  1. Works on my tablet on same network so it's clearly something to do with the laptop. But I've tried everything. I saw something on reddit which suggested this is something that happens to people in Europe every so often then it just starts working again eventually. I hope that isn't the case becauase it's hard to justify paying for a service which cuts off intermittently.

    Don Bass (aka Outlaw Ron Bass) has died due to cancer

    He was 69 or 70 (depending on the source)

    Don Bass isn't the same person as Ron Bass. They were brothers, legit or not I don't know. But it is Don Bass that has passed away.

    EDIT: Wikipedia has them has Ron and Don Heard so I imagine legit brothers.

    Small world - I just saw a tweet that they've booked Rey Jr. for a show in freaking Yakima, WA.  YAKIMA.  There is NOTHING in Yakima, let alone lucha fans.  The only notable wrestling thing that ever happened there was Brian Pillman cutting a promo in '97 saying he understood why Kurt Cobain blew his head off.

    (Although the main with Austin/Undertaker vs. Owen/Davey Boy was pretty good.)

    I remember Nitro being there the day after Spring Stampded '99 and the Luchadores had a great match and were over like Rover. Just looked it up and the city has a 41.3% Latino population.

    I was always under the impression film or video didn't exist of it. Maybe someone finally found film of it since I don't think there would be any video. It has it listed at 1983. Wasnt the match in 78?.

    October 23rd 1983.

    The only known footage of the match is owned by noted wrestling historian, Barry Ham.

    So presumably WWE bought the footage from him.

  5. LT was certainly blown up at the end of the match, Salt 'n Pepa were pretty much holding him upright and he could barely talk.

    That was certainly the weirdest WrestleMania main event. I remember being confused when Diesel vs Shawn came on halfway through and literally having no idea what the final match would be. I had literally never heard of Taylor before he appeared on WWE TV, and from what I remember, that match wasn't promoted as the main match in the build up to the show.

  6. Just noticed his T-shirt saying that on prowrestlingtees. Chesterfield is my hometown so it jumped out at me. Bram actually went to the same school as me.

     

    To take a guess where he's got the "plague" thing from: There's a village near here called Eyam that was pretty much wiped out by the black death, spread to there by a package of cloth being sent to a local tailor from London. They quarantined the village successfully so it didn't spread but most of its population was wiped out.
