Ultimate Warrior to make a return to the ring
Scroby replied to The Buzz's topic in General Wrestling
From my sources...Warrior's knee was fine. He came walking into the arena just fine and if it was indeed hurt, he sure didn't tell anyone who was working that show he was hurt. -
So the teacher wasn't a fan of the Fresh Prince I take it?

Fuck that, a bunch of us live here in the Bay Area. I'll make a trip down to San Jose to beat up some emo punks. We'll just sit our happy asses off in a car across the street and as soon as we see said goth kids and as soon as they step even close to the lawn, we get out of the car with ballbats. I bet they won't come the fuck back then.

Also in the same EGM, The PS3 verison might have Kratos from God of War.

I don't know if anyone else stills plays Halo 3 on Xbox Live but if anyone does, for today and today only, it's Bungie day and Bungie, for today and today only, has put out a new multiplayer map that you can download for FREE! But it's only free for today, July 7th. Some other things you get to download for free, a Bungie Day 08 theme and gamer pics. There's also a video up as well, that's also free to download. SO YAY BUNGIE DAY 08!

[Writer's Note: This post is going to be a very open post, so if you're a friend or someone who I know from the wrestling buisness (wrestler, Referee, fan, or whomever) please do not be upset if you read something you don't like. I'm just being very honest and open here about my personal life. I hope you all understand. Thank you for reading.] In the middle of May, I had gotten pretty sick. I wasn't throwing up blood or anything, but my body was in pain, a lot of pain. It wasn't non-stop pain, but it was random shots of pain in different parts of my body that last about 4 days, but during those 4 days I was pretty worried about my well being. I had a lot of trouble sleeping, I had a lot a trouble being at work because it affected pretty much everything I did at my job, weather it was lifting title or just driving, the random shots of pain in random body parts would want to make me stop doing what I was doing and ride it out until I felt better...but I never did that. I couldn't take a few days off of work because I needed money to pay my bills, but at the same time I couldn't afford to go to a doctor because I didn't really have the money to go, plus my job screwed up with my benefits and for whatever reason, I never got a medical card. During the 4 days that I was sick and in pain, I took some time and kinda thought of where my life was going and I realized I wasn't happy with the way my life was going. I kinda realized that financially and personnally, I wasn't in a good place. Financially, I made 14 dollars an hour, but I was barely getting by on my bills and if something happen to the point where if I had an emerancy or if my car broken down, I didn't have anything saved up to try and take care of those things. For someone who makes 14 dollars an hour, there shouldn't be a reason why I'm having trouble paying my bills. Personnally, I was starting to miss out on a lot of things. My very good friends were having a baby and invited me to come up to the Sacramento area to come and meet the baby for the first time, but I was so busy with shows and being on the road, I couldn't go. I felt horrible. There were other things that happen on weekends as well that I just couldn't do or go to because a weekend was swamped with a wrestling shows, or something always seemed to fall on a day I had a wrestling show. It really felt like I was revolving my life around Pro Wrestling instead of revolving pro wrestling around my life and to be honest, it was starting to bug me, but the way my financial being was, was what was really bugging me......a lot. In March I had re-taken a warehouse job that laid me off due to cut backs in November of 2007 as a second job. The job I already had was just a temp job, so when the warehouse job called me and asked if I would come back because they had a job opening since an employee had been fired. So I took it, once the temp job ended at the end of March, the warehouse job became my only full time job, which I knew was a gamble and it became more apprent at the end of April and the beginning of May and that's when I got to wondering if I should stay with the warehouse job....then I got sick and that's when the wheels in my mind got to turning about where I was in life. So I kinda got to thinking about things and just realized I wasn't happy with the way things were going. My job, while paid well, was either a dead end job that really gave me no experiance when it came to other jobs that I could do or it was a company that was really on the rocks due to the bad real estate market and could lay me off at a moments notice or could just close down and because I really didn't have anything saved up, I wasn't ready to be laid off again. So I decided to do what's best for me and act like an adult and take care of what I need to and figure out what I need to do to make my personal life better. So I decided to sit down and take a real hard look and think about things and figure it all out. I decided that I needed to take advantage of my job's schdule and go back to school and learn something that could really benefit me job wise, something I could fall back on, something that I know it won't be something useless, but at the same time, I need the time and money for me to really get going, so unfortunaily, I needed to cut back on one thing I really loved doing, and that's Pro Wrestling. While I love being in this buisness, it's a big drain of my wallet, between training to be a wrestler and the gas prices of traveling to shows, I was spending a lot of money, but that's mainly my fault for doing so many shows that I was doing on a weekly basis. Some weekends, it would only be one show, then in another weekend it would be two shows, some weekends it was even three and it just got to a point where I was spending so much on gas and milage it was starting to affect my bills. I also put a lot of time in pro wrestling. I was training two to three days a week and/or I was doing a show or shows every weekend and I knew if I really needed to put the right amount of focus on my life and my working career, I would have to take the focus off pro wrestling and stop spending so much time doing it and start spending a lot of my time on my personal life and career. It was a hard choice, but in a long run, I think it will just be best if I took a break and focus on what I need to. After I had gotten better from being sick, I went to my trainer Helfyre's house early before a training session and sat down and talked to him about my choice and while I knew he wasn't happy with my choice, I knew he understand. The ironic twist in this entire thing 5 days after I told Helfyre about my choice...the warehouse job laid me off again. What I wasn't ready for and what I wanted to have a plan for, blew up in my face 5 days later after I told Helfyre about my choice. If anything that was really a kick in the teeth for me. I finished out my Referee dates with my last show being on June 21st. June 21st was really a timeframe for my 3 year being around in Pro Wrestling in Nor-Cal, and I started it training with Helfyre in WCWA, I felt it was best for me to have my last show, be at Devil Mountain Wrestling, which is his promotion and also the promotion where I had been training and learned how to Referee. So want to know how I'm kicking off my leave from pro wrestling? Well here ya go, the end of the last match I Ref'ed. http://www.dailymotion.com/relevance/searc...han-abadi_sport

Hello Everybody! Randomly updating this thing because I haven't since Feb apprently. Sorry about that. there's no excuse for me not updating this...just haven't done it. So since I haven't updated this thing in such long time, I'll go ahead and talk about a few things that I've done here and there. The first thing I'm going to discuss is my experiance working for a new company out here in CA called Big League Wrestling..or BLW for short. They were using DMW's ring so I got automatically booked to Referee at the show because I'm also apart of DMW's ring crew as well as a trainee. So we get there, set up the ring, and I'm under the impression I'm the only Referee at the show, later I find out from the promoter that I'm not the only other Referee. Which was nice because I really didn't feel like Refereeing 8 matches in a row. The other Referee was a guy named Ronnie who Refs for another promotion out here in Bay Area. It was my first time working with him even though he's been around Refereeing for years. I guess he only Refs for this one promotion or if that promotion has influance somewhere else, he'll go and Ref for the company his main company has influance in. So as I'm waiting to time pass and show time to come closer, Ronnie is not there yet and the promoter tells me what matches I have for the night. Which was 1, 3, and 5, which was basically all the matches that had DMW folk in them. I was fine with that, but I was hoping to get half the card and Ronnie could take the other half, but the promoter didn't know me and my history with just about EVERY wrestler working BLW, except Chris Masters and Relik. They were also on the show but I'm going to talk about them in a minute or so. So after hearing my line up, Rated 2-G, who are a tag team from LA who've I've worked with quite a bit, requsted my Referee services as well. The promoter agreed and now I had Matches 1, 3, 5, and 7...basically all the odd numbers. The show starts around 6 and every one is there, the main event for the night was Chris Masters vs Relik. I was looking forward to meeting Relik as I've always been a fan of his and when he showed up, he was a really nice guy. First thing he did was walk around the entire kitchen turned into a locker room and shook everyone's hand and was really friendly throughout the night. Really easy guy to walk up to and talk to. Masters also did walk up and shake everyone's hand when he showed up....but to be honest, and this isn't a knock against him or anything, but he just seemed like he didn't want to be there. He just seemed he wanted to get through the night and get ouf of there. I go out there and Ref the first match, get done, go to the back and watch the 2nd match happen as I want to watch Ronnie Referee......I can't my opinon about his Refereeing (counts way to fast) skils. During the 2nd match, Rik Luxury (who was also working the show) asked me who was doing his match,the 4th match. I told him Ronnie and I was informed it was actually me. Ronnie ended up telling the people in the match that he didn't have it, which puzzled me because I was never informed of the Ref match listing change till right then. The 2nd match ends and now it's the 3rd match. Which was one of the DMW guys vs a guy who works with the same company Ronnie works in, (sidenote: I'm advoiding names here for good reasons.) who also holds a belt that was on the line. Before I walk out for the match, I noticed that Ronnie had not returned to the back yet, which puzzled me. I walk out there and I see Ronnie standing in the ring, waiting for the wrestlers to come out. I tug on my shirt and point to myself to give him the sign I have the match. As he's getting out the ring to walk past me, I pat him on the back and tell him I have the next 3 matches. Which was match 3, 4, and 5. I get into the ring and about 20 seconds later, I turn around to see Ronnie getting back in the ring. I ask him what he's doing and he points to the promoter who is now ringside. The promoter gives me the "come here" sign and I get out of the ring to ask the promoter what's going on. He tells me he screwed up and that Ronnie actually this match and I get pist. I go to the back and I'm asked why I'm in the back instead of out there from the guys in the back. I explain to them what happen and they're not happy about it either. A few people have an idea on why I was switched out of the match as a Ref but I'm not going to go into that here as I have no clue who will read this. So the match ends and I go out for match 4, still pist about what happen but it's over and hopefully nothing like that will happen again. Match 4 goes well and now we hit to intermission....which is half an hour long. Long intermission but people were signing autographs and Relik was in the ring taking pictures, so it's understandable why intermission was so long. Now it's Match 5, which was Helfyre vs DMW Champion Jason Vega for the DMW title in the DMW's championship first road defense. When the match begain, the three of us did a little something. Helfyre climbed the turnbuckle to get a cheer from the crowd, then Jason did the same thing, then Helfyre repeated the turnbuckle crowd cheer as did Jason. After they both did it twice...I decided to do it as well. So I do it and the crowd cheers...yay. The match goes on and Helfyre ends up beating Jason to win the DMW Championship. After the match we go to the back and I peak out the window to watch the match 6 and what do I see? What's the first thing I motherfucking see? The two wrestlers and Ronnie the Referee do the same excat thing Helfyre, Jason Vega, and Myself did with the turnbuckle crowd cheering. It just pist me off more. First he got my match switched and now he pulls that crap? Fuck him. It actually kinda backfired though because I know people in the crowd found it really dumb that they just did the same excat thing myself, Jason, and Helfyre did and actually doing it the match after ours. If anything, it just put me out there because it just made people think of the three of us doing it, so I guess it favors me and Jason and Helfyre in the long run but still...fuck him. I'm alright though because 2 of the 4 matches he was suppose to originally Referee (this was before he got my match switched at the last minute) in, the wrestlers involved in those matches told me how they wished or wanted me to Referee their matches as I know what I'm doing and how I know my place in matches and how I can keep up with the guys involved in the matches...while Ronnie...while to be blunt..Ronnie sucks and he made it painfully obvious that night. The BLW show itself was cool. I had fun doing it other than the minor problems I had with Ronnie that night, but the show itself was fine, but sadly that is most likely the last show I'll be doing with BLW as......well...I plan on taking a long break really soon.

oh! Okie dokie, then I would diffently say Muta. That was a dream come true, honestly.

Ultimate Warrior to make a return to the ring
Scroby replied to The Buzz's topic in General Wrestling
I can find out. Give me a little bit though. -
I wonder what they'll do with Killings if this is true. I wonder if he'll be the one that takes the U.S. title off Matt Hardy to bring it back to Smackdown.

I was going there to check something and noticed they still had Ranjin Singh's bio still up. So naturally I looked for Khali and it was nowhere. People can discover stuff by accident too, you know. Right, but that doesn't mean "HOLY SHIT! I can't find Khali's bio! There must be some dastardly deed happening! I MUST REPORT THIS!" Yeah, because that's totally how I presented it. You totally got me. I was way too overexcited there. I dare shall not underestimate your indy wrestling referee superiority. That's not what I was trying to get across, I was trying to say there wasn't really a point to report every small thing that happens on WWE.com like you're trying to make it sound like news, when it's really not. That's something you may notice and say "hmm, they must have taken down Khali's bio for a little bit.". Not a "Hey!, I can't find the Great Khali's bio! I must let the people know about this!". Then pose like you're superman for a second.

I think it's Maria. I think the Diva title will have nameplates. Looks like the plate that says "champion" is removal. Actually at another glance, I could be wrong about that. But if the diva championship could have nameplates, i would think the "Champion" plate could be removed.

I figured out that it was the MR814v1. I updated the firmware and saw an immediate improvement in my internet speed on this computer. This, unfortunately, is a no-go. In v2 and v3, you can disable the firewall, but in v1, it's built into the wireless system and can't be disabled. Tried that. I keep getting either a 32002 error or a 32004 error. The connection test works perfectly, but I can't download the damn update. I'd prefer not to, but it's not looking like I have much alternative if I want to use this Wii Card I bought before I figured out if I could connect the Wii to the internet. If all else fails...Hammer. Or just call Nintendo. It may take a bit to reach someone but when you do, they'll help you out as much as possible. Nintendo's tech support is clueless. The asked me to forward all of the ports on my router to the Wii. That's fucking pathetic. Well then....HAMMER!

I agree with Antileaf, the movie looked cool and had some funny lines here and there but I didn't care for the plot either and I actually didn't really like the fact that it seemed Hellboy was able to fight and beat all the villians without an issue. I kinda want to see Hellboy 2 because it again looks really cool but I don't want to see a much of monsters and villians that look bad ass and then see them all get their ass kicked by Hellboy.

She's the tall skinny blonde on Smackdown who no sells pretty much every woman's offense and domiants every match she's in.
-
I agree with Dandy, the belt isn't to bad looking and at least it has a different unique look to it. I like it as well.
-
If I remember right, the WWE made a giant deal out of the "What's gonna hatch?" gimmick and like the guys at the roundtable said, it just about had everyone wanting to know what was gonna hatch or who was gonna pop outta the egg.....only to find out it was the Gooker.
-
So I went through the Superhero draft and I must say...this draft was great. A lot of good picks were made, though to be honest, I'm kinda surprised no one tried to re-create a team (like the sinister six or something). Though reading through this thread I realized how much I've missed since I ducked out of the comic world recently, so I got some questions. 1. When did the symbiote take over The Punisher? 2. Dok Ock died? I had no idea!
-
So I don't have 24/7 and apprently I really need to fucking get it. I watched two shows of the Legends of Wrestling roundtable on Dailymotion and I enjoyed every minute of the two that I watched. The shows I watched were the "Badasses" and "Worst Charatchers" shows and I was just hooked on every word. They did put a lot of time talking about the Gooker and The Shockmaster but lets face it, those are two of the most worst gimmicks that ever happen and hearing Dusty tell the story about everyone's who was backstage and on the stage reaction to the Shockmaster enterance was funny as hell. What I'm liking about the shows is that the people on the roundtable are holding nothing back when they talk and the discussions are covering a lot of ground around the topic, not just the topic itself. I think the Legends of Wrestling might just be the main reason why I get 24/7.

I've always wanted a bedromm just like that, but more like a pond, not a pool.

I'M SPARTACUS!

glad we can agree.

Yup, you just needed to get your xbox online then so you could download the update(s). Why can't you do that with your current set up?
-
Wait your Xbox wasn't connected to the internet? Ok now this isn't making much sense. Your console woudn't have known about any update unless you were connected. What was the message you got when you turned your Xbox on?
