I said the same thing on Twitter as Tensai totally sandbagged him

Now that is AWESOME

Could've been fake Bees I guess but I remember one of the matches being televised and it looked like them. They were working heelish whoever they were.

The Bees worked a non descript feud against the Young Stallions for like a month where they heeled it up.

Brody was a mega babyface in World Class for years when he would go in and out. Brunzell did work heel for a short time when the Bees had a run in like 1988.

Russo is one of those guys who is a good guy to have around to bounce ideas but as the main guy in charge he was way in over his head. There have been many bookers like that over the years and writers in general on TV.

I would vote for Dandy because he was the total package as a worker as he could do everything you wanted him to at a high level. He could fly, he could wrestle, he could be a chickenshit, he could be a tough guy, he could be a tecnico, and his psychology was as sound as anyone in that era. Sure he was never the main guy for EMLL but you could argue that he was the best worker in the promotion which at that time was filled with a lot of great workers.

This is his greatest comeback ever.

I actually think that the fans helped the show go on because they didn't tap out of the show when it happened. They were still into what was going on even the last Anger Management skit which took place after the incident and the fans were audibly laughing at the end. I think most other cities would've been pretty much done after seeing Lawler get taken out.

Lauryn posted this pic of Jerry on her Facebook page per his request to let everyone know he is doing better.

Yeah this is like Flair circa 1985 defending his title against Pez Whatley as the main event of a Greensboro Coliseum show.

And now it's changed to Jerry's girlfriend Lauryn will be doing a live interview via phone

Kevin Lawler is saying that Jerry will be doing an interview with WMC that will be on their website soon.

Cole just tweeted this

Ken Shamrock was more successful in pro wrestling than Lesnar was by a large margin. Look at his Japan resume.

Per Meltz Lawler is a true King of men.

Did he appoint the bookers himself? If so, he would get credit for knowing who to put in to be successful (and any associated failings), right? Jimmy appointed bookers yes but when it came to being more hands on David was the guy, Jimmy would get more hands on later and that would in effect help kill his promotion.

Stacy Carter has confirmed the reports that there is no brain damage

Jim Crockett Jr. is an interesting candidate to me because I'm seeing a lot of people voting for him when while he was the promoter his bookers were more important to his success than he was. Whether it was George Scott, Ole, Dory, or Dusty the bookers made his promotion what it was. His father and even his brother David was way more important to the promotion than he was at least in my opinion. Jimmy wasn't even a big wrestling guy he was more into the baseball team and other stuff but David was the wrestling mind of the bunch.

For those who have never seen the II/Assassin promo battle that I wrote about. Alvarez linked to it in today's news update. It's one of the all-timers.

Honky Tonk Man brought up a great point this morning about him having this happen in Aruba this weekend. He would've been dead.

His peak run started in 1974 in the feud with Mr. Wrestling as he became his equal and not just his partner and the end of the peak was at the end of 1980. II was still a top player until his last run in Mid-South which was his revival but he was never as big as he was in the late 70's.

I voted for The Assassins last year and they just missed the cut this time. If Buddy Rose wasn't on the ballot they would've been on the list. Thanks for the kind words.

Per Scott Bowden

Yeah Kevin Nash booked the tour and he worked all the shows
