BurningBeard Posted April 2, 2020 Share Posted April 2, 2020 Now this is the type of conspiracy theory I can get behind: He then went on to steal the show at 7... and I guess you could argue 8 (but to me Bret v Piper has that honour) 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AxB Posted April 2, 2020 Share Posted April 2, 2020 Allegedly Ethan Page's Body Guy Extravaganza is going to be on YouTube on Friday. Although he originally made the claim yesterday so it might be some sort of elaborate rib. Or it's going to be Steiner and Cage having a posedown in front of their webcams.

colonial Posted April 2, 2020 Share Posted April 2, 2020 CMLL has a luchadora named "La Metalica" who has some feline imagery on her mask and ringwear -- she used to be "Felina Metalica" before joining CMLL. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Doesn't help that if you bought a ticket it had the wrong start time and missed the beginning of the show. Which you should be thankful for but you wouldn't know that at the time.

Meaning there's an Original Pink Panther and Pink Panther II. Also, Rajah Lion (if the second word is meant as the English Lion and not an Indiana word with the same orthography). But did Gabriel ever wrestle as The Son of the Pink Panther? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The ticket time snafu was the Bunkhouse Stampede the next year. So basically, when it rains it pours. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spontaneous Posted April 2, 2020 Share Posted April 2, 2020 Yeah, wow, yikes. Starrcade 87 also features classic Dusty, as I watched that right before Bunkhouse Stampede but somewhat enjoyed Garvin-Flair. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Casey Posted April 2, 2020 Share Posted April 2, 2020 Has anyone seen Two Falls to a Finish? It's a British documentary about the rise/fall of World Of Sport and what that did to the wrestling scene in England in the subsequent years after it was cancelled. It kind of glosses over WoS and jumps into the 90s to "now" period pretty fast, focusing way too much time on stuff like those WWF tribute shows and FWA, other failed indies, etc. I have to laugh at Big Daddy being nowhere as big as Haystacks, though.

Nice Guy Eddie Posted April 3, 2020 Share Posted April 3, 2020 22 hours ago, West Newbury Bad Boy said: He's completely unremarkable in the ring. They'd have coached some of his good instincts out of him. He has personality, but they'd have put it into a certain box. I've said it before, but if he were in WWE he'd be either Miz or EC3. And all the people who love his work now probably feel very differently about him. I was going to add in that I pictured MJF ending up as EC3, but that's mostly due to the character similarities between he and pre-main roster EC3. I think HHH would have loved MJF and hid him in nxt for a long while. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Casey Posted April 3, 2020 Share Posted April 3, 2020 Wrestling Journalist Twitter is lit right now, with the highlight being Ryan Satin defending a TV show he did with Sheriff Joe Arpaio after a fan points it out, in response to Satin saying Bryan Alvarez and Dave Meltzer aren't honest about who they're working for. Of course Bix got involved too. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
