Where did some of these rumors come from?
So in the Buu arc overall was a fun a arc but propbably the weakest for me in the Z portion of the series. There was some rumors I remember years ago hearing that their was some changes. Apparently from what i heard, it was to be Piccolo and not Vegeta to be possessed by Babbidi. As well another one is Tien was supposed to awaken his third eye's true power and he was supposed to have a bogger battle with Buutenks.
Where did these rumors come from? I haven't seen anything that gives these points legitemency but I see some people saying this was supposed to be.

Re: Where did some of these rumors come from?
I have never heard those rumors to be honest. Honestly due to DBZ in English being way behind the Japanese versiom most of the information I ever saw online before well before the Buu saga hit Toonami was pretty damn accurate. Just those weird things like sometimes it was Buu and sometimes it was Boo but the information was always correct
I was actually pretty mad how long it seemed to take Toonami to get anywhere because thanks to the Internet in 2000 I pretty much knew all the details of the Buu saga
The only rumors I ever remember hearing where:
Toriyama wanted to end it on the Freeza saga but his editor or fans (depending on the source) convinced him to keep going
Then he wanted to end on the Cell saga but his wife or fans (again varied by source) convinced him to do one more
Then Gohan was suppose to be the main hero of the Buu saga but Japanese fans demanded Goku to be the hero.
I assume all those rumors are a byproduct of fans looking how asspull-y and writing by the seat of your pants and making it up as you go along the Z half of Dragon Ball was and this was just justification that spread like wildfire

Re: Where did some of these rumors come from?
The easiest way to answer, I guess, would be to ask "Where did I hear these rumors".
I haven't heard those ones before.

I’ve heard the Majin Piccolo rumor before but never anything about Tien vs Buutenks

Re: Where did some of these rumors come from?
I'm pretty sure the Majin Piccolo rumor came from the DB wiki and people took it as a fact since then. Vegeta blowing up the Tenkachi Budokai ring did felt like a throwback to Piccolo blowing it up back in the day. So fans probably assume that scene was written with Piccolo in mind.
