Well this is something you don't hear about everyday. That girl looks like a legitimate headcase.

Good luck to John Tenta.

The Hart Foundation and The Heenan Family. Two simple name that say what they have to say.

Agreed with that. Weird Al is a great entertainer.

20 years old, from Montreal, Québec.

I love Duprée. He may not be the greatest wrestler, but he can hold his own. He knows enought to stay entertaining in the ring. The Dance rule, his charisma is excellent and like someone said, it takes a lot of it to make a overused gimmick work. Sure, I think that Fifi is cool, but I'm not sure it really helps him. But yeah, Duprée is great.

I know what Pearl Harbor is historically. The fact is that I'm from Montreal, Quebec, and only spoke french until the mid-90s. Vince, Lawler and JR never used the term, so I was wondering NOW what the term means in wrestling. I watched wrestling in english back then, but couldn't catch the commentaries. That also explain some of my syntax mistakes. Oh good, I thought you were one of those "I've been a fan for a year" people. But judging from or signature, ou've wtched some dark day WWF. But if you ask what a Pillmanizer is....::shakes fist in anger:: Nah, that I was old enough to understand english. I've been watching since Wrestlemania 3, but I never fully understood the announcers. I've seen a LOT of WWF over the past 17 years.

Recently, I catched two wrestling recaps that said "Wrestler X pearl harbors Wrestler Y". What is "Pearl Harboring" your opponent?

Wrestlemania 3. Hogan vs Andre The Giant. I live in Montreal, Quebec, so my father kept telling me stories of Andre in Grand Prix Wrestling, dominating his opponents... He thought it was a good occasion to show me what Andre was like. I was hooked.

I always loved the Spaghetti and meatballs kid.

Logical. I should have catched the reference. BTW, Ben Affleck sucked in that movie.

Indeed. *Puts hand on heart and sings "O Canada"*

You're right. I guess Coach managing someone is the only way to finish this without Coach stinking up the ring.

The two cards looked great. Some good booking on your part. Keep it up.

Hi everybody, and welcome to this first installment of "Ringside Tickets". Probably the lamest name you'll ever find for a column, but a friend of mine suggested it when he saw my match reviews. He said I should try to get it seen by more people. When I asked for a column name, he came up with this, saying that my reviews made the reader feel like he was watching the match from up-close. I guess that's a compliment, but I still find the name a bit weird. You tell me if I should kick that guy in the nads or not. I'll try to write these match reviews about once a week. I know that other people do that around here, but some posters at other forums told me mines were different. They said they were "special". Since the Eugene character is also supposed to be "special", I'll try to guess if that is a good thing or not. Anyway, that'll change me from the usual columns I write for TPWW.net. That site is barely updated anymore. Kinda cuts the inspiration a bit. Let's go to our match for today... Wrestlemania 3 Intercontinental Championship match : Macho Man Randy Savage vs Ricky Steamboat We start with Macho Man walking around the ring and a shot of Miss Elizabeth's ass while she is stepping between the ropes. I used to mark out for her. 8-) Macho is wearing his classic pink speedo tonight, quite sexy, and Steamboat has white pants. And we start. The ref takes the belt and Macho takes off the bandana. His big-ass glasses were just cool, and they are now fashionable again these days. At least I think I saw glasses like that in a rap video. Steamboat makes some weird signs playing to the crowd, which gets a pop. He was hot, that's for sure. Why they would make him a fire-breathing character is beyond me. And the ref rings the bell. THE MATCH IS UNDERWAY. Macho is stretching and Elizabeth finally gets out of the ring. Macho fakes an attack and Steamboat backs off, and Savage laughs in an evil manner. They grapple and Randy goes in a behind Ricky with a waistlock. Steamboat armdrags him and they hit what JHawk calls "The Indy Applause Stance" to a pop. Ricky looks like Karate Kid's Daniel san with that martial art pose. The ref checks both of them and Macho Man runs past Steamboat right to the outside. He escorts Elizabeth to...the other side of the ring. Steamboat thinks it's a waste of time and can't wait to jump Savage. Back inside, they grapple again. Oh yeah, I forgot, George The Animal Steele is at ringside in Ricky's corner. He was hairier than A-Train and didn't get any "Shave your back" chants. Fans are cruel today. Macho punches Steamboat in the stomach and irish whips him by the hair. What a cheater! Steamboat, back from the ropes, armdrags Savage from a attempted shoulder block as I notice from the first time that yellow doesn't match well with pink. Macho sure had strange tastes. That and the pink dress of Elizabeth, that made for a strange couple....Anyway, Savage gets up, goes after Ricky who slides behind his legs and hits a third armdrag since the start of this match. Steamboat lifts Savage by the throat for a good five seconds and chokes him. He's playing DIRTAY! Savage gets out from the ring and cries to Elizabeth. Steamboat chases him and Savage enters the ring, followed by Ricky. Macho drops the fists on Steamboat who springs back up, but looks blinded. Savage grabs the pained Steamboat and kicks him in the stomach. Hey look, Randy had hair all over his head back in the days. He grabs Steamboat and choke him on the third rope, then pull the ropes back like a slingshot. HEELNESS!! He goes for a quick pin, but only gets one. A bionic elbow sends the Dragon in the corner. Savage rakes the eyes until the ref gets him away. He walks right around the ring, runs into Steamboat who sidesteps and then hit ringposts. Steamboat with an armbar, lift Savage and slams him down, still holding the armbar. He goes on the apron, armbreaker on the third rope! These simple moves are not used by anybody now. Simple, yet effective. Steamboat works the arm some more with punches and does another armwrench. Punches on the elbow a couple of times, but Macho whips Ricky in the ropes and makes him eat elbow. Savage is selling the arm pretty well. And I still can't believe Savage put pink tights with yellow pads. I used to find that soooooooo cool. Savage sends Ricky over the top, laying on the floor. Steele is watching the scene and wants to interfere. Steamboats wants to get back in, but Savage kicks him. He was such a good heel, that was wonderful. Savage pulls Steamboat by the hair, up on the apron and gives him an elbow shot right in the throat. I froze the video to write this and Steamboat looks like he is taking a crap on the second rope. This has nothing to do with this recap, I know. But he really looks like it. Savage is still selling the arm. He kicks Ricky some more, sending him back down on the floor. Ricky lays motionless, and Liz looks on. Savage pulls him by the hair and snapmares him over the ropes. A quick pin gets 2. Savage kneedrops Ricky for another two. Macho tries to smash the Dragon in the turnbuckle, but he blocks and gets smashed instead. A couple of punches by Steamboat...A chop sends Savage into the ropes, and he gets his arms caught in the classic crucifying position. Steamboat takes the opportunity and punches him. Savage kicks Ricky and free himself. Savage whips Steamboat and Steamboat actually botches the cross body block for two. Another armdrag, right into a whip, into a Steamboat shoulder block for two. Another shoulder block for two. Savage gets up, whips Ricky backward and plants a knee in his back. Both men are agonizing, and Savage sends Dragon over the top. He hangs on, comes back in, but Macho sees it and clothesline him back out. Sweet, sweet heel tricks by Macho Man. Steamboat is out again, and Steele helps him to his feet. Savage goes after them and knee lifts Steamboat into the crowd. He gets back in and waits for the count-out. Steele helps Steamboat into the ring. Macho grabs him and just toss him back out. Savage climbs to the top, and it's a high-flying double axe handle to the outside!! Steamboat rolls around in pain as Savage just gets inside. Holy shit, there are actually stars on Savage's speedo too. I used to think THAT is cool? Oh well, it is in a 80's kind of way. Just like Mr.T. and the mullet. The Dragon is back inside, and Savage does another top-rope axe handle. Savage runs into the ropes and elbows Steamboat for two. Savage lifts Steamboat, runs over the top and guillotine him on the ropes, then get back in for a quick two count. Savage is pissed, and here's the atomic drop for another kick-out. A suplex gets ANOTHER two count, and now he's desperate. Ricky retaliates with chops and punches, but Macho, like a good heel, stops the attack with an eyerake. A gutwrench suplex gets a two count, and Steamboat is fighting back again...forget it, thumb in the eye by Savage. 8-) The Dragon flips over a back suplex, then chops away at Macho!! Irish whip, but he telegraph the back body drop and Savage kicks him. Savage runs at Steamboat, BACK BODY DROP TO THE OUTSIDE!! Steamboat gets to the outside and brings Savage inside. On the top...TOMAHAWK CHOP!! Or Ready to Rumble fans can call that "The Crowning". If there are any. Steamboat pins Randy, who puts his feet on the rope at the last second! This match is picking up in pace, and I like it! A zoom on the pink ass of Savage as he is whiped into the ropes. A running chop, cover, one, two, no! Savage kicks out again. A couple of chops to the head, Savage rolls outside. Steamboat chases him back inside, shoulder blocks him between the ropes for a sunset flip off the apron! Savage holds on to the ropes, but falls back for a kick out at two. Savage tries a clothesline, ducked by Ricky for a school boy and another two count. The crowd is crazy for every pin attempt. Steamboat trips Macho and flips over him for ANOTHER two count! BAH GAWD SAVAGE IS THE DEVIL HIMSELF!! HE CANNOT BE PINNED FOLKS! Small package for Steamboat gets another two. Bodyslam, Steamboat grabs the legs and catapult Savage in the turnbuckle. That catapult was weak, I have to admit, but the crowd was totally pumped anyway, so who cares? Savage walks into a roll-up for another two count. He tries another clothesline, but Ricky runs him into the ropes and flips him back into a two-count, reversed by Savage's own roll-up for two. Punches by Ricky, but Macho grabs him by the tights and rams him into the ring post, shoulder first. Steamboat doesn't move, and Macho brings him back in. Steamboat reverses an irish whip, reversed again by Macho, RIGHT INTO THE REF!! Boy, I make things look exciting! I bet I could make the Brooklyn Brawler look good on paper. The ref is now out, and Savage clothelines Steamboat. He heads for the top, signals for his big move AND HIT THE FLYING ELBOW SMASH RIGHT ON THE SPOT!! FLYING ELBOW! FLYING ELBOW! Of course, the ref is not there to count the pinfall. Savage heads outside and grabs the ringbell from the timekeeper, and Steele looks angry. He grabs the bell as Savage was going on top and runs away. Savage just kicks him in the back of the head and heads for the top again with the bell. Steele gets up and pushes Savage to the canvas! Nice flip by the way. Savage still manages to get up before Steamboat, who was still selling the elbow smash. Savage lifts Steamboat in a bodyslam, Ricky counters with a roll-up. 1,2,3!! RICKY STEAMBOAT WINS THE INTERCONTINENTAL TITLE!! The crowd is crazy, and Savage is pissed. Elizabeth is smiling? What? That is strange. Steele gets in the ring to celebrate, takes Steamboat on his shoulders and put him in that cool ring-like vehicule they had at the time. Rating the match Let's see. The storyline leading to this match was incredible, consisting of Savage injuring the throat of Steamboat. This lead to a great battle over the Intercontinental Title. The storyline is simple yet effective. I would just love simple storylines like that in today's wrestling. Sure, you see that sometimes, but it's pretty occasional. The psychology was just great. Savage kept selling the arm for the duration of the match, which adds to the realism. He also played his heel role like a pro, which he is. Steamboat looked like he was in pain, and he made people cheer each time he tried a comeback. You can't argue with the popularity of that guy at the time. This made for a really great match. The match itself was solid. Some basic wrestling moves, both wrestlers gradually pulling out bigger spots, and the ending came out of nowhere, adding to the surprise. Fans at the time just wanted to see Savage lose for what he did, and for a moment, it looked like he would not. That just made the reaction even better. What can I say? The atmosphere, the talent involved...Everything was just great. This match is a REAL classic, a match that should be a required viewing for every wrestling fan. On the snowflake scale, I give it a *****. On the entertainment scale, I'll just say "See it now if you never watched it. Watch it again RIGHT NOW if you already did". I hope you liked the review. I'll probably review my favorite match EVER for the next one. Bret vs Owen from Wrestlemania X. Thank you for reading!

*Puts on Joaquin Phoenix's helmet from "Signs"*

The only one that makes sense is La Résistance, now from Montreal. At least Grenier is really from there.

Wrestlecrap was on fire this week on the comedy side. The JOTW section was funny too.

I would have liked Angle as a manager to Charlie Haas like somebody said. I think it could make him look special. I would have put Regal in the GM position. He is gold in authority roles. Okay, I know he was a RAW talent before his illness, but nobody would remember anyway.

William Reagl & Nick Dinsmore = Good thing Nick Dinsmore as Eugene = Bad thing

I started this game a while ago. I am already a couple of months in, but I thought that I could still post the diary of it here if I gave a little back story. I started KPW with 30 of my favorite wrestlers, not considering talent or age. That means that it is normal to see Jim Neidhart and King Kong Bundy in here. The other wrestlers were signed during the first few months. Let's start by giving the roster. Main Eventers Kurt Angle(f) Rey Mysterio(f) Ultimo Dragon(f) w/Roddy Piper as manager Chris Jericho(h) Eddie Guerrero(h) Upper Midcarders Chavo Guerrero(f) Chris Benoit(f) Goldust(f) Paul London(f) Rob Van Dam(f) AJ Styles(h) Christian(h) Christopher Daniels(h) Lance Storm(h) Matt Hardy(h) Randy Orton(h) Taka Michinoku(h) Vader(h) Midcarders Hurricane(f) Jacques Rougeau(f) Jerry Lynn(f) Jimmy Rave(f) Ken Shamrock(f) La Parka(f) Perry Saturn(f) Raymond Rougeau(f) Sabu(f) Scotty 2 Hotty(f) Shark Boy(f) Tajiri(f) Carl Ouelette(h) Charlie Haas(h) Glenn Gilberti(h) Jamie Noble(h) Juvi Guerrera(h) Kid Kash(h) Low Ki(h) Marc Mero(h) Mike Sanders(h) Norman Smiley(h) Raven(h) René Duprée(h) Ron Killings(h) Shelton Benjamin(h) Sonny Siaki(h) Super Crazy(h) Sylvain Grenier(h) Lower Midcarders Colt Cabana(f) Devon Storm(f) D'Lo Brown(f) Frankie Kazarian(f) Chris Nowinski(h) Christian York(h) Jim Neidhart(h) Julio Dinero(h) King Kong Bundy(h) Nunzio(h) Psychosis(h) Shannon Moore(h) Developmental Wrestlers Abunai Beef Wellington Chris Sabin CM Punk Hardcore Homo Angel Jason Cross Joey Matthews Rob Conway Scoot Andrews Silver King Xavier Tag Teams Coolest Mexicans Alive(La Parka & Psychosis) Heelness(Raven & Chris Nowinski) Japanese Ts(Tajiri & Taka) Ki's Security Staff(Jim Neidhart & King Kong Bundy) La Résistance(René Duprée & Sylvain Grenier) Matt's Bitches(Christian York & Shannon Moore) The Quebecers(Carl Ouelette & Jacques Rougeau) Truly Great(Ron Killings & Shelton Benjamin) Champions World Champion: Rey Mysterio IC Champion: Ultimo Dragon TV Champion: Paul London X Champion: Jerry Lynn Whole F'N Champion: Rob Van Dam Tag Champions: Coolest Mexicans Alive I need to explain something. Yes, my tag team names are lame. I have absolutely no inspiration whatsoever. Also, the "Whole F'N" Championship is a gimmick championship. It's a cheap belt with some tin foil thrown on it. Nobody in the game wants the damn belt, and when they win it, the wrestler usually changes the name of the belt. It started as Christian's "Peep's Title", then became Storm's "Maple Leaf Title", then Sabu's "Arabian Title" and so on. You get the deal. I also used to have some other tag teams, but Charlie Haas, Raymond Rougeau and Jamie Noble are all injured. Super Crazy is in rehab. Finally, I named all my pay-per-views with song titles that I liked. Mostly Bad Religion & Offspring stuff. Last month was "KPW Struck A Nerve". This month will be "KPW Dirty Magic". It makes no sense from a wrestling point of view, but my weekly shows are named "Mope", "Smash" and "Session", so it's not like it mattered. Finally, I will mostly post outlines of my shows. No full descriptions. This is the format at used at some other forum, and people liked it. With that, I will say good read.

It's time once again for the greatest B-Show on Earth... KPW Sunday Night Session I'm pretty sure you are all drooling in anticipation of what you might see on this show. I don't want to disapoint you, but it's a B-Show, you know? Bryan Danielson defeats Sonny Siaki with a Cattle Mutilation(Thank you for the help). Nothing of note happened. More like a training match for Danielson. **1/4, 73% A video package hypes the feud between Perry Saturn and Low Ki. By the way, in the game, Low Ki married my still-non-existing daughter, and he now has Creative Control. 75% Raven defeats Psychosis in a good match. Probably the best I'll ever get on Session. ***, 80% We now have a 20-men Battle Royal for the right to cut a promo on Monday Night Mope. In the end, it's down to our new Face worker Sylvain Grenier, Hurricane, Shark Boy and Nunzio. Grenier dumps Sharky, Hurricane dumps Grenier and Nunzio dumps Hurricane. Let's give a big "HURRAY!" to Nunzio. *, 69% In the surprise of the evening, Kid Kash defeats Colt Cabana in THE best match ever on Session, one-upping Raven and Psychosis. ****1/2, 95% Matt's Bitches(Moore and York) defeat Frankie Kazarian and Mike Sanders with a Bitch Maker. I don't know what it is, but it sounded cool a couple of months ago. **1/4, 72% René Duprée gets his first solo victory when he beats Christopher Nowinski with a Figure Four Leglock. Old school baby. **, 72% Jimmy Rave retained his "King of the B-Show" title by defeating Glenn Gilberti via submission. Maybe I'll bring back Disco Inferno. **, 73% End of the show. In more exciting news, La Parka apparently blasted my promotion on a Radio Show. I ignored it, but I smell something better... ~PUNISHMENT GIMMICK!~ I'll try to think of something. Finally, I'll try to post some of the columns I used to write back at Whacked Out Wrestling. They are single match review, but with deep play-by-play to look at classics or good matches. I try to make the readers realize why the match sucked or ruled, and the wOw readers appreciated back in the day. That was before the second incarnation of the board, however. That'll change me from writing "Creative Control" and "Worst Wrestling Ever". I just hope you will appreciate. If you don't, well... I won't do a lot of thing if you don't.

TPWW.net and my forum.

Actually, several gimmick I used in EWR could work in WWE. -Triple H thinking he REALLY is God(Trying to shoot lightning off his hands) -A dark character stuffing rubber chickens in his opponent's trunks as his symbol(Gave it to Papa Shango) -Kurt Angle as an over the top French Sympathizer -Someone who claims to be a Kung-fu fighting Disciple of Jesus -The real Dr.Death(Gimmicked open-heart operations in the middle of the ring with gimmicked blood and all) -Somethin to appeal to children with cross over promotion: A pokémon master gimmick -Roddy Piper, Jimmy Snuka, The Ultimate Warrior and Jake Roberts as a University debating team -The Big Show as a shooter in training.(Actually I gave that one to Giant Gonzales, but Big Show would probably be funnier) I can't think of any more.
