Wrestlers are trash "Allegedly"

It was all dropped, so I'm not sure she has much of anything to go with here. Kurt's entire life was a fucking disaster for a good 5 years stint there at least. Must have been horrible to be around.

On August 15, 2009, Pittsburgh-based NBC affiliate WPXI reported that Angle had been arrested. His girlfriend stated that she had filed a protection from abuse (PFA) order and that he was stalking her in the Robinson area. Angle was charged with "driving while operating privilege is suspended, prohibited acts-possession, harassment and prohibited acts". Hygetropin, a human growth hormone, was found in his car; Angle maintained that he had a prescription for the drug.[345] On September 15, a District Court judge dropped the harassment, suspended license, and drug charges against Angle. On November 9, 2009, the PFA charges were dropped after he and former girlfriend Trenesha Biggers reached an agreement to avoid contact with each other.[346]

I'd heard that Ophidian left Chikara in January.  Quack stating that one of his trainers who was abusive left months ago.  I am praying it wasn't Ophidian he was talking about. I know Ophidian had a hand at the training school. Not sure who else he could have been talking about. 

There was a post about a few days back about how there was a student in one of the 101 intro courses at the Wrestlefactory who said they had previous neck injuries and Travis Huckabee who was running the class made this student do high neck bridges and was putting all of his weight on this students body while they did so. But Huckabee was still with the company. 

Ophidian last wrestled for Chikara back in late Feb, but he'd been all over their weekly show on IWTV and the main story arc of the last year of Chikara was the Crucible stable being made up on students that basically haze and beat up newcomers under Ophidian's command.

No one tell JR they want to take John Wayne's name off the Orange County airport. 

Anything specific or just because he's the poster child for toxic masculinity and a hero to really shitty dudes over 60 for that very reason?

It depends on the story you read but the specific incident appears to be that someone reposted a Playboy interview from 1971 where in it Wayne says "I believe in white supremacy"

AH.  Thanks.  I remember reading that quote some time ago.  Hopefully they do change it.  Its a nice airport...I flew in and out of it about a week before the whole world shut down back in March.

I know, I miss the Soviet Union too.

God, now I have to watch Casino Royale on demand and cue up Judi Dench's brilliant monologue on idiots in Parliament and lamenting the end of the Cold War.

Phew, there's a lot more in that article that isn't on Wikipedia. He really was his character in The Searchers.

Don't forget there's that great line about him and Elvis in "Fight the Power" too. If PE is calling you out by name...

Thought of that too! And how great was Chuck D coming out later and apologizing to Elvis' family after finding out he wasn't a racist? Guessing that's not gonna happen on this one!!

Lord help me, I blame OCD for every time I read any statement beginning with "I believe in ...", I automatically go into a "You Sexy Thing" earworm.

You all know about my hatred of WWE, to the point where I almost vomited when rumors about Chikara selling out and going in the Network were floating.

After all of this, and reading that article, I can’t be bothered to be mad about The Enemy’s restarted plans for global expansion.

Maybe this all took me out of wrestling after all.

So, does anyone here have any merch of any of the wrestlers that stories have come out about? I've got the Villain Club gold shirt, Bullet Club: Villain Enterprises, and the Bullet Club umbrella. Not to mention a plague doctor's mask. I was looking at my Marty shirts today, and while I don't see myself wearing them anytime soon, I don't think I'm going to get rid of them either.

I haven't been around much lately and haven't read this entire thread, but was there something that came out about Darby Allin? Yes, I'm asking because I also have a Darby shirt.
