Earthquake? Really? I just don't think I could watch that. For a big guy I really liked watching Tenta's matches. Plus he was one of the guys I actually hated as a kid. Would also love to see a Vader dvd but a John Tenta one seem more likely.

So for the past few weeks, I've been seeing a lot of commericals for Shoot Em' Up and I think I might see it this weekend. I was wondering if anyone was going to go see it or what your thoughts on how it looks might be?

The spine and neck injuries were caused by the Mortal Kombat crouching uppercut that sends opponents 10 feet into the air. Anytime you hit someone under the chin so hard, that they're launched that far into the air, only to land flat on their back, the end result will rarely be good. Oh Pro Wrestlers do it all the time......wait the blame is on Mortal Kombat this time around right? I re-tract my statments.

I honestly just want a Arn Anderson dvd so I can get a lot of his best matches to study off of.

On Saturday night (12/15) I had my first offical pro match at Devil Mountain Wrestling. Well technically my first match was the Halloween Battleroyal that took place in Oct, but I'm not counting that match, so the match over the weekend was my first offical match. The night started with me cutting a promo after the first match..that I fucking butchered. I kinda had certain points I wanted to get over but I think I tried to structure it to much and tried to hard to get those certain points over with the crowd, which caused me to over think and stumble over my words. I really really butchered that promo and felt really shitty about it afterwards. I actually heard Helfyre in the back yelling stuff during the promo...he had been doing that all night long as well. Helfyre was being really..umm..loud that night. Which was funny because even though we had a good crowd..they were dead for a good majority of the night. I didn't get it. Even with big moves, the crowd kinda sat on their hands, which was weird because it was pretty much our normal crowd. Luckily they did get loud for my match. So I Ref'ed another match that night then after a little while longer, my match finally came up. It was a 6 man tag match, with America's Most Hated Anton Vorhees, Alexis Darevko, and Sheik Kahn Abodi vs The Fun Atheltic Guys Kimo and Chico and myself. The match started with Kimo working on Anton. Kimo got a early advantage and decided to keep tagging his tag partner Chico in. The Fun Atheltic Guys wouldn't tag me in. They felt they were protecting me from America's Most Hated. At one point, Kimo and Chico were able to get all three members of America's Most Hated outside of the ring. Kimo and Chico invited me to come into the ring and celebrate with them...but they ended picking me up and throwing me to the outside on top of America's Most Hated. Here's a picture... After being tossed out and on top of America's Most Hated, I threw Anton Vorhees back into the ring and returned to my corner. After being not tagged after a few more tags, Chico went for another tag of Kimo and I cut Kimo off and tagged myself in. I was tired of being ignored and wanted my chance to shine. After being tagged in, I went right to work on Vorhees. I snapped him over with a snap mare and gave him a good kick to the back. I then picked him up and gave him a nice LOUD chop to his chest, backing Anton to the ropes. I whipped him off the ropes as I planned to hit Anton with a clothesline but instead, Anton did a Pa-lae (Aj Styles back flip kick) kick and caught me on top of the head. It all went down hill from there. I proceeded to get my ass kicked for what seemed like forever. America's Most Hated kept me away from my corner and kept tagging themselves in and out. I was getting my ass handed to me as Anton Vorhees, Alexis Darevko, and Sheik Kahn Abodi kept hitting big moves on me but I was always able to cut out. Finally at one point, I caught my bearings and ducked a clothlines from Abodi and when I turned around, I caught Sheik's kick, I then spun Sheik around and gave him a stunner. We were both down and out as the Ref started his 10 count on us. Sheik crawled over to his corner and made the tag, before the fresh member of America's Most Hated was able to catch me, I dove and tagged the fresh Kimo. Kimo came in and cleaned house and was on FIRE~! After a few minutes, Kimo and Chico hit a combo backstabber/double stomp on Alexis Darevko. I noticed that Anton was trying to sneak into the ring and I came in and cut Anton off and gave him a clothesline which knocked him back over the ring. Kimo and Chico told me to climb to the top rope and I did. When I got to the top, Kimo and Chico grabbed me and threw me off the top rope with me landing a splash on the fallen Alexis Darevko. I stayed on top of Darevko to try and get us a pinfall victory. Kimo and Chico put their hands on my back to make the cover that much stronger and the Ref counted to 3. We had won the match. After the match, I celebrated with Kimo and Chico and did a "insult pray" to Sheik as America's Most Hated stumbled back to the locker room. After America's Most Hated got to the back, a good chunk of the DMW locker room came out from the back and made their ring to celebrate my first match. As soon as I saw Mike Hayashi and Helfyre come out from the curtain, I broke down. At first, I was just relieved and happy that I actually made it through the match. After two years of on and off again training, after two years of doing sound and Ref'ing and doing other things at various shows, I finally got to have my first offical Pro Wrestling match and these guys, who I see as family, came out and give me that praise, just made me very happy. I was happy with how the match went, but seeing these guys come out and to tell me I did great put me on all levels of happiness and I broke down because of it. It became a very emotional thing for me but it was a happy emotional thing. After the match was over, I broke down what I had to and packed everything up in my car and made my way over to Oakland for Rocky Horror and damnit I was tired and my back was sore (Dareveko lit my back up with chops) but I still made it through Rocky and the drive home. After I got home, I passed the hell out. It was a good night and a good match but I think I'm going to put my next wrestling match on hold for right now and continue to Referee. I really enjoy Ref'ing at the moment and I feel I still need some more training before I start a full-time with just wrestling.

Thank you, it makes me happy to know that anyone enjoys reading my posts.

There's still only a few more weeks of 2007 but wrestling wise, there's no more shows I'm apart of. So I can go ahead and give 2007 a review wrestling wise. 2007 was a great year for me wrestling wise. I did so much and I accomplished a whole hell of a lot, in such a very short span of time. If you would have told me in Oct. of 2006 that I would Ref outside of California, work with former WWE/ECW wrestlers along with current TNA wrestlers, Referee at the Cow Palace, and to end it all, work with the Great Muta, I would have laughed at you, but by the end of 2006, it was all starting to become a reality. It really all started back in November of 2006 when Helfyre asked me if I would like to go to Oregon and Referee for a promotion called BAW. I didn't know it a the time, but that's pretty much when all the crazyness of what I was really going to do in 2007 would start. BAW is what really set things off for me. It was the first time I Ref'ed out of the state of California and it was the first time I would have worked with fromer WWE/WCW/ECW wrestlers along with current (at the time) TNA wrestlers. It was where I got to meet and work with New Jack, Spike Dudley, and Molly Holly. BAW also gave me a lot more confindence when it came to Refereeing. To be honest, before I went to BAW I didn't feel to comfortable being a Ref. There was just something about it, that made me keep thinking I wouldn't get it or I would be just pick of the litter Referee, but BAW made me feel differently. When I Ref'ed for BAW, the fans hated me...but it was a good kind of hate...the kind of hate wrestlers want to get from crowds. The Promoter and the Booker loved me as a Ref and would always tell me how I was doing a good job and the wrestlers loved working with me. It made me want to Referee more and more. Ok, I'm getting a bit off track here, this post is going to become a BAW love fest instead of a 2007 year in review before to long. So BAW is what really jump started things for me and from there, wrestling wise, just continued to climb. TRAINING:At the start of year, I re-started my training to become a Pro Wrestler. I enjoyed Refereeing but I didn't get into Pro Wrestling to become a Referee, I got into Pro Wrestling because I wanted to be a Wrestler. I think training was the only thing that brought me a lot of my lows wrestling wise throughout 2007. There were always times where I felt like I was getting it, I was understanding and doing/taking moves and understaning wrestling psycology a lot more but there were a lot more times where I wasn't getting it. Weather it was understanding how to give or take a move correctly, understanding the psycology of something or trying to do a stand-still front flip bump. Man I hate trying to do that. At one point I actually was able to do it, but we took something like a week in a half off from training because the ring was down and when we got back to training...I competely forgot how to do the front flip bump and still can't really do it to this day. I'm getting closer to remembering how to do it, but still quite pull it off again. Though I guess I got the aspect of it enough to have my first offical pro wrestling match. It took me 12 months but hey, I got to have it. After 12 months straight of training, my trainers felt good enough to give me my first match and I'm glad they did. I felt more comfortable going into the match because I trained for so long, because I got to learn the craft of Pro Wrestling in a 12 month span. I think any earlier I wouldn't have been ready as I was for the match last Saturday as I was after training for 12 months. DIFFERENT COMPANIES: At the end of 2006, I was only working for a hand-ful of promotions. BRAWL and CCW were really the only companies I was working for. I was with Devil Mountain Wrestling but by the end of 2006, Devil Mountain wasn't running any shows, we ran one in Sept. but after that, Devil Mountain Wrestling didn't have a show after that till mid-2007. So by the end of 2006, I was already working for BRAWL and CCW and just started working for BAW up in Oregon, and I really wanted to work for more companies as a Referee. So I actually made a New Years Resolution to work for those extra companies and I did. By the end of 2007, I have worked with and Ref'ed Devil Mountain Wrestling (DMW), California Championship Wrestling (CCW), Barely Regulated American Wrestling League (BRAWL), BAW (I have no idea what they were actually called other than BAW.), North American Wrestling (NAW), and Supreme Pro Wrestling (SPW). Then their was the whole WrestleFanFest thing...technically that's not another company but fuck it, since it was put on by someone else, I'm gonna count it anyways. It's my blog, I'll count it if I wanna. (lol) I'll admit while it was fun working for all those companies, it made my weekend life/schdule really hectic. There were a lot of times my schdule for a weekend looked like this.... Friday: BRAWL (BRAWL normally ran on Fridays) Saturday CCW or DMW (either show normally run on Saturdays), then the Rocky Horror Picture Show. Sunday: NAW or SPW or BRAWL (Either show normally runs on Sundays, and every once in awhile BRAWL would run on a sunday) So after working BRAWL on a friday night, on Saturday I'd either have to wake up really early to set up for the DMW show that was taking place, or I'd have to leave my house by 2 or 3 o'clock and make a hour to one in a half hour drive to Newman to work CCW, then after working either show, I would have to leave the show and make my way to Oakland and hopefully get there by 11:30 to help put on the Rocky Horror Picture Show. After Rocky Horror, I would get home normally by 4 Sunday morning. Now for Sunday shows, I have to get up around noon to make it to each show. SPW shows start at 5, so I have to be there by 3. NAW shows start around 7:30 normally but because they're about an hour in a half away from where I live, I have to get up between noon and 1 so I can get ready to go before my ride comes and picks myself and my roommate up. NAW shows also run really really long, because they're done at a bar/club. So a NAW show will start at 7:30 (usually) and run close to midnight. So after the NAW show, i'd get home around 2 in the morning and when I was working. I'd get a few hours of sleep then have to be at work by 6 in the morning Monday morning. Here's what my schdule would look like altogether with weeekends like that. Thursday: work 6 am to 2:30 pm, Training @ 6:30 pm Friday: Work 6 am to 2:30 pm, BRAWL @ 7 pm, had to be there around 5'ish. Saturday: CCW @ 7:30 pm, had to be there before 5 pm, or DMW @ 7 pm, start setting up for show at 10:00 am. After working either show, drive to Oakland for Rocky Horror, have to get there before midnight. Sunday: NAW @ 7 to 7:30ish, leave house around 3 pm or SPW @ 5:00 pm, have to leave house by 2 pm or work BRAWL which took place at 6 pm, had to be there by 3:30 pm Monday: Work 6 am to 2:30 pm, Wrestling Training @ 6:30 pm. That's how a schdule could look for me at times. Even though I was dead tired come Monday...I loved doing those types of weekends. I really did. Will I work for more companies next year? To be honest, I honestly don't know. There are a few more companies here in the Bay Area that seem to be sprouting up, but they haven't contacted me about Ref'ing for them. I do know that I'm schduled to work for BTW (Big Time Wrestling) in Jan though, so that's already a new company right there, but I'm also not working job wise right now so it'll depend on if I can afford the gas to get back and forth or not. BIG NAME WRESTLERS:Throughout 2007, I got to work with or be on the same show with a lot of wrestlers who work or have worked with WWE, WCW/NWA, ECW, TNA, and Japan. Here's just a list of them; New Jack, Molly Holly, Brother Runt (Spike Dudley), Kamala, Rikishi, Al Snow w/ Head, Blue Meanie, Steve Corino, D-lo Brown, The Great Muta, Gangrel, Team 3D (The Dudley Boys), The Stiener Brothers, Slick (Slick was ribbing me the entire night), The Sandman, Francine, Babydoll, One Man Gang, Orlando Jordon, Diamond Dallas Page, Mean Gene Okerlund, Eric Bischoff, Barbarian, Warload, Scott Norton, Raven, Dr. Death Steve Williams, Tonga Kid, and I think there's a lot more names, I just can't remember them all. Some of them I got to work closely with while others I met for a few seconds and they most likely don't remember me. But yeah, if anyone ever told me before 2007 I would meet and work with those people, I would have laughed at you. Never in my wildest dreams would I ever think I would meet all those people or even ever get to work with them. Some I still talk to today and I'm still pretty good with, others I've met once or twice but were all nice to meet and a good number of them have said I do a great job as a Ref. There's nothing better than hearing that a former World Champion loved your work in the ring, it's a awesome feeling. 2008: What will happen with me in 2008? I have no idea. I don't think anyting could really top 2007 wrestling wise for me. I was able to do so much and accomplish so much in 2007. I think really the only thing that could top 2007 would be wrestling in more wrestling matches, maybe winning a title for a company other than Devil Mountain Wrestling (I wouldn't feel right holding a title in the company that trained me, well not for quite awhile anyways.), and getting to work in another big show. Sorta like what WrestleFanFest was...just better organized. Those things might help make 2008 a better year than what 2007 was for me, but first before I even think that, I need to work on getting a new job so I can afford gas to make it to these other shows.

^ changed his avatar to a picture that was posted in "Pictures I like". (Pablo Francisco is a comedian who had a comedy central special years ago and wavebo spalsh was part of his act. He talked about his roommate who was a stripper shaving his wavebos and using wavebo splash as a aftershave, and the acted out commerical was "waveboy splash you sexy motherfucker!" I forgot when I replyed to your post that I had it in my sig and the first thing that came to my mind was Pablo Francisco. I still can't believe you remember me having that in my sig so long ago.)

So that means Chavo is on ECW now? I like it, unless they do something where because Vicki is the GM she re-instated Chavo for Smackdown and he just decided to attack Punk because that's the only face with a title on either ECW or Smackdown.

I filled out the survey and gave honest answers. Which were all pretty low as I haven't been pleased or excited about anything WWE has done in quite some time. This was my answer for "WWE means PROFESSIONAL WRESTLING."

Now say the writers strike gets called off before the 8th episode airs, will Lost continue or still take that break?

Alrighty, so I'm all nice and caught up and I've seen all the episodes except for episode 16 from Season 3 "one of us". I rented the last two discs from the Season 3 set forgetting I hadn't see episode 16 yet, so I just read the details online and it seems I didn't miss to much or from what I could tell, 16 was a ok to miss episode. Anyways, I can't fucking wait until Season 4 starts up!

Devil Mountain Wrestling, Nightmare before X-mas on Saturday 12/15
Scroby posted a topic in General Wrestling
That's right, finally after two long years of training, I make my pro wrestling in-ring debut, but it's all for the wrong reasons. See I wanted to make my in-ring debut as a Pro Wrestler on a more happier note, but I can't. And I can't because for the past few months, three men have blantly attacked me and tried to hurt me. It all started when Sheik Kahn Abodi attacked me after he lost the DMW XXX title to Kenny wyler (formerly Kenny K) a few months ago. After I declared Kenny the winner and new XXX Champion. Sheik grabbed me and started arguing with me. The next thing I knew he gave me a forearm, then stomped me, then bodyslammed me and then hit me with not just 1 frogsplash..but 2, 2 frogsplashes! Then at the DMW show in Oct. Alexis Darevko was wrestling Chico Naverro when all of a sudden Alexis Darevko pulled me in front of Chico when Chico was trying to hit a flying shoulder tackle on Darevko. In my daze, my mind got all jumbled up and I DQ'ed Chico for giving me the shoulder tackle but after I got my barrings back together, I realized that it was Darevko who pulled me in front of chico causing Chico to hit me and lay me out. Then last month, in November. It was Sheik Kahn Abodi and Alexis Darevko vs Kimo and Chico the F.A.G's and when it looked like the F.A.G's had Sheik and Darevko beat and I was making the 3 count, all of a sudden I was pulled out of the ring and thrown into a ring post by someone in Sheik clothing. After a few minues of laying on the cold hardwood floor, I was brought back into the ring only to get a Russian Edge (sorta like a razor's edge but I got popped into the air) by Alexis Darevko and then frogsplased AGAIN by Abodi. The person who pulled me out of the ring who was in the Sheik's clothes....Anton Vorhees. Anton had aligned himself with Darevko and Sheik. After the show last month, I got on the horn with our Commish and asked him to please give me a match. I want it to be Alexis Darevko, Anton Vorhees, and Sheik Kahn Abodi vs Myself and The Fun Athletic Guys Kimo and Chico in a 6 man tag match! The Commish gave me the ok and now the match is set in stone! On Dec. 15th in Martinez CA, I will tag with Kimo and Chico and we will kick internataional ass!!!!! Other matches schduled to take place. A XXX title match as Kenny "Rot" Wyler will defend his DMW XXX Championship against 2 people schduled to be annouced later. Joe Applebaumer vs one member of the Surburban Commandos DJ Rizz and a very holiday season match, Santa Claus vs Mrs. Claus!! Also schduled to appear; Maynard Skynard, Jason Vega, Sir Samurai, and Mike Hyashi. -
Script for Impact on 1/3/08 (with working link)

Script for Impact on 1/3/08 (with working link)
Scroby replied to Hunter's Torn Quad's topic in TNA Wrestling
How do you know? On one of his most recent radio shows, Bryan Alvarez said that someone in TNA had sent him an actual script and that he was thinking of posting it sometime. Earlier tonight, whoever it was that sent him the script uploaded it and posted it on the F4W message board. I expect it'll get talked about at some point on WOL tonight if someone wants to call in and check the veracity of the script. Oh that doesn't mean a damn thing. If I handed you a script and said "Someone from TNA gave this to me." would you believe it? Don't believe everything you hear/read, espically by a internet reporter. Also, since the script has been leaked, the show will be re-written. There's no reason for it to stay the same now, besides that, Pro Wrestling booking gets changed all the time, even right before a show happens. If anything the script (if real) just tells what was planned before hand, that's really it. -
Devil Mountain Wrestling, Nightmare before X-mas on Saturday 12/15
Scroby replied to Scroby's topic in General Wrestling
Here are the short/detailed results to the DMW show that took place on 12/15. Match 1: Brandon Pinon vs The Wise Guy Results: The Wise Guy beat Brandon Pinon via pinfall after The Wise Guy hit Pinon with a famasser off the 2nd rope. Match 2: Jason Vega vs Mike Hayashi Winner: jason Vega Match 3: Joe Applebaumer w/ Eddie Corvin vs Dj Rizz vs Kenny "Rot" Wyler with his manager in a Non DMW XXX Title Match Winner: Joe Applebaumer Match 4: Sir Samurai vs Maynard Skynard Winner: Maynard Skynard via pinfall. Maynard rolled Samurai up with a school boy while Samurai was being distracted by Helfyre, who ran out from the back. After the match Helfyre challanged Sir Samurai to a 2 on 1 handicap at the next DMW show on Jan 26th, but before Samurai could answer, Commish Big Mo came out and made the match into a tag team match, but Mo never said who Helfyre's tag partner would be, So next month, it'll be The Honor Socitey Mr. Frost and Sir Samurai vs Helfyre and ??? Match 5: Dan Daniels vs Johnny Pilko Winner: Dan Daniels Match 6: Mrs. Claus (Aka: Kassie Summers) vs Santa Claus (Mutaciando Uno) Winner: Mrs. Claus via pinfall after hitting a sitting senton from the top rope. Match 7: The Main Event America's Most Hated Alexis Darevko/Anton Vorhees/and Sheik Kahn Abodi vs The Fun Atheltic Guys Kimo Kanola and Chico Navarro and Ref Toby (that's me!) For the beginning of the match Kimo and Chico refused to tag Toby in as they wanted to protect him. At one point, Kimo and Chico got all three of Most Hated outside the ring. Kimo ahd Chico invited Toby to come celebrate with them in the ring, then picked Toby up and threw him on to the outside on top of America's Most Hated. After a few more minutes, Chico was going to tag Kimo in when Toby cut Kimo off and tagged himself in. Toby started off hot with a snapmare and a kick to the back on Anton, but when Toby went to irish whip Anton, Anton cut Toby off with a Paley (AJ Styles jumping backflip kick) to the head. It went all down hill from there as America's Most Hated proceeded to beat on Ref. Toby for a good portion of the match. Finally, when Toby got a chance, he ducked a clothesline from Sheik Kahn Abodi and then caught a kick. Toby spun Sheik around and caught Sheik with a stunner. During a double 10 count, Sheik made a tag and Toby was finally able to tag out and tag in Kimo! Kimo came in on fire with clothesline all around. When the match was in total chaos, Kimo and Chico grabbed Alexis Darevko and hit with a combo backstabber/double stomp move. Toby got back in the ring and clotheslined Anton Vorhees over the top rope. Toby climbed to the top rope and Kimo and Chico grabbed Toby and threw him on top of Alexis Darevko for a splash. Toby stayed on top of Darevko to make a pin attempt. Kimo and Chico then put their hands on Toby and the Ref made the 3 count. The Winners of the Match: The Fun Atheltic Guys and Referee Toby vina Pinfall! After the match, the DMW locker room came out and celebrated the Ref's Toby first match and win. (And I honestly broke down because of it, greatest moment of my wrestling career, here are some pic's I got.) Being thrown onto America's Most Hated by Kimo and Chico After match Celebration..like I said I broke down, I got very emtional when I saw the boys come out from the back. After Match celebration 2...I don't know why my head was down, and yeah I need a tan.
