  1. One of the recent WWE documentaries had this map pop up and I thought to track it down today-

    I wonder if there's any chance WWE will ever put together a Memphis wrestling documentary.  Doesn't Lawler have a lot of their tape library?  If not a feature, it would be cool to see a doc with mini chapters each highlighting various prominent territories that were popular over the years.  Getting rights to such a thing would probably be a mess though. 

    Did the Amarillo territory run south Texas? And what about Blanchards SWCW? Was that only a short term territory?

  2. It was specifically because of a match at Clash 5 in February 1989 where the Road Warriors and Tenyru were scheduled to defend the 6 man titles against Sting, JYD and Michael Hayes, but the Varsity club locked the challengers in their lockeroom and took their place in the match. Baba thought he had no way to defend something like that to his fans so he pulled out of the NWA and any affiliation with WCW, which led to AJPW's near decade of isolationism, and also to the WCW/NJPW deal which lasted until WCW folded.

  3. Highly unlikely. Mark Callous's last WCW match was September 7th 1990 and Hogan was back wrestling in WWF in August, so unless they went back and did pickups later in the year and inserted his scene then he wouldn't have been under WWF contract. Not that it would really have made any sense to have a highly protected dark character like that have a squeaky voice in a comedy movie.

  4. I've often heard people say that Savage shouldn't have won the title from Flair at WrestleMania 8, and the chase for the title should  have continued until SummerSlam. But what happens if Savage wins the title at SummerSlam? I would presume that Bret never wins the title in October, Yokozuna beats Savage for the title, then you get the Luger push which isn't derailed by the fans preferring Bret since Bret never had his main event run prior to this. So what happens after that? Luger wins the title and feuds with, who? Does Diesel still end up with the belt at the end of '94?

  5. From today's update, a great typo

     

    --The Bellas are hosting a poof party on 8/31 at the Foxwood Resorts Casino in Connecticut.

     

    Dave possessed by a homophobic British comedian from the 1980s. Duncan Norvelle will probably be guest of honour at the party.
