First   while starting this off.... CHECK out and support when you can. FemmeFight and the catfight video producers. It is thanks to them, we have this place to play!! Helps Pay to keep the lights on at FCF!!

NOW on to this section ... PRO wrestling ... everything pro ... let's chat it here...
From the major companies.. To maybe local or area companies, and the up and coming talent, to look for in the future.

From past greats and icons... to your current faves of today.
Bitter rivalries... maybe hardcore mayhem.. to sexy divas. Who do you like and why??

PPV events, to classic matches.
Which wrestlers do you like the most??  What fave moves do they use?

From known news to possible gossip from insiders. Diva and knockout  or maybe Diva VS Knockout!! LOT of independant companies out there. Maybe one of your faves, has left majors, looking to work their way back up.

WHICH Diva would you LOVE to CATFIGHT and why??

MAIN theme .. anything and everything pro wrestling ...

To start it off.. if I had to choose only one ...
Probably for fave.. even though they did stupid move wrestlemania... Undertaker ... Saw him before WWE/F when he was simply part of the skyscrapers, with Danny Spivey.. Think it was in Nwa/ wcw before all the Nwo themes. Mean Mark ... using the heart punch. Taught by Ox Baker.
THEN of course... debut as Undertaker.. when he stuffed Coco Beware ... survivor series match...
Lot of awesome events and things they did with this character through the years...  Levetating in the rafters to lightning bolts hitting the ring, before it collapses beneath Kurt Angle.
Not to mention choke slamming Edge through the mat, before flames came up .. YEahhh choke slammed to hell ..

One other thing that impressed me with him. During the Monday night wars... Raw/ Nitro era.. EVERYONE was jumping from one company to the other. HE stayed true to the brand so to speak... Stayed with McMahon and company the whole time.

TAG teams ...  L.O.D.  Road Warriors Animal and Hawk ...  Riding motorcycles down to the ring in Wimbley stadium think it was early PPV event.
OHhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh What a RUSHHhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!!
Just always was a blast seeing this team.

Divas // Knockouts ... Have met a lot of them RL So not easy to call ... Still wish to meet Victoria/ Tara someday..
Anyways .... Dawn Marie .. May not have been everyones fave.. May not have done overly active wrestling in the ring. Yet always just seemed so damn sexy ....
Trish Stratus ,,,, Happened to see her Hall of fame induction on video. She is right there with Lita, Molly Holly, Torrie, and others that time.
What impressed the most .. real reason she retired. Was to be there for her mother, who was fighting cancer.

Knockouts ... Tie between  Traci Brooks .. OMG gorgeous in person!!  Velvet Sky .. Another on the hope to meet someday.
Special shout out to Gail Kim ...

THEN shutting up for now.. turning this over to everyone else....

Let's hear from you !!

Isn't Sara pretty much inactive these days as a trainer at NXT or does she still do indy shows?

How about you and me take on Joey Ryan and Candace LeRae?

:) :) :) :) :) :) :) :) :) :) :)

I wouldn't want to catfight any of them, but I would love to WRESTLE many of them.  I personally would rather face one of the knockouts or former knockouts instead of most of the WWE Divas, who I haven't exactly been impressed with in terms of their wrestling skills vs. what I have seen in TNA.  There are a few indy girls that I think would be fun to wrestle too.   ;) ;) ;) ;) ;) ;) ;) ;) ;)

I wanted to have it Divas and Knockouts .. Yet subject line only holds so much !!

FEEL free to discuss ANYTHING PRO WRESTLING HERE !!  I added in catfighting to open it up, relevant to forum. YET feel free to discuss anything with the pro wrestling world.. Past present.. major companies to the independant ones..

What happened most recent shows Raw, Smackdown Tna.. Leading to PPV events and rivalries!!

BTW  STING finally showing in WWE??  Heard something with this in passing..
Actually many years ago .. Think he actually was there.. for a NON royal rumble battle royal match. Simply as Steve Borden.

They just had them all come out start walking to the ring, while announcing their names. Maybe on a Raw episode.. Don't think it was PPV..

ANYONE else info with this??

I'm game for that as long as you agree to run in and lariat Joey off me if he tries his corner shit.  I ain't bein' teabagged!

In return I'll put Candace in enough armbreakers that she'll have a hard time goozling your plums.

I'll keep him from sleezing you up and maybe Boobplex Candace some.  Then we can take over their Youtube show.

Cross promotion match .... Who do you think would win between Kane and the monster Abyss??

Also Rosita .. OMG she is beautiful yet Soooooooooo tiny!! I mean lovely face, nice figure. Yet even with those boots on, don't think she is over 5 ft.  Any idea how tall this spicy Latina is??

As for wrestling a Diva.....I don't know....Junkees a little big...but let me think about it

As for my list I would love to wrestle :

Trish Stratus
Either one of the bella twins
A J Lee cause I would want to slam her thru the mat
Miss Tessmocker (TNA) for the same reason as AJ
Any of the beautiful people (TNA) so I can spank ther asses
And finaly my fellow Virginian (who I have met irl) Mickie James


Now for my online oppnets who Ihave posted her I want :
EVA (She is tough to catch free when online shows how good and popular she is)
Michelle ( good friend whom I admire her alot)

The purple Vixen ( cause she fascinates me)

And Gemma Rox ( cause I want to renew our rivalary)

Her real name is Thea Trinidad, she is 5'0" 99 lbs - would love to give her "Che's Revenge"

Actually have been getting N catching up. With a lot of older TNA PPV ... They had special opening for 10 year anniversary of 9/11 for PPV Event.
Talked with Thea ... she lost her father in one of the towers.  Says her mother does not care for the wrestling. Yet he was the one inspired her to get into the business.
Thought that was cool, they let her open up about it a little.

Seems to be a very impressive lady.

THAT said ANYTHING CURRENT and NEW Major companies?? Rivalries or upcoming PPV build ups??

They were King Jerry Lawler's midgets, known as the Royal Family in one of the survivor series when they took on Doink the Clown and the midget clowns Dink and forgot the other 2 names.

Vinnie Vegas and Oz also was known as Diesel and Big Sexy aka Kevin Nash  :D

And Jerry the King was one of my favorites growing up.....I thought he was so awesome

Then the Honky Tonk Man and Jimmy Hart, The Mouth of the South....I'd throw  pillows at the TV when they came on...

CM Punk will always be my all time favorite because he risked it all to change pro wrestling forever

As far as Diva's go, just list everyone in alphabetical order because I'd prefer to take my time and go down the list one at a time...I'm not picky

Vinnie Vegas and the Diamond Studd were both brought in as enforcers for DDP during his Vegas mob heel run.

Then years later he became the last man standing against the nWo led by the Outsiders, Vinnie Vegas and the Diamond Studd.

Wrestling is awesome.

As much as I'd love to relive the Steenerico Feud - and I would - NXT would kill Steen.  Vince hates fat guys and he wouldn't be allowed to use half his moveset.

Because Bray's the best promo guy he's had since Jake Roberts discovered crack.

Steen's a fun promo, but only when he's allowed to curse a blue streak.  He can't touch Bray.

MICHELLE .. THANKS for the feedback that song ... Having a lot of music tastes...  including some of the symphonic metal Nightwish, Within Temptation, and to Leaves Eyes. This kind of fits in.
Nice haunting melody ...

So curious .. Don't think anyone has mentioned wanting to hook up against Tara .....

Angelina Love... Have to give the lady props .. Know she was having some personal probs for awhile. When she showed up siding Winter. She was looking seriously buff, and cut. More gym time athlete, than just a beautiful face.

Ok since Carmen did so wonderful nailing both trivia questions ...  As well as some other wrestling afficianados adding in more details.
Here we go ...

What world famous wrestler ... briefly was talking about having one last silver dollar. While hiding his identity, as a masked cowboy, going as.
The Midnight Rider??

What was special about the skywalker match?? What famed loud mouth manager, was injured for real, resulting from this event?

THAT posted .... Any tag teams ... Hot and making a name for themselves currently?? Any promotion.

1.  Dusty Rhodes - based on the Allman Brothers Song "Midnight Rider" having "One Last Silver Dollar"

2.  I think it was the first scaffold match?  Road Warriors and Midnight Express or something?  I wasn't watching NWA back then but I seem to remember

3.  Hot tag teams - None other than Caliente Y Loca.  Hot is in our NAME  :D

1. There was never any photographic evidence that Dusty was the Midnight Rider! *wink*

2.  Road Warriors vs The Midnight Express was called "Night of the Skywalkers."  Jim Cornette dropped from the scaffolding and missed being caught by Big Bubba Rogers and ended up seriously injured.

3. Tag Teams? I'm liking the Wolves in TNA and I'm sorry Bad Influence got shown the door. Ugh.

FOR Jobber Joy and the many fans of them.. LET's not forget Lacey Von Erich  had a run with the beautiful people as well ...

OK kudos to red on the trivia ..

Yep is was Dusty as the midnight rider ...

Skywalker match..  Scaffolding over ring .. They had to climb up opposite sides. Then meet on the section between, and over the ring.
Jim Cornette tried a hang and drop, after being surrounded. I think Bubba had been taken out momentarily.
Cornette blew his knee out, in a bad landing.

THIS all in mind ..... Some people enjoy corn on the cob, during summer cookouts.
What character is Big Bubba better known as??   Yeahh kind of snuck a hint in ...  Maybe ask your guardian angel for help??   ;D

Holy crap I thought Adam Copeland was with Lita RL ...  THANKS Callista!!

The 2nd Doink who attacked Crush at Wrestlemania IX was Steve Keirn, who also played Skinner, and later had a cup of coffee in WCW tagging with Bobby Eaton.

The most famous gimmick of Barry Darsow (Repo Man) is probably Smash of Demolition. Others included Krusher Kruschev, the Blacktop Bully, and Stewart Pain, a golfing gimmick which was later changed to "Mr. Hole-in-One" Barry Darsow.

I always thought Matt Bourne's Bourne Again gimmick in ECW was an underappreciated masterpiece.  Now THERE'S an evil clown, turning people into clowns after he beats them.

Also an underappreciated Masterpiece: Chris Masters.

Beth Phoenix has already given birth to Edge's baby.

Lita was with CM Punk until recently when he started dating AJ Lee whom Punk is now engaged to and supposedly marrying in June.

Steve Keirn was also pretty damn good tagging with Stan Lane as one of the Fabulous Ones (Bow ties are cool!)

So who's had more gimmicks? Darsow or Ed Leslie?

Quote from: RedEnforcer on May 27, 2014, 06:05:30 AM
Ed Leslie?

"YES!  NO!  YES!  NO!"

"Come back" in the Hindu reincarnation sense, maybe. Hall, Nash, and Michaels are not in shape to wrestle anymore, and I'm not sure what a 41 year-old Sean Waltman would be bringing to the table.

Wow, that Cobb hint was really bad.

But I'm gonna hold back on answering this question like a boss.

Ok wowww you are looking to make it some hard time, for the others not answering. 

Ok since no one is answering - it was the Big Boss Man, a prison guard from Cobb County Georgia with song "Hard Time"

Can you prove it wasn't Doink?

my favourite moment in pro wrestling because it was just done so well & was so believable was the night scott steiner joined the nwo,the nwo members at the time nash,jarret & bret hart kept referring to"scott would join them by the end of the night",everyone thought they meant scott hall,meanwhile scott steiner came out with his brother to bid a teary retirement due to various injuries,the nwo interrupted,cant remember the exact details after that i tried to find the footage online but cant,but some wrestlers came out to defend steiner,he turned on them joining the nwo in the best most believable scene ive seen

favourite diva is melina,just know that how she was on the job is how she is in real life & she would win & be in a catfight on a regular basis

diva id most like to fight is kelly kelly,because unlike most of the others id have to be some chance against her,also the fact that firstly melina then beth phoenix & anyone else that kelly kelly actually beat had to job to her made the diva division an even bigger joke than it already is

Melina ... OMG she is such a sweetheart RL ... You see her as this screeching hellion on the show.
RL ... happened to bring her a single rose at meet and greet. Someone else did something for her about same time.. She was starting to get all misty eyed.

Fave moments ..  Undertaker ...  Wonder how much of this could actually be seen in the arena. Kurt Angle was standing in the ring. Heading to a PPV event showdown, jawjacking as usual.
Taker comes out .. lightning bolts seem to shoot from his hands to above the ring. They come down from there to the ring. Then the ring starts to collapse with Angle still in it.. Very cool!!

Again Taker moment .. Casket match with Yokazuno .. Taker winning.. Then like everyone begins coming down. Diesel, Adam Bomb , Jeff Jarrett among them.
They finally get taker into casket. Begin rolling it out. Smoke starts coming out ..  See him on the jumbotron, supposedly in casket.
Makes his speech.. image explodes on jumbotron. Then you see him being levitated up in the rafters.
(Of course this soon leading to undertaker Vs undertaker match.

The 2nd Doink who attacked Crush at Wrestlemania IX was Steve Keirn, who also played Skinner, and later had a cup of coffee in WCW tagging with Bobby Eaton.

The most famous gimmick of Barry Darsow (Repo Man) is probably Smash of Demolition. Others included Krusher Kruschev, the Blacktop Bully, and Stewart Pain, a golfing gimmick which was later changed to "Mr. Hole-in-One" Barry Darsow.

QuoteHoly crap I thought Adam Copeland was with Lita RL ...  THANKS Callista!!

Callista U R kicking ass here. So glad you looked in, and started adding to things here. Had forgotten the gator man Skinner ..  Yuckkk and that nasty chaw cup!!

Interesting about Darsow .. He actually trained and did some bouncer work.. with members of L.O.D !! Before they began making names for themselves pro wrestling.

I'm not sure what a 41 year-old Sean Waltman would be bringing to the table.

A surgically-repaired asshole and the thousand-yard stare of someone who's fucked Chyna.

When Doink and Chyna come back...just remember an old Chinese proverb...


"Always be yourself....unless you can be a unicorn......then always be a unicorn"

To the point about tag teams, El Local and Kalisto are looking amazing in NXT. Can't wait to see them holding gold. Also, I hate that they've left TNA, but Bad Influence is strongly rumored to reunite in ROH. Daniels will already be at Best in the World.

Frankly, anyone can take the belts off the Ass-sention and I'll be grateful.  Viktor's a decent working hand but I dunno why he stole the Ossirian Portal's tights ... and Conner is a big stupid walking shoulderblock with rat ears.

And the Fall of Man was way better when Cade and Murdoch did it and it was the Sweet and Sour.

Chyna did briefly make the scene in TNA .. siding Kurt Angle against his ex and Jeff Jarrett ...

Telling ya ..If I Ever get to pick a quiz bowl team .. Callista so showing her styling N profiling knowledge for wrestling .. Da Empress Michelle for Movies N music always a wise choice ... The Purple Vixen to work her sorcerous ways on the opposing team. Dazzling with her deadly wit and equally dangerous knowledge many areas.
If that don't work, bring in red to give the other team a few chair shots!!  He he he.

Teams in mind ... Probably have them split up by now.. Yet Motor City Machine Guns had some fantastic teamwork, and double team moves. Anything current Alex Shelley N Chris Sabin??

Liking a lot of good vibe from everyone on Nxt !!

Cade .. Hard to believe he is already added to the list of wrestlers died to early in life.

Storm

Alex Shelley is working in New Japan Pro Wrestling teamed up with Kushida as the Time Splitters. Pretty good tag team.

Sabin was just recently released from TNA so I'm not sure what he's doing.

Thanks on update red ....  I think it was bad decisions.. like Nash and company did end of Ecw ... That impact TNA recently. See some of the same moves when Hogan and company hit town.
Like getting rid of the signature six sided ring  ... Lethal lockdown I like... reminds me of old War Games. Think that was better, having 2 rings connected though. Gave them a lot more room to maneuver.

I think Motor City Machine Guns .. Had the chemistry and style. They could have promoted or given more time at the top to. Yet what do we fans know right??

TRIVIA TIME ..
Which very skilled trio ... arrived ringside. Riding their Juan deere tractors??

Yeah but whatever they did, Juvi was gonna fuck it up sooner or later, so it's just as well they didn't run anything with potential.

I know..I know...

It's funny, Jimmy Jacobs tweeted out "That's my boy" and in that context, it makes sense. At least now, it looks like those 5 will still be involved against each other, probably leading to SummerSlam, but it adds to questions about what's going to happen next.

What the fuck was that?  WWE is going back to being stupid and they need to fire some writers.  Ok Deacon Dave Batista quitting, yeah I can see that big fuckin deal, he's old.  I was half expecting him to return at the end and say "hahahaha fooled you guys" when Reigns and Orton were fighting.  However, you destroy the best thing WWE has had going for it in years a day after you job Bray Wyatt to Cena who no one likes.  I am hoping there is someone in NXT who can join the shield to get them back to where they were... or how's this for a swerve?  Deacon Dave returns and joins the shield? nahhhh...

Of all the Shield members I thought would turn, it would be Reigns.  Rollins seemed the most face of the 3.

The Soap Opera that is Daniel Bryan

The wrestling world was a bit surprised when Stephanie McMahon revealed plans for the WWE world title at Money in the Bank. According to one report, there is more truth in this new angle than fiction and we may be seeing the end of Daniel Bryan as WWE champion.

Stephanie dropped the bomb shell on RAW Monday night. McMahon told the world that Bryan would either have to show up to Money in the Bank with clearance to defend the title against Kane or the belt would be stripped. McMahon went on to say that a new champion would be crowned that night as MITB would be for the vacant title. This wasn't supposed to be the way the Yes Movement came to an end.

This plan was hatched on Monday when word reportedly got back to the company that the prognosis on Bryan's neck was not good. Meltzer intimated that Bryan may be out later than anticipated. The company felt that the lack of a title match hurt Payback and wasn't going to allow that for Money in the Bank.

Nobody is sure whether Bryan will be able to wrestle at MITB and this is the WWE's way of putting pressure on Bryan to come back early.

At some point they have to move on, especially if Bryan will be back later than expected. This is a business and in this business it is important to have a wrestling WWE champion. It's not like they went out of their way to screw him. It's unfortunate but the show must go on.

On the other hand, it is frankly disgusting that the WWE would be pressuring Bryan to come back early from a neck injury. As we have seen in the past, careers can be shortened when that happens. They should just make it easy and strip him of the belt, taking pressure off of him. In addition, they invested a lot of time and money into him. Could his WrestleMania 30 moment be all for nothing? With all of the time and money invested into Bryan, it may make more sense just to let things ride. Plus, while you aren't getting the championship match at MITB, you are still getting a Money in the Bank match!

If Ambrose and Reigns stick together, I hope they call up Corey Graves as their new third man. Graves is anti-Authority personified.

Mexicools .....
Juventude  (Yeahhh probably spelled wrong...) Or Juvi ...
Psychosis and Super Crazy ... If I remember right.

Have to say overall with WWE .. Specially since Diva's reality show. They seem more concerned trying to pair everyone off. So they can begin making the future generation. Than trying to produce storylines that don't bite. From what everyone seems to be posting.

Between the assenine mania loss by taker.. to current events. 

BTW any more with Sting ... making the scene there? Someone said, it was only to work into 1 wrestlemania deal next year??

TNA still doing a lot of catch up older ppv events ...
BTW add this for trivia ..
Which TNA wrestler .. broke Samoa Joe's unbeaten streak for the first time? Who gave Joe his first defeat??

Storm

IIRC, that would have been Kurt Angle.

I don't think they're gonna get a chance to rehab the Shield.  It'd be too weird bringing someone in and trying to recreate it, and NXT doesn't have ANYONE on Seth/Tyler's level.  The closest wrestler they have to that kind of gravitas is Corey Graves, and he's a sucky douchebag.

I DO hope they bring in Sami Zayn, soon.  There'll be some sweeeeeet matches then.

A Zayn/Cesaro feud leading to a double turn and then Steen being brought in as a new Heyman guy and destroying a newly face Cesaro would be the best thing ever.

I just want Zayn/Dolph one time.

That's my favorite slashfic, certainly.

I take back everything. Put Solomon Crowe in the Shield. For those not familiar, look up Sami Callihan. You won't be disappointed.

Fun fact: Crowe and Ambrose were stable mates in CZW. Food for thought.

The SWITCHBLADE CONSPIRACY, MOTHAFUCKA.

OK  small company .. Yet has some good things ..

Happened to see one of the SHINE ladies events ... on dvd.

One thing that is fun with this. You can see ladies that have been known major companies. You also get to see ladies, from many different independants showing up.
Some you can tell just getting started...  Some of the matches, the more experienced ladies. Carrying a lot of it, before the finish.

Some ladies you can see though. Really know their stuff, moves to ring presence.

Yet you never know, this may be your first look. At some ladies, that will make it bigger some day.

TRIVIA ..
OK here may be a harder challenge for you..
What short lived, championship tag team ... Had moves called 420  and the Chalupa roll?
Also what made up those moves??

Storm

OK this is kind of creeping me out ...  You know how WWE has these spots they do. Showing how they get messed up, don't try this at home.
A lot of times for coming PPV event they will shoot something like that.

I happened to watch a few past events.. talk about freaky.
One is going on about how they may seem super in the ring. Yet they get hurt, they will get old. Some day, they will die.
Each change shows a different wrestler. When it gets to some day we will die. It is showing Eddie Guerrero, sitting by the lockers, think it is.
NOT sure which PPV it was. 

THEN Armageddon 2004 dvd ... They again are showing highlights.. They show Eddie, I think when he won his first championship, as Wrestlemania. Holding the belt , while up in the corner.
Talking about how we rise to new heights or glory. Finishing, and then we will be gone .... Think empty screen shot then. 

Almost like someone was seeing into the very near future. Both segments almost predicting Eddie's early death.
The one I thought was kind of bad tastes to start with. Then seeing second one, different one. Also when it got to showing someone. When talking about possible death or loss. Shows Eddie again.

Anyone else pick up on this??

Storm

I didn't catch the psychic prediction's of Eddie's death.

I DID catch today's list of Future Endeavors:

Jinder Mahal
Drew McIntyre
Teddy Long
Brodus Clay
Curt Hawkins
Aksana
Yoshi Tatsu
Evan Bourne
JTG

Of those, I'm surprised that they dismantled the 3 Man Band - even counting Hornswoggle with Heath, they're gonna need to pick up someone new just to keep the name. Maybe Zack Ryder.  Drew was a huge waste of talent - I LOVED his early run as the Chosen One, and I fucking LOVED his Future Shock DDT.  His career got torpedoed because he wouldn't hit his crazy girlfriend back when she jumped him.  That's what being a gentleman gets you.  Pinned by a midget dressed as a bull and then fired.

Brodus is disappointing - I was liking his heel character starting to develop in NXT.  The rest aren't surprising at all.  I didn't know Evan was still employed and I think JTG only avoided being fired by hiding in boxes constantly.  Maybe that box John slammed Bray into was JTG's hiding spot. 

Quote from: AliceHN on June 12, 2014, 11:11:11 PM
I too was disappointed in Clay, Mahal, and all the other guys that had so much talent! But apparently, it's "best for business" for the WWE to have Joke characters....

Does it have to be PG even? Kids will learn profanity so why delay the inevitable?

They're staying PG because right now with the Network hemorrhaging money until he has a stable subscriber base, Vince needs every single fucking dollar he can get from sponsors, and you get more sponsors with a PG product.  It's just a fact of commercial life.  Unfortunate, but true - still, they CAN create stellar wrestling shows in a PG era.  It's just harder.

Brodus Clay: his career went to shit soon as he became a dancing hippo, which is what he looked like.  This guy could have been a great monster heel the way they were first advertising him in WWE before they stopped the advertising and later brought him in as a dancing hippo.  What about Prince Albert?  I haven't seen him in a while either since pretty much Brodus and him broke up.

Curt Hawkins:  I didn't know he was still around

Aksana:  Kind of a useless wrestler now.  She would have made more sense to introduce Rusev than Lana, who's real name is CJ Perry from Florida with a phoney Russian accent.  I understand she lived there when she was really young briefly because her parents were missionaries or something.  I don't know how many times she has broken character and nearly burst out in laughter when fans chant USA after she talks about how great Putin is.  Aksana at least I could believe as a real Russian, even though she is from Lithuania or one of the former Soviet states.

Yoshi Tatsu:  Good riddance

Evan Bourne:  He was still around?  I haven't seen him since 2010

I'm really sad over 3MB breaking up. They'd really caught my attention with the backstage antics they did on the WWE App. Like this:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VGbXraf3yXA

It'll be weird not having Teddy around. I've watched him since he was a ref in WCW.

I think Curt will be happier. Oh and Stormy, Curt was part of La Familia with Zach and Edge and Vicky. I think maybe Chavo Jr too.

Okay, I was thinking of KroniK or Cheech and Cloudy or the Stoner Brothers from Hoodslam, but the last two seemed a little too indy ... then I happened to watch an old Smackdown PPV from 2004 on the WWE Network. :P

RVD and Rey-Rey!  They took on the amazing team of Rene Dupree and Kenzo Suzuki (remember him?) during WWE's Anyone Can Be a Tag Team era.

The 420 was their double leg drop ... and the Chalupa Roll was ... RVD doing Rolling Thunder and Rey doing yet another legdrop, I think?  His springboard one that sometimes gets called Dropping the Dime?

PURPLE VIXEN ROCKS !!  YEP correct ..

Rey springboard over top rope from outside. While RVD came opposite side with rolling thunder!!

EVAN "AIR" Bourne

OK anyone know ....  Is he related to Maniac Matt bourne who was also Doink the clown??

Storm

No. Bourne/Borne is not his real name. His only family in wrestling is his younger brother, who wrestles as "Mike Sydal".

True, but I like Matt better when he's in the ring getting high.  The X division could get so much better just having him there.

Best unused tag team name (to my knowledge):

The Personal Demons. They would have to specialize on turning on managers (who used to claim ownership of them )

Albert/Tensai does commentary on NXT under his real name now. He's actually pretty good at it.

Bourne was initially suspended for synthetic marijuana, but he's been out for forever with a massive leg injury. He only recently recovered enough to get back in the ring.

Here's trivia. What do the following three theme songs have in common?

CM Punk: This Fire Burns (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1HW_wRwmL2M)
Kurt Angle: Medal (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_FkcEGBtUe0)
The Funkadactyls: Somebody Call My Momma (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6Eosx3FOszo)

Also, Albertensai's real name is Matt Bloom. He does commentary under the name Jason Albert cuz WWE.

The Funkadactyls: Somebody Call My Momma (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6Eosx3FOszo)

Taking a stab at it, weren't they originally made for other people?

I can't see any similarities in the music.

This Fire Burns is by a band called Killswitch Engage and I don't think it was written for any wrestler and I assume CM Punk had to get special licensing rights to use it just like he is for Living Color's Cult of Personality he used more recently.  Cult of Personality is a song that is 25 years old, I remember that from grade school, uggh just gave away my age.  :D

That's a side trivia question though - what do Cult of Personality and This Fire Burns have in common besides both being hard rock/metal?

From what I remember CM Punk was using This Fire Burns before Killswitch Engage officially released their album "As Daylight Dies".  I went to wiki Killswitch Engage and found this so Red might be right:

"On May 23, 2006, the song "This Fire Burns" was released on the WWE Wreckless Intent album.[18] The track was intended to be the new theme song for WWE wrestler Randy Orton; however, it was scrapped and later became the theme song for the WWE Judgment Day 2006 pay-per-view. "This Fire Burns" is formerly used as the entrance theme for WWE wrestler CM Punk (along with his stables the Straight Edge Society and The New Nexus) from 2006 until 2011 and was later re-released as "This Fire" on the As Daylight Dies Special Edition.[19]"

Red's right. Angle's music originally belonged to The Patriot, Somebody Call My Momma has been used by several performers, the first was Ernest "the Cat" Miller, and This Fire Burns was originally going to be Orton's, but Orton didn't like it, so they gave it to Punk instead.

you just gave me another reason to hate Orton

I'm almost 90% sure that Mark Henry used "Medal" in 1996 before the Patriot debuted, and then it got recycled onto the Patriot and Kurt Angle.  He came in with that crazy All American Fat Albert outfit and they were really pushing his power-lifting career.

Actually, his match against Jerry Lawler at In Your House was one of the best-worked matches I saw Henry do until his revolutionary later heel turn and excellent run with the belt as the Silverback.

NutMeg .... Like your idea for a tag team ....  Add to turning on their managers.. They could have the trait. Of maybe knowing, and exploiting. The other teams weakness or personal tag demons, against them for wins.
Maybe in-rivalry between other team. Used as a divide and conquer tactic.

TAG teams in mind ... Successful as Bo and Blake the Beverly brothers.
Before they became this prissy acting duo ....   They had a more rugged look and sounding team name. Who where they before becoming the beverly brothers??
Hint it was a different wrestling company ...

Happened to have a name pop into the mind, while setting something else up .... See how many remember this... Think he was wcw ... Maybe Colonel Parkers stable..
Bunkhouse Buck ... 

Anyone remember colonel parker... and some of the wrestlers he had been manager for??

Storm

Who doesn't remember the Colonel and the Stud Stable? :P

Bunkhouse Buck, Meng, Dick Slater, Terry Funk and Arn F'n Anderson.

The stable most likely to legitimately kick the shit out of you.

Before that he managed the Masters of the Powerbomb, I remember, and before THAT he was in one of Cactus Jack's previous federations and managed him, if I remember my Foley biographies correctly.

I think after the weird angle with Sherri and Harlem Heat he just managed the Amazing French Canadians (poor Quebecers) and then had a cup of coffee as Jeff Jarrett's manager in the WWF before he disappeared back to the South.

Have to admit the whole Sister Sherri, colonel parker team for Harlem Heat. Seemed like we need to use these characters, but where?
A very weird grouping there..
MASTERS of the power bomb .....  Was that Vader and Vicious?? Think they would fit that time era.

Think one of the more impressive feats of strength seen.. Was back in the day.. British Bulldog had Vader up in a standing suplex. Just seemed to hold the big man up forever. Before finally taking him over.

That and the bringing Big show backwards off corner turnbuckle, collapsing the ring, more modern. Think that was Lesner or Cena.

OK ....  try this on for size ....  Who was known as the man with the hands of stone??

Storm

That'd be Rugged Ronnie Garvin.

Callista rocking that one nicely!!  Had the Garvin stomp, to punish opponents. Basically putting the boot, to each limb, as his opponent, laid on the mat.

NEW fave moment just got to see. Going through old TNA PPV ... OMG this was awesome.. Lethal Lockdown match 2007  Rhino gored Tyson Tomko .. Backwards.. OUT through the closed cage door, past the steps, and onto the arena floor. No idea if chain locked, but it WAS wrapped around, and went flying.
Had to replay that, watch that again right away....... Talk about IMPACT wrestling. Aj styles using overhead rigging, to crash james storm, through table set on top of cage nice holy shit moment.. Yet think Rhino had best impact.

Storm 

"Tomko, gimmie a beat."
"No."

Impressed with this lady wrestler .. independant companies .. MSChif ...  Happened to catch a few things here and there.
May not be working for any of the big 2 WWE or TNA .

Yet the lady looks damn good, and has some impressive skills. Ok admit uses the screaming more than needed. Yet sitting back, actually seeing her in a few matches. The lady knows her moves.... mat wrestling, pro, to submissions.

Anyone have any feed on this lady?? Current company affiliation? Still active?
She has been on circuit worldwide.

Not bad to look at either.. even with the partially colored green hair.

Storm

You got a problem with colored hair, motherfucker?  ^_-

MsChif is an indy queen.  Since she's married to Unbreakable Michael Elgin she shows up in ROH of a fair amount, particularly to neutralize Maria Kinellis.  She does work for SHIMMER and SHINE, the two dominant ladies' promotions that are active in the states right now, and she does matches for PWG and independent feds all over.

She IS very good.  Even if she doesn't use poison mist half as well as I can.

Vixen .. GAspppppp ... you mean your coloring not natural??  It does look so good on you ..... Figured just another thing. Showing your unique awesomeness. 
For the record.. myself.. I have NO problem with how the lady looks ...  Figured some may ..

Happened to see her in a match, one of the shine events/ home video ... Plus just saw her on one of the chickfight videos ... from event in the UK.
WHICH also had Britany Knight ... part of the Norfolk dolls... NOW Paige ... WWE variety. She was only 15 ... I think at the time of that match.
Mschif looked GREAT both matches.. GOD that woman is flexible.. as well as very skilled...  Mat, pro, as well as many submission moves.
She finally lost to eventual tourny winner Cheerleader Melissa.

Think she had close to a 2 year reign as Shimmer champ.. When I can. Plan to look into some of those events, to catch more of her in action.

Everyone was just staggering around clutching at their throats and turning purple.

OK 2 more indie ladies to check with you ...

Santana ..... and Serena Deeb ......
Again both ladies look to have some definate in ring skills, and presence.

BTW anyone know if Trinity is still wrestling??

Storm

Santana, aka TNA's Brittany, is ok, though nothing special in my book. Serena Deeb, (who had a stint in WWE as the Straight Edge Society's Serena,) is one of the best wrestlers in the world, possibly my favourite American female wrestler now that Sara Del Rey seems to have retired from in-ring performing.

Trinity hasn't wrestled since 2008, so seems well and truly retired.

I like Brittany's finish, and she pulls a decent shooting star press, as well.  She doesn't get lost in the ring and she communicates body language fairly well.  But she's not as sharp, clever, or impactful as Serena. 

Santana works best in a tag team with Amber O'Neal. I've seen some of those matches and she's really good in them.

I miss Serena and the SES.

Happened to see Serena on Tna one night only knockouts ... Had her mixing it up, and matching Mickie James think it was. Basically you could tell. The lady knew her stuff ...  No one had to carry her, she showed very fluid movements, and the continuity of the match, seemed to flow very well.
Other matches, you could kind of see .. the ladies having trouble, working together.

Santana seen there as well, also shine .. The lady has some speed, and quickness... Think with the right polish and direction. She could be very impressive.

Trinity ... Think the lady was a natural ... knew how to play to the crowd, and knew how to move, and get it done in the ring. I think if she could have been active more. When Knockouts finally got underway. Instead of just the eye candy or ringside companion. I think she would have made a lot better showing, than she was allowed.

Funny you mention that since the Colonel and his tag team Harlem Heat came to mind as I wrote my reply. Namely in the terms of "really stupid things done by a promotion" See the good colonel was not originally to be the manager of Kole and Kane .

He OWNED them. Now I have heard the idea was he won them in a card game (they were prisoners ) but still..white guy brings two black men in chains to the ring? The fact it took HOUSE SHOWS for WCW to grasp that this might be a bad idea is stunning. Granted this was a fed that named Jeep Swenson "The Final Solution" until Jewish groups protested.

I'd watch competitive basket-weaving if J.R. was calling it.

I'd even watch Golf with JR calling it. "FOR THE LOVE OF GOD! LEAVE THE DAMN BALL ALONE YOU SON OF A BITCH!"

I'd love to see JR calling the World Cup right now.....

Damn that would be good...and Jerry "The King" Lawler by his side giving running commentary..

JR and the lovechild of Jesse Ventura and Bobby Heenan couldn't have have made the Dutch/Argies game bearable. That was dreadful.

I always suspected that about Luigi.  It's good that J.R. agrees.

Anything with JR can make it great.

And Calista, I agree.

JOHN Morrison ALSO starring in a wwe release as Hercules as well.

Whereas I hate you all.

Great wrestling factions of history begin and end with the Dungeon of Doom.

<_<

No, but seriously.  The Varsity Club with Captain Rotundo and Coach Sullivan and friggin' Dr. Death, the old deGeneration X, the Hart Foundation with Pillman and the Bulldog and Owen, the UNION (I loved their steam whistle music), the J.O.B. Squad, the Dangerous Alliance (Heyman was ALWAYS a genius), the best comedy act in wrestling for my money with the Full Blooded Italians in ECW ...

.. and motherfuckin' BULLET CLUB!

*throws up the Bullet Horns*

Horsemen. Ole, Arn, Tully, Ric and JJ.  Or the group with Barry instead of Ole that got enshrined in the WWE HOF.

Just watch some of those classic promos. Better than much of today's talent.

Please don't make me name every inception of the Horsemen. Some of them are awful.

*sigh* Ok I'll try. Note, this is from memory so I may have iterations out of order.

It starts with Ole, Arn, Tully, Ric and JJ. Then Luger for Ole. Then Barry for Luger.

Then it gets all weird.  At one point Butch Reed and Kendall Windham were members.  Sting some say was, but I discount that as a trick to fool him.  Then Pretty Paul Roma.  Then in the Nitro era: Arn, Mongo, Benoit, Malenko and Ric.  Then when Arn got hurt, he offered his spot to Hennig.  Which would have been awesome, but WCW screwed that up and had Hennig go with the NWO. 

You forgot Pillman.

Anyone remember the Heenan family??   ;)

Yet Natalya is one impressive lady ... they scripted to look like a mid carder for this. Just a few quick moves, then submitted and done.

Know as competative as she is.. This had to be infuriating for her ...  Not even five minutes in the ring... and over. Give me a break.

If she did not have such strong ties to things there. Think she would make one hell of a Knockout.

She lived through the "minute match" era, so it's not like she hasn't had to put up with worse. Meanwhile, I can't remember the last time there were THREE separate angles on the WWE main roster at the same time centered on female wrestlers.

UNDERTAKER VS UNDERTAKER .. Used to know this one ...

The Underfaker was none other than "Prime Time" Brian Lee, who was champion of Cornette's Smoky Mountain promotion. He also had runs under that name in ECW and TNA, as well as another WWF run as "Chainz", one of the DOA.

QuoteSTING VS NWO STING ........  Who played the evil clone of Sting?

nWo Sting was Jeff Farmer. Farmer went through a lot of gimmicks, including Cobra in WCW, and Super J in New Japan.

QuoteNEW DIESEL ... TOTAL  dumbass idea when Nash left.
NEW RAZOR RAMON .. Same era, same mistake!!

Fake Razor was Rick Bognar, a Canadian wrestler who never did much in the US outside of his brief WWF stint. He had more success in Japan, wrestling with FMW, WAR, and New Japan.

Fake Diesel was Glenn Jacobs, a big guy who had a myriad of gimmicks, none more famous than the current one he's had for 17 years: Kane.

I thought that was one of YOUR gimmicks.

I kinda liked it when Punky was in her "Prototype" period.

Her hair's much better, now.

Ok .... should we start the rumor here??  I think Lesner has made Vince his prison bitch.

I mean please.. WHY try and use Brock as front man for the company??  Killing takers streak at wrestlemania ...  Now giving him the belt.
SUCK it WWE ... Sorry Lesner is and always has been BORING and not much substance..
Yeahhh he is big, and strong...  Whoop de dooo ...

He has shown he has NO loyalties to the company or wrestling in general ...  WHY waste everyone's time again??

Then the Bella twins .... SAD to see .. AGAIN something done WAY to much ... in the past ...  Owen and Bret ..  Undertaker and Kane ... Matt and Jeff Hardy ...
Saw the signing between Steph and Bria .. and guessed what was going to happen right then, and YEP family betrayal .. YAWNnnnnn

SOoooooooooooo glad I did not pay money.... to sit through this PPV ...  Hmmmmmmm can the fans go on strike, like Baseball did??

Anyways ...  HAD to say something ..

Storm   

I love what they're doing with Brock right now.  They're doing the best possible thing to build off Brock killing the Streak, and that's making him fucking unstoppable.

What he did to Cena was hard to watch (because Brock was slathered in greasy beast sweat, mostly, but also-) because after ten years of watching John earn the title SuperCena he just got fucking rag dolled around the ring and beaten like a dog.  They used a main-event slot at one of the Big Four PPVs to build Brock into a monster, and it worked beautifully.

Now everyone who comes at him is an underdog, no matter who they are, and he can destroy villains and heroes with equal ease.  I'd LOVE to watch him take on Bray Wyatt and see Bray test his faith.  Or take on Sheamus and get Sheamus to engage the brutality he came in with, when HE was the destroyer and career-ender instead of the Daffy Irishman.  Or put Brock against Dean Ambrose like Goliath facing a sociopathic David.

I'm really hoping Night of Champions is either Cena giving in to the dark side or getting ragdolled again. After SummerSlam, I can't see Super Cena in Brock's league any more. Well unless Super Cena somehow goes Super Saiyan Cena.

Sorry vixen I agree with Kell here.. They ALREADY did this with Lesner years ago, his first stint. Beating up on one legged Zack Gowan .. Being the rage beast that just likes hurting people ... no matter who it is.. Like they are simply trying to put things back. To how they were before he left to become a pro football player .... Whooops that did not work.
Very athletic yet he is still a one trick pony.. Not someone you can keep the company running on ....  does not do very well the speaking segments either ... BORING .......  Give it a few more months, maybe he will go to start his career in extreme water polo. Saving the wrestling world his bullshit.
They either need to reinvent him or dump him ... like he dumped wrestling in general.
Same thing... different cast of characters.
Purple vixen YOU have some good ideas ... maybe if you got to write some scripts it could work. Until that happens, this will just spiral down into mediocrity ... losing fans. Who simply have had enough of a bad thing.

I had an idea WAYyyyyyyyyyyyy better than what they came up with for Takers streak ...  Yet could not get anyone to listen. Because I was not family, part of the company. Something that would have actually incoporated his characters roots and history.
Think they need to get some fresh thinkers in there.

Happened to see something in passing .. Neck injury to Danial Bryan ??  Anyone know more on that??

From match, something outside the ring?

Was cruising youtube this week and found some old Stampede videos:

First under the Promo talent isn't hereditary category:
Barry O for most is known as a jobber or Randy Orton's uncle. And I found Randy to be as good at a promo as the Shockmaster was at coming through a wall. Bob Jr did all right but he was paired with Piper. But Barry, well in Stampede he was the Zodiak (based loosely on a gimmick his dad did) and he managed Jason the Terrible. And the two did recorded promos which apparently are quite legendary. And here is a sample.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_1mCmwgzudc

The lead heels of Stampede were Karachi Vice, yep based on Miami Vice, they even did up T-Shirts. The main players were the Great Gama Singh (whose presence in the light heavyweight ranks was so huge a video featuring Owen Hart, Benoit, Bret was almost a Great Gama tribute based on how many times he appeared ), Makan Singh AKA Mike Shaw who for some reason never was allowed to speak much in his WCW/WWF days despite being just fine on the mic, Gary Albright, Johnny Smith, Jerry Morrow (the guy with the thick Caribbean accent ), The Cuban Assassin (the fellow who looks like Castro's if he let his hair grow out). Here is a nice tribute vid to them.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WQQ1ywQ5kn8

Finally the Dynamite Kid reveals the truth about Davey Boy Smith's parentage. And yes he was managed by an English man in a cowboy hat with a Hitler mustache..why do you ask ? John "JR" Foley was actually the lead heel manager there for years. Dynamite still invoked his name in interviews in the area after John was dead.

You're so old-school that they tore the school down, Stormy.

My favorite finishers are the variations of the cutter (I blame DDP and Bubba Ray for how much I love it), the package piledriver and the BRRRRRRAIIIIIIIIIINBUSTAAAAAAAAHHHHHHH~!

DBD's neck injury was something along the lines of recurring and nagging things that just accumulated over time due to his style. It got so bad he lost strength in one arm. He may need another surgery to help him get strength back in that arm.  I'm hoping he can come back and be 30 in the Rumble.

Those Stampede videos look amazing. I would love to see a Dynamite vs Davey Boy match. Is there one around?

Finishers?  Nothing beats a Diamond Cutter out of nowhere from an odd position.

Red, seems finding a Davey Boy vs Dynamite Kid match is bloody hard. I found one from Japan in 2 parts. Part 2 replays the last two minutes of part 1.

I also found a few other early looks at Jim Neidhart (clean shaven no less) One thing i have noticed in these older vids, the crowds are LOUD !

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6LsygVnSXYc&list=UUxiu4to8t577xr8IZqP58nw&index=196

Another Stampede Alumni, Honky Tonk Man doing what he does best, talk:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Sw88v9-0YOQ

How about Dynamite vs Bret when neither were anywhere near 200 lbs?

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CQMl7SvqyLw

Not to be outdone, the equally smaller Davey Boy, with Bad News Allen (Brown), David Schultz and the Great Gama (who did work for Vince on Middle East and African tours. He had an offer to join the WWF in the early Vince days but wanted to raise his family instead ). And be warned the post match interviews are a bit un-PC. Although one could say that is evned out with the surealness of Man with Hitler mustache allied with a black, an East Indian and an Asian.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dL4qjZIcDfc

For this interested in reading about Stampede Wrestling I recommend Heath Mccoy's 'Pain and Passion' It also comes from a publisher that has done quite a few wrestling books in Canada and has one of the best names ever quite by accident. The name now is Entertainment Culture Writing. They began as Essays on Canadian Writing. But they have always gone by ECW Press :) I have had many a wrestling fan react with wide eyes seeing ECW on the side of my wrestling books :)

On the subject of Davey Boy, here's a very young Davey (literally called "Young David") up against another Dave, (also known as "Fit") from the famous British programme, World of Sport.

Also, Ole chants on Raw as NXT invades. I want Heyman as my advocate. Also check out the gifs on Wrestling with Text. (Can't link on this phone so google. Good stuff there.)

I dunno how a Raw with Bray Wyatt going over Jericho in a cage, Tyler Black going over Sheamus because of interference from Claudio Castagnoli, and El Generico and PAC in a tag match can leave such a bad taste in my mouth, but I think I blame the Bellas.

Although Adam Rose's bunny throwing a superkick made up for a lot of it.

Well Rellik (ohh its Killer backwards...) is better known as Johnny the Bull Stromboli from the Marmalukes in WCW. If you can call that better known.

Now Trytan (and yes that is apparently how it was spelled) when I looked for him I got the true gem: He got an RD Reynolds Wrestlecrap writeup. http://www.wrestlecrap.com/inductions/trytan-tnas-warrior-terminator-somethingorother/

"So as best I can tell, Trytan was an amalgamation of the Little Mermaid's father, a bondage cyborg, and the Ultimate Warrior." Jesus how could he fail? So apparently before that he was part of Redshirt security in TNA (Ah the days of Don Callis.. ) back in the days of feuding TNA security guard teams.

After the Trytan push died he tagged with Simon Diamond until his contract expired. He went to Ohio Valley Wrestling as Jacob Duncan a woodsman meets Mankind gimmick. He feuded with the Boogyman, got involved with a love triangle over Beth Phoenix, an held the OVW heavyweight title for a couple months along the way. He got let go in 2007 and pretty much vanished.

I'm glad KENTA finally made his NXT debut, even with the name Hideo Itomi (at least it's a name with wrestling cred, and they're not claiming he's related to Funaki or Tajiri).

I'm glad they put him over strong, clearing off the Ascension in his PPV interview and beating a known name nice and swiftly in his debut.

But what the hell is with that finisher?

KENTA invented the Go 2 Sleep.  If they want to piss Punk off, let him use THAT.  KENTA can kick harder than anyone on the roster, and his whole move set is kicks.  Give him a bad-ass kick finisher.  Hell, steal the Bena-Driller from Ricochet.

But the flying double stomp?  The friggin' Warrior's Way? It's hard to hit, it always looks awkward, and it's STUPID.

BLARGH.

Warriors Way??  Is this the person that was Senshi in TNA??  BTW think recently saw something about Tajiri showing up TNA recently as well.
WWE seems to be mildly imploding lately .. Between unpleasing scripting .. to injuries, to main stars wanting time away .. (OR are they just making movies??)
They need to do some re-evaluating and shaking things up ...

FOR purple vixen ..  How about the G 2 sleep re named the F U punk??  He he he ..

Storm

If the WWE thinks there haven't been enough CM Punk chants on their show, then they should definitely have Kenta use the GTS.

MEG thanks ..  Yeahh he was a VERY big guy .. They tried to spin him as maybe having some kind of powers or something. He would be going at it with someone in the ring.. Think Monty Brown ...
Then if things started going against him .. The house lights would go down.
Only to come back up .. with him gone from the ring, maybe on the entrance ramp.

Like I said, and you thought. Seemed they had some definate plans for the character. Then just POooooooffffff faded away into nothing.

It's from Finn McCool who's a badass Irish legend. But who has been kinda Paul Bunyoned over the years.

Sure, and Bálor is a Celt-Irish god of death, but two cool elements still come together to make kind of a weird name.  If they were gonna make him some sort of super-Irelander, they might as well have related him to Finlay or Sheamus.

Not sure if anyone can find this to post. Like some did other matches ..

Have to say one of the most enjoyable matches have seen in awhile ...  Going through some older PPVS. You may not like how they end it.
Yet 2009 Tna Genesis .... Match between Chris Sabin and Alex Shelly ...  starts out slow. Yet you begin to see, it is like a clinic in technical wrestling.
Then as things heat up, the exchanges between them are very good. You can see even though partnered, at points. They did not hold back at all.

Is it wrong that I saw the reference to D&D and knew that in at least one version a warrior isn't a player class whereas a fighter is?

But yeah, the Fighting Irishman trope is getting old in the E. Some of these ideas may have had more legs when the same wrestler wasn't seen nationally but now it is getting where a foreign wrestler's best bet would be to lose the accent lest they be doomed to play a drunken brawler (Irish), a cold brute (Russian), an effeminate fop (French) or a Mafioso (Italian) for their whole career. 

Silly other Meg - you're forgetting that Irishmen can also be leprechauns, Russians can be blue collar shlubs in comically bad suits (Nikolai Volkoff: Best Face Turn Ever), Frenchmen can be pirates (long live Captain Lafitte!) and Italians can own snake puppets.

Just one version of AD&D 2nd ed. offered the Warrior as a low-powered NPC alternative to a fighter for caravan guards and henchmen and such. But the terms have been used interchangeably since forever, back to when fighters were Fighting Men.

Warriors are also a NPC class in third edition/ Pathfinder and thus is very much part of current D&D jargon and its profound difference from a fighter.  And given the guys who i know who play Pathfinder they would likely have no problem letting some poor schmuck play a Warrior who asked for it (especially if female so they don't have "fake gamer girls" tainting their game system..ahem ) If I feel like trolling those boys I tend to start using wizard, sorcerer, shaman, witch and warlock interchangeably ;)

Is it wrong that I saw the reference to D&D and knew that in at least one version a warrior isn't a player class whereas a fighter is?

Just one version of AD&D 2nd ed. offered the Warrior as a low-powered NPC alternative to a fighter for caravan guards and henchmen and such. But the terms have been used interchangeably since forever, back to when fighters were Fighting Men.

Warriors are also a NPC class in third edition/ Pathfinder and thus is very much part of current D&D jargon and its profound difference from a fighter.  And given the guys who i know who play Pathfinder they would likely have no problem letting some poor schmuck play a Warrior who asked for it (especially if female so they don't have "fake gamer girls" tainting their game system..ahem ) If I feel like trolling those boys I tend to start using wizard, sorcerer, shaman, witch and warlock interchangeably ;)

Really want to piss off a D&D fanboy, say Cavalier and Chevalier interchangably.

Or piss off the French by pronouncing them "calve-uh-leer" and "chev-uh-leer"

Ah, there's your problem.

Pathfinder suuuuuuuuuuuuuuuucks.

D&D stopped producing real material after the last 2nd edition gazetteer.

... except the 3rd ed. Eberron campaign setting. I actually liked that one, if only because I could make an artistic golem who wanted to learn the meaning of love by being a bard.

Not sure about Orton .. YET know I LOVE seeing SADIE !!!

So anyone have thoughts on TNA network move??  Start of new year, new station. ALSO word being spread.. THIS one, has plans to help promote them.. Not just give them a time slot, and say there they are.

Seems like a LOT of injuries and pissed wrestlers both companies .. HMmmmmmmmmmmm  Any way we can start the PVRW?
PURPLE VIXEN REVOLUTION WRESTLING ... Give Vixen the creative reigns and let her have at it!!  Wooo Hoooo!!

Any updates brand switches, changes or possible up and comers??

rumors of Sting at Survivor Series. And a fun Onion style article http://www.kayfabenews.com/sting-confirmed-survivor-series-says-guy-internet/

And I actually get Destination America, so I'm going to see what TNA does.

The first Kevin Steen promo hit on NXT!  Although we haven't seen what ridiculous name they're gonna give him.

My money's on "Pierre Poutine".

Pretty sure I read somewhere "Kevin Owens" (I think his son is named Owen)

OK know we have several TRIVIA and wrestling knowledge guru's and vixens here ...

First happened to catch one of Brutus Magnus early appearances older TNA event.. He actually came out, costumed face mask, and like gladiator.
They mentioned he was one of the Gladiators of the U.K.    Anyone have any scoop on that?? Was it some kind of wrestling faction in England? If so who else was part of it?

NEXT on your trivia trek ..

(Old school)  Who was the CAN/AM connection ??

Next ... Not just wrestling in Denver .. The team was known as Chronic ... Who were they. Also what other colorful characters/ Ids did they also  have?

Storm

Gladiators of the UK was a recent updated version of the American Gladiators show.

I'll wait to see if others can get the trivia questions.

Here is my internet free guess on Chronic: I seem to recall they were known as Chronik or some other weird spelling. They were a tag team (I think WCW or TNA). The members I am thinking was the former Adam Bomb and..Brian Lee AKA Chainz of the gangland days of WWE? Pure best guesses and memory here..

KroniK was Bryan Clarke - who was indeed Adam Bomb as well as Wrath in that awesome Mortal Kombat storyline with Mortis, Glacier and The Cat - paired with Brian Adams, better known as Crush, who was for my money at his best when he was KONA CRUSH, BRUDDAH.  But he was also evil Demolition member Crush and white supremacist Crush and then I think he was just Brian Adams for a cup of coffee with the nWo before he and Clarke started breaking necks and cashing checks.

I loved those two because they were so amazingly terrible, never highlighted more than their absolute TRAINWRECK of a match against Kane and the Undertaker during that terrible abortion of an angle that was the Invasion.

Well at least it was a Brian, who was in the same group as Brian Lee at one time :) And the internet reveals why I couldn't recall if KroniK was in WWE or WCW..they did both. Come on Vince should have made him go back to being the American Ninja.

While I love the apron power bomb as SteenOwens' illegal post-match finisher, isn't it weird that he debuts and uses that immediately in a headline-making way right before they announced WWE has sign Uhaa Nation? 

You think they're gonna let Uhaa do the gorilla press-moonsault-shooting star combo, or will that blow too many minds?

Well Uhaa wasn't official till recently. I think NXT is about toturn into PWG east and I hope they push the main roster in a good eay.  Is itbad for me to want peoplelike Cesaro to be demoted to NXT to revive his career?

It's bad in the sense that WWE has been fucking up the main roster shows something awful these past few months.

Saddens my heart .. saw Velvet Sky got fired TNA .. Contract was up .... Anyone know anything else on her? Still think she was one of the sexiest and fun ladies out there.

Any predictions for Wrestlemania coming up??

BTW few weeks ago happened to see new show TNA new sponser ...  Like old school boxing ring look. WAYYY major mistake .. Basically the crowd was darkened out. That has always been one of their major selling points, was fan interaction.

Since losing the Spike deal, TNA has needed to cut back. Additionally, by all accounts, TNA is paying indy money right now. There's not a great deal of incentive for anyone to stay

They're darkening out the fact that they draw fewer people than NXT does at this point.

The upcoming shows from the UK should look better. TNA has a huge fanbase there.  Also, Samoa Joe is gone from TNA as well. So I hope things work out for them. TNA Knockouts are a much better product than WWE Divas.

I hope Joe takes another run in Ring of Honor.

But let's be serious here - Gail Kim, Kong and Havok are better than almost all the Divas they got, but I'd put AJ or Paige or anyone in NXT over the rest of the bunch in a heartbeat.

I think that Havok has to work on her character (and her outfit too)
It looks like they are having a heavyweight female division lately..I expect they will have soon April Hunter and Allysin Kay in the roster with Havok and Kay feuding again there too

Happened to see Havok in a Shimmer event??  One of the female independants. If she has polished up her ring presence/ and has the skills. Looked like she could be scary, wicked. Seeing her standing face to face with Kong. Looking like she has gotten bigger/ more weight as well.

Ring of Honor??  Happened to see add for PPV event coming up ... Is this put together by any known wrestlers past present? Who is behind this outfit?

Have seen them mentioned a few times... looks like an interesting card. Including a match up between Maria Kanelis and ODB?  Ummmm Odb would squash sexy Maria ..
Anyways .. This a national outfit or regional?

Also do they strictly do PPV events or more to it?

As you see ... trusting those of you like Purple Vixen .. HEY where has she been?? Need some sexy purple vibes here!!

NutMeg, and Callista also usually know what is going on as well.

I watched TNA the other day and it was a repeat because it still had Dixie Carter on it and the Dudleys hadn't powerbombed her through the table yet.  That would be awesome if ROH got a regular show on TV.


Ah found it Stormy...


looks like TNA is moving to Wednesdays at 9 and ROH comes on at 8pm, only an hour?

Considering the leaked memo revealing that TNA wasn't being renewed in September, this wrestling bloc looks to be a VERY limited-time offer.

June to September, I'd say.  And no one told TNA's staff or performers about the surprise neighbors moving in next door, so that seems to follow the narrative of Destination America looking to trade up from TNA to the rising stars in ROH with their strong ties with New Japan.

We'll see if their "interest" translates into cold hard cash, because between NJPW and ROH, AJ is making more than your average indy guy.

Hmmmmm maybe more of a method to the madness ...  What would happen, if talent. Was able to interact between the brands?
May be more going on behind the scenes, than has been leaked.
What if it helped gain attention/ viewers to both brands.
Then maybe an inter promotional rivalry ... To spark more interest.  Kind of like the old Monday night wars .. With the action, all on one night/ same channel?

ROH seems to have different set up, as to how talent can appear.
Have seen something, to the fact. Way contracts are done. Even if Samoa Joe goes mainstream WWE.
He would still be able to do some ROH events.
No idea, to the truth of that. Just saw it online.

Well, the tales out of school seem to say that Joe's NXT contract was a per-appearance sort of gig where he could indeed take indy bookings while still being part of the NXT storyline - BUT apparently his sales from his one T-shirt on the store were SO GOOD that Vince and H rushed to get him signed to a full-time deal which might be more like a standard contract.

Still, though, it's a friggin' awesome time to be a wrestling fan.

I'd love to catfight Paige. Roddy was one of the greatest heels of all time and will be missed. Piper had such a huge contribution to the business. It is just so sad that him and Dusty are no longer with us.

Have to agree with Brooke here..  Both Dusty and Rowdy did a lot, to help pro wrestling enter the spotlight. With their contributions inside the ring.
As well as behind the scenes. Not just WWE either. They did show up, other promotions as well.
Dusty, doing a lot, helping behind the scenes. That most of us, will never know.

Storm

Just wonder, if it is working for rematch at Wrestlemania next year?? 

Trying to think in the past .. Taker ruled Wrestlemania Yet past record at Summerslam hit or miss.
Think usually suffered from outside interference.

Just have to see how they work this one ...  Think end goal. Maybe Taker getting to even the score at another Wrestlemania. Then maybe retire.

Less than a week to find out.

Storm

Few recent releases to watch out for ..

First a holiday one... Santa's helper? Something like that ..
With WWE roster members ...  Oh and YES Paige is one of the elves.. She looks gorgeous on the cover.

The other  Ummmm does Mick Foley have a daughter involved with WWE?  A dvd out, features Christmas/ holiday themed matches.
Hosted by Foley and supposedly his daughter Noelle?
Not sure if actual daughter or made up, for this release.
Ummmm yeahhhhh should have some of the divas in sexy santa outfits.

Tully Blanchard was the other one of the original group

First off, No, no Paul Roma. He gets put in with Kendall Windham and Hacksaw Butch Reed and Steve McMichael as "We don't talk about those guys".  Chris Benoit we don't mention, but for other reasons.

The original Horsemen were Flair, Ole, Arn and Tully with JJ Dillon.

Lex Luger came later after Ole was cast out.

Then the Luger/Windham switch gave us possibly the best iteration (and the ine inducted into the WWE Hall of Fame) Flair, Arn, Tully and Barry Windham.

Fun Fact, Charlotte isn't the only child of a Horseman to be currently competing in wrestling.  The lovely Tessa Blanchard is currently working her way up he indie ranks.

I don't think Kendall or Reed were ever official Horsemen. Curt Henning WAS, (however briefly ) so you can Add Curtis Axel to that list.

I can't remember off hand, did Curt ever actually wrestle a match as a Horseman before he turned?

I was so damn angry at WCW for taking such a great speech by Arn and having it crapped on first by Nash and the nWo and then by having Curt turn.

Other short term Horsemen include: Jeff Jarrett, Brian Pillman, and Dean Malenko.

Pillman.  How things would've been so different had he not convinced Bischoff to give him an actual release.

He was amazing in his Flyin' Brian days.

Malenko, such an amazing technician. "That's not Ciclope!"

Pillman pre car wreck was fantastic. Malenko felt like a Horseman forever, it's too bad he only got to be a member in the final few months. I must say, going "inside the ropes" is the most fun I've had on this board in some time!

I feel like if WCW could've seen past Hogan and saw that the nWo needed credible opposition instead of bloating with members, the landscape of wrestling would be different today

They certainly had a depth of talent that The WWF couldn't come close to matching, especially from an in ring perspective. The ridiculous spending, coupled with the refusal to push any of the younger guys (except Goldberg) to the main event really didn't do them any favors. When your main events in 99/2000 are still being dominated by the likes of Hogan, Savage, Sid, Sting, Nash etc., despite the fact that the ratings are in the tank, it's got to be almost willful ignorance, no? I've heard people claim that they couldn't compete with the WWF's "attitude", because Turner wouldn't let them get as raunchy or violent. Apparently they never considered trying to focus on, y'know, WRESTLING. The one area they should have had a clear advantage in.

Sid was definately with the horsemen for a bit ... 
Happened to catch them live locally at the time ..
Drunk behind me, was bragging how he was going to trip Sid, when he walked by.
My thoughts .. Great Sid is going to fall on me. Think I did it, and attack me. Had serious thoughts about turning around, and slugging the drunk in self defense.

Then they came out .. Horsemen .. Security and entourage .. SID's head and shoulders showing above everyone else.
Needless to say, the drunk shut the f up and probably sobered up. When he saw just how big psycho Sid was in person ..

Sting was brief. Think the storyline was. They let him in, to suck him in.
Beating him down, shortly in sneak attack.

BTW thinking of these formations .. and timing .. Anyone else love the war games format?
I used to watching these. The side by side rings, inside the steel cage.
Wish I had a lot of those earlier Wcw pay per views on video. Lot of great match ups, and icons.
Was watching a TNA past PPV.
They mentioned the tag team group going by the Freebird rules .. So until they entered the ring. You did not know which of the 3 members you would be facing.

Just out of curiousity ..Was Luger ever part of the horsemen? Would have been the right time frame. Anyone know? 

Luger was a member in '87, according to Wikipedia. One of the rotating 4ths, after Ole left.

Yeahhhh the fourth member ..
Usually an enforcer brought in.
To help Flair keep the title or Arn and Tully tag belts. The famed outside interference!!  He he he
Then the extra man would get impatient. How they never got chance at a title.
Usually ending in removal and betrayal by the others.

Think Sting and Luger joined forces, after this happened to one of them for awhile.
Then of course Luger betrayal, as usual.

Back to Pillman .. Yeahhh as flying Brian he was amazing .. Kind of like an A J Styles or Alex Shelly for today.
Lot of high flying, plus you never knew what he was going to try next.
He was an innovater of that in his time.
BTW another possible flash back ... Didn't he team with Z man for a bit?
Trying to remember who he was allied with.
Think Pillman entered a war Games with already taped and injured shoulder once.

BTW Vanessa Thanks, for the info!!

If I am not mistaken Luger came in as a heel and was green so they put him with the Horsemen so they could help him out and cover up his deficiencies.  Eventually tho during the Bunkhouse Stampede days, Luger turned in the Horsemen because he didn't want to lose a Stampede match so JJ Dillon could win.

This set up Luger asking Windham to team with him and Barry turning on Lex and joining the Horsemen.

To get us back on topic, after seeing her God awful new look (to say nothing of her Godawful accent) on Raw this week, my urge to get Paige in the ring and make her suffer has never been higher.

It is a shame to see Paige languishing. Heck the NXT callups are all doing their best but not given the opportunity to shine like they did in NXT.

Happened to see quit mention.. Did not take time to look and read article.

Something about the Styles Clash finisher being banned in WWE? Is A J there now?

Storm

Looks like AJ vs Y2J for Wrestlemania.  And word is Vince learned Yoshi Tatsu had been injured mistaking a Styles Clash and has prohibited its use.

If Jericho can still go. That could be the match, that lights up the entire show.
Those two could put on a hell of a match.

Along with all of his other moves .. One that I will always think of, with AJ.

No idea which event it was. yet actually had him skin the cat so to speak. In a very unique way.
He was propelled towards the railing. Between the fans and the ring area.
He actually dropped down, sliding under it. Instead of hitting it.

SOoooooooooooooo  Hmmmmmm with the big event coming up.
Anyone, want to list the events/ matches.
Then see if our fans here. Can predict the winner of each one??

OK ....  Since it seems nobody is making much mention of this ..

R.I.P. Chyna!!

She may not have done everything right.
Still she rocked, and shook things up, for awhile.
Sorry to see she was such a tormented spirit .... Wish someone would have listened more. When she seemed to be reaching out for help.

Anyone have a fave Chyna moment??

Thought it was fun. Seeing her come out in Tna briefly. As the neutralizer for Karen Jarrett.
To bad she could not have had more of a run there.

I think that Havok has to work on her character (and her outfit too)
It looks like they are having a heavyweight female division lately..I expect they will have soon April Hunter and Allysin Kay in the roster with Havok and Kay feuding again there too

So like I predicted, Kay joined in TNA roster...what did I win?

Hmmmmm maybe you finally get to remove the thing, from your lovely face? Think you have had to wear it long enough.
Sounds good to me!!

VELVET SKY to NXT !!??

Is their ANY possibility of (Not using same name likely) A beautiful person gathering in Nxt/ WWE??

Think the ladies could ROCK the house, if they get the chance ..
Mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm dreams of sunny days, and Velvet Sky's ... Yummmmm!!

BTW I did get to meet Flair and the Horseman.
I was surprised, wish I had more funds. As nothing solid to back it up.
In the middle of a crisis or two.
Should not have gone at all, no money for it right now.

Still was kind of cool. Briefly got to meet, and shake hands with Barry, Tully, Arn, and Flair.
Even got to chat with Arn for a bit. Soon as they had fans with money, I graciously got out of the way.

They had a screen set up by them. Showing old clips ... Gordon Soley .. Sighhhhh DAMN I wish so much of that, was on dvd today.
Still, a very good memory.
Arn still looks like he could kick ass.

Storm

THIS is NOT COOL!!   >:(

Happened to see something online ... WWE ..
TERRIBLE idea ... NEW legion of doom??

Sorry, no way in hell, do these guys look worthy of the name.
They may be good sized guys. Yet they in no way, look as impressive as Animal and Hawk together.
Not the same and definately a horrible idea!!

These guys should not be even considered. Saw photo of them, next to Paul Ellering.
The true legion of doom, in their day. Would have mowed through these guys like a pair of jobbers, they look to be.

My vote NO!!
If they have to recreate the legion. They need to do it, with someone, that looks more impressive than these two.
