Alter Boy Luke? Yes.

Ya, that was kinda established a few posts back, genius...

I am in contact with the one and only Missy Hyatt and have requested an interview with her about XPW. So far, she doesn't seem like she wants to do it but I will keep you all posted.

No, it's not. That's Xtreme Fight Club and going to be heardquartered in Philly, and is going to be on a much smaller scale. This promotion is being headed by Kevin Kleinrock's video company. There's another huge name that's going to be involved in the project, but I don't want to let the cat out of the bag quite yet.

Extreme Case headed to Supreme Court Credit: AVN.com PITTSBURGH, Pa. - In an order dated Jan. 9, the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Third Circuit formally denied attorney H. Louis Sirkin's petition for an "en banc" reconsideration of the reinstatement of charges against Extreme Associates, Rob Black and Lizzie Borden. The petition came about as a result of a Dec. 8, 2005 ruling by a three-judge panel of the Third Circuit, all appointees of conservative presidents, which overturned the well-reasoned ruling by District Court judge Gary Lancaster throwing out indictments against the defendants for interstate trafficking in obscenity. Notably, however, the panel did not deal with the substance of Judge Lancaster's ruling, but with what it considered to be a procedural defect, in that Judge Lancaster's ruling seemingly contradicted established precedent. Sirkin's en banc petition, however, argued that the panel had misapprehended the defense arguments, which drew on substantive due process rights inherent in the U.S. Constitution's Fifth Amendment rather than the First Amendment – arguments which had not been made in previous Supreme Court obscenity precedent cases. Nonetheless, Sirkin's en banc petition was rejected. "The petition for rehearing filed by appellant [Extreme] in the above-entitled case having been submitted to the judges who participated in the decision of this Court and to all the other available circuit judges of the circuit in regular active service," wrote Judge D. Brooks Smith, the presiding judge of the original three-judge panel, "and no judge who concurred in the decision having asked for rehearing, and a majority of the circuit judges of the circuit in regular service not having voted for rehearing, the petition for rehearing by the panel and the Court en banc, is denied." Although not available for comment at press time, Sirkin has previously indicated that if his en banc petition failed, that he would seek to have the panel's ruling reconsidered by filing a petition for certiorari with the U.S. Supreme Court. That court is not required to grant such petition, however, and if it fails to do so, then the case would proceed to trial, probably sometime this summer.

I too remember the match with Mark Henry and how it was surprisingly very fun. The match with Jarrett at SummerSlam '99 was the best opener I've seen on a WWE PPV since WM10 (Owen/Bret). D'Lo's matches with X-Pac were also awesome.

I'm trying to get back in contact with Webb both to do a followup interview and to get an interview with her. Once I do get back in contact with him, it'll probably be easy to get an interview with her. I would've asked for her when I was in contact with him but I found out they were together a few months after the interview.

Update on Rob's case: Credit: AVN.com Sirkin Moves for Full Court Hearing in Extreme Case By: Mark Kernes PITTSBURGH - On Dec. 22, H. Louis Sirkin, attorney for Extreme Associates as well as its owners Rob Black and Lizzy Borden, filed a motion with the Third U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals for an en banc hearing of the government's motion to reinstate the federal obscenity charges against the defendants. An en banc hearing, if Sirkin's motion is granted, would mean that most or all of the 14 Third Circuit appeals judges would rehear the arguments presented last October to a three-judge panel of that circuit. That panel found against Extreme, vacating Judge Gary Lancaster's pre-trial order and reinstating all of the government's original charges against the defendants. "Absent an en banc review, the panel's decision threatens to jeopardize the emerging right to privacy, particularly in matters affecting human sexuality, that has been recognized by the Supreme Court," Sirkin wrote in his motion. "Second," the motion continues, "the panel improperly applied the Supreme Court's decision in Agostini v. Felton... to a line of antiquated and factually irrelevant cases, resulting in a ruling that altogether fails to consider the merits of Extreme's argument. More specifically, the panel applied decisions rejecting a First Amendment right to purchase or transport obscenity in inherently public channels of commerce to Extreme's Fifth Amendment substantive due process claim. In addition, the panel also failed to recognize the significance of the fact that the purchases here occurred over the Internet, a new medium of communication not envisioned or discussed in the Supreme Court's prior case law. The review of the full Court is therefore necessary to ensure that the significant constitutional questions presented in this appeal are properly addressed and answered without being summarily dismissed at the hand of inapplicable precedent." Look for a more in-depth analysis of this motion this week on AVN.com.

I talked to Messiah and he said that no, he didn't see either of them there. I'm thinking maybe Messiah just went to the AVN Expo (preceding the awards show), which I guess Rob and Lizzy weren't a part of.

Rob Black and Messiah in the same building just days ago? You heard it here first, ladies and gentlemen. It is unconfirmed but of VERY distinct likelihood that Rob Black, Lizzy Borden, and The Messiah were in the same building this past weekend - the Grand Ball Room at the Venetian Hotel in Chatsworth, CA. Messiah attended the AVN Awards Show in Las Vegas. Rob Black and Lizzy Borden - as a couple - received the Rueben Sturman award at the event. I have sent a message to Messiah asking him if they came at all close to crossing paths. The possibility of them being in the same building is VERY interesting considering their very serious real-life heat. Rob Black a Changed Man? In his acceptance speech, Black shocked everyone by apologizing to everyone he treated like crapin the past many years. In regards to his court case, he said he would never "cop a deal," he will never back down from the government, and he will continue to exercise his freedom of speech and make sure every other American is able to do the same thing. He vowed to fight the government, even if that meant carrying the heat of the government's crusade against porn on his shoulders.

This guy's 2005 was every bit as good as Mike Quackenbush who everyone seems to say had the best year of any CZW junior heavyweight. Frazier's moves are fluid, crisp, and totally original. Fluid is the best way I can think to describe his high-flying. All his flips are executed so beautifully. While I thought the TLC match they had at COD7 was a letdown (no selling/pacing/and worst of all no transitioning...JC vs. Nate from Violent By Design was much better), their other matches in 2005 have produced one of the most overlooked feud of the year candidates. A feud between him and Sonjay would be tremendous. I will go on record right now as saying that by mid-2007, Derek Frazier will be one of the top 5 most high-profile junior heavyweights on the indy circuit (as in, what AJ Styles, Chris Sabin, Jack Evans, Red, Petey Williams, etc. are now). He will be in TNA and he will have been to Japan. I have a new favorite wrestler going into 2006. Give this guy a chance, people. I'm not the only one who thinks this guy deserves a lot more credit than he gets, am I?

CREDIT: DOI, so take it for what it's worth The DOI has been receiving several emails from several employees/talent/staff of CZW, talking about an incident involving CZW Owner, John Zandig and CZW Production Assistant, Michael Pancoast. According to several people in CZW, apparently there was a physical altercation between the two, at Cage of Death VII. During Cage of Death VII, former CZW IronMan Champion, Chris Hero, cut a promo, challenging American Dragon Bryan Danielson for a match at the next event. When Zandig heard the promo live, he was fuming and irate. Apparently, Zandig did not know about the deal that CZW booker, Mike Burns arranged with ROH Booker, Gabe Sapolsky. The news of CZW working with ROH, made Zandig go into a frenzy. Upon hearing the news, backstage, Zandig was going nuts, and even threatened not to wrestle in the main event of Cage of Death. Why Zandig would sabotage his own company is not known, as of press time. Michael Pancoast, who many might not know, but is very valuable to the company, as he handles the website, the graphic/designs for CZW, the CZWtron, the Ultraviolent Underound and other numerous oddjobs, went to approach Zandig as Zandig was flipping out. Pancoast asked Zandig why would you do this to CZW, especially after all the work that everyone in CZW put into Cage of Death? Zandig told Pancoast not to raise his voice with him, but Pancoast was visiably and understandably upset. After having a very vocal argument, where Pancoast was trying to look out for the best interests of CZW, John Zandig couldn't control his anger, and allegedly, pushed Michael Pancoast down a flight of stairs, from the Crows nest. It is not known if Pancoast was able to break the fall, by holding the rail, during mid flight down the steps, or if he had a crash landing on the locker room floor. Allegedly, when Zandig pushed Michael Pancoast down, he was quoted, to me, by one CZW staff member as saying, "Make sure to grab the rail on your way down." After this incident, and after being pissed about the Chris Hero/Dragon ROH Deal, it has come to the DOI's attention, that CZW booker, Mike Burns has left CZW. What is not known as of right now, is if Mike Burns quit CZW or was relieved of his duties by John Zandig. What is known was that Zandig was steaming mad at Burns for setting up a deal with ROH, without telling him first. Mike Burns has been credited with turning the company around this year, and has been largely responsible for CZW's success this year. According to several CZW employees, Zandig was overheard saying he's going to turn the company back to the way it was. Zandig also made reference to Burns departure at the end of Cage of Death, when he said he was going to change the company back to the way it was, which could be a good or bad thing. As of right now, Mike Burns is not going to be at CZW's next event. However, his company, Smart Mark Video, is still believed to be taping the event. Glen and Gary of SMV, are supposedly going to be manning the camera's at CZW's next event in January. While speaking of CZW's next event, CZW is advertising a "No-Ropes-Barbed-Wire" match between CZW Owner, John Zandig and Indy Hardcore Journeyman, Necro Butcher. According to state officials that the DOI has been in contact with, John Zandig has been told in the past that he can't do this type of match, under the PSAC rules & regulations. Apparantly, Zandig is attempting to defy the PSAC's power to enforce the rules, as Zandig is promoting the match without clearing it with the PSAC first. It should be noted that when Hardcore Homecoming did their "No-Ropes-Barbed-Wire" match, officials from Hardcore Homecoming asked the PSAC what they could do ahead of time and cleared the match before promoting it. That is why Hardcore Homecoming was allowed to do their bout. In addition, Hardcore Homecoming didn't use a "No-Ropes-Barbed-Wire" match in their advertising for the event, and drew a large crowd without using the gimmick match to draw fans. In an attempt to gather more information about all these occurrences, I checked out the official CZW website, at CZWrestling.com. Upon arriving at the website, I noticed that the original site and archives have all been taken down. It is known that Michael Pancoast runs the website and is in charge of maintaining it. However, if you go to CZW's website today, you'll notice that the site, which was Flash heavy and graphic heavy, has been reduced to one page of straight up text. There was no explanation given to why the website was changed, when it looked so good in the past. As of right now, the DOI doesn't know the status of Michael Pancoast in CZW. It is alleged that Zandig has tried extending an olive branch to Michael, but several in CZW have told the DOI that Pancoast would be nuts to accept it. The one thing that really sticks out to me, from a personal note, is the fact that so many people in CZW were willing to provide this information to the DOI. For a company that has been close knit for many years, I couldn't believe the abundance of information that I was receiving. Having been covering the indies for several years now, whenever controversy like this is spread, and openly talked about to people like myself, and others who cover indy wrestling, usually the writing is on the wall. In an attempt to shed more light on these events, the DOI has been in contact with someone with knowledge of this situation. We will attempt to do an interview with this person on Thursday, here on the DOI site. CZW returns on 1/14 at the New Alhambra.

Agreed

Quack's full moveset, from my move list with all 50 plus manuevers he uses: [edited on January 1, 2007 because Wikipedia is trying to steal it without crediting me or Louis Kendrick)

The PPV may suck, but the Credible/Francine/DDP promo and Mikey Whipwreck promo on the site are fucking hilarious.

I'm pretty sure everything will be free, so don't worry about paying. The interview isn't gonna be released in Q&A form; Josh's comments are going to be incorporated into the articles, just like is being done with Douglas, Lynn, Hamrick, and everyone else who's contributing.

Oh, OK. I didn't know who she was till Josh told me.

Josh Lazie has seen and done it all in the entertainment industry. As the former-bassist for the rock band Danzig, he has headlined concerts in the biggest arenas thinkable, ranging from Japan to Germany to Mexico. After leaving the music industry, he - for the better part of two years - basically lived with Sabu. He was Sabu’s booking agent, his in-ring manager, his friend, his personal confidant, and his traveling buddy. At the same time, Lazie was Rob Black’s best friend and worst enemy. In mid-2001, Lazie had a falling out with his former-best friend Rob Black. The result was he, Sabu, and The Messiah all leaving XPW the same week. Since then, he has refused to comment on the specifics of the problems between himself and Rob Black…until now. On Tuesday, December 20, 2005, the one and only Josh Lazie made his impact on the “History of XPW: Bleeding Was Only HALF the Job” retrospective like only he can. Lazie made it clear going into the interview that there was no topic whatsoever that was off-limits in this interview. The result was not only some great stories about Steve Corino, UPW promoter Rick Bassman, Bruce Hart, and others, but also some very candid comments. For the first time ever, Lazie grants complete access to his personal life. He makes some very frank remarks about The Messiah and their real-life heat, and he gives the details of he and Kristi Myst’s relationship (How’d it start? How did Messiah play into it? What went wrong?), and he explains exactly where things went wrong between himself and Rob Black. Lazie also takes you behind closed doors and into the inner workings of XPW. Exactly what was discussed in he and Sabu’s private meetings with Bruce Hart, Atsushi Onita, and Shoichi Arai? How close did XPW come to running shows in Japan? What’s the TRUTH about drugs and sexual favors in the XPW locker room? And perhaps best of all, find out exactly what it was like hanging out with the one and only Sabu, 24/7 (What strip club did the two frequent most often?). This includes Lazie telling the story of how one night, he and Sabu found themselves locked together in a jail cell in Mexico. These are just some quick previews of what you can expect from Lazie’s part in this retrospective: “We had to turn a blind eye to it in order for…[read the retrospective and find out!].” - about drugs in the XPW locker room “I wouldn’t leave my wife alone with him.” - on The Messiah “If you had a drug or attitude problem or were a WWF, WCW, or ECW reject, then we wanted you here because you were tailor-made for XPW.” - paraphrased “If I had a nickel for every time Rob said ‘This is how Paul [Heyman] would do it,’ I would be rich.” “If you really want to strike up a conversation with him, ask him about barbecuing.” - about Abdullah the Butcher “Sabu wanted so badly for XPW to work.” “He’s the type of guy who - when he’s talking - you just sit there and devote every single last ounce of your attention and respect to and savor every word he says.” - about Sabu’s uncle, Ed “The Original Sheik” Farhat “Hayabusa and [Masato] Tanaka had every single intention of working for us.” “I don’t have anything positive to say about her, but I won’t shoot on her here out of respect for [her husband and former-XPW wrestler Johnny] Webb because I have so much respect for him.” - about Veronica Caine “It’s so sad the way she was treated there and the way she let herself be treated.” - on Kristi Myst “He’s the type of guy who - if you’re at a restaurant and you have no money - he’ll take the tab. He hates kayfabe being broken, especially around him, but he’s got such a big heart.” - on Sabu If you’ve never been in the heart of Los Angeles, California, the next best thing is to let Josh Lazie take you there in this no-holds-barred interview. From the wrestling to the business to the partying to the controversy, Lazie is an open book on his experiences in XPW. By contributing to this retrospective, Lazie joins Shane Douglas, Jerry Lynn, Shark Boy, Vic Grimes, Kevin Kleinrock, Chris Hamrick, Kris Kloss, Larry Rivera, all of the homegrowns (from Supreme to Pogo to Kaos to Jimmy to everyone else), and many more names to be announced. Also endorsed by former-WWE and WCW superstar Chris Kanyon, the “History of XPW: Bleeding Was Only HALF the Job” retrospective will show you XPW as you’ve NEVER seen it before. For more information, please e-mail [email protected]. Also, keep your eye out for news on the retrospective as a web site devoted to it will be launched in the coming weeks.
