strobogo Posted May 2 Report Share Posted May 2 AAA US joint show from 2021 featuring Paul London vs Val Venis, a gauntlet match featuring Penta, Brian Cage, Buff Bagwell, and Don Frye as a manager for Daga against Konnan's Alberto El Patron is probably a show worth tracking down, right? :skip Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Thread Killer Posted May 15 Report Share Posted May 15 So apparently Billy Jack Haynes has been declared mentally unfit to stand trial for his wife’s murder. He has been sent to a mental hospital until he is deemed able to stand trial. I have already seen some people freaking out about this like he is getting away with something, but from my experience working in the system, life is a heck of a lot easier in prison than it is in a secure, state run mental hospital. Those places are a nightmare. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ricky Jackson Posted May 17 Report Share Posted May 17 It's not really my place to post about this since I'm not an admin and have no desire to become one, and not to be disrespectful to anyone who is, but is anyone out there that posts and visits here regularly interested in becoming an admin? Mostly wondering because GWE is coming up next year, and there appears to be interest around here, including several new posters joining expressly for that purpose, but the admin in charge is rarely around these days and nothing is being updated. Also, I noticed there hasn't even been a folder for 2025 added to the match discussion archive and we are in May, as another example of the general lack of maintenance around here. Again, I'm not looking to become an admin, my interest in wrestling is super low right now, even for old school stuff. But this was/is a great place and it would be a shame for it to completely die when enough folks are still interested in contributing. The problem as I see it is that most of the admins seem to no longer be around, and this place has been slowly dying for years. Not pointing any fingers or making demands, but this was an awesome place for wrestling discussion and still can be. I just want to see PWO thrive if possible. But maybe this is just how it is these days. Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Thread Killer Posted May 17 Report Share Posted May 17 You could try contacting Charles via DM on Twitter, he will probably get back to you and maybe have some input about adding some new mods, at least. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm interested if I can ban all anti-Mauro and anti-Christian posts. Seriously though, I have no real interest myself, but a new admin or two would probably be great to have. With that said, PWO is surprisingly cordial without any real admin presence. People here generally disagree without it turning into a toxic wasteland. That's really rare, especially for a wrestling forum. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ricky Jackson Posted May 17 Report Share Posted May 17 The vibes have almost always been great around here, there just needs to be closer management of some of the sub forums (GWE, Match Discussion, etc) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Flyin' Brian Posted May 18 Report Share Posted May 18 Scrolling through YouTube and came across this video. Hopefully they can work something out. https://youtu.be/6FBPRC8eb80?si=4v1s42X-ICaefrqN Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
El-P Posted May 18 Report Share Posted May 18 Nah, I'm good. Plus let's be real, if I was to become an admin, the *very first thing* I would do would be to ban one member that should have been banned a few years back but wasn't (don't ask, those you know know. I still have *that* screenshot somewhere though, so there you go). 😎 With that I have zero interest in GWE. Done it twice. First one was fun. It was an era. Second one, less so. I've reach the point where ranking pro-wrestlers is a completely uninteresting idea to me. My list would probably be funny as fuck though and would give any old-schooler brain trauma. As far as the forum goes, the activity it what it is. It's a forum. Forums are dead. It's sad in a way, but it's how it goes. Nothing lasts forever.

sek69 Posted May 21 Report Share Posted May 21 The guy who made the original Fiend mask made a version for Bray's son because his birthday wish was to dress up like his dad, in case you needed a reminder the world hasn't totally gone to shit.

The video isn't showing up for me, but I'm sure we all know what you're referring to. Still the greatest match of all time in my book. You know something is an absolute banger when you can just say the date it took place and people will know what you're talking about.

The Thread Killer Posted June 9 Report Share Posted June 9 Not to be a deliberate contrarian, but I always slightly preferred 05/21/94 over 06/09/95. But obviously, both are all timers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can we revisit this? The incredibly irritating and unfixed for years board glitches are beyond tiresome. If there's no tech support person who can fix and update the forum, at least it would be nice to have an admin around who can erase the inaccessible posts with apostrophes/quotes in the title, since - God forbid - it slipped my mind because this isn't an issue on any other forum (even the ancient hasn't been updated since 1997 Wrestling Classics).

JRH Posted June 11 Report Share Posted June 11 While this is kind of referring to another forum, I might as well ask since its an important part of IWC culture, is there a complete archive of the Death Valley Driver Video Review out there? The forum main page doesnt have nearly enough, and it was a good way to discover obscure stuff and even different takes on well known stuff.

strobogo Posted June 18 Report Share Posted June 18 WWE should have had Bruno in a match, be it singles or tag or battle royale, once Bruno/WWE reunion happened, and at the time Bruno was doing old man body building shit and somehow shredded at like 75.

ohtani's jacket Posted June 19 Report Share Posted June 19 Speaking of this admin thing, why do we still need to wait for mod approval on posts when the match database clearly isn't a priority anymore? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As someone who basically only posts in the match database, I often wonder this and the turnaround time on approval has become slower. I think I do a pretty good job using the proper title format. Maybe after a certain number of posts, people like me and OJ can just get special dispensation/access/status to make threads in there, that would be great. I will keep the proper title format.

It's almost been a month and nothing. I don't understand why we need approval to post new posts in the database if Wrestling Playlists has superseded it. Are we supposed to stop making new posts?
