Here're a few of my thought/clarifications on the list that was posted earlier. Note that one man's opinion is another man's bald-faced lie and take with a lil' salt.
On an unrelated note - this is my first post. Yay first post! Michael King Cole - Michael Cole - 1. The nursery rhyme begining - 'Old King Cole was a Merry old soul; And a merry old soul was he...' 2. Nat King Cole
Tazzzzzzzzzzz - Tazz - Mocking the addition of the 'z' - most likely a trademark issue
Chris Thursday Jericho - Chris Jericho - A reference to the Chris 'Monday' Jericho bit from his WCW days.
Rikashmoney - Rikishi - A 'Cash Money Brother'? ('New Jack City') or perhaps just a jibe at the attempt to hip-hop the Samoan while with Scotty 2Hotty/GM Sexay
Billionaire Vince - Mr./Vince McMahon - A reference to the Billionaire Ted skits from the nadir of the WWF - think Nach Man and the Huckster to imagine the quality
Dr. Teeth - Diamond Dallas Page - The pianist from The Muppets Band ('the Electric Mayhem') with outlandishly large teeth, featuring the one gold tooth. I now think that the glint they put on DDPs smile in early promos is even funnier.
THE NARCISSIteST - Test - A derogatory comparison to Lex Luger (The Narcissist)
Kane Had Nothing Better to do Tonight - Kane - (Gratuitous run-in||throw away match) == Kane
Well It's the Big Show - Big Show - The theme that was so bad you knew it was going to stick - y'know it doesn't even bother me now

Juvenile, who recorded "Back that Ass Up," is on Cash Money Records.

I always assumed this was a reference to "Making a Difference" Fatu. Near the end of his run, he was being stalked by two other Samoan wrestlers, who I think went by the name "Cash Money" or something like that...
Are you ready for Mahkan-mania to run wild all over you?

While I am sure that the extra Zs are a poke at the trademark spelling, for me - the extra Zs was a way to relate that the viewer would be put to sleep by a Tazz match.
Of course, I might be out on an island on that one.
Tazz WRESTLES?!? You've gotta be kidding me dude. [/sarcasm]
I don't think Tazz wrestles poorly, I just think that he's been booked so poorly that nobody gives a damn anymore. I know I don't. Too bad he never actually got to, you know, win against Steve Austin during that whole Invasion thing. Ah well.
