Paid Members LaGoosh Posted June 19, 2016 Paid Members Share Posted June 19, 2016 Probably all the coke and pills. I fucking love Nick Gage. Great worker. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members Tommy! Posted June 19, 2016 Paid Members Share Posted June 19, 2016 Was Nick Gage the one who tried to rob a bank, or was that some other czw name? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ladiesman345 Posted June 19, 2016 Share Posted June 19, 2016 Yeah, that's him. Released on parole last year then sent back a few months later for failing a drug test. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
digitalversicolor Posted June 19, 2016 Share Posted June 19, 2016 So Gage is back in prison again? I remember reading he was due out last year and he turned up to a handful of CZW events but he didn't seem back in full time and I haven't heard his name since those events so if he's gone back inside that would explain it, haha  $250 for that TOD2 roof bump is ridiculous though, that's still way lower than I thought these guys would get paid but I suppose your stuck in a niche with this type of stuff, never gonna be big bucks. Makes you wonder why they do it, suppose if you end up like Ambrose it was worth it, or even Drake Younger who's now a ref in NXT (what's the reasoning behind that btw, I read somewhere that he was too messed up from his deathmatch stuff that they wouldn't let him wrestle?)

Paid Members quote the raven Posted June 19, 2016 Paid Members Share Posted June 19, 2016 Ambrose got to WWE in spite of his DM history not because of it. Â Im still shocked they took him after some of the mad shit he did. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh I know that, he could talk and wrestle and in no way did he really need to do any of the deathmatch stuff, at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members Accident Prone Posted June 19, 2016 Paid Members Share Posted June 19, 2016 From what i recall, Drake did a WWE try out after getting into fucking tremendous shape, dropping his vices and stopping his deathmatch stuff. Apparently his postive mental attitude impressed the officials so much that he was offered a reffing gig after falling short of getting a developmental deal. Couldn't have happened to a nicer guy either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members Egg Shen Posted June 20, 2016 Paid Members Share Posted June 20, 2016 $250 for what Nick Mondo put himself through at that TOD is just insane. That was the same night he took the Weedwhacker to the gut as well. Absolute lunacy. Â I'd like to see what other kinds of states the deathmatch staple guys get upto post-career. Lobo for one doesn't seem to be about anymore. Â Anyone else know what some of the others are upto? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Four Horsemen Posted June 20, 2016 Share Posted June 20, 2016 $250 is still probably a lot more than what IWA - Mid South used to pay talent for their King Of The Death Match tourny. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Merzbow Posted June 20, 2016 Share Posted June 20, 2016 Didn't Ian Rotten offer a recovering JC Bailey drugs to perform at one of those? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The King Of Swing Posted June 20, 2016 Share Posted June 20, 2016 Ambrose got to WWE in spite of his DM history not because of it. Â Im still shocked they took him after some of the mad shit he did. I'm almost convinced that Ambrose was hired off the back of his promo work and nothing else. Â Probably the most unlikely WWE success story outside of Daniel Bryan.

Paid Members Egg Shen Posted June 20, 2016 Paid Members Share Posted June 20, 2016 Didn't Ian Rotten offer a recovering JC Bailey drugs to perform at one of those? something along them lines. I remember that interview on some radio show where Bailey's dad rips Rotten a new one. Grim business. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paid Members quote the raven Posted June 22, 2016 Paid Members Share Posted June 22, 2016 Indeed Ian was accused of paying JC in drugs. He admitted to giving them to him but not in payment. The whole radio show was like a eps of springier with the host bringing in "moose" Mickie Knuckles who goes into details about how he was cheating with her while his wife was in the house.
