I saw Tommy Dreamer speak at an event a few months ago and he told a story (apologies if this is also in the podcast, I haven't listened to it) about wanting to get actually, legitimately shot with a sniper rifle for an angle. He thought it would really sell some ECW storyline if someone hired a sniper and shot him for real, but in the shoulder or arm or something, so he wouldn't actually die. Paul Heyman liked the idea, but was mostly worried about the shooter missing and hitting a fan, leading to a lawsuit.
Terry Funk eventually talked them out of it, but hilariously his reasoning was that if someone shoots you and you don't legitimately murder him in your next match, you'll lose credibility with the fans and kill the promotion. He cited a time his father had been legitimately shot in the *** during a match and the same thing happened.

...is that from the gallows/Anderson appearance on Jericho's podcast?
