    Review of Flair's book

    That has the potential to be the funniest thing I have ever heard. Also, I might be the only one who liked the "Flair as President and Piper as Vice Prez" shit they did in WCW. RPVP!

    Jasmin St. Claire

    I went over and got a beer and generally ignored the ring when she came out for an interview, so I don't know. For the Meanie/Roadkill match she was involved in, I was already gone.

    I dunno, I guess the finish is I went back the following month, got in for free, and had the Rockin Rebel ask me to not be near the guardrail when she came out.

    Review of Flair's book

    Foley's got way more charisma and understanding of ring psychology then that dullard Sting. He also has many more memorable matches under his belt. What's Sting got? Clash Of The Champions I? Starrcade '97?

    Review of Flair's book

    Taken directly from RAW magazine, This is the kind of **** I was putting up with - despite the fact that I was on the booking committee. That’s why it pissed me off when Mick Foley blamed me for not recognizing his full potential during that period. In his book, Have A Nice Day, Foley wrote, “Ric Flair was every bit as bad on the booking side of things as he was great on the wrestling side of it.” First of all, I’ll never call myself a great booker, because wrestling always came first. But Foley took a shot at me. Here’s his receipt - I’m taking a shot at him. When I first started on the booking committee, Foley was working as Cactus Jack and doing an angle where he was living in a homeless shelter. I admit it - I didn’t know what to do with a 300-pound guy living in a homeless shelter. It took P.T. Barnum, in the form of Vince McMahon, to take a guy whose claim to fame was his willingness to get thrown off a cage, to turn him into Mankind, and make him into a champion. Foley has a cult following because of his contribution to hardcore wrestling. But hardcore is such a small part of the history of this business. When I was training, falling off a ladder was not a prerequisite to making it as a professional wrestler. Being fundamentally sound was. Occasionally seeing the inside of a gym was. When I trained under Verne Gagne, we started with 500 free squats, 250 push-ups, 250 sit-ups and a two-mile run over farm terrain in zero-degree weather. Then we came back to the barn to be wrestled into submission, cross-faced into submission, stretched into submission - and if Verne didn’t like the way things were going, we’d start all over. He would have looked at Mick Foley on day one - after Mick failed to do even one thing Verne required - and said, “Mick, I don’t think so.” I don’t care how many thumbtacks Mick Foley has fallen on, how many ladders he’s fallen off of, how many continents he’s supposedly bled on, he’ll always be known as a glorified stuntman. Verne Gagne didn’t fall off a ladder. Dory Funk, Jr. didn’t fall off a ladder. Neither did Wahoo, Steamboat, or Steve Austin. Terry Funk was a great worker before he started doing that. Kurt Angle, Shawn Michaels, and Chris Jericho can do it and maintain their reputations because they’re already respected as athletes. And what about people who never did anything else, like the Sandman? He’s no wrestler. Hardcore became a niche for a lot of guys who couldn’t do **** -all in the ring. I’m not saying that Mick Foley wasn’t a star, that he wasn’t a great attraction. But in my estimation, Mick Foley was not a great worker. He couldn’t punch. He couldn’t kick. In the World Wrestling Federation, he’d spend half the day before television broadcasts sucking up to the writers - because he’s such a fan of himself. There’s a difference between being a great performer and being a guy - like Brutus Beefcake or the Ultimate Warrior - who became famous because he happened to be working for Vince. It’s the same with Foley. When he hasn’t been working for Vince, there’s been no demand for him whatsoever. He’s just another guy. Mick Foley doesn’t understand what it was like to be on that booking committee. Jim Herd humiliated me and made me cut my hair - after I’d won the NWA championship six times. How much power did I have? When I was going through all that, how should I have been able to look at Mick Foley, push everything else aside, and mold him into a superstar? Sting, on the other hand, was worthy of becoming the champion. Foley>Sting And by taking potshots at Foley's training, he is taking shots at WWE Legend Dominic Denucci. At this point, I wish Mick would've stiffed the old bastard in the ring at Mania. Although this pisses me off severely, I am going to enjoy the hell out of the verbal ass raping Flair gives to Shane Douglas. And, while I am thinking of it, Cactus Clothesline>Flair Flip

    Review of Flair's book

    Agreed. Flair hasn't had a memorable match since 1998 that wasn't nostalgia based. Foley tore it up about 2 months ago at Backlash. Flair is also *a lot* older than Mick Foley. When Flair was 38 (Foley's age now?), he was putting on CLASSICS everytime he wore tights. UYI I'm soooooooooooooo glad someone said this. It's my fault for saying that to begin with, because comparing the two is somewhat ridiculous. Let's just say that Flair is a dick for talking shit on Foley, and an idiot for not recognizing his marketability when he was in WCW, and leave it at that.

    How do I write a resume'?

    I'm very close to getting a job where I'd pull in about $11 an hour, but I need to put together a resume first. Any tips? I've never done it before, and have no idea how to format it and whatnot.

    Review of Flair's book

    That match did indeed boost Ric's confidence and he got the tribute he deserved afterwards. Good for him. Why is that such a bad thing? Flair's obviously past his prime and can't hold up with the rest of the guys in the ring, but is he really that unwatchable or are you just finding something to complain about? Obviously, he's having the time of his life and the fans are still reacting, so more power to him. umm, do YOU watch his matches? He hasn't brought anything new or fresh to his matches in over 5 years. He can't even take a back body drop properly. He is just an old flabby guy that can't just let go. It is no different then the boxer Roberto Duran and George Foreman still trying to get in the ring and box. Not to mention he is seriously risking his health and well being. I know the argument is, "well that is his choice" but when you are becoming senile like he is, he may not even know what is best for himself. He needs to retire. So, because you don't agree with him, he's senile? Heck, Flair, in many ways, is right about Foley. What did his style do to him? Retired him young and he'll be in pain for the rest of his life. Is THAT a style you want to have young workers emulate? -=Mike Flair's a bitter dumbass. And Foley is clearly not in pain, as he was moving around the ring like he was 25 in the match against Orton.

    Review of Flair's book

    He was a main eventer in WCW. What the hell is flair talking about? No demand for him at all when he wasn't working for Vince? Senile old bastard. He was NOT a main eventer in WCW. He did have a few main event feuds, but he was never a Main eventer that would be taken seriously...... Amnesia angle anyone? Besides, that Texas Death Match with Vader looked like it was taken pretty seriously to me.

    Eric Clapton's "Wondeful Tonight" would also be a good one.
  17. Drug addiction isn't mental, but anorexia is? They're both for the weak, but still, if you're gonna consider one mental, then the other surely is.
  18. Yeah, what kind of sick freaks could be turned on by Nicole Kidman getting her gear off? I mean, she is kinda pasty.........

    MTV True Life: I Have a Summer Share

    Think about it....you're still 18-20 years old and you're earning 200K a year. Your parents are more than happy to give you a cheap place to live. Your money stacks up over the course of say....5 or so years. Eventually, you've earned nearly a million and can now buy a decent place, and have some money left over to live on for years until you have to go get a real job. I'd say that he was smart. I'd say he sounds like me like he is the uber-nerd.
  21. I don't believe any of that mental shit. I call it being a moron.
