Please God, don't let him try to play guitar............ I never thought I'd say this, but since he, Duff and Slash all worked together trying to stop the Greatest Hits......... Reunion? Please?

Jim Morrison singing the Soft Parade........ "All our lives we sweat and save Building for a shallow grave" "Can you give me sanctuary I must find a place to hide A place for me to hide Can you find me soft asylum I can't make it anymore The man is at the door" Always touching to listen to, for me at least.

I think he's got his thumb up that kid's ass............

They did it to Scott Hall.

Off the top of my head "Can you take me higher/To a place where blind men see/Can you take me higher/To a place of golden streams" So, he wants to go to a place with rivers of piss?

Probably either Guns N Roses "Rocket Queen" or "Estranged". Maybe "LA Woman" by the Doors too.

Let's not forget Airheads. Also, Freddy Got Fingered.

Interesting. Where did you hear this? I read something similar on the Wrestling Classics messageboard. Faarooq never came across as a druggie either. Probably pain killers........years of bumps will do that to you.

3PW Saturday March 20, 2004 8PM Viking Hall (Swanson and Ritner Streets-next to Forman Mills) (866) 228-0326 [email protected] News3pw@hotmail www.3PWrestling.com In the MAIN EVENT: JOEY MATTHEWS gets his shot at RAVEN... for the 3PW CHAMPIONSHIP! Joey Matthews has always had the potential for greatness. Whether he was being selected as a developmental talent at a relatively young age... being one-half of a tag team poised to dominate ECW just before it's sudden demise...even forming his own clique of "minions" in 3PW, glory has always been just within reach, but never a priority. Matthews was always too busy stroking his own ego or insulting Philly fans to truly get serious about his own career.... that is, until November 22nd, 2003. On that night, Raven made his first appearance as 3PW Commissioner, and almost immediately ordered Matthews into a match with one of most hard-hitting athletes in wrestling today, Low-Ki. With no escape and no time to prepare, a funny thing happened... Joey Matthews held his own, and came very close to getting a win. Even in defeat, a fire was lit within Joey, as he finally realized that he had the ability to be a top player, and set out on a mission to prove himself. First, he figured out a way to defeat Low-Ki and Ruckus in a three-way dance. Next, he got a clean victory over "The Phenomonal" AJ Styles. Finally, he beat the odds to win a #1 contender's match and earn himself this upcoming title shot, despite Raven's attempts to halt his progress. Raven, meanwhile, has been having the time of his life since weaseling his way into the commissionary position here in 3PW. Using and abusing his power at will, Raven has not only used his authority to win the 3PW title, but has since turned Pro-Pain Pro into his own personal playground. He teased, taunted and tormented The Sandman for months, survived the challenge of "Pitbull" Gary Wolfe (all with the help of his appointed flunky, JACK VICTORY), and has now turned his attention to Matthews, even openly stacking the odds against him last month by adding Sabu to the Matthews/Jerry Lynn #1 contender's match. Raven is publicly taking the challenger lightly, but his actions reek of desperation, and indicate that the champion may believe that his days on top just might be numbered. This is, after all, a very different Joey Matthews that will step into the ring on March 20th. The old Matthews cowered like a frightened child in the face of Raven upon his arrival. The new one stood up to him in February, man to man. He has found a way to overcome every tremendous grappler in his path en route to challenging for the richest prize in 3PW. Raven has found a way to dispose of every challenger en route to defending it. On March 20th, 2004, will Raven finally figure out "The Future" and put an end to his ultimate dream? Or will Joey Matthews find a way to finally realize his potential....perhaps even his destiny? DIVIDED WE STAND, UNITED WE BRAWL: SABU teams up with ROADKILL to face the team of JERRY LYNN and LOW-KI! At our last event, the scheduled "Collision of the Cult Heroes" never happened, as travel difficulties prevented Roadkill from appearing to face Sabu. In response, the warped 3PW Commissioner Raven has scheduled these two volatile competitors to be in the ring together once again... as partners! Now, for the first time ever, the Amish Super heavyweight Sheep Lover and the homicidal, suicidal, genocidal maniac from Bombay must find a way to coexist, as they take on Jerry Lynn and Low-Ki, who will be making his return to 3PW after several months of international touring. Four very different, yet equally popular competitors, with no particular love for their opponents OR partners, will take to the ring on March 20th, and no matter who wins, it's a sure bet that all hell will break loose! Return Grudge Match: RUCKUS once again goes up against DAMIAN ADAMS! For over a year, Damian Adams has done everything in his power to make a name for himself in 3PW. He improved his physical conditioning: noone seemed to notice. He got new tights: fans couldn't care less. It wasn't until his huge upset victory over "Pitbull" Gary Wolfe that Adams began to finally earn some attention. In January, Adams looked to kick off 2004 with a big win over the gravity defying phenom known as Ruckus. Unfortunately, after a tremendously competitive encounter, it was Ruckus who had his hand raised in victory. Suddenly, the frustration that Adams thought he had left behind was slowly creeping their way back into his psyche. In February, during the Adams-Ruckus rematch, Adams absolutely snapped, grabbing the microphone and denouncing any desire to please anyone but himself from then on. Suddenly, the clean wrestling match everyone had anticipated had degenerated into an all-out war, with both men simultaneously falling from the top turnbuckle they were fighting on and plummeting through separate tables at ringside. Both men had to be pulled from the battlefield and taken to a nearby hospital. Now, Ruckus wants revenge, and the "new" Damian Adams wants to finally get a win over the popular foe that represents everything he USED to be. Who will win? More importantly, who will survive? INTERNATIONAL FLIGHT! DEREK WYLDE takes on MIKEY BATTS At our Second Anniversary event in February; history was made, as 3PW hosted an amazing NWA-Florida X-Division title match between Roderick Strong and Mikey Batts. Although the younger Batts failed to win the championship, he certainly turned a lot of heads with his incredible quickness and high-flying ability. Now, the cousin of Billy Kidman returns to Viking Hall to take on 3PW's OTHER young high-flying Canadian sensation, "Dangerboy" Derek Wylde. Wylde is coming off of his first big win in 3PW last month, and will look to add to his "W" column once again. On March 20th, two men will take to the air... who will soar higher than ever, and who is in for a crash landing? ROB ECKOS calls out STRIKER! Last month, "HOT STUFF"... sorry, "MACHO MAN" Matt Striker made his return to 3PW in grand fashion, rescuing the now-former slave girl TALIA from the clutches of "Sugar Daddy" Tod Gordon and Jasmine St. Clair. Now, sources say that ROB ECKOS is demanding that Striker confront him face-to-face on March 20th. Since being united under the tutelage of Joey Matthews, it's no secret that Eckos has become increasingly frustrated with Striker's lack of focus. Now, with Matthew's loosening the reigns on his former "training", will the, um, "Minion-powers" explode on March 20th? Meanwhile, "Sugar Daddy" TOD GORDON and JASMIN ST. CLAIRE may have been stripped of their sex slave AND their pride last month, but nevertheless they WILL return on March 20th with another edition of the "SUGAR SHACK". No doubt, these two have a LOT on their mind, and with a live microphone and no censors, who knows what they will say or do on the 20th? Plus... the PHILLY DEBUT of "THE AMAZING" N8 MATSON! You've heard the name. You've seen the tapes. Now, be there LIVE as N8 Matson FINALLY makes his way to the wrestling capitol of the world. Hailing from Detroit, MI, this eight year veteran has dominated the Michigan area and beyond for a good while now, especially in various junior heavyweight divisions. Competing frequently on both sides of the Canadian border, the man who trained the likes of Chris Sabin, Gabriel Brimstone and many others looks to make a name for himself all over again, this time in 3PW! ALSO ANNOUNCED: "Pitbull" Gary Wolf, The Blue Meanie, Rockin' Rebel, Jack Victory, CJ O' Doyle, Ron Zombie, Ricky Vega and more

They had just added the return of Gorgeous George, and CJ O Doyle vs. N8 Matson too. That kid (O Doyle) is going right to the top. Damn it, I guess to get my wrestling fix I will hit up a World One Wrestling show, or whatever Corino's league is called now. They have a show in the area on the 10th of April.

I guess they were wondering how they could pay Ron back for 8 years of loyal service...........

The show originally scheduled for 3/20/04 is postponed now. From wrestlingclassics.com's messageboard......... Since Brian's undoubtedly a bit busy at the moment contacting talent...I'll post this on 3PW's behalf: 3PW Owner Jasmin St. Claire underwent an emergency appendectomy surgery this morning. Therefore, due to the situation, the 3PW show has been postponed until April 17th. All tickets for the 3PW show this Saturday will be honored on April 17. 3PW apologizes for the inconvienence.

I find it interesting that Duff and Slash backed him up since they are on such awful terms. Guns N' Roses Files Lawsuit Monday March 15, 11:14 am ET NEW YORK--(BUSINESS WIRE)--March 15, 2004--GUNS N' ROSES have filed a lawsuit against Geffen Records, a division of UMG Recordings, Inc., to stop the unauthorized release of a Greatest Hits package by the band. The lawsuit seeks a temporary restraining order and preliminary injunction against this unauthorized release and was filed in U.S. District Court in Los Angeles. The band has not been given the opportunity to approve the choice of songs, the artwork, the release date or the re-mastering done on the tracks included on this compilation. GUNS N' ROSES have sold over 80,000,000 albums worldwide - almost 40,000,000 in the US alone - and founding member W. Axl Rose is concerned that not only will their audience be misled into believing that the planned compilation is an authorized release, but that it will hinder the release of the band's long awaited new studio album CHINESE DEMOCRACY. There has been a massive outcry among the band's loyal audience against the Greatest Hits record, as they too believe the track selection is fundamentally flawed, does not reflect the band's best work and is clearly not the ultimate package that would be selected by the band or their fan base if they were given the opportunity. They have flooded the offices of Geffen Records' senior executives with thousands of emails over the last few weeks expressing their dissent. W. Axl Rose is joined by former band members Slash and Duff McKagan in bringing the action against Geffen Records. LOS ANGELES (Reuters) - A federal judge on Monday cleared the way for Geffen Records to release a greatest-hits album next week from the rock band Guns N' Roses over the objection of its lead singer, Axl Rose. Rose sued Geffen, a unit of Universal Music Group under Vivendi Universal, seeking to prevent the best-of collection from being released, claiming he was not consulted on the choice or remixing of material for the album. He was joined as a plaintiff in the suit, filed last Friday, by two band members from the original lineup -- guitarist Slash and bassist Duff McKagan -- even though their rights to the Guns N' Roses name was signed over to Rose years ago when they left the group. But U.S. District Judge Dale Fischer denied their request for a temporary restraining order, allowing Geffen to issue the album as planned next Tuesday. A hearing on a motion for a preliminary injunction was set for next month. "Their lawsuit is meritless," Universal Music spokesman Peter LoFrumento said. "Fortunately, since the court has denied their application for a temporary restraining order, the album will be released as scheduled on March 23." According to the lawsuit, Rose objected to the selection of songs for the compilation album, the timing of its release, the album's artwork and the re-mastering of the original tapes. The album features 14 tracks in all and eight of Guns N' Roses' hit singles, including "Welcome to the Jungle, "Paradise City" and "Sweet Child O' Mine" from the mega-selling 1987 album "Appetite for Destruction." The group's last studio album, "The Spaghetti Incident?," was issued in 1993. A 2002 MTV appearance by a reconstituted Guns N' Roses, with Rose as the lone member from the band's heyday, helped spark interest in the group's new lineup, but a subsequent U.S. tour was cut short. The suit, which accuses Geffen of trademark infringement and breach of contract, says the label is barred under its contract with Guns N' Roses from altering its master recordings without the band's permission. A statement from Rose's manager added that the greatest-hits set "will hinder the release of the band's long-awaited new studio album, 'Chinese Democracy."' Geffen officials had no further comment on the dispute. But a source familiar with the situation said the label has been waiting seven years for Rose to deliver "Chinese Democracy" and has poured $13 million into production of that album after repeated promises that he was about to finish the project. "Every year there's been a new reason why Axl is not done with the record," the source told Reuters, adding that Geffen went ahead with the greatest-hits package only because Rose failed to come through with "Chinese Democracy." "Had he delivered this record like he promised seven years ago, this would not be happening right now." A representative for Rose was not immediately available for comment.

Eh, when was Rock In Lisbon announced? If it was announced after Bucket already quit, then everything should be alright, and Axl should be there as planned. But I doubt it.

UUUUUUGGGGGGHHHHHH It's been St. Patty's Day for hours, and I'm still not drunk yet!

Damn, $13 million? Are there any albums ever that have cost that much? Ever heard of a guy named Michael Jackson? Please don't compare the two. There's already the obvious plastic surgery jokes for both of em.

Damn, $13 million? Are there any albums ever that have cost that much? Is it even possible for the record company to make a profit off of this album?

Oh, for the love of... HE WASN'T HAPPY. He's young, and he wants to chase 1 of his dreams. Would you rather they force him to stay, and he just mails in all his matches and does nothing but bitch in the lockerroom? Yeah, those millions of dollars he makes for 15-20 minutes of work a night.......wasn't he WWE Champion up until what.......A MONTH AGO? I'm just not seeing where the unhappiness comes in. "The travel! The travel" So what, everyone else on the roster does it, including guys who put his ass over. He just comes off as a primadonna.

Just like when Barry Darsow golfed, or Steve Lombardi became a baseball player.

What a jackass. Was anyone else ever pushed harder then this guy, and then he just leaves? He reminds me of the Warrior.

I don't recall him ever beating members of his family......... Either way, remember how he used to trash Jericho on his site? Then one day it turned into hardcore pornography? Those were the days.........

yeah I noticed that too... and I'm not surprised... still a decent match and even though I saw the trish turn a mile away a little dissapointed, but evil bitch Trish mixed with bastard Christian is going to be a great combo Could they have messed up a couple more spots? I bet Vinnie Mac gave em hell when they came back through the curtain.

I will offer nothing for the password! But I would appreciate it.
