I could do that in about two days if I had a lot of clips of those guys. If someone wants to send me lots of WMV clips of them, it'd be pretty easy. I'm already working on an MV with My Sacrifice as the song. EDIT: To the guy above: now that I think about it, there was an MV on the RAW 10th Anny show with clips of the worst gimmicks. It wasn't really a Desire-style video, but it was still good. Too bad I taped the A&E indy wrestling documentary over that because the 10th anny show was a considerable letdown.

Gabe probably knew Rob was gay all along AND that he was with the company. Rob was AT THE RF VIDEO OFFICE WITH GABE at one point. How could he ever have not have known he was still with the company?

Not sure if this works, but there's a clip of it in this MV: http://koti.mbnet.fi/zenbam/IWA_6-way.wmv

Anyone have this one? I have it on one of my best of RAW tapes. I don't have the technology to uplaod it, though.

It was supposed to be a Shooting Star DDT apparently, but he misaimed it and landed in a piledriver.

Suh-weet. This will be good.

Dynamite D will be contributing. He'll talk about Slammers, SCCW, and of course XPW.

The SCD animation above is from COD3.

BACKYARD KINGS WRESTLING CONTEST BEGINS! WINNERS WILL SEE THEIR MATCHES ON WORLDWIDE DISTRIBUTED HOME VIDEO! GRAND PRIZE WINS TRIP TO LOS ANGELES TO LOS ANGELES AND MATCH WITH XPW'S SUPREME! The search for the next big stars of backyard wrestling has begun. California based Rockssteady, Inc. has put together a contest allowing backyard wrestlers to gain some respect for what they do. "Backyard wrestling has proven itself to be a training ground for future wrestling stars," Rockssteady President, Rick Mandell, said, "From Mic Foley to Jeff Hardy, wrestling fans around the world have seen the footage. Another company, Backyard Wrestling, Inc. gave the backyard movement its first major exposure with its BWF wrestling series, but we are going to pick up where they left off." The Backyard Kings contest is open to backyarders worldwide through the website BackyardKings.com. Wrestlers are encouraged to send in their videotapes (VHS will not be returned, digital tapes like mind's will be returned if the entrant provides a padded self-addressed stamped envelope) of backyard matches from August 2003 through July 2004. The producers will select the best matches and the winners will appear on an internationally distributed home video. Wrestlers whose footage makes it to the home video will win 10 copies of both the VHS and DVD on which they appear. But, then the contest really begins. When the video is released, voting will begin on the Backyard Kings website. Fans from around the world will be able to vote for their favorite wrestler on the tape. In order to insure the votes are tabulated fairly, only one vote per IP address will be registered. The two wrestlers who receive the most votes will win great prizes, but more importantly, move on to the King of the Backyard Tournament. Once winners have been chosen from five editions of Backyard Kings, the single-elimination King of the Backyard Tournament will begin. Consisting of both singles and three-way matches, the tournament will take place across the United States. The two tournament finalists will enjoy an all-expense paid trip to Los Angeles where they will meet face-to-face on the ultimate backyard wrestling battleground created specially for the tournament final. The winner of the tournament will receive the first Backyard Kings World Championship Belt (made by the same maker of the WWF, WCW, ECW, and XPW championship belts) and get their first pro match, against XPW's Supreme, in front of a live audience in Los Angeles! The contest begins TODAY and wrestlers who want to be considered for the very first Backyard Kings release must have their footage submitted by August 31, 2004. Entries for the remaining four volumes will be accepted until December 31, 2004. All entries MUST be accompanied by forms, which are available at BackyardKings.com. Any submissions not accompanied by the entry form and required paperwork will be automatically disqualified. Do you have what it takes to prove you are a BACKYARD KING? Log on to www.BackyardKings.com today and find out!

Yup, and ROH. Just for ROH to run at Murphy Rec, they need the Philly Athletic license, and since the RF scandal broke, they've had to go through Rebel in order to convince the state to give them a license, and he keeps demanding match on their cards in return.

No, it's all real.

Without Rebel, CZW can't run shows at Viking Hall. If he leaves CZW, CZW, leaves Philadelphia. He's the owner of the Philadelphia Athletic Commission wrestling license.

From what some guys have said, Zandig's not on good terms with most people, ESPECIALLY Rockin Rebel. He and Rebel have patched things up a bit in the last few months (Earlier this year, Rebel was ready to quit CZW), but he still doesn't get along with many of his wrestlers. Greg Matthews, Danny Rose, Kashmere, and a few others left because they didn't want to deal with Zandig's attitude.

Zandig is the one on bad terms with BSB, not so much Burns, so their return ain't too likely. I like Blackout (which apparently was his idea) a lot. They really have a great gimmick, so hopefully they stick around. I didn't even know Burns helped book, but I don't blame him for gettnig sick of the politics. Zandig's made the locker room into a dementia ward.

Before: After:

Agreed. No argument there. That's what's so dumb - he's degrading himself more than he already has. But at the same time, let's not forget that talented guys like J-Pro and Sonjay are in a backyard game. So there is SOME talent in backyard wrestling, although quite little.

It's funny how they didn't even spell Mick Foley's name right. With all due respect, Supreme has been a pro wrestler for 9 years going on 10, so he certainly knows quite a bit, having worked with Sabu, Tanaka, Sandman, etc., but the idea of a BACKYARD WRESTLING *CONTEST* is just...weird. Madman Pondo would've been a better choice, but he doesn't live in Cali so I guess that's why they picked Supreme. But hey, who knows - maybe we'll see the next deathmatch sensation. (I'm not holding my breath, LOL.)

Sounds interesting. The daughter of the ref stuff especially.

Have lots and lots of sex with Test.

Ya. I mean, a lot of this shit has to do with controversial matters and tender issues - there's some personal stuff that it talks about (obviously Messiah, but also Damien Steele's downfall and some other stuff) and I have to get the OK from some people. Really - I can't tell you how much it means people are getting into this. I really want people to enjoy this and not just have it be some rambling thing, but at the same time I have to balance other aspects.

I understand. It's gonna be a long process. You don't know how much research and stuff is involved with this. I put in calls to two wrestlers tonight. I'll probably do the same with some others tomorrow. I'm working my ass off to balance contacting people with writing the actual thing. I'll try to get the next part out ASAP. It shouldn't be long. I wanna make sure I do this stuff right before I go and print it.

I found this on another message board. It was posted early today. No source given, but this is the article: 600-Pound Woman Dies After Being Surgically Removed From Couch STUART, Fla. -- A dramatic rescue ended tragically in Stuart, Florida, a rescue so difficult firefighters say they have never seen anything like it. It happened late Tuesday night and early Wednesday morning at the home of a 600-pound woman who was having trouble breathing. Rescuers went in not knowing how difficult it would be to get her out. 40-year-old Gail Grinds was literally stuck to her couch and had to be removed surgically at the hospital. Authorities estimate she had been on the couch anywhere from two to five years. Martin County Fire amd Rescue crews faced what seemed to be an impossible mission. Everyone going inside had to wear protective gear. The stench was so powerful they had to blast in fresh air. They tried to cut out the front door, but at four-and-a-half feet wide, it wouldn't work. They had to cut plywood since a normal stretcher wouldn't do. An ambulance was too small, so they brought in a trailer to get her out. While rescue crews came up with a back-door rescue plan, detectives secured what had become a crime scene, questioning family members about how it got so bad. Using planks, they loaded the woman on to the trailer, still attached to the couch. Removing her would be too painful, since her body is grafted to the fabric. After years of staying put, her skin has literally become one with the sofa and it must be surgically removed. Detectives are investigating whether they have a case of neglect, or if it is simply a very sad story. Grinds was taken to the Martin Memorial hospital where doctors removed her from the couch, but she died in spite of all the attempts to save her life.

This thread is funny. Very much so.

Snuka vs. Steamboat in the US (it happened twice in Japan in the '80,s but never in the U.S. to my knowledge).
