Yes much like other kids play soccer, football, or baseball from a young age Colby, who not only has a father in wrestling also has an Aunt and Uncle who are wrestlers, grew up in the business.

I actually listen to the show pretty regularly, and even shows with hosts I absolutely love and respect can upset me at times because my biggest pet peeve, in any media, is when someone is ignorant to a topic but openly talks about it with over confidence and fervor. Playing a brass, cocky, and meglomaniacal "character" publicly is commonly the trapping of a person with severe low self-esteem and insecurities. These guys can be fun at times but their long diatribes about how their personal opinions are fact and that I need to lick the sweat off the bottoms of their feet to be a fully formed and actualize human being becomes sad at times when you realize that it's coming from the same guys that feel the need lurk this board to target anyone that says anything even slightly negative about them. Can't wait to hear them "eviscerate" this post with the same mundane and juvenile put downs and baseless threats they are accustomed to use.

I can't stand how WWE centric their view of everything is especially framing the entire opinion of Garvin on 1 appearance in the Royal Rumble

Sure , I get that , but nepotism is why he is in the decade storyline in the first place. So they should have gotten some "deserving" guy to play the role of Steve Corino's son? There should not even be a story line for " Corino's " son . We can go around and around. I just don ' t think wrestlers children deserve special treatment. Corino should work smaller promotions for a few years. He should also build up his body he way too small and needs at least 20 pounds of muscle. I don't think his career should be fast tracked because he is Steve Corino 's son. Let him pay his dues. Give his spot to someone who is ready . That is just my opinion . I can understand where you're coming from but Colby has been training since 2001 and wrestling regularly since 2009 just because he's young doesn't mean he hasn't paid his dues. How long does he have to work smaller shows before he's allowed in the top prospect tourney? Lio Rush who no one is saying shouldn't be in only started in 2014

I don't know if the 2 count affirmative action gimmick isn't actually the greatest "social commentary" angle in wrestling history

I have to say Liger is most certainly still a studd in fact I would hazard a wager that if it had been Battle Liger trying to seduce Maria things would have gone a lot different

One that I always go back to is Rick Steamboat vs Bret Hart at Mania 2 while, the Hercules match was fine Ricky vs Bret at that time could have been a showstealer in the same vein as the Steamboat v Savage match from the next year.

As I read this I got super excited but are you seeing it the way I am with a face Bockwinkel having to run through the Heenan family to finally get 5 minutes in a cage with the Brian?

Yeah I was kind of shocked by that seems like Io doesn't need the title at this point but whatever the matches are still great

Hopefully the TPT field doesn't keep filling out the way it is now mean that for ever Lio Rush there's both a Punisher Martinez and Action Ortiz

Support and espouse wrestling that I enjoy in an attempt to help more people fine current wrestling they will cherish instead of being dejected from watching WWE or NJPW

Thanks so much Mick I noticed that as well especially while recording for the up coming episode

I was slightly shocked at how highly you rated that trios as I was slightly let down that 2 guys had what was clearly the match of the night for SOTF night 1 were stuck in a some what thrown together mid-card tag that didn't even get much time

This could go totally different ways based on parameters but, for my own amusement I’ll book it based on the idea that I have nearly unlimited funds and am not worried about making money or running more shows after. So based on what I’ve seen and this is coming from a PWG regular the best crowd going is the Progress crowd at the Electric Ball Room so I’m running in London In a mini tournament winning teams face off in the main event War Machine vs Strong BJ Sumerian Death Squad vs KES Trevor Lee vs Kenny Omega Dave Mastiff vs Speedball Mike Bailey Pentagon Jr vs Jimmy Havoc vs Akira Tozawa Kongo Kong vs #BigMike Elgin Will Osprey vs Timothy Thatcher Strong BJ vs Sumerian Death Squad

While I can agree with this concept, especially in the context of territorial wrestling, to me ROH at the level it is with national tv and trying to grow as a company really shouldn't have a place for a guy that seen as having no future potential even at a lower "enhancement" role a guy should have some upward mobility and there are plenty of guys that could fit the role perfectly that also could use that break rather than Evans, if they used guys at Evans from different areas in that role fine but the idea that he in under contract and actually travels with the company is the problem to me.

I completely agree I really thought with him coming in to PWG and starting to flirt with Evolve that this was going to be his break out year but luckily he seems happy with with his family and he isn't pushing himself and risking his life

Josh Alexander wrote an article as he was retiring that explains why some people get booked while other more talent people don't and it doesn't really have as much to do with being friends with Delirious as it does with the fact that future of honor shows are pay to play. Sidebar Dickenson while extreme talented is honestly more trouble than he's worth especially to a corporate company he could easily become a PR nightmare for SBG the same could be said about AR Fox and his past.

How different would history be if Ricky Steamboat was more committed to wrestling than his family

I'm trying to find out if there is any story behind what actually happend with Tama as someone I know is friends with his Son (Jacob Fatu he's actually pretty good himself for a young wrestler) if I get any info I will for sure post it here as soon as I get it.

I'm going to have to sign up for NWA especially for Gino & Lothario sounds like it's been a real revelation in regards to both of them for gwe rankings

Omega is in PWG this weekend

Statement of the fucking century, I love how many times you hear people say "they were booked into a corner" like it's an excuse. When someone has booked themself into a corner why is it then acceptable that their plan to get out of a bad situation that was created by bad booking to be MORE BAD BOOKING!

Omega really? I mean I would go insane for that and it would in some ways prove me right because as soon as he signed with NJPW full time I said he'll be back in ROH soon because of their working relationship, I'd still be powerfully shocked if they had him show up unannounced on a show I believe still isn't sold out but, it's ROH so I guess they are known for this type of thing

I'd be suprised if the Bella's still have an issue with Maria, they are protected for life at this point no reason for them to be worried about their spots. Mike Bennett seemed to be building himself up pretty well before him and Maria were together I think he'd be alright.

Seriously? While Gene was working in WCW? Yeah he even reference that fact
