GuerrillaMonsoon 3,291 Posted February 13 Share Posted February 13 (edited) Holy shit. Bruce Pobanz is still at it in 2020? And now he was formerly in a tag team with The Rock? Edited February 13 by GuerrillaMonsoon 1 Link to post Share on other sites
ReiseReise 663 Posted February 13 Share Posted February 13 The spelling mistake on the Godfather plus talk about posters here on the board makes me remember a time were some poster was telling everyone that Bret Hart was actually Brett Hart. The Pobanz stuff is just amazing. I only heard about some of his claims, but that André story with him beating André via shoot Bodyslam is hysterical. Link to post Share on other sites
Infinit 3,170 Posted February 13 Share Posted February 13 The thought of Probanz going to hospitals and giving sick children hangman's nooses always made me chuckle. HANG IN THERE! 3 Link to post Share on other sites

HumanChessgame 2,672 Posted February 13 Share Posted February 13 What's the deal with this Pobanz guy? I can't find a cagematch profile for him under his name or under any of the Hangman aliases. Does he have a reputation of being even more full of shit than the average over the hill nobody? Link to post Share on other sites

Has been peddling this ridiculous list of lies for the better part of 20 years. Slammed Andre. Won the NWA title. Tagged with Foley, the Rock, worked in X territories, was there when, he's done it all apparently. None of it really verifiable. A lot of it i.e working the Shea Stadium show for Bruno Larry was someone else working the Hangman gimmick that he shows the poster of and takes credit for. Essentially he paid to do Jimmy Valiant's wrestling school, who then tacitly approves any of his wild claims to fame. Despite being banned from Cauliflower Alley and debunked publicly by plenty, I'm shocked he's still at it. 1 Link to post Share on other sites

Casey 8,532 Posted February 14 Share Posted February 14 And all it took was a global pandemic for companies to work together. Meanwhile, WWE is still making record profits, signed that lucrative Peacock deal, and they're... *checks notes* denying pay raises and promotions for their staff. That's nothing new when it comes to capitalism, of course. But, still. This combined with the talent cuts last year... big oof. Link to post Share on other sites
Curt McGirt 13,146 Posted February 14 Share Posted February 14 Don't forget demanding a slice of the Twitch pie and whatever else their talent is doing on the side. And wrestling supposedly stopped acting like the Mafia when the territories ended! McMahon never got the note. Juicey Boy and the Finlay kid should be fun to watch. I see Juice now has... a Blues Brothers gimmick? 1 1 Link to post Share on other sites

Fighting a man with a perm 220 Posted February 14 Share Posted February 14 Matt Riddles theme at half time at the Arsenal match today. Brooooooo? Pretty much summed up my reaction at seeing Willian come on in the second half. My reverse voodoo is obviously not stronger than his stinkiness because I've slated him like this multiple times now 1 1 Link to post Share on other sites
Spontaneous 1,429 Posted February 14 Share Posted February 14 What is everyone's favorite promotion's ring bell? Mine is All Japan, their cadence makes it sound formal and has an air of finality to it. Before anyone judges me, you know you have one even if you don't know it yet. And yes, my description may have also sounded like a craft beer review. Link to post Share on other sites

paintedbynumbers 958 Posted February 14 Share Posted February 14 I am watching old 1991 WCW Tv from youtube and damn when I was 8 I remember searching every tv channel (we had satelite) trying to find those Omni shows. 8 yr old me thought all shows were live and that I could watch them on TV. To this day I am still hoping we get to see classic Omni shows. 2 Link to post Share on other sites
