Didn't Ryan Shamrock do a stint in AAA? I could've sworn that happened around 07

D-Lo also had that random 4 or 5 match return in mid 2008, loved all the random past star returns around 05-09 ish like Tatanka, Animal, Jannetty, etc.

Re Jarrett: I guess a hair-vs-hair match qualifies as making a big deal about it. 

He wanted to have a hair vs hair match and lose, because at the time his wife was undergoing chemotherapy.

The other thing about Ryan Shamrock, is that Ken Shamrock's eldest Son is actually called Ryan.

And to add another layer, apparently Vince M or Vince R wanted Ken and Ryan to be an incestuous couple but Ken but the kibosh on it.

At what big AWA show did Diamond and Tanaka have their big match after Badd Company broke up?? I remember them both coming out to "Bad Company" and for the life of me I can't remember which show it was on.

Vince and that god damn incest angle. He'll be on his deathbed and his last words will be pitching that angle one more time to Stephanie and Shane.

Do any wrestling promotions still run shows in the main room(with balcony) at the Elks Lodge in Queens?

I don’t think so, as it’s a church now.

Nothing listen on Cagematch. There are only 2 singles matches for Tanaka in the AWA after they lose the belts; one to Diamond and one to Saito. But there’s a 3 month gap between those matches and the Orient Express showing up in WWF.

Really?? Could've sworn they had a match at a big AWA show...maybe in Chicago? Or maybe I'm misremembering? Lol

[odessasteps]

Like I said, there’s a big gap there in their results. could be it’s just not listed.

Holy fucking shit.  That is the new carniest thing I've ever heard of.  Like imagine his thought process:

Thought 1: She's undergoing chemo.  I should shave my head in solidarity.

Thought 2: How can I make a buck off this?

Do you think he's forgotten that he actually did that angle, with Paul Burchill & Katie Lea?

I did. Until you brought it up. Bastard.

What the hell was Vince thinking with the fake Bill Clinton at Survivor Series ‘95? 

It’s not funny at all. And every segment feels endless.

That seems like a great premise for a gameshow sketch on the Edge & Christian show.

Didn't they have the Clinton impersonator (or maybe a different one) at Mania that year as well?

I love that first story.  Steph shoots down Vince's idea where he fucks and impregnates her and his reaction is, "okay, well what if it was Shane, then?"

[AxB]

So do all wealthy East Coast types have a 'My Daughter' fetish, or is it just Vince and Trump?
