Man, I also looked up her Wiki earlier and had the same reaction. 😂 😵‍💫

Jarrett to interrupt Copeland next week to set up a glorious TV match? It'd be logical as well as good.

I always thought it was just a different name used for the same character.

Got a WCW one, Emory Hale as The Machine vs DDP... possibly the only televised outing this millennium for a particular rope-based spot.

Damian Demento vs Bob Backlund in an ultra-rare 'battle of superstars without entrance music' at UK Rampage 93 in Sheffield. They can't have had any plans for Demento if they wouldn't get Jim Johnston in to knock up a spooky tune.

A universal CV document.

Ron Waterman

Virked himself into a shoot.

A hot angle! Having not seen alot of late, I was briefly puzzled though when Joe Tess was seemingly going on about Hugh Pugh from Barry Welsh is Coming at the start.

Eric Escobar as Vickie's latest flame. Put into a Survivor Series mega match, taken out and gone from TV in short order.

That fucking Trick will win it.

Did he work Reslo though?

Per social media... Giant Haystacks would have been 80 today.

There's a six-man tag match on one of those late Nitros, with Booker T, DDP and The Cat against Scott Steiner, Buff Bagwell and Lex Luger, or something like that... and it's fucking wicked. It's a great few months of TV and PPVs, which made it particularly gutting when what happened did.

So, I was on the bus yesterday, heading to my gym to watch the tribute show on catch-up. And whatever I was listening to via headphones on the way, it stopped right in time to hear the automated announcement... "the next stop will be Neville Street". Never recalled hearing that before, or even knowing there was one.

What a job they did with that show. They should be so proud. What a tribute to a colleague, peer, friend and fellow human being.

That was the show with the Pac and Haskins vs CIMA and Dragon Kid (I think) match I referenced earlier, astonishing match if you get chance to see it.

Love this idea.

I spilled onto the streets today after hearing this awful news and the first song I heard was 'Learning to Fly' by Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers. Stayed put until the end, found it quite moving. He was an incredible athlete. My old man has not taken much interest in wrestling since Rick Martel retired. I remember him popping in as I was watching Pac and Mark Haskins vs CIMA and Dragon Kid (I think that was the match) from a Dragon Gate UK show and even he was wowed by it. High praise indeed. Did a few shows with him over the years and he was so quiet and soft spoken, so very different from his television character, which goes to show how good he was at that character. Bumped into a wrestler today who recalled asking a promoter where Pac was... having just met and shaken hands with "Ben" minutes earlier. Like a real life 'Clark Kent to Superman'. I noted tonight someone had put a framed photo in Newcastle city centre out of tribute today and I hope he's remembered up there as the great son of Newcastle he was. What can you say? Just terrible news.

I'm sure the man who wanted a boob job for his gimmick has completely sound judgment.

James Mason is in every British wrestling TV clip of the past 30 years.

Yeah that was meant to be a big program following WrestleMania VIII, kickstarted by the post-match at Mania. Cagematch reckons they only worked twice - on the same day, as well.

Warrior spinning off into softball, running the bases for a homer, as his 1996 pyro went off, sounds ace, tbh.

There would have never been the need for an Attitude Era if we got Ultimate Ahmed. Imagine Vince doing the Mania VI intro for Warrior vs Big Tone at Mania XIII. Bischoff and Paul E. coming down at the end, putting their blazers down in the middle of the ring.

I'd like to think it's Paul Vault of NWA Hammerlock.
