nate Posted March 28, 2014 Share Posted March 28, 2014 Being a white guy named Blackman is unfortunate for a variety of reasons. Trying to pitch a show where you follow your last name up with "bounties" is one of them. N.E.L. (Never Enough Likes) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sky Blue Sam Posted March 29, 2014 Share Posted March 29, 2014 How active is Kenny Dykstra nowadays? He must still be in his twenties, seems like the kind of guy who could pop up in Jeff Jarrett's new promotion if he's still wrestling. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

John Austin Posted March 29, 2014 Share Posted March 29, 2014 Whatever became of Jeff Katz's WRP? Can't find anything online besides the stuff that has been up forever. Last I heard, he had planned on giving refunds who gave to the Kickstarter campaign, and there was talk of releasing it on DVD at some point.

Ultimo Necro Posted March 29, 2014 Share Posted March 29, 2014 I was going to ask about Armando Estrada and Wiki-d him, turns out he was released in 2008. What blew my mind is that he had an appearance in 2011 as Tyson Kidd's manager that I have literally no memory of, and he then remained under contract until 2012? That's bonkers!! They must just forget they are paying dudes until the accounts dept goes through the books. Acts Dept: "Hi Vince, we have all these salaries we are paying, perhaps you could clarify who these people are? JTG? Evan Bourne? Tyson Kidd? Yoshi Tatsu" VINCE: "NOPE, DON'T KNOW WHO THEY ARE, HEY, IS JIMMY YANG HERE, I HAVE A GREAT IDEA FOR HIM" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sky Blue Sam Posted March 29, 2014 Share Posted March 29, 2014 There was a brief, Superstars only, storyline where Tyson Kidd was auditioning managers. I seem to recall he also had Michael Hayes, Matt Striker and Vicki Guerrero accompany him too. I'm pretty sure it went nowhere though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

newtalkingwall Posted March 29, 2014 Share Posted March 29, 2014 Meltzer recently said that WWE doesn't release guys any more, they just wait for their contracts to run out. It seems that this has been their policy for a few years now, although that doesn't explain why they would sign Estrada beyond one appearance. This also leads to the conclusion that JTG signed a 10-year contract. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He must still be in his twenties, seems like the kind of guy who could pop up in Jeff Jarrett's new promotion if he's still wrestling. Not sure if he's wrestling currently, but he's now a student at Nichols College in Massachusetts, where he's majoring in sports management and is a defensive lineman on the football team ... http://nicholsathletics.com/roster.aspx?rp_id=3345&path=football He's also a published author, releasing an anti-bullying book for children last year ... http://www.amazon.com/Billys-Bully-Kenneth-L-Doane/dp/1620861348 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JRGoldman Posted March 30, 2014 Share Posted March 30, 2014 Someone told me that Al Madril will deny that he was ever a wrestler. This seems insane, but I guess not out of the realm of possibility. Anyone have any more knowledge of this? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anyone have any more knowledge of this? I just checked with some folks that ought to know and apparently he is a nasty, bitter old man (not unlike the character he played in his last run in Portland). And yes, he refuses to talk about his wrestling past. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HumanChessgame Posted April 20, 2014 Author Share Posted April 20, 2014 Whatever happened to Attitude Era staple Jim Dotson? Was he a legit security guy or just some developmental guy that never fit in anywhere else? I seem to recall him getting in a very brief angle with someone but never having a match. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
colonial Posted April 20, 2014 Share Posted April 20, 2014 I believe Jim Dotson was a legit security guy that the WWE wanted to train and wrestle. IIRC, he had a brief "feud" with Steve Blackman that went nowhere because, in part, Dotson had no interest in becoming an in-ring competitor. Not much info on him post-WWE, but if various other forums are to be believed, Dotson left the WWE in 2001 due to migraine headaches and vision issues and now lives in TN.

Thomas Bugg Posted April 24, 2014 Share Posted April 24, 2014 What about Chad Collyer? I always thought of him as a talented blue-collar guy that never really fit in in Ring Of Honor. Loved his theme music though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

T.Rex-n-effeckx Posted April 24, 2014 Share Posted April 24, 2014 EZ Money? I remember watching him as Jason Jett in WCW and thought he was gonna be the next big thing. I know there was a story about him alienating a bunch of folks at the Dave Taylor training school, when he was supposedly big timing the trainers.
