FACE!!

Aces and 8's is what an invasion is meant to be. Legit great shit.

Damn are we sure Al Perez is NOT Seth Rollins' daddy?

Very shocked “Who was the 3rd man” at Bash at the Beach 96 NWO angle didn’t make it

Why does no one remember that Rikishi wasn't even IN THE COMPANY when Stone Cold was run over?!

Who blew up mr McMahons limo??

Vince as the Higher Power BETTER NOT be on the list... that was the worst, biggest letdown literally ever.

I'm surprised who was the number one entrant in the 2004 Royal Rumble didn't make the list

2018 story of who attacked black was great... With black giving ultimatum, Regal going full detective, involvement of Nikki, to move sensible reveal

Who's in the limo?!!! WHO is in the limo!

thanks!

you forgot one of the best whodunnit who has attacked Aleister Black at NXT

The top 10 whodunits: They're all Hornswaggle.

Rumor has it that Christopher Daniel's who was wrestling for OVW at the time was supposed to be the higher power but Vince said he was to small

I wish the midnight rider could come back. Will always miss you Dusty

The #1 whodunnit is clearly who moved the briefcase at KotR

Im surprised that neither Millennium countdown or the save us Y2J storylines were on here.

Who shot jr "not that one"😂

Rikishi was a savage

Triple h said YOU NEVER SAW IT COMMING

The anonymous General Manager should've been revealed to be John Laurinitis. It made the most sense.

This video would be even better if the answer to every one of these mysteries was HORNSWOGGLE

Rikishi being revealed as the one who ran over Stone Cold was the dumbest thing I've seen

Funny thing about the DDP one I didn’t watch WCW so I had no clue who Diamond Dallas Paige was so when the reviled he was stalking Undertakers wife I was like who’s DDP

Al Perez looks damnear identical to Seth Rollins. It’s crazy how similar they look
