What happened to the Bashams and the Highlanders? Are they still going around the indies?

 

I've not seen any of their names pop up anywhere for a good while, and the fact that none of them appears to have an official website, or appear on any indy fed/booking agent websites (I've not scoured the depths of the internet, mind, but you'd expect it to pop up in the first 20 or so Google results) suggests that if they are doing anything, it's sporadic and probably local to them.

 

The Highlanders Wiki page has a picture of one of them (Robbie? The one with hair who went to watch TNA during Mania weekend) from an indy show in January of last year where he looks about 1/2 the size he was in WWE, which suggests he's at least given it up as a full-time thing.

Highlander Robbie has cut off his long hair and the big beard and now wrestles as Guillotine Graham or Robert Graham around Ontario. He was on the card for the latest incarnation of Stampede Wrestling and wrestles for CSI where they bring in ex WWE guys.

Didnt they grass someone up in real life and left the business for a period? I remember something was fishy about their exit from ECW. Dont know if thats why they left ECW, but definitely something drug-related where they were recieving threats on their life happened around this period.

 

I'm pretty sure they got done for selling steroids which is why ECW stopped using them and I *think* caused WCW to pull an offer for them.

 

Dunno about them grassing anybody up but given that they didn't go to jail, it's more than likely.

I'm sure I heard Doug Basham retired to become either a cop or a fireman a couple of years ago.

I guess this would be the right place to ask this. I'm thinking of buying a TNA made T Shirt from A Merch (The Black and white Hulkamania one), and I was wondering what the materials are like. All the WWE one's I've bought in the last couple of years have been really uncomfortable hard cotton, so I wanted to know if TNA's shirts are more comfortable? Also, do they have any big giant TNA logos anywhere noticeable? Thanks.
