    Give me tips for making a wrestling music video

    OK, sorry to bump. I'm gonna do three videos with the following songs: "My Sacrifice," by Creed, "Numb," by Linkin Park, and "When I'm Gone," by 3 Doors Down. I have LP and Creed, but I need to find a copy of a long verson of When I'm Gone. Kazaa doesn't work for me. It just completely screws up my computer. I've done searches on yahoo for various combinations of "3 doors down when im gone audio download mp3 wav" and the only thing I can find is a midi copy of the song, but it's weird. It's like...not the song. It's at http://www.findmidis.com/download.go/1649 , and it plays fine for me, only it doesn't have the words, and its a weird version of the song...its as if it was played with only selected instruments. It's clearly not the professional version (if that's what you'd call it). Where can I find the real version of the song for download? You'd be helping a lot, because I can't start on that MV before I have the song.
  3. I'm going to make my first wrestling music video in the coming weeks, since I finally got my hands on a music video maker (Windows Movie Player). If it helps in terms of specific advice you can give, it's going to be a tribute video for XPW, as a part of a retrospective I'm doing about the company's history. I'm trying to find a good song that will last as long as possible...just a really dramatic, emotional song (not overly, though; it MUST have a part where it starts going berserk...anotherwards, gets faster and louder) the likes of Creed's "My Sacrafice," Kid Rock's "Lonely Road of Faith," AFI's "God Called in Sick" today...my knowledge of music and songs is really limited because I don't really watch much up-to-date MTV, and the only mainstream songs I really know about - save for *some* exceptions - are what I've heard in wrestling music videos. I need the song to run as long as possible because I really want to go ALL OUT, in terms of just showing all I can of XPW with a lot of emotion. I have tons of clips I need. That won't be a problem. It'll be pacing and figuring out a song to use that'll be the problem. I also really need tips on pacing, and stuff like that. I don't know how to make clips fade into the next one, so the fideo will be pretty basic, but what I can do is cut frames off and - for instance - if I wanted to, I could make a clip go down to probably half a second, although I probably woldn't want to because it wouldn't be clear what the hell it was of. My questions about pacing cover the idea of where in the song would I put all the high-flying and death match - the high impact, so to say - clips, where would I put the calmer ones (like just of guys walking to the ring, posing on the top turnbuckle, etc.), etc. I guess for the high impact stuff, I would put most of that towards the "height" of the song, so to say...where it really gets fast and loud, right? I plan on only doing one video and not a bunch of tribute videos, so if possible I'd like to fit as many clips as possible, but not just fit a lot of clips...I want to really go "all out" with the drama of it all. I don't know...is that possible with just one song? I mean, probably anything's possible with computers these days, but do you think it's like...logical, rational to try to do, or is it not even worth it? Which brings me to this - is there a way with Windows Media Player that isn't too hard to figure out for a newbie, where you could segue into another song, midway through? If so, how? Also, is there a limit on the number of times you could segue from one song to another? Not that I'm planning to...trust me...but would it be possible to change the song like 10 times throughout a video and make like a 20 minute video? Again, I'm not planning to, I'm just trying to understand the capabilities and limits of this program. I've read through the entire "Help" menu and have done a few VERY quick practice stuff with non-XPW clips, so at this point I'm looking to get pretty down and dirty with it all. Also, is there a way to slow down a clip and make it go in slow motion using Windows Movie Maker? Also, can you change the color scheme of a clip using WMM...i.e. make the tint of the clip a certain color, and then go back to normal on the next clip? Better yet, is this a rational undertaking for a newbie? As far as getting a song to use, I'll probably just download one off of Kazaa and get as long a version as I can of it. Of course, as I said, I would - if possible - like to segue from one song into another, if possible? Can I using WMM? And better yet, is it really difficult to do for a newbie? As I said, I read through the entire "Help" menu and the topics I'm asking about, it doesn't cover. Back to the clips I wanna use - I want to cover all the different aspects of XPW: the insane death match bumps of Supreme, Homeless Jimmy, Angel, and Messiah; the less-bump-oriented, but still hardcore style of Webb, Nosawa, etc.; the high-flying expertise of Kaos, M-Dogg 20, Jonny Storm, Altar Boy Luke, even guys like Kronus; the scientific/mat wrestling awesomeness of Jerry Lynn, Dynamite D, Chris Hamrick, etc.; New Jack's balcony dives; the lucha styles of MMW, Psychosis, Super Crazy, and Juventud Guerrera; the generally innovative wrestling maneuvers (in terms of making up and using stuff you haven't really seen before) of Kaos, The Dead Prez, Vic Grimes, the Rev. Pro luchadores, MMW, and Chris Hamrick; the nostalgia of seeig Abby, Sabu, Funk, Douglas, Candido, etc.; the comedic talents of Tracy Smothers, Webb, Steve Rizzono, Julio Dinero, the Enterprise, and Kraq & Angel; a few quick clips showing the creepyness of the Pogo the Clown gimmick; maybe some quick clips of the women (J-Love, Lizzy Borden, Kristi Myst, whoever); etc. Obviously, I want the in-ring stuff to be the focal point of the video, but if possible, some of the side stuff - the comedy, the women, etc. - would be cool to feature. But again, do you think, rationally, that that's possible to try to do with just one video? Or do I need to start thinking more seriously about being more conservative in what clips and the number of clips I wanna use? Again, I haven't made a video yet. If I don't get any replies, I'm gonna go ahead and probably start slow...clips of guys posing in the ring or on their way to it...and gradually segue into more high impact stuff, and use the music to judge how fast-paced the clips will be. I don't really know how else to say it - I know the technical aspect of it very well...the pacing and ordering of clips...the idea of playing to song I pick (which again, I kinda need help picking)... is what's gonna fuckin kill me, probably.

    It's an autographed Shawn Michaels lifesized cardboard standup. I don't know if I'd sell it. For the right price, I guess.

    CZW Tournament of Death 3 Results!

    Let's hope Zandig actually pays his workers this time and doesn't bounce any checks like he did to Terry Funk the last time. Actually airing the PPV on the day they announce would also be another good start.

    Ya, I remember that. Pro Wrestling Illustrated reprinted its article about that a few months ago in a recent issue.

    I just thought of something... let's get this straight - this promotion lasted for such a short time that we were able to start a thread devoted entirely to it, keep that thread, see the beginning of the promotion in that thread, and see the end of it in the thread, too. WOW.

    Jay, please don't ban me for saying this, but Jesus fucking Christ. This is just insane. Everyone was right. WOW, just WOW. About what Soylent Green Is People had to say about this - I'm not all that shocked (although I was sure that after being so stupid and having to cancel the first show, and messing up with MLW, they'd get it right this time), I'm just in awe at how unorganized a "business man" could be.

    Most Blown Spots

    In the ROH match vs. Low Ki, it was meant to be a Springboard Shooting Star DDT, but Ki was in the wrong place and Fleisch landed a piledriver instead. It wasn't intentional.

    The OAO What's this move thread

    Isn't an NLB sorta like a bodyslam lift into an inverted DDT? That move has always confused me. It looks so different when its done in Japan compared to when Al Snow does it.

    Olympic Wrestlers to appear

    With Tony Jones disappearing from the face of the earth, the indy circuit could use another amateur guy who can adjust well to the entertainment side of wreslting. Too bad they probably have no interest in TNA...actually, considering TNA would use them horribly, that may be a good thing.

    Why is Shane Douglas an interviewer in TNA?

    The injuries piled up. Plus, he has two kids and a wife at home who he wants to spend time with. In the last few years, he's been a shell of his former self in the ring, so it's probably best that he did leave in-ring competition temporarily. He's not retired permanently. He still works a match every few months for smaller indies, but he's slowing down his bookings right now. I know of one wrestler who met him two years ago and every day he watched a Shane Douglas match after getting to know him - whether it be from his ECW, WWF, WCW, XPW, USA Pro, WWA, whatever days - would stop, turn off the VCR once Douglas' match came on, and say a prayer that he was alright now before turning the VCR back on and watching the match. That's how bad the injuries were piling up for him and those around him knew it.

    Legal question, sorta

    I'm not sure where this would fit in when it comes to forums, so I guess it goes here. I remember hearing various times in the past that there's some web site that lets you search to find out what person, copmany, organization, etc. owns a particular trademark. I know in the WWE forum people have posted stuff about reports surfacing on how [insert wrestler name] has been trademarked by WWE, and then start speculating that WWE probably plans on bringing in a guy by that name (or if it's a well known name, on hiring that guy and registering his name legally). I sorta remember a couple of those types of posts actually having links to what was apparently the official record for that trademark on some web site...I guess a trademark web site of some sort....but I never had any interest in seeing for myself, but lately I've gotten curious. Is there such a web site? Let's say I wanna see for myself if WWE has registered [insert wrestler name]. Is there a way I can do that? Is there a way I could search the records of WWE and see what they have trademarked? Heck, outside of wrestling, is there a way to see what company has [insert product name] trademarked, or which company has trademarked the book title [insert book title] by seraching a web site? Is that possible to do? And if so, what web site do I go to?

    Sabu's career record book

    I got a couple of dates and matches that they're missing. Not many though. What's really weird is that I was working on EXACTLY this over the last few months - compiling a record of every single of of Sabu's matches I could find. Weird. His PWA Collision With Tradition loss to Balls Mahoney on 3/9/03 in Danbury, CT isn't listed. I don't seem to see his GSCW match vs. Messiah either, although that may be in there and I may be missing it. EDIT: Sabu worked Owen Hart? Now THAT'S a weird combo... Also, anyone know if there are other record books like these online anywhere for different wrestlers, other than Sabu, and if so where they can be found?

    Interview: Leroy the Ring Crew Guy

    Interview: Leroy the Ring Crew Guy (formerly of XPW) CONDUCTED: Early April 2004 by LucharesuFan619 Q: Did you grow up in California? A: Yes, I’ve lived here in LA all my life. Q: What was your childhood like? Were you a wrestling fan? If so, who/what were some of your favorite wrestlers/tag teams/promotions/matches, etc.? A: My childhood was very simple. I was the oldest of three boys and led a normal childhood. I was a wrestling fan ever since I was six (I’m 21 now). My favorite wrestlers were: Jake “The Snake” Roberts, The Ultimate Warrior, Repo Man, etc. Around ’98, I really got into ECW and then became a huge Al Snow and Mick Foley fan. Mick’s match against Undertaker in Hell in the Cell (at WWF King of the Ring ’98) made me want to be a wrestler. I always wanted to top those falls, somehow. Q: How/when did you get started into backyard wrestling? Why'd you do it? A: I started backyard wrestling freshman year of high school. A friend and I loved wrestling and – after a failed attempt as tape traders – we got into backyard wrestling. The first year was really lame, as we were learning and what not, but eventually – after hooking up with many other backyard feds in So-Cal – we ended up putting on some amazing shows. I loved wrestling and wanted to do that. Having no knowledge of how to join a school, I did [backyard wrestling], and when I did find a school, it was either way too expensive or didn’t let people my age train. I ended up doing [backyard wrestling] for four years, and quit when I joined wrestling school. You can see my backyard stuff on MTV's “True life: I’m A Backyard Wrestler,” “Best of Backyard Wrestling, Volume 2,” and various news reports. [EDITOR’S NOTE: For other video clips of Leroy and his friends during their backyard wrestling career, visit www.NoMercyVideo.com]. Q: Are you trained? If so, by whom, when/where did you train, and what was the experience like? A: I was part of the first class for XPW's Asylum wrestling school in December of 99, I believe it was. The first part of my training was by Damien Steele, who wasn’t very hands on and occasionally stole students’ moves, and pretended to not know us at shows. Then Dynamite D was brought in to train and it was immediately apparent how much of a better trainer he was. I still consider the man a friend today and he helped me out greatly. I can’t thank him enough. Q: How/when did you get to be on XPW's ring crew? A: Since I was part of the Asylum, I was part of the ring crew. In the beginning, it was hard because 1. there weren’t a lot of us, 2. that big f*cking metal “X,” [EDITOR’S NOTE: Leroy is referring to the “X”-shaped structure that XPW required be put up at all of it’s shows for it’s first year or so.] and 3. we were still learning. I loved it, though, and it was a lot of fun and also hard work. Q: Did you have any hesitation at the idea of working for a wrestling company that was owned by a porno company? A: Well, I have no problem with porn, so I had no problem working next to it. A lot of odd run ins with porn stars, though, and it’s hard for me to watch their porno films as I got to know a lot of the guys in them. It’s a lot easier when you don’t know the guy and you can tune them out. Q: Where/how did the RCG gimmick come from/about? Were/are you an RVD fan? A: I was a big RVD fan, but that had nothing to do with the decision to be RCG. They let me know I was in the tournament (at Damage Inc. on 8/25/01) by way of the TV show. I was invited to the XPWrestling.com webmaster’s house (that of Jonathan and Slava “OG” Siderman) to watch the XPW TV show, being as I didn’t get it at home. I was so shocked when they revealed I was the eighth participant of the Television Title tourney. After it aired, Kevin [Kleinrock] called to make sure I would do it. I said, “Hells yes!” I would. Then, before the show, I was told to just dress as a normal jobber. However, I was told an hour before the show to add some RVD-style moves to the match and work the RCG gimmick. It made me feel a lot better and gave me a character to work on. I was told that [“White Trash” Johnny] Webb was responsible for the RCG gimmick, so I thank him greatly for that. Q: What was it like to work with Vic Grimes at Damage Inc.? A: It was awesome. There was such a major rush when I walked out in front of the crowd. Grimes was very helpful and was happy to wrestle me, due to the heat he would be receiving. Grimes was one of my favorite people to hang out with backstage, and I’m very happy my pro debut was against him. After the match, I received the only compliment I would hear in three years of service from Rob Black, and those words were "Nice match, Leroy," or something to that effect. Q: You had two matches vs. "White Trash" Johnny Webb at XPW Halloween In Hell II (a.k.a. Blown To Hell) in late 2001.They were all like a minute long, but still...how'd you like working with Webb? Do you have any specific memories of that night? A: I remember calling Kevin a week before the show, after hearing about the exploding ring deathmatch. I was gonna’ offer to try to run in on Vic Grimes and get tossed into an explosive. Kevin got on the phone [and sounded] kinda’ excited, and said he had a good idea for me. Then, he told me about the match idea [with Webb], and I was all for that. I thought it was awesome. First the TV Title shot, then the World one. I did ring crew that morning as usual, then I did all the fog effects and strobe lights for the entrances up until my match. Then, after [my match], I got food for people from the snack bar. Q: What are some of the sickest bumps that you've taken during your backyard and pro wrestling career? A: During my time doing backyard wrestling: multiple 450° Splashes off the roof, a dive off my neighbor’s two story roof through two tables, flaming table matches, a backdrop out of the ring (I landed on my head), a fisherman suplex through a door (causing me to hit a brick wall…I couldn’t walk for three days.), had light tubes broken on my arms and I was covered in blood, and various other stuff. After getting professionally trained at the XPW Asylum, my most notable bumps include: a back bump off the top of the cage to the floor during the Messiah vs. Sabu match at Scene of the Crime; being thrown off of the entrance stage by Abdullah the Butcher in Ventura; having Abby try to slam me head-first through a table; Abdullah tried to slam me head-first through a table, only to have it not break and me get a huge bump on my head; when we were moving the ring, I fell off a support beam and twisted my ankle, then worked security the next night, and after all the people got done stepping on it, the next morning it was black and dark purple up to the ankle. Also, Sabu dislocated my jaw with a punch to the chin. Q: When/why did you stop working for XPW? Your last match was in late 2001, but I imagine you worked the ring crew at least a few shows after that, though, right? A: Yeah, I had decided to stay until the third deathmatch tourney because those are a b*tch to set up, and they would need all the help they could get, but Rob [black] told me to get the f*ck out before then, mainly because I was tired of Rob’s constant insults and what not. They kinda’ killed my desire to go to practice and keep trying…That and I was working a high maintenance job at the time and I couldn’t go to practice, sometimes. So, Rob said if I wasn’t gonna’ help the company, I could get the f*ck out. Dynamite D offered to try to talk to him about it, but I said, “F*ck it,” because I was leaving after the next show, anyway. What pissed me off the most is Rob didn’t say it to my face. I wouldn’t have hit him or anything. It just would’ve been much more respectful. When asked why he wouldn’t tell me to my face, I was told, "He doesn’t work that way," so while it was sad because I was gonna miss a lot of people there and also the fun I had at the shows, Rob’s sh*t was really getting to me. Q: After leaving XPW, you worked the pro wrestling circuit in So-Cal for a number of feds. What are some of your favorite memories of working the indy circuit after leaving XPW? A: Having Desire kick my ass in the battle royal was fun. The problem is this – everyone saw my matches in XPW and figured that’s how I really am,. 80% of the mess-ups were planned because being the idiot ring crew guy I was, I had to suck. Bookers saw this as me really s*cking, and whenever I tried to get booked somewhere, it was either just in a battle royal. Or, I would hear, “Get some training,” or “Have you been trained yet?” After awhile of that, I just said, “Screw it.” So, I wasn’t around long enough for many great memories. However, getting to work on the same shows as some of my good friends like Scorpio Sky, Quicksilver, Suppa Bad, and a few others was really nice. I do miss it (XPW), though. Q: Do you think that XPW got more heat by the Internet than it deserved? Or do you think it was warranted, based on the HeatWave incident, the New Years Revolution II surprise (or lack thereof), The Sandman's false retirement, etc.? A: I believe the heat towards XPW was at an appropriate level. It got the name out there, but too much of it may have hurt them in the long run. It insulted the fans who were expecting something big, and sadly things would fall through and a backup plan would have to go into effect. Q: What are your thoughts on Rob Black and Lizzy Borden's recent legal problems? What do you think should happen to them? Do you agree with the idea of prosecuting a company based on speculation that they may be too over the top in what they film? A: I rarely watch their pornos, and so I cannot comment. I know too little of the situation to truly have an opinion. I wouldn’t mind if Rob rotted in jail, but Lizzy was very caring and sweet, so I’m kind of conflicted there. Q: What memorable stories do you have from XPW? A: I have had many a story while working with XPW. First thing that comes to mind is how quickly I Leonard about some people in the business. What I learned for the most part was good, but there were a few instances where I wish I could be ignorant to the situation. I remember at one of the shows at the [Hollywood] Palace, after the show I saw Tammy Sytch and Chris Candido snorting something in the bathroom, and the show after that me and another ring crew member had to carry her to the ring because she was so messed up. It kinda’ hurt because she had been one of my favorite managers for a long time, and just seeing her in that shape was kinda’ hard on me. Second off the top of my head was that backstage, Abdullah the Butcher was a very nice man. Him and Sabu had said to break them up before they hit each other. They would hit one or two of us (the ring crew members) and then they would separate. However, out in the ring, they beat the sh*t out of us. For awhile there, Abby just beat the sh*t out of me because I was the only one still going after him. He brought out [Homeless] Jimmy’s shopping cart and hit me with nearly everything in it for a while. It was awesome, even though I was hurting the next day. I remember one time after a show, a lot of us went to the local Denny’s – ring crew at one table, some of the workers at another. After the food, was ordered, Sabu passed out onto the table. One of the refs there tried giving him a three count jokingly, but Sabu didn’t budge, so after everyone finished eating, the Russian dog picked him up and carried him back to the car. There is a lot more, but I gotta’ keep some things to myself. Q: What is your opinion about the following people? How did they treat you? How did you like them? Rob Black: Treated me like sh*t. I wonder if he thought my name was “@$$hole,” “C*cksmoker,” “Fag,” etc. While I wish no harm on him, I wouldn’t piss on him to put a fire out. *Lizzy Borden: Very sweet and nice woman. She was always nice to me and she was very fun to talk to. I miss hanging out with her. *Kevin Kleinrock: Very smart man. He made things happen in XPW. If he was the one with the money, I believe XPW would be alive and better than ever. Kevin was a very nice guy, too. He treated me very respectful and like a friend. Leroy the Ring Crew Guy is one of several former-XPW wrestlers and employees who have agreed to contribute to an upcoming retrospective I'm doing on XPW's history. The full preview can be read below. From 1999 until 2003, Southern California's Xtreme Professional Wrestling produced possibly the most avid debate the world of United States indy wrestling has witnessed in recent years. It all started with a pornography mogul named Rob Black and his associate, Tom Byron. Along the way, names such as Sabu, The Sandman, Shane Douglas, Chris Candido, Jerry Lynn, and Abdullah the Butcher made their presences known in XPW rings. At one point, XPW possessed a nationwide TV deal (via satellite) with America One and its home videos were distributed across the country even before those of ECW were. Even with all of these advantages, however, XPW eventually shut down, but not even it's bankruptcy has curtailed the mutterings about it. In the next half a year, learn about the formation, the rise, and the ultimate fall of a promotion that at one point had everything going for it. You've heard the utterings about Rob Black's association with ECW's Paul Heyman, but for all intensive purposes, it was all the way back in 1989 when the true roots of XPW began to take shape. Even before the XPW name was concepted, what could be considered precursors of the promotion existed, including: Verne Langdon's Slammers Wrestling Federation (Slammers/SWF); Dynamite D, Kevin Kleinrock, and Patrick Hernandez' Southern California Championship Wrestling (SCCW); and Doc Marlee's United Independent Wrestling Alliance (UIWA). Long before they were appearing across the United States on XPW home video, XPW's homegrown names were crafting their ability on the So-Cal independent circuit. Exactly one-third of the competitor's who performed on XPW's debut live event back in July 1999 credit their initial training to a man named Verne Langdon. Trained by The Fabulous Moolah and Tor Johnson many years ago, Langdon enjoyed a number of occupations before entering the world of pro wrestling. At one point, he was a highly acclaimed sculptor of monster masks, and is still regarded as one of the most celebrated "monster-makers" - as the occupation is termed - to this day. Monster-making also led to some exploration into the field of the makeup artistry. Langdon was also a very talented magician and magician, but wrestling was certainly one of his hobbies. So, in 1989, he established the "SLAM U" Wrestling Gym in Southern California and, two years later, the Slammers Wrestling Federation. Langdon is one of several names who've agreed to contribute both historical information and textual quotations to this retrospective. Other contributees will include XPW homegrown veterans such as GQ Money, Leroy The Ring Crew Guy, "White Trash" Johnny Webb, Carlito Montana, Steve Rizzono, and several others. Mainstream wrestlers who've competed for the company, such as Chris Hamrick and Mike Modest, will also speak about their time in XPW. As of now, there are a number of other former-XPW wrestlers and employees being contacted, and in the coming weeks and months, more names will be announced as playing a role in this retrospective. From the beginnings of Rob Black to his friendship with ECW's Paul Heyman, from the formation of XPW to the signings of stars such as Sabu, Shane Douglas, and Chris Candido, from the interpromotional agreements with ECW and FMW to the TV deals with America One, KJLA, and WGTW, from the creations of indy stars like The Messiah, "The Rock Superstar" Kaos, and "The Hardcore Homo" Angel to the controversies of Supreme's injury, Vic Grimes' 40 foot fall, and the New Year's Revolution 2 scandal, from the invasion of Philadelphia to the eventual folding - it, and so much more, will all be presented in "Five Years Later - The Roots, The History, and The Controversy of Xtreme Pro Wrestling." Featuring-insightful contributions from XPW alumni such as GQ Money, Leroy The Ring Crew Guy, Carlito Montana, and "White Trash" Johnny Webb, along with words from Verne Langdon, who helped break The Messiah, Johnny Webb, Homeless Jimmy, Angel, Damien Steele, Dynamite D, Carlito Montana, and others into the business. Plus - NEVER-BEFORE-SEEN, pre-XPW photos (straight from the Slammers Wrestling Federation's archives) of the XPW stars such as The Messiah, Johnny Webb, Kaos, Homeless Jimmy, Supreme, and Angel; and a great deal more. In the next few weeks, you can expect part five of my extensive shoot interview with GQ Money.

    Need some help...

    Uh, actually, his web site has plenty of transcripts from his TNA matches. I've been using that site every week for the last few months in working on an article on the Raven vs. Sabu feud that I'll finally be posting in the next few days. The transcripts aren't in the Interviews or Transcripts section. You have to go into the results section of the site and almost every promo he did is transcribed. I've been using those all the time as of late because I don't get TNA. RavenEffect.com>Results>Year of Choice>Month of show you want the promo of. And look no further than that.
