I thought this was really good

'92 Royal Rumble features Randy Savage eliminating himself by jumping over the top rope to get after Jake Roberts. The Undertaker crawls out of the ring and drags Savage back into the ring as the commentators cover for Savage by saying he's not out as he threw himself over the top rope. About ten minutes later The Big Bossman goes over the top rope by missing a Crossbody Dive and slingshotting out of the ring without anyone touching him, but is eliminated.That's the only major elimination cock-up I can think of.

Jay Ross. He doesn't wrestle anymore as he gave up the business to continue his real job as a computer expert, which he earns a lot more from than he ever did from wrestling; even in WCW.

Funk was looking for a weapon but there were none in the ring, he shouted out to the crowd to throw him a chair. One person threw one, then another and then about three hundred other people.

Are we allowed to make jokes about the Lexx incident yet? >_>

Nigel McGuinness entrance music question time. What song is the opening taken from? I'm guessing its some cover of 'London Bridge', but dunno who by. Which song does the music then go into? Thanks.

One of the main vampire clans are called the Brujah, and use what often looks like an upside Anarchy symbol as their ensignia. Fertig's emblem could be a take off of that.

I think the VK name was just a shot at Vince and was he was probably turned back to Michael for legal reasons.

Its also spelt without an 'E' on the t-shirt

I stand corrected. UWA was the first placed I'd ever heard of him using it.

Awesome work UKHardGay, I don't think anyone could do this idea justice apart from you. A very interesting list and I'm more inclined to agree with this year's list than last year's, which may just be down to the fact that I've seen more wrestling over the last 12 months than in the previous year to that. Great to see Burridge crack the top five as he has been the standout wrestler of the last year for me, no surprise to see Doug retain top spot but I was disappointed to see Jody Fleisch and Alex Shane finish so high when they have had non-existent and medicore years by their usual standards. Maybe as Irish people have been allowed in this year, women will be allowed in next year? Or if they already are and did not make it due to votes, maybe get a seperate poll of say 20 or so is in order? I only say 20 as I think most people would struggle to name more than that.

What has Doug Williams done that is so "anarchic"?From what i see he is a straight laced wrestler and one of the best technical wrestlers in the Uk.

I odnt mind, its making me laugh. Its been a good morning up to now for laughter.

So.... Why not bring this up with the people directly (Who for the most part post on here) instead of posting this private email about the inner-workings of the industry on a fans public forum?

Especially as the main time that anyone on here would have seen the crop of the ASW guys is when they appeared on TNA and looked decidedly average at best.

Maybe for you if you are from the USA mate but the majority of UKFFers have the opportunity to see them in a town / city not far from them. All Star is the promotion that was used on ITV - World of Sport in the last year of wrestling being on ITV alongside Dale Martin promotions and to be a good wrestler in the UK it means something to work for them. All Star provide full time work for their wrestlers and are not a part time promotion.

Well three of what would have been my top five (I missed the voting thread somehow despite being involved in the first round, D'oh!) have come up in the last lot (Stone, Majik and Brookside) so I'll be interested in seeing who will be taking the top spots. Its been a great rundown so far, I have to say that Jay Phoenix so high up has been the biggest surprise but I'm guessing his placing is more to do with his 1PW place than his actual talent. As despite being impressed by him at BHW last weekend, I personally wouldn't rate him that highly.

The only match I've ever heard of being pre-recorded backstage and shown during a live event was the Undertaker Vs. Mankind, Boiler Room Brawl match, where they showed a 20 minute or so video of taped action and then they fought through the curtain and did the closing sequence live.

Seems strange that Kimberly would be the benefactor all along. Was Page heel at this point? And was he still heel when he won that awful Battlebowl thing at Slamboore '96?

Yes, but do you have any idea about the mystery benefactor?Also, did The Booty Man just surplant Badd in the feud as Kimberly suddenly turned up as the Booty Babe, IIRC.

Bit of an old WCW question here. During Diamond Dallas Page's feud with Johnny B Badd, where he just constantly kept on losing, lost Kimberly and so on, it was announced he had a mystery benefactor keeping him in the federation, but I've always heard it was killed off as the nWo angle was soon to kick in. Does anyone have any idea who it was supposed to be and where it was supposed to lead?

From the WCW Superstars Series - Kevin Nash 'The Outsider' - In its full hour long goodness.

Man... I still get goosebumps from Jericho's WWF debut.

Ian hitmanhart, apparently.

Daniels had loads of matches with the WWF/E as a jobber, his highest profile one was probably his WWF Lightheavyweight Title match against then reigning champion, Jerry Lynn.
