I really should just leave all of this stuff to Chris. He's way more organized.
-
Graham lists just one match against Pedro, and my list dropped anyone who only had 1 over the course of a year, just to clean it up a bit. I'm guessing there were more, but only one is documented there.
-
And just for fun, here's what I've got separated by year for the individual champs. Mostly the same criteria as Chris. Only singles matches against the champ. Anyone with only one match in the year was dropped from the list, to clean it up slightly.

That will add a lot of Koloff to the list, as well.
-
I don't see Spiros Arion on your list. Is this everybody? Ack. Sorry, I was in a hurry to throw that up before I left the office. I meant to say that was everything from his first reign. I'll have the second reign, plus the combined list later. I'm just going through Graham Cawthon's listings, so there are obviously gaps, but I think there's enough information that percentages will be reasonably close, even if hard numbers aren't.

To answer one of Dylan's questions about shots against Bruno. Here's a quick tally of guys with multiple singles matches against Bruno during his reign. If you meant specifically at MSG, I'd have to look again. Working on tallying up the others through at least Backlund. Gorilla Monsoon - 105 Waldo Von Erich - 77 Killer Kowalski - 71 Toru Tanaka - 63 Bill Miller - 55 Hans Mortier - 51 Baron Mikel Scicluna - 44 George Steele - 34 Luke Graham - 33 Jerry Graham - 26 Curtis Iaukea - 24 Smasher Sloan - 22 Ivan Koloff - 20 The Beast - 18 Bulldog Brower - 17 Bill Watts - 16 Virgil The Kentucky Butcher - 15 Freddie Blassie - 14 Tarzan Tyler - 14 Bull Ortega - 13 The Golden Terror - 12 The Shadow - 12 Bull Ramos - 11 Gene Kiniski - 11 Magnificent Maurice - 11 The Sheik - 11 Johnny Powers - 10 Karl Kovacs - 9 Klondike Bill - 9 Buddy Austin - 8 Tank Morgan - 8 Brute Bernard - 7 Skull Murphy - 7 Crusher Verdu - 6 Lou Albano - 6 Tony Altimore - 6 Tony Nero - 6 Dan Miller - 5 Frank Martinez - 5 Joe Quinones - 5 Pedro Rodriguez - 5 Boris Malenko - 4 Frank Hickey - 4 Giant Baba - 4 Johnny Valentine - 4 Rocky Fitzpatrick - 4 The Destroyer - 4 Bepo Mongol - 3 Geto Mongol - 3 Gordo Chihuahua - 3 Johnny Barend - 3 Ray Stevens - 3 Art Nielson - 2 Bob Boyington - 2 Bobo Brazil - 2 Bull Johnson - 2 Cal West - 2 Duke Hoffman - 2 Joe Cox - 2 Johnny Boyd - 2 Jos LeDuc - 2 Jose Quintero - 2 Mitsu Arakawa - 2 Ox Anderson - 2 Paul Reinhardt - 2 Rocky Cookson - 2 The Black Demon - 2 The Crusher - 2 Tiger Jeet Singh - 2

Ian also posted it on his personal page. It's legit.
-
He has a degree of control over storylines and talent booked, but the shows are still being run by the individual promotions.
-
When the switch from Speed to FS1 happened, DirecTV moved them from the 600s up to 216, right next to ESPN, MLB, NFL, NBA, NHL and NBC Sports.
-
FXX is built around comedy. They bought syndication rights for Parks and Rec, Arrested Development, Sports Night, How I Met Your Mother, Freaks & Geeks, Spin City, and a few other big shows.

Someone find a way to make a wrestling version of Flickchart. -
Patterson specifically noted that they had notarized addendum that contained a weight-based escape claim. (However, future legal scholars have noted that since the language referenced "weight" and not "mass", thus Albano could have fought in Moon Court to retain Pat.) Surely that would have been a bad idea. I've heard Pat does most of his fighting in moon courts.

JR also has Bell's palsy and slurs everything because his face is paralyzed. He seems like normal JR there.

He made it his Twitter avatar two weeks ago and GIS shows no evidence of it being around before that time. -

Some bad news, Dylan. Saturday was the last Metro Pro show for at least a long while. Time Warner Cable just signed a big deal with KU athletics for the station, and lots of programming changes are coming down. Wrestling was one of the cuts, and without access to the cameras/editing equipment at the tv station, Chris doesn't want to sacrifice the quality of the product just to keep going. So the promotion is going on an indefinite hiatus, and I don't know if it will ever really come back. At the very least, Chris wants to run a show for Wyatt's retirement, which is probably coming in the next year or so. We went out with a fucking bang, though. Crazy, bloody dog collar match with Wyatt and Pearce for the belt. Will make one hell of a last episode.

I am hoping someone (Bix?) is getting all this on disc.
-
Stop and say hi at intermission or something at the next 3XW show if you come.

Had a 3XWrestling show on the 26th. Got Metro Pro coming up this weekend.

I don't suppose there's any chance of this yearbook just being a couple pages longer than usual because of the increased class size?
