Let me find the quote Bret Hart had been one of first friends to get a call from Kitty [I cut some text here].After Roddy's trip through BC and Alberta, Bret had a biopsy that later confirmed he had prostate cancer. He'd learned the result a week before Roddy's death, but hadn't told him about it. "There's only one person I can talk to," he'd thought, "and that's Roddy. Then I remember thinking, 'I don't want to burn him out. I feel kinda lousy about it myself.' I wasn't quite ready to to talk to him yet. So I put it off. When we spoke with him, the regret was clear. "The only guy I felt comfortable talking to. I say that will all honesty....It was Roddy. I couldn't believe it when I got the news. He was always my...when you get a real problem you call Roddy. I was shining the batlight that day, and he wasn't there anymore to take it." 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Should have switched to the black trunks and kickpads though. Go full bore and dye hair blonde too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AquariumDrinker Posted August 8, 2017 Share Posted August 8, 2017 I was really hoping Miz would refer to Kurt Angle's illegitimate son as "Jason Snow." (Edit. If this isn't over the line for referring to current programming.) 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Natural Posted August 8, 2017 Share Posted August 8, 2017 Horrible news about Yoshihiro Takayama. One of my introductions to NOAH was Kobashi vs. Takayama in April 2004. Takayama had the famous fight with Don Frye in PRIDE, June 2002. Thoughts with him and his loved ones. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BurningBeard Posted August 8, 2017 Share Posted August 8, 2017 My 13 y/o niece came to stay with me last week, and while I had time off work I started watching the Monday Night Wars documentary on the Network. During the Rock episode, my niece said "I still find it weird he used to be a wrestler" to which I replied "I still find it weird he's one of the biggest box office stars in the world!" Perspective is a funny old thing innit. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hammerva Posted August 8, 2017 Share Posted August 8, 2017 Disco Inferno trying to make sure that even fewer women go to wrestling shows with this creepy tweet. I assume this is based on what happened at the Scenic City Invitational when a dumbass thought it would be a great idea to tweet a video of Amber Young's ass and the shit storm of the people who liked it.

Dewar Posted August 8, 2017 Share Posted August 8, 2017 Disco is an idiot. Owens saving Patterson and Zayn would only work that good in Quebec. With WWE's dislike of running television in Canada, it may never happen. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NikoBaltimore Posted August 8, 2017 Share Posted August 8, 2017 Disco Inferno is proof of why we can't have nice things when it comes to women's wrestling. Fucking numbskull, it's a shame he's the village idiot on a podcast when he should just piss off and find something else to do with his life. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
