So I was just going through the item pages, and I don't know if anyone has already mentioned this somewhere, but Messerschmidt's Reaver is making an appearance in D3 apparently:

http://us.battle.net/d3/en/item/messerschmidts-reaver

Actually, its from D2: http://classic.battle.net/diablo2exp/items/elite/uaxes.shtml

scroll down its the one above the last

Yea I was actually just about to edit the post. Nevermind. Move along, nothing to see here

And from D1: http://www.diablowiki.com/Messerschmidt's_Reaver_(Diablo_I)#Axes

Edit: Also add ")" at the end... <_<

While I know of no DOTA references, there is a reference to Max Schaefer (Executive Producer, D1, D2, D2:LoD): http://us.battle.net/d3/en/item/schaefers-hammer

Oh yes, yes! yes!

Yeah Dota has loads of easter eggs, and some from the Diablo series.

Eaglehorn, Messerschmidts, Buriza and of course the infamous "FRESH MEAT" with Pudge's ulti are the ones I can remember atm

You got your Diablo in my DotA! I think you would be hard-pressed to find something in DotA that WASN'T an easter egg

The biggest cross-reference is Leoric, the Skeleton King in Warcraft 3's DotA. Which was referenced from Diablo I. Which is, again, in Diablo III =]

Oh man how could I forget that

Schaefer's Hammer was actually a weapon in Diablo II as well. I found it a few months ago.

There were loads of diablo 2 references in DOTA. I would be surprised to see if there was a reference from DOTA in diablo 3 tho. Warcraft 3 references, yes. DOTA, no.
