  1. You would assume. Identities of their masked workers would also be an issue someone decided to go rogue too. On the WWE Youtube page WWE uploaded what I believe a USWA match for the first time. USWA Challenge 10/28/90 - Lawler vs Slater
  2. Looks of people woke up to the events page looking like this. Some pissed off as they booked Summer Holidays around seeing them. Some even are saying they bought plane tickets: http://www.chikarapro.com/jul-20-2013.php All event titles were from George Harrison songs from All Things Must Pass. Mike Johnson says some roster members were pulled aside and were told to sign Non Disclosure Agreements.
  3. Agree with Dylan. Either have way too much going on to take those risks but total career match for Taryn here.
  4. For those who don't know without going into titanic amounts of backstory. Chikara essentially did the ending of Sopranos. Some aren't happy at all. The glass door to the venue of smashed. This could be a thread worthy topic but as a dirty Euro I never really understood the American intolerance of a open ended ending. Whether it be the aforementioned Sopranos or a Their Will Be Blood.
  5. Amused by CHIKARA dropping the next set of clues before their big tag title match everyone online and in the arena are all busy researching them. Should have saved it for intermission.
  6. Speaking of interviews Steve Corino announced he just a 4 hour shoot with Eric Embry for Highspots.
  7. Thought this video by Matt Hardy pushing his feud with Kevin Steen was particularly inspired:
  8. After speaking to the prosecuting attorney Meltzer outlines the Zumhofe situation in long, uncomfortable detail in the latest Observer. Haven't felt as uneasy reading something in the Observer since the Benoit murder suicide. I don't think I need to recap stories of sexual abuse nor I want to. But what the attorney was most troubled by is that so many people inside the Wrestling community knew and didn't come forward to report it.
  9. Cesaro is now German and not Swiss: From WWE's official Youtube channel. I really hope this is just a mistake and not an ill advised repackaging.
  10. Blehschmidt fix yourself a coffee or two and read the http://olewrestling.com/ blog since May 23rd. You really can drill as deep as you want to go with theories and speculation. It is a genuinely amazing thing they have created. My best guess is a rebranding. I heard a rumor some months back that I shared with a few people from this board privately. I'm still a little iffy about talking about it publicly, but the gist of it was that all these "Wrestling is...." and various National Pro Wrestling Day quasi-feds were Quack fronts that he had set up because it's unwise to cheat on your rich wife, who might eventually come after you and try and take the name/company she financed. No clue of the truth of that but it's something I heard a while back YAY someone finally posts this online so I don't have to tiptoe around it. I normally respect CHIKARA's kayfabe but I heard the same thing as Dylan but more of a story of Quack has decreased financial backing to that change in his personal circumstances - for example there's no fly ins or big names on the iPPV. *Update on this post* Mike Johnson did say there is an issue with the ownership of the CHIKARA name but between whom he did not say.
  11. Don't want to trivialise a crime given the impact on the victim but doesn't this seemingly confirm most people's thoughts/gut instinct on the guy:
  12. CHIKARA are seemingly about to do something really ambitious these two blogs explain things better than I could: http://olewrestling.com/chikara-wrestling/...-to-be-huge.htm http://olewrestling.com/chikara-wrestling/...hibald-peck.htm
  13. Yeah had the same feelings. Mystified at the praise. No real new info or particularly well written or cohesive. The premise was much more interesting than the article itself. It did get me to think about buying the latest Total Extreme Warfare games and downloading a 2001 scenario to play with though. Mike Johnson often plays that game aloud himself. Low Ki somewhat famously got his start date for ECW at Guilty As Charged 2001. So there's your bridge to that era of guys.
  14. Sharing this with everyone. For those who don't know Twitter exposes Big E Langston as a super sharp funny guy. So anyway he and Brawer posted this pic: Legendarily great.
  15. Funker broke his retirement:
  16. Holzerman got some sort of deranged validation from being called out like this from his. Dylan Waco holler at your boy.
  17. Matthew Norman of the UK Telegraph thinks Dave should get a Pulitzer! http://www.telegraph.co.uk/sport/otherspor...tzer-Prize.html
  18. A year overdue. You have to feel for Sami if you follow him on Social Media you would know his father is or has been on death's door. He regularly asks for prayer for him. Going through WWE medicals, screening tests etc is stressful enough. Interested to see how his 60 minute PWG Iron Man pans out with Adam Cole.
  19. Bryan seemed rather annoyed on his audio about Dave getting this big write up and all people cant talk about is his writing room. The dirt worst thing Written about it: http://wallsofjerichoholic.blogspot.ie/201...s-computer.html
  20. Using a CRT monitor is pretty gangster. I hope Dave is just looking something up and doesn't normally sit like that.
  21. Dylan Waco et al. any thoughts on Ted DiBiase's first match back on TV in the first match of Superstars: Link to the show http://www.dailymotion.com/video/xzsgy0_ww...=2#.UY-bQbWG2Sq He looked really impressive.
  22. A take down of Babinsak's latest shitastic review of a Shimmer DVD: http://wallsofjerichoholic.blogspot.co.uk/...iew-my-dog.html Please tweet this to Bryan or Dave if you are on Twitter. Enough is enough.
