ELLIS Posted August 7, 2011 Share Posted August 7, 2011 I think you are correct, although i'm sure he did the same for later shows that were ultimately Scott Conway shows. Â Â That's right, Eli ran the venue for years, bringing in 'Paid shows' by various promotors. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Richie Freebird Posted August 7, 2011 Share Posted August 7, 2011 Whose idea was it to have wrestlers fighting in a cage and hitting each other with a chain in the name of a children's charity? Â If you can think of a more charitable act than belting a fellow man across the head with a chain I Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paid Members DJ Kris Posted August 8, 2011 Paid Members Share Posted August 8, 2011 I think you may be confusing reality with what has gone on in in the likes of Moj's head on here in the past. As far as I am aware Eli is still regularly all over the local press in the West Country doing charity work, which im sure wouldnt be happening if anything dodgy had previously been exposed. I wouldn't say it was just Moj's head, it's basically the reputation he's had for years. I agree with you though, he certainly doesn't appear to have been exposed as any such thing and seems to be continuing with his charity work quite nicely. However, back when I was an 18 year old referee someone did think it would be funny to give him my address and phone number. I'm not really sure why he rang me, although my Dad thought he seemed really nice, but for fucking ages we had the backdoor key hanging on a keyring containing a photo of Mad Eli in his union jack boxershorts that he had decided to send me for some reason Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
