Paid Members Linus Posted October 31, 2016 Paid Members Share Posted October 31, 2016 Mark Haskins has announced that he's having to stop wrestling, at least for a while, and has cancelled all his bookings & vacated all his titles. Everything was going great for him, with a good show at BOLA and interest from ROH, and it's sad that it's come at this time. He's got issues with his neck that are affecting feeling in his hands, which is a familiar wrestling injury, and people HAVE recovered before so fingers crossed.

Alex Wright Mark Posted October 31, 2016 Share Posted October 31, 2016 Sucks to hear that. Haskins is one of my favourite British wrestlers at the moment, and one of my picks for British Wrestler of the Year. Here's hoping for a speedy recovery.

BrodyGraham Posted October 31, 2016 Share Posted October 31, 2016 It sucks that this has happened, especially now. You get the impression that he was basically a made man after BOLA. Hopefully he recovers and picks up where he left off. Fingers Crossed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted October 31, 2016 Share Posted October 31, 2016 I don't get him wrestling then giving up title last night, strange one as Progess have always talked of not putting wrestlers at risk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SuperBacon Posted October 31, 2016 Share Posted October 31, 2016 I'll start this by saying that I think Haskins is an excellent wrestler, a thoroughly nice chap who I've always seen have time for fans and chatting, and I'm sure he does have something wrong, but that whole thing, leaving the belt, then the promo backstage, especially that, seemed so phoney and contrived. It even sounded scripted so... Â I dunno maybe I'm just being cynical. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members Benno Posted October 31, 2016 Paid Members Share Posted October 31, 2016 I don't get him wrestling then giving up title last night, strange one as Progess have always talked of not putting wrestlers at riskThey're playing it as if they didn't know before the match, but I don't buy it. He has vacated belts elsewhere today, so while I don't think it's a work, there's definitely an element of turning it into one with the way they all reacted after he stormed off and definitely in his promo. Â Â I wasn't into him being Progress champ but it's a real shame for him as others have said, he was picking up lots of momentum this year and was really getting about.

Paid Members IANdrewDiceClay Posted October 31, 2016 Paid Members Share Posted October 31, 2016 Anyone remember when TNA built up a mystery X Division opponent for Doug Williams and debuted Mark Haskins? That had to be some kind of sabotage. No way anyone who isnt thick as fuck could think that was the best way to debut someone. His TNA career never got off the ground after that.

firstnameunknown Posted October 31, 2016 Share Posted October 31, 2016 He wrestled for Southside in Stevenage the night before too. I can only think he decided he would do this one last weekend before taking a sabbatical. He certainly went full pelt in both outings and, more strangely, won both matches. Fingers crossed for a full recovery, certainly is bad timing for the guy... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
the_mole Posted October 31, 2016 Share Posted October 31, 2016 I think he fucked up a spot with Austin Aries and Double A looked pissed seemed he put his shots in a bit harder, that was when he was doing a John Morrison routine and had neither the face or body to pull it off. Â I'm sure he's improved massively since then as that was a few years back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members Nick Soapdish Posted October 31, 2016 Paid Members Share Posted October 31, 2016 Haskins had no real charisma in TNA. A botchamania worthy performance at TNA's Wembley recordings that year pretty much called time on his push Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DavidB6937 Posted November 1, 2016 Share Posted November 1, 2016 I'd always heard great things about him and ended up really disappointed by his TNA stuff. Â Same with Noam Dar in CWC actually. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
