  1. The WWF missed out on a great gimmick when Henry and Phineas stopped being pig farmers and became Jeff Jarrett's henchmen. Why call them Southern Justice when they could have been "Godwinns Law".
  2. Has anyone read "Ballyhoo!: The Roughhousers, Con Artists, and Wildmen Who Invented Professional Wrestling (Sports and American Culture)"?
  3. Undertaker showed up in Saudi Arabia to present a soccer trophy. This is how RONALDO REACTED TO UNDERTAKER presented Riyadh Season Cup trophy in Al-Nassr vs Al-Hilal - YouTube
  4. Disgraceful scenes at West Brom vs Wolves.
  5. I remember the Mongolian Mauler for having a cup of coffee in WCW in 1990, including being in the finals of the "African tournament" to be in the Pat 'O Connor Memorial Tag Team Tournament at Starrcade '90. He also wrestled in Britain for quite a few years, notably appearing in the Robbie Brookside Video Diaries documentary in 1993. RIP.
  6. IMO Bruiser Brody would have come into the WWF and got the run that Bad News Brown actually got.
  7. Are tag teams of two already inducted wrestlers eligible for the HOF? Eg Stevens & Patterson, Bockwinkel & Stevens, Bruiser & Crusher?
  8. I don't know why it's come out so small but if you click on it, it's the first few pages of the novel. Looks dreadful.
  9. Bobby Eaton Sherri Martel Buddy Landel Vader Davey Boy Smith Owen Hart Yokozuna Mantaur Jimmy Del Ray Rip Oliver Dick Murdoch That's 11 just off the top of my head. There's definitely more if you consider all the guys Cornette managed in Memphis when he was Jimmy Hart's assistant.
  10. RIP Adrian Street. https://www.ringsidenews.com/2023/07/31/adrian-street-passes-away-at-82-years-old/
  11. And another Wednesday/Forest legend Chris Bart-Williams passes away the same day. RIP.
  12. RIP Trevor Francis, Britain's first million pound player and someone who I spotted in the crowd at the first WWF house show I went to, in April 1991.
  13. Amazing elephant seems to be imitating Ric Flair.
  14. Distant wrestling relations. Andrade's father in law's cousin's uncle's former son in law is Spike Huber.
  15. Random match from 1988, the last year of "World of Sport" wrestling. 2 wrestlers turned actors, Pat Roach of Indiana Jones fame, vs "Sky Walker" aka Tyler Mane of X-Men and Rob Zombie's "Halloween" fame.
  16. There's no holiday camp shows from Butlins, Pontins etc on there as far as I can see and some wrestlers would have worked hundreds of them. They only have 1164 matches listed for Robbie Brookside and he had a 30 year career as a full-time wrestler.
  17. It doesn't have any results for him from any of those countries. Only USA, Canada, Japan, the Bahamas and one match in Switzerland. I'm sure there's lots missing from the site. Small non-Mexico City Lucha shows, shows in community centres in Britain attended by kids and old ladies, random tours of Asia and Africa that have been run over the years. There was a tour of Australia in 1990ish headlined by Paul Orndorff vs Bam Bam Bigelow which I remember reading about in magazines which isn't on there. I saw El Hijo del Santo vs Blue Panther in a church in Colchester, England in 2005 (they had a 2nd match in the same city the following day), that's not on there.
  18. Bingo. That one surprised me. Just because he only seemed to be a part time wrestler once he hit 40.
  19. Valentine is correct, 1003 listed opponents. Terry Gordy - 592 Juvi - 813 Dave Taylor - 420 Satanico - 403 I've no doubt plenty of results for Lucha and old-school British wrestling are missing from the site. But those guys fought the same opponents many many times, rather than different opponents a few times.
  20. Ricky Steamboat - 492 Larry Zbyszko - 558 Nick Bockwinkel - 759
