King of Debt

Eddie Kingston. Eddie Kingston. Eddie Kingston. Goddamn.

I really feel like I'm missing something with the plaudits the Kay/Rosa match is getting - very long with not enough momentum to justify it. I'll blame the time-zone difference... The tournament was really good, though. Aldis/Gordon might grow on me but this involves me having the thought process somewhere down the line of "Hey, let's rewatch this Flip Gordon match, that might be great!", which isn't something I ever thought I'd be thinking

South Korea apparently had pro wrestling but I don't know if any footage exists. Ireland too, but the footage I linked is most likely the only pre-1970 footage that exists.

Only other one I'm aware of is this Torneo Cibernetico from CMLL, 12th November 1999. Jushin Thunder Liger/Mr. Niebla/Negro Casas/Tarzan Boy vs Blue Panther/Dr. Wagner Jr/Scorpio Jr/Shocker

Awwwwwwwwww man, that's the stuff. Thank you for compiling this!

If it's Bar Wrestling then it should be on apparently every Pivotshare channel in the goddamn universe, including their own. There's a couple of LEGO Deathmatches on Youtube though, including the Starr-Tremont-Cannonball-Gage four-way that happened at WM Weekend this year

"Trevor Murdoch, he's mad, bad and dangerous, you know he's the only man I've ever known that can strap a bucket of fried chicken on his back and ride a motor-scooter across Ethiopia, Trevor Murdoch can take care of himself..." I really hope this doesn't kill Powerrr's momentum but man, how the hell did this get through the editing process?

Has anybody here been keeping up with the Teddy Hart / Chasyn Rance stuff that's been brewing? There was a post on Last Word on Pro Wrestling FB Group asking for info on the disappearance of Teddy's ex-girlfriend in 2016. It's definitely best to read the post in full because it's very heavy stuff but TL;DR she was training in the Team Vision Dojo that Chasyn operates and though it doesn't make a direct accusation it does raise allegations that Chasyn produced "unlicensed sadistic chloroform pornographic videos for private overseas customers" and that Teddy took part in the making of these, and given both mens histories you could argue the implication isn't that much of a stretch. Pretty grim. Teddy issued a statement stating that he'd moved to Texas and she'd moved to Florida by the time they broke up and that he'd cut off all ties with Chasyn. The former got debunked on Twitter soon after, the latter fell apart when it turned out Teddy had literally shown up at Chasyn's gym the day before the statement. It's not looking good, I have to say

Everyone caught word of Survival Tobita having a singles match with Homeless Jimmy in a single Tokyo room that weekend and knew they were going to have to pull out the big draws to keep the balance of Earth in line, that's my guess. They went thirty minutes and everything!

Does it count as a step down if it was his call, though? If I remember correctly his not working DON had more to do with protecting the Dragon Gate title (even if it wasn't on the line) for Ben-K to win it at Kobe and get over than him not wanting to "do the job". It's absolutely a step down, but I really don't think he minds at all

*does CrossFit once*

I don't think it's him coming out of retirement so much as it is him wanting to go out passing the mantle, I guess.

The future of wrestling discussion is in the safest of hands, I can see
