Curt McGirt Posted June 2, 2018 Share Posted June 2, 2018 Don't recall that, it was more a being a dick to the talent thing. But if that was indeed his gimmick then fuck him even harder. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(Apologies to longtime N.Y. area indie fans for bringing back some real bad memories with that name) As for Rebel: I knew a guy who worked low level Indies who was at a CZW show backstage, and Rebel casually walked up to him and proceeded to tell him a holocaust joke. Yeah, I think that says it all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nice Guy Eddie Posted June 2, 2018 Share Posted June 2, 2018 It's ashame Rebel had to take a life with him. Just offing himself would have been a humanitarian act. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hammerva Posted June 2, 2018 Share Posted June 2, 2018 That is fair that scummy things isn't just an indie wrestling thing. although I would like to think that in 2018 if the Chris Benoit thing happened as we believe happened the WWE would not do a 10 bell salute to them. But yeah the Moolah and Snuka thing doesn't help their argument Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Curt McGirt Posted June 13, 2018 Share Posted June 13, 2018 I've never seen an Arkangel de la Muerte match before so I picked this one. Either 1. it's clipped to shit, or 2. Azteca really wanted to get rid of that mask and go back to the bar because this is as long as a Lightning match. Anybody have anything better?

RIPPA Posted June 28, 2018 Share Posted June 28, 2018 Per the newest WON Quote John Greene, who wrestled in WCW as enhancement talent Johnny Attitude in the 90s, passed away on 6/12. He was 53. Greene may be better known as Johnny G, who was the real life owner and promoter of Micro Championship Wrestling, a troupe of little wrestlers that would run small night club shows around the country. Greene was born in the Bronx, NY but ended up in Florida where he owned a gym and competed in bodybuilding contests. Since so many wrestlers lived in the area, he got to know them and they broke him into wrestling. In 2011, Tru TV did a reality show based on the idea that Johnny G was promoting midget wrestling but losing money. His good buddy Hulk Hogan (who was obviously the key to the show making television) stepped in to give him business advice and bought into the promotion and they ran shows called Hulk Hogan’s Micro Championship Wrestling, with Johnny G running the shows.
