TheSurgeon Posted June 21, 2020 Share Posted June 21, 2020 What with the promoter Martin Zaki, and head trainer Travis Banks doing all sorts of terrible stuff, it seems Fight Club Pro is in trouble. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The King Of Swing Posted June 21, 2020 Share Posted June 21, 2020 (edited) What a complete and utter prick. Edit. Osprey of course though I can't say I'm surprised. Edited June 21, 2020 by The King Of Swing Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LWOLeN Posted June 21, 2020 Share Posted June 21, 2020 - Unregulated - No pension - No health-care - No background checks - Often no wages - No drug testing - No Human Resources - No age limits apparently - No laws This weekend exposed pro wrestling's secret side, what happens outside the ring to young wrestlers. A secret underworld of deception, exploitation and greed disguised and downplayed as ‘paying your dues’. Built on a pyramid of secrets that includes abusive, mental control of its young performers and a long history of illegal business practices and corruption. These brave woman had no choice but expose pro wrestling's less visible but biggest con outside the ring; its hidden manipulation of young wrestlers with broken promises and broken bones and a backstage power of the pencil that writes scripts for wrestler stardom or extinction. This ‘business’ needs to be cleaned up and become safe for everyone involved. Power to everyone who dared to speak out! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yakashi Posted June 21, 2020 Share Posted June 21, 2020 (edited) Osprey might come out of this fine because he’s good at moves and flips and today’s wrestling fans like moves and flips. Edited June 21, 2020 by Yakashi Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chances are he will. Mostly because the other stuff will drown it out I think. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't want to live in a version of The Purge, but you despise all criminals? Maybe I'm being over dramatic. We've all done things we aren't proud of.....even if it was just using Napster back in the 90s......I'm sure you understood the point though.

It might have been another paper. Looking back I've no idea how it went to print and they never got pulled up on it. This is eerily similar except they knew her personally. Disgusting from everyone involved on an impressionable young person. I was thinking that there was no way that could be true.....but Google proves you right! My god! Charlotte Church was 15 years old when Britain’s best-read daily newspaper began a public countdown to the day on which she could be legally fucked. The singer, now 25, told the Levenson inquiry into press ethics and standards that the feature made her “feel horrible”, and described over a decade of bullying by the Murdoch media group and others.

kamicazze Posted June 21, 2020 Share Posted June 21, 2020 (edited) haha not as it seems. I was walking in as he walked out after shaving his chest , I did the old British awkward 'alright' and got that response. I'm used to the occasional punch in the face - combat sports. would have added to the story. Edited June 21, 2020 by kamicazze Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted June 21, 2020 Share Posted June 21, 2020 (edited) 1 hour ago, chokeout said: A company has come out and confirmed Will Ospreay blacklisted Pollyanna Had a look at the first IWL card and as I expected, a couple names from my former training school in the opener and it was almost definitely my former trainers Greg Burridge & Garry Vanderhorne pulling the strings here. as far as whether Ospreay will be alright coming out of this, him being primarily in New Japan rather than AEW or WWE might help him. I doubt much of this is reaching the Japanese fans outside of his own sloppy apology post, and I doubt New Japan will react when they did nothing about Elgin a couple of years ago, but Ospreay may at least find his adulation in the US and UK has dried up somewhat.
