Surf Digby

I think "coloured" has something to do with an implication that these people were coloured, rather than are coloured, as a means of indicating to others their lower status. It's one of those that when you ask people why it's offensive, they go all tight lipped and just fluster at you.

Jericho. Nice hair.Scotty 2 Hotty. Try this worm for size!I can't believe I posted in this thread.Vince. It'd get me a job.

Where's Surf Digby? Get him back indoors.

Eh?

Momi, Welcome, I Hope you Find the Girl of Your dreams here, If Not.... I will put on a Wig and paint my nails Red.... 

Red? ooh, how common.[EDIT] Damn, walked right into Majik's trap!

She's right, y'know. We're an ugly bunch.

Hey! I'm fookin' gawww-juss, I'll have ye know!Ulf's Dustbin Lid ~~~~~~~

Oh and if u like wrestling so much u'd know who the lady is in my avatar

Erm, according to your MPW profile, that is you! You know when you need a piss, and you laugh so hard that you get lower abdominal pains? I'm there, baby!

I think the worry is that BYWers are influenced by pro-wrestling, and there will be a knee jerk reaction to this with people saying "we don't want pro wrestling on TV, 'cos it'll influence our kids to start mimicking it and get hurt".

I'll happily add my support to anyone else going for legend status.

I'm already there!! From another forum earlier this year...

Seriously though I'd like to welcome the legend that is Surf Digby to the forum. I mark out for those Mattitude things u make!!!!

I will say one thing, I dont care what you all say, it didnt put British Wrestling in a bad light, why? Because it wasnt about british wrestling it was about backyard wrestling!

But it DID emphasise thae fact that it was the UK BYW scene, rather than the BYW culture as a whole. Dropkixx (a "legitimate" UK promotion) has already had some flack in this thread for - what was essentially - encouraging some BYWers to mix it up in the ring. A lot of people - especially those looking for an excuse to criticise - are going to view this programme with blinkered eyes. "Oh look, even the so-called schools are happy for them to slam each other about without training". Knockers of wrestling are gonna knock it whatever. This has just given them some ammo.Johnnyboy, you're a legend dude!

the only two members of that XHW fed. (Which, by the way, featured the lamest bumps ever.)

Bumps in BYW should be lame. BYW should be "play wrestling", not consensual mutilation. The light tube, barbed wire, stop sign malarky shouldn't occupy the same sentence as the word wrestling.

Pretty shocked that there was no 'moralistic tone' added to the end of the show.

That was surprising. The end speech by Burch about how BYW has a great community and how it's amazing that nationwide events can be organised by 16 year olds does make some sense. The only thing in the whole programme that was remotely "don't try this at homish" was it mentioning that BYWers are seeking pro training, but as a whole it still promoted BYW - particularly the hardcore stuff (comments about how NLW had to resort to the "Cage of Death" to get acceptance, and how the injuries "only hurt for a minute") - as a good thing.

By the way, the link to your website is wrong.

Well I think we can say goodbye to getting British wrestling back on TV in the next 10 years. I hope the 'wrestlers' who participated in this documentry are proud of themselves.

Damn good point actually. Maybe some of the "proper" feds in England (including one that did a bit of broadcast quality filming last Friday) should contact C4 and demand that they cover the "legitimate" UK scene so as not to have all UK wrestlers tarred with the same brush.Bloody 'ell! The Nature Boy's on now! They're certainly showing how innovative they are.

a bunch of brain-dead little twats trying to act like real professional wrestlers.

Shit, I must have missed that bit. All I saw were light tube shots a plenty and flabby teenagers saying how great it is to be called a legend.Who's this Joanne that Krieger's on aboot? The Geordie ginger failing to smash a guitar over La Parka (I wonder if that was the real one) in front of 5 people?

I'll piss about in my garden with mates and next doors kids, but that's all we do. Lame snapmares, forearm smashes and elbow drops. If I wanted to have some sugar high 16 year old drop me on my head I'd join a school where there's insurance and safety measures. Wrestling in your backyard for a bit of fun on a summers day is one thing, having someone smash a light tube over your back to get a cheer from a "crowd" of 8 people is another.

Yeah, nice plug for Dropkixx. It's a bit of a bizarre show so far. It's still making out that BYW's cool, and they'll probably go for the moralistic bit in the last segment which'll be too late as the young impressionable light tube buying teenies will already be sold on it.On "Burch's" last BYW match, why was the commentary being done by Micheal Jackson from Bo' Selecta?Jeez, there are easier ways to be called an internet legend, y'know. Shit, if I can do it then any body can.

After hearing "Blade" attempting to play guitar, I'm actually looking forward to seeing him have a lawnmower smashed over his head.

If people can leave photos of thenmselves it would help me I know that.

Somebody drag the picture thread back up and put some more pics in. Ebbguy, need a pic of you from the front (for starters. Got another possible one, but will take a bit of doing to get it looking good).

I'm just amazed at the amount of mileage people have got just out of Bagga & Moorish.

I'm still amazed that anybody could get Lower Occipital Protubance into one.Anybody know where there's a pic of Ebbguy?

Second of the MPW themed posts.

Raiders Of The Lower Occipital Protubance

LMAO! That one rules!Cheers to Banocref for hosting these for me.

Woohoo! Barramya getting some top gags in there!

Ok, it sucks...

but at least you're getting into it, and let's face it, my Ulf's Dustbin Lid is hardly a work of art, and the gag's lost on the younger posters.I have to say that I love my Banocref one though. I've spent all day trying to think of one for him. I need to get another account at mysigs now 'cos I've filled it.

Use the search function to dig up the Picture Thread. That's where I took all mine from.
