I've Just read Hulk Hogan - My Life Outside The Ring. Hogan claims that he suffered lasting injuries when The Undertaker tombstone'd him on the chair at Survivors 91 and spent a few days in hospital. That match can be found on Youtube in about 30 seconds for the world to see that he missed the chair by about 8 inches. How does he expect to get away with this stuff?

Hogan in "talking out of his arse" shocker. At least he got the year right, that's pretty good going for Hogan.

How much did you pay for that slab of printed lies? Just out of curiosity, not having a go or anything. If I can find it for about 30p I'll give it a whirl myself

There's far more to that Undertaker/Hogan story than just that. Hogan saying a young wrestler had "paralized him" on his finish was an attempt to cut the young, 6'10" and undefeated Undertaker's legs off. Undertaker was apparently rocked by it, thinking he'd almost broke the neck of "the man" at that time. It was Flair who said "he's working you." Its strange how that story is never talked about much. Out of all the things Hogan did over the years, this was a pretty big one in the "shit" column. If this was about 18 months earlier and McMahon and Hogan werent in the process of a PR bumming, McMahon could have easily moved Taker down the ranks and made him another Warlord. Its obvious looking at the video Undertaker couldnt have protected him more on the move if he tried. It looked like he was going for a running powerslam he was so far up.

 

I dont remember if Millard put it in his big book of Hogan lies or not, either. May have done.

I don't know how many of you check the events page (other than those replying on there), but is anyone checking out the ICW show in Newcastle in Friday?

I know 3 of us (Dicky, John) are going for a couple of Pints, probs in the forth or tillys beforehand if anyone fancies it.

I'm planning on going with a couple of mates, I think we'll be in The Bodega before.

Speaking of Hogan, I'm listening to him on the Flair podcast and Flair mentions that Harley Race is really sick in hospital at the minute. Sounded like he was in a real bad way from how Flair was talking about him. That's all 2015 needs. Dusty, Piper, Verne and Harley in the same year.

Stolen from Football365 mailbox. Found it amusing.

 

Premier League clubs as wrestlers.

Man U – John Cena, everyone hates him and wants him to lose but he wont go away

Man City – Roman Reigns, the new kid on the block ready to get the push to the big time, but still hasn’t won the big one (Champions League).

Liverpool – Ric Flair, best in the world in the 80’s, still hanging on to those glory days despite being way, way past his prime. Cant compete with the current stars.

Arsenal – Daniel Bryan, always has the best matches but never taken seriously as a threat.

Chelsea – Hulk Hogan, big name in the business, but his reputation is in tatters.

Newcastle – Vince McMahon, innovative and super popular in the 90’s, went down hill fast and is bereft of ideas on how to turn business around.

Stoke – Dixie Carter, signs talent that were previously at good franchises based on their name only. Ultimately going nowhere.

WBA – Greg Valentine, a reliable hand in the middle of the card. Unimpressive but rarely lets you down.

Norwich – Stephanie McMahon, female owner, makes a t*t of herself when getting time with a live microphone.

Sunderland – Iron Mike Sharp, jobber to the stars, rarely, if ever picks up a win. Bottom of the card for life.

Swansea – The Iron Sheik, evil foreign invader picks up the occasional bit of silverware.

Spurs – Million Dollar Man, spends money willy nilly and never really goes further up the card.

Everton- Dolph Ziggler. 100% work rate, reliable but with nothing to show for it.

Newcastle are Eric Bischoff. Were on top for a while during the period of 96 and 97 before ultimately fucking it up royally. And even when they were good, it was all out attack and sod all to protect them on the counter. I suppose that makes Kenny Daglish Vince Russo. Once the Radicalz left (Ginola, Ferdinand and Beardsley) he brought in The Natural Born Thrillaz (Paul Daglish, Jon Dahl Tomasson and Ian Rush) as replacements.

 

Alan Shearer is Sting. Stayed around forever and eventually saw the company relegated. Peter Beardsley is DDP. Because they both facially resemble a pork scratching.

Can't hear mention of Peter Beardsley's appearance, or Peter Beardsley full stop, without thinking of his Phoenix from the Flames.

According to Frank Skinner, the start of that skit was inspired by what happened in real life. They had the Quasimodo costume ready for him to dress up in, and when he arrived on the set the first thing Beardo said when he seen his outfit was "and you can fuck off with that for a start."

Oh god, were gonna veer right off topic here aren't we, and I have plenty to do tonight and now I'm just going to watch old Phoenix from the flames.

 

Best FF story is them doing a photo shoot with, I think, Radio Times with the real World Cup, just before 98. Snapper pops out of room, Skinner whips out his cock, wipes it on the top so whoever picks it up and kisses it, kisses that. Enjoy that Deschamps!!!
