Johnny Sorrow Posted July 28, 2014 Report Share Posted July 28, 2014 I honestly apologize for being wasted. This was done during a marathon recording where I had put away a huge bottle of Margarita mix. I was like Jeff Hardy against Sting in that TNA match .

JerryvonKramer Posted July 28, 2014 Author Report Share Posted July 28, 2014 Johnny is only truly "wasted" during the first 10 minutes or so of this. If you're wondering how he gets progressively more sober, it's because we recorded the intro last. I mention this, because I don't want him claiming that his insane defense of Strongbow was under the influence! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigBadMick Posted July 28, 2014 Report Share Posted July 28, 2014 Random thought that popped into my head. One of the funniest signs I ever saw was in ECW arena, autumn of 1995, concerning Sandman - A Beer is a Terrible Thing to Waste Are fans as smart ie literate, witty, connected to anything outside wrestling anymore?

I'd like to congratulate the rest of the gang for their patience with Johnny 'Art Donovan' Sorrow. And Johnny too - rambling wildly but still making coherent points about Stampede wrestling's legacy - kudos! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kevin Ridge Posted August 6, 2014 Report Share Posted August 6, 2014 Oh my goodness. Ha, couldn't help but laugh at Johnny being messed up. What an intro, "I'm drunk". Liked that we returned back to WWF TV tapings. Good to get back to some angles/promos. Well done on the Joe McHugh bio. I like his delivery on introductions. This was the Sgt. Slaughter show and it rules. McHugh chasing after Sarge was hilarious. Loved these Cobra Clutch challenges and how it built up with each guy. Crowd was going nuts that McGraw was going to break it al the way up to Patterson where fans was so fired up. Slaughter having the cotton balls in his ears was awesome. I just love how he interacts with the crowd getting them to cheer Gomer more and more. Oh, we needed the full G.I.Joe the Movie theme song to be played! Had to watch it on youtube when I got home. Johnny calling Strongbow a good worker in that shark cage match?! Black Demon and Kelly. A perfect match. I hope this all leads to Kelly putting together a ranking of the best 100 jobbers. The end stuff with Patterson and Slaughter was so great. Pat getting busted open, Slaughter refusing to let go of the Clutch, the crowd shots! But "The Van" took this to the next level when he got a hold of the chair. Dominic adding to his legendary status. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
