Does anybody know the venue of the first couple of ROH shows? Its like a school gym but it definately had a vibe about it.Cheers brahs.

The Murphy Rec Centre more or less is a school gym. It's not actually on the campus of a school, but there is a "football" field outside of it, and I think high school teams do team sports in there as well (basketball, for example). That part of south Philadelphia is just street upon street of housing, with no massive space for a school, so I would imagine the Rec Centre kinda acts as facility for quite a lot of kids. I went to the final RoH show held there (Glory By Honor 2 in 2003), and was entertained by a little league Gridiron game beforehand. It was some effort from those padded-up youngsters, because it was 30 degrees outside that day (and about a THOUSAND degrees inside the hall during the event!)...

Is there anyway of getting the theme songs from TNAwrestling.com?

As soon as the audio file completes buffering, the file will be stored in your temporary internet folder. Just copy them into another folder and there you have it. Mind you I have Windows 98, so I don't know if XP will allow you to access them.Though looking at my message history, I tried to give you simple instructions to do it before, and you couldn't do it. I think you would need to find another method.Edit: I'm not sure if this response is breaking the rules. Please let me know if it is and I will delete it. Edited by bwo

It was in 1988. It was because the guy wanted to make ITV more with the times, and felt wrestling looked really old and out of date and made the network look bad for having it on. It didn't represent the new image or something along those lines.

I have tried to find my answer on Obsessed With Wrestling but I can't. My question is thus.Is the Konnan wrestling on the Starrcade 90 PPV, the Konnan of WCW/TNA fame? Is he also the Konnan that Bret Hart on his DVD says showed him how to put the Sharpshooter on?

I have a few questions1. What happened to the Basham Brothers, Rene Dupree, Muhammad Hassan and Hardcore Holly?2. Why was Maven fired?3. What are Mordecai, Kenzo Suzuki and Luther Reigns up to today?

1. Rene Dupree is still in OVW and was feuding with "The Miz", Doug and Danny Basham have ust reunited as a Tag Team, Hardcore Holly is seriously ill and Muhammad Hassan left the WWE on good terms to pursue an acting career even though it was rumoured he was trying to get fired so he could proceed with a wrongful termination Lawsuit2. Maven was released possibly to cut down on the roster he has been wrestling on TNA house shows3. Mordecai was last seen wrestling In UWC under the name Mordekai and were rumours of him re-signing a month ago, Kenzo Suzuki has been wrestling in Mexico and Luther Reigns was spotted working as a bodyguard at a porn convention in January

Since the new board emerged I can't seem to quote properly with boxes etc. Can anyone tell me the best way to do it?

Re: World of Sport - I'm being really picky, but that's not quite right. World of Sport as a programme (Dickie Davies and all) ended in 1985, with wrestling continuing as a seperate entity until 1988...I'd be very surprised if Konnan taught Bret the sharpshooter, because I can't think of any occasion their paths would have crossed before he was using it. Bret used it first in around spring 91. Konan didn't start in the WWF until Autumn 92 (his very short spell as Max Moon, before Paul Diamond took over). Maybe Bret was a big trader of CMLL or something...?
