  1. The Kevin Nash "I'm going over" interview from WCW.

     

    The Bill Goldberg "Someone thought turning me heel was a good idea" interview from WCW

     

    Two incredibly confusing interviews from WCW. It business exposing quotes in this is ridiculous. Friggin' mental. Scott Hudson's "something tells me the world heavyweight championship isn't as important" line is probably the best out the lot.

  2. On the same subject, I've just read that WCW paid $100,000 to use Voodoo Child. Did WWF/WWE have pay the same fee to the owners of the track back in 2002 when Hogan used it or did the deal run until a certain period and was picked up by the WWF in 2001 during the sale of WCW. I ask because if they didn't have the deal in place, surely they could have just made do with Real American upon Hogan's return instead of shelling out another 100 grand for a theme they didnt really need to use.

    101 Reasons not to be a pro wrestler (part 1)

     

    I can give you 101 reasons not to watch this pile of shit...

     

    Go on then...

    I have a few:

    1. You cant see Diamond Dallas Page's face (and that's not a bad thing ... it's ... ah never mind) because the camera work is the fucking pits.

    2. The director puts the camera on New Jack and licks his arse so bad, it's not even worth repeating. New Jack must really think he's interesting, because he never shuts the fuck up.

    3. Tylene Buck speaks (enough of a reason right there) and says her segments were higher than Goldberg's (not a stretch really, if she was talking about the period when he broke his hand on a limo window). She tells us that Goldberg came up to her and said "what is this, a porn show now", which she took offence too. Ironically, she now makes her living lezzing it up on film for no doubt the same amount of money that Lee Marshall's contract was worth in WCW.

    4. Sean O'Haire comes across as a complete tosser and has nothing of note to say.

    5. Vampiro seems to start off good, then his dickhead friends keep throwing things at him and he laughs and never gets to finish his stories.

    6. Chyna is drinking out of the back of a car in the middle of a carpark and is with some plastic bint and her fat friend, who tries to cut a wrestling promo using the immortal line "your about as big as half a minute".

     

    I'm sure there's more I can think of. But it is shit.

     

    95 to go then....

    It wasnt me who you asked to name 101 reasons. I only needed six reasons to say it's shit. But if you want to waste 3 hours of your life, I couldnt care less.

  5. Are there any rats in British wrestling, or are they only in America?

     

    I have no evidence to prove it, but a lot of the female fans that spend entire 1PW Doncaster Dome shows in the corner where the wrestlers merchandise tables are appear to be rats.

    Has anyone ever given them a foam finger?

  6. Cant tell how gutted I am that last months "Kendo 'Lover of Tranny's' Nagasaki no shows LDN and creates half-a-dozen new accounts to put himself over" thread isn't nominated. I thought it was the funniest thing since the Shitarse thread and the whole Roger thing. Hilarious. Kendo's a mad old bastard isn't he?

  7. How big of a draw was Hulk Hogan pre-WWF/1984 in the AWA and New Japan (post Rocky III). I'm just reading a old article in Power Slam from 2002 where it says "contrary to popular belief, Hulk Hogan was the biggest attraction in wrestling long before he hooked up with the World Wrestling Federation." Is this true? And where does Hulk Hogan come on a scale of popularity between him and other notable foreigners who compete in Japan (like The Steiner Brothers, The Road Warriors, Stan Hansen, Andre etc.)

  8. Whats the Matt Hardy and Katie Lea rumour?

     

    Has Teddy Hart ever wrestled on uk soil and if so for who and when?

    Teddy Hart wrestled for 1PW. He wrestled Pac at one of there shows and I believe he wrestled in a six man or something as well. He's even got his own shoot interview out under the old One Pro Wrestling distribution.

  9. As this was only weeks before the WCW purchase, I would have thought Vince would have seen dropping Michaels as an obvious cost-cutting measure.

     

    I suppose a response depends on your line of thinking. There's the case that people have suggested that Michaels had some weird psychosexual hold over McMahon.

     

    I'd look at it rather that Vince didn't have to cut costs, and so was loyal to a man who "broke his back" for the company and, like Undertaker, was a mid-90s main-eventer that didn't flee to WCW, when there was plenty of opportunity to head there.

     

    This is the first i've heard of this. What was the whole story?

     

    Near enough what Dopper said.

     

    Michaels was scheduled to appear on TV during the night of the RAW/Nitro simulcast. Hunter, Taker and others were in Vince's office to watch the show on the screen when Shawn stumbled in, totally pilled up, drooling everywhere. Taker looked at Hunter and said "Can you believe this?". Hunter tried to get Shawn out of there but Vince saw him.and told Hunter to find him and tell him he was done. Shawn cut a promo on Hunter for not sticking up for him and didn't speak to him until a year later, when he had become religious and discussed things with Nash, who directed him to talk to Hunter and apologise.

    And they all lived happily ever after. The End.

     

    Apart from Bret.

    Michael Barrymore didnt live happily ever after, either. Just thought I'd throw a random name out there as you did.
