Loss

Recommended Posts

The only other person I can recall getting this kind of consistent mocking of their sexuality in snide asides is Pat Patterson, and, well, all those gay-bashing jokes Ross kept hitting on him did have that kernel of truth of course.

Lots of regular sexualy snide asides were also aimed at Ross. Heyman, and Cornette as being homosexuals on commentary as well.

 

I'm trying to remember which face Flair always talked about as having hard time swallowing his nut.

 

When has JR ever been called gay on commentary?

 

 

Let's not forget Gorilla's constant mention of the Terry Garvin School of Self-Defense.

Granted, I haven't watched a full episode of RAW in months and haven't watched SD period in even longer, so I'm not quite up to date on what's going on. But did anyone see Edge's loss and win coming at all? I thought it was weird that they put mid carders like Kofi and Knox in the Chamber match, but I wouldn't have called Edge winning the World Title in a million years.

 

I figured that Edge would either win his match and then lose the WWE Title to HHH at WM, or he'd lose it in the Chamber to HHH and then challenge him at WM.

 

Well they have been teasing Edge's "breakdown" for a couple weeks on Smackdown. They have been hinting at a Big Show/Vickie relationship that's driving Edge mental. I figured he might lose the SD title but had no idea he's win the Raw one. I'm guessing HHH/Orton will happen now with HHH defending the Mcmahon name.

Stolen from WCMB (Bret Hart in his autobiography about Ric Flair) :

 

1989, Bret feels like he's not making enough money, and Brian Pillman gives him Flair's number:

"I knew Flair liked me, because Bobby Heenan had brought him into the WWF dressing room earlier in the year, just to meet me.... We chatted for a time, and he left me saying that if I ever needed a place to go, to call him. Now seemed like the right time."

 

Okay, I need to know - does anybody of you gentlemen believe that? I myself am unsure if I should be confused or greatly amused. Maybe both.

That Roddy Piper promo last night is probably the best interview I've seen in wrestling in years, and it actually got me excited about current wrestling (not a small task).

For a guy who is known to have promos where he's ranting and raving, Piper is actually at his best with emotional interviews like that one.

I have actually heard this story before. The WWF was doing a house show in Nashville on May 6, 1989, and the NWA had Wrestle War the next day. The WWF used to do this all the time so they could run house shows really late into the night to exhaust or turn people away from attending the PPV the next day. Anyway, Flair was in town because the NWA was in Nashville too, and that's where he met Bret.

 

Bret mentioned a story of them having a brief encounter years earlier than that in his book too, but there really wasn't much to the story.

Supposedly, Jericho has future confrontations on the horizon with Jimmy Snuka and Sgt. Slaughter. Neither one of those seem like they would do a great promo, I'd rather see them use Michael Hayes and bring Dusty Rhodes up from Florida for a night. Jerry Lawler is also right there.

Well this angle is going to run all the way to Wrestlemania so there's still time.

Mike Von Erich was the brother who’d never wanted to wrestle. He and Chris were so much younger that they had grown up as their own entity. Mike was a mama’s boy and fairly unnerved when, at age five, he was introduced to baby brother Chris. According to Doris, she cured that by ignoring the baby when she brought him home. She told Mike that no one wanted Chris, so Mike took it upon himself to become Chris’s protector. As the two entered their teens, they grew even closer, tied together in part by their failure to imitate their brothers’ athletic success.

 

When Mike commited suicide he left a note behind and left a bag of Placidyl for Chris to take when he was ready to get out.

 

According to an old friend of Kerry’s, to toughen them up, Fritz would tie them (the teenage boys) together by their feet, hang them from a beam, and have them fight upside down.

Crazy murder plot involved in family of Nick Hogan's car crash victim

 

By Dave Meltzer

 

Pinellas County Sheriff's detectives arrested Ed Graziano, 53, the estranged husband of Debbie Graziano, and father of John Graziano, and charged him with attempting to pay for a hit on his wife.

 

John Graziano is the victim in the Nick Bollea auto accident that ended with Bollea serving time behind bars.

 

The arrest today was the culmination of a two-and-a-half month long undercover investigation by the Sheriff's Office Criminal Investigative Division. Graziano is alleged to have had multiple meetings with a police informant, and later with an undercover police officer posing as a conduit for a hit man, offering to pay or the murder of his wife, who is 56.

 

Graziano is alleged to have paid $1,100 in cash, $1,000 in a personal check as well as gave a $13.06 gift card to a local pizza place in exchange for a hit man to murder his wife earlier this week.

 

Several meetings were held to allegedly put together the hit, including at shopping malls, at the hosptial and at a gas station. Graziano was arrested at 11:30 a.m. at his home in Palm Harbor, FL.

 

The department had been given information in December that Graziano was attempting to hire someone to murder his wife. They followed up on the tip and determined the belief the tip was legitimate, and immediately met with Debbie Graziano and her lawyer.

 

Deputies claim that Edward Graziano told the officer posing as a conduit that Graziano said he would like his wife killed in an auto accident, and then gave his wife's usual schedule to help in planning, as well as make sure he has an alibi.

 

*****************************

 

13.06 gift card? What a cheap ass. I sprang for a $25.00 subway gift certificate when I paid a hitman to kill my wife.

Yeah, the gift card is the part that got me too. And this is coming from someone whose family also suffered at the hands of a crazy guy who tried to hire a hitman and wound up in jail (long personal story, don't ask) but that thirteen dollars and six cents was the part that got me. How does that even work? Was it one of those debit card-like gift cards, where the dude had already used it there once before and thus produced the odd number?

Looking for help trying to identify what show a certain Midnight Express vs. RnR match is from. The only thing I can remember is the Midnight's get DQed when they knock the ref out of the ring and they leave with all the belts.

 

Any help would be appreciated.

The ROH press release about Flair coming in says that Flair is critical of the tactics Nigel McGuinness is using to win matches. That's the dumbest thing I've ever heard. Ric Flair, critical of the way someone is winning matches? Really?

Awesomeness. Maybe Nigel isn't being dirty enough...?

 

I wonder who wrote that up, and if they thought it was something actually decent.
