Satnam Singh will be playing the 7 ft. karate guy.

Konan Big would beat up 6 people while singing his way to the ring in Monterey.

Who the hell are the Elks? I saw that they are playing the Ti-Cats tonight.

Tomezo Tsunokake has passed away at 69 yo. I remember in the AJW programs the girls were rated by size, strength, speed, technique but he was rated by drinking, gambling, women, etc.. https://www.tokyo-sports.co.jp/articles/-/272976?fbclid=IwAR1Xm_kGoB3Nij-_ma7we9EmQCi8Uy9NDAswrUef0R-f6ts4CXYWcwG4skE

Bull knew enough to give up her bar business. Actually the last two times I went to her bar she wasn't there. She had a unique life. She disappeared, was in Florida and Hawaii as a golf club pro, and went back to Japan opened her bar and went back to the wrestling world as a OG and even talento. I can't imagine that she did coke in Japan. Drug laws are too severe. Madusa's book that I just read said that Bull failed a piss test for coke in WWF that was just for general partying in wrestling. I remember the reports at the time were that she had drugs found by customs. I thought(heard?) that it was roids. She has admitted to doing them for a cycle in the US and stopping when her voice deepened and a couple of whiskers sprouted. Bull had a recent facebook post of "this day x years ago" of a picture of me and her that I posted a few years ago that was actually from Itsuki Yamazaki's restaurant from the 90's. I had dinner with her at my table one time when I was helping out Wally Yamaguchi with some kind of fan trip from Japan to MSG. I met her there a few times when she was in WWF. I re-connected with her when she opened Nakano no Bullchan 20 years later. Once in a while Keiko Nakano will like one of my facebook posts and I give the biggest pop imaginable.

Don't skip it, watch on ff.

The genius of Hollywood Hogan was that Marvel didn't get a cut of the merch money like they did for Hulk.

I have a herniated disc in my back. It causes little to no back pain. My herniated disk pressures the nerve that goes down my left leg and it got to the point where I couldn't push up a stair with the leg. His limping around was most likely from the disc. Epidural injections help for months. We can have one more tournament with Takayasu teasing a win until the end. It would be nice to see him actually get one.

I always remember Shawn "Mikels" and the "Sleep Hold". In fact that is what I call both to this day.

It is blocked for me right now (USA).

Is there a full version of Momoe Nakanishi's debut against Nanae on 7/14/96? I just watched the clipped version on JGP '96 VHS that I bought from Toudoukan. They used limited moves, but were way faster and tighter than the usual rookie match.

Chris signed a program for me that Chuck signed for me when I was 12 years old. Chris thought that fact and the program were cool. Chris was a real fan of old time wrestling. He was so nice with fans like me too.

I hate these announcements by GCW. I just saw this and wanted to go to the NJ show. I checked and found that there are only standing room tickets left. I'm too old to stand for a show now. This is far from the first time that they announced someone after all of the good seats were sold.

One time at Kabuki's restaurant, I joked with him that he is yokozuna Akebono's grandfather by wrestling logic. I got a kick out of the Hustle, Hustle 30 minute TV show. I had trouble getting through full shows though. I could say the same thing about NOAH. I thought that the 30 minute show on NTV was the best wrestling going on. I had a hard time getting through the full shows from Budoukan on G+ after the real TV was cancelled.

I have totally forgotten about this. I only hope that I live long enough to forget the Reiwa version.

Are the odds 50% that there will be an eyeball story in each episode?

I went to a free Big Japan show in a park in February that was sponsored by the shopping street between the park and the train station. They had a tag, six man tag, intermission, and then a battle royal. BJW has a price list for buying a show that increases with the amount of wrestlers and matches. https://bjw.co.jp/event-price/

Battle Royals were originally pushed as the most dangerous match of the year because of the over the top rope bumps. At the time, throwing your opponent over the top rope in a regular match was an automatic disqualification.

Tsukushi barely grew, but Kurumi sure did.

I'm a crotchety old man, a little beered up from watching the US Open all day so I just want to bitch about wrestling. Wrestling tickets have gotten way too expensive. Hundreds of dollars including $300 at the ECW Arena. Unbelievable. After 50 years of watching wrestling, my brain can't remember one more name for another move. They are all jumping knee, suplex, piledriver to me. Local shows aren't in gymnasiums anymore. I like bleachers. Speaking of no more bleachers, down in front!

My DVR is showing that this Saturday's episode of MLW Fusion Alpha on Bein Sports is a new episode.

I have enjoyed the repackage of Master Wato and Great O-Khan from the time they returned. Both have that wrestling thing of the perfect amount of stupid. On the other hand, I wouldn't care if I ever saw SHO and YOH again.

Nailz was babyface to me as soon as he did it.

This might have been the saddest episode. The stuff with his mother didn't add up with Chris' grand father being Chuck Richards, the WWWF prelim guy. I remember seeing Chuck and some cute girl (Tammy) sitting at the top of the bleachers at some high school whey they were so young.

A weekly 30 minute show on GAORA.
