I have literally hundreds of wrestling vidjamagame stories with my friends. We went nuts with create-a-wrestler (but then again so did everyone it seems) Some of my faves include:
-When 2k first came out the first thing we did was make create a clones of ourselves and then named one of the group the 'video wrestling commissioner'. He declared that myself and another friend would be tag team champs if we could beat the Acolytes in a match. So we put the game on hard (based on the fact that we obliterated hard mode on WCW/NWO revenge) and started fighting. Now I should tell you if you don't already know this, but hard mode on WCW/NWO is easier than easy mode on WM2K. The fight went awry for us very quickly, and Farooq gets his special, well as a man who appreciates heels and all they do, I grab a guitar and rush in the ring to blast Farooq with it, only he ducks, I clock my friend, get hit with the Dominator, and that was that. It was a perfect end to the match though.
-I forget the name of it but there was a wrestling game for the Gamecube that featured Hell in the Cell. Not too long after we got it we decided to have a tag team tornado Hell in the Cell. Knowing the caged ceiling can break while up there, we all proceeded to climb the cage as soon as the match starts. We are fighting, and I get my special, which at the time was the rolling German suplex. I use it, and as I am rolling my opponent around, the last suplex hits right where both my partner and opponent's partner are fighting. The cage then collapses, everyone but me falls through the ring, and there's nothing left for me to do but pose.
-We had an acquaintance (won't call him friend, he was creepy and it turns out he is 'allegedly' a pedophile) who used to make the stupidest create-a-wrestlers. He made a guy with long arms that he was all excited about. When he left we edited the shit out of it, turned it green, gave it googly eyes, and named him Ganglio. Then we made a clone of him, made him brown, and called him Danglio and named them the shitty tag team champs.
-More create-a-wrestler hijinx included Jesus Christ who did the razors edge as a finisher. Fro 'Nuff, a Sho 'Nuff clone with a big afro. Mmmmm Budda, a fat guy named after a fat friend who could not spell Buddha correctly. A laundry list of inside joke create-a-wrestlers that I won't go into, and so on.

Just a more graphic-y version with a couple expansions (orcs and dwarves)

I feel bad because we told this one guy that Original H was Triple H's grandfather and so he always played as him.

We convinced a friend that HHH stood for Hungry Hungry Hippos. We would tell him "Why do you think he always says 'I am the game'."
