Scroby

I haven't posted in awhile, there's really no reason why except I really haven't found much to post about. I am still training and I am still Refereeing for promotions and regardless of what the Khali mark says, are not backyard feds. (check out the WWE comments that don't warrent a thread...thread to see what I'm talking about.) -Training: Training has been going ok. I've just about completed 6 months of my 1 year training contract. While I'm still slowly improving, I'm still having trouble with being able to do a straight forward flip and body control. When I flip, I keep tucking a shoulder in causing me to rotate into what looks like a jumping spin kick. Plus I'm also not jumping straight up, I keep lunging forward, which I"m not really suppose to do. i'm suppose to jump up, but for some reason my body just doesn't want to. My problem is that I keep thinking/fearing I'm going to end up on the top of my head again. I've done it quite a few times in the pass and got really lucky and only got a sore neck because of it but I keep thinking that next one, if that next one happens, will result in something a lot less worse then a sore neck. Other than those things, training is going ok really. I'm learning new moves a few times a week and learning how to craft matches better more and more and we have a few gimmick ideas for me but my favorite one will be done with me wearing a mask. I won't go into detail about it here, because you never know who might end up reading this stuff but when I'm really close to debuting it or at least have debuted it I'll talk about it. Oh, and before I forget if anyone here whose reading this wants to help me design a mask, that would be great. I can't draw worth a damn and everyone I ask if they can design a mask for me sorta falls through, I've asked quite a few actual wrestlers if they knew anyone or any company that might help me but I've got silent no's or a "do it yourself" from Konnan. So if anyone would be intresting in drawing a design concept so I can send it over to Highspots so the mask could be made, that would be FUCKING GREAT! Refereeing: Refereeing is going amazingly well. I'm being booked around the bay area about 2 or 3 or more times a month now and if training doesn't work out very well by the time my 1 year is up, I think I will just skip out on the wrestling part and just become a Ref, as I'm still having a lot of fun doing it. Promotions: Devil Mountain Wrestling (DMW):Devil Mountain Wrestling (my home promotion that made me into a Ref and where I'm currently training.) is finally running shows again. We really haven't ran a big show since last Sept. We kept getting the run around by the armory that we wanted to run shows at, so after almost a year of not running any shows we finally found what may become our new home for running monthly shows, which is a Boys and Girls club. We did our first big show of 2007 last weekend and it went really well. We had near or at 85 paying people and for really your first big show in almost a year, that really is a good number. I was hoping for 100 while others were hoping for more, but I'm generally happy with having that many people show up. California Championship Wrestling (CCW): CCW is still running extremely strong and actually just had their 1 year aniversity show this month (July). Plus CCW is still on Comcast On-Demand here in Northern California so I'm regularly on tv....you just need to have Comcast's On-Demand service...and live in Northern California to watch CCW on tv. I know CCW is also working on other things for tv right now but I can't really say anything about it until they annouce something. But yes, CCW is going really strong and doesn't look like they want to keep running just as strong or stronger. Their drawing huge crowds of about 300 or more people (think Indy show people), have great wrestling matches, and have a Bay Area market, CCW is really going. BRAWL: BRAWL is still going and running very well. They're having 2 regular shows a month and I'm used as a Ref for them now instead of a sound guy. Well I still do sound if they REALLY need me to. Rik Luxury really trusts me when it comes to hitting music cues and doing everything correctly when it comes to running the sound and I competely understand that, so if asked, I'll do sound for something he wants done perfectly. North American Wrestling (NAW): Goddamn NAW shows are a lot of fun. I've only worked a few of them but whenever I work them, I always have a great time. Not saying I don't have a great time at the other promotions I work for, but there's something at NAW that lets me know that I'm going to have a great time that night. NAW's also really starting to bring in big names as well. At the last show Psicosis (the actual Psicosis) wrestled on the card and so did Gangrel. I didn't really get to meet Psicosis as he pretty much stayed away from the rest of the wreslters and was mainly on his cell phone, Gangrel on the other hand....AWESOME GUY. Really friendly, really easy to approach and talk to, I have nothing and will never have anything bad to say about Gangrel EVER! Great guy. I love working NAW shows but there is one kind of negitive thing about working NAW shows. They go for so long. They are stacked 11 or 12 match cards and the show doesn't seem to end until about 11:30 or midnight...on a sunday night. Which sorta sucks because I get up for work on Monday mornings between 5 and 5:30 am, but since I have so much fun I really don't seem so much...until the next day when I'm driving my work truck and I'm really sleepy, but like I said I really enjoy working their shows so I shouldn't be complaining. BAW in Oregon:BAW is up and running again after being forced to take a few months off due to someone else up in Oregon who got scared by how well they are doing. I still have a working relationship with them, but I really can't afford to keep going to Oregon to do their shows, which is sading as I really loved working up there but I got to look at the reality of things, should I skip work and have less money so I can pay my bills, buy food, and keep a little left over until my next paycheck, or should I go work in Oregon and miss that paid day at work and that answer would be....choose buisness over pleasure. THE BIG NEWS!: Ok, time for the big news I mentioned. In late Oct., there will be a wrestling con (think Comic-con) taking place at the Cow palace. It's going to be a 3 day event and on the 2nd day (Saturday) the people running the con is going to have a HUGE card and I found out last night, after contacting the promoter via E-mail, it looks like I'm going to be one of the Refs for this huge ass card. Now when I said "Huge ass card" I don't mean it's a whole bunch of matches put together, no I mean it's a stacked big name card! Here's the card so far: Knight of the Indys-Last Man Standing 30 man Battleroyal: Every 60 seconds, a new wrestler will enter the Battle Royal and when all 30 men are in the match, YOU MUST BE THROWN OVER THE TOP ROPE TO BE ELIMATED. My trainer Helfyre is actually in this match. Hardcore Fatal 4 Way: Al Snow vs Axl Rotten vs Blue Meanie vs Nick Sinn Battle Of The Giants: The One Man Gang vs Kamala Singles Match: Tony Atlas vs Dr. Death Steve Williams Legendary Tag Team Match: The Rock and Roll Express vs The Midnight Express Battle of The Big Boys: The Nasty Boys vs Vicious & Delicious (Buff Bagwell and Scott Norton) Texas Bull Rope Match: Ron Bass vs Black Bart Triple Threat Match: JD Micheals vs Billy Kiddman vs Sharkboy Greg Valentine & Brutus The Barber Beefcake vs Koko B Ware & Tito Santana Test & A-Train (T&A) vs Rick Steiner & Dan Severn (NOW FOR THE TWO BIGGEST MATCHES ON THE CARD (in my view only) ) The Great Muta vs Ultimo Dragon!!!!!! And the Main Event: Christian Cage vs Abyss vs A Mystery Man. (I actually don't know who the Mystery man is, but I'm thinking/GUESSING It's either Kurt Angle or Bill Goldberg as they both will be at the Con.) So you can see why I'm really excited to be working as a Ref for this show. The idea that I could Ref one of these HUGE matches is fucking awesome, espically Great Muta vs Ultimo Dragon, that would be a dream match to Ref. Here's also some good news about it, it looks like the show is going to be on Pay Per View. I don't know the details about according to the website and flyer, it looks like the show will be on PPV. If anymore details come up, I'll post the details. So yeah I'm extremely excited about it and if you want to check out the website and get more information about the 3 day WrestleFanFest go to http://www.wrestlefanfest.com/ Being a Referee is so great!

hmmm....never really noticed.

So here are the results for Devil Mountain Wrestling's show on 7/21. Devil Mountain Wrestling would like to give a special thanks to B.R.A.W.L. for stepping up and offering the use of their P.A. and entrance curtain when our other arrangements fell through.Without them there would have been no music and the D.M.W. fans would have gotten an eyeful of the wrestlers getting changed. -Joe Applebaumer beat Jesus Kruze -Anton Voorhess beat Shaun Sims will a roll up and a grabbing of the tights. -Maynard Skynard beat Alexis Darevko by D.Q. after Darevko wouldn't let go of a submission hold while Maynard was on the ropes. Robbie Gilmore came out to get Darevko off of Maynard Skynard. -El Chupacabra beat Robbie Gilmore. After hitting the code red on Robbie, Chupacabra went for the pin but Robbie kicked out. Chupacabra went for the pin again and Robbie kicked out again. Chupacabra got frustrated and told the Ref it should be a 3 count, and while Gilmore was just about back up to his feet, Chupacabra went for a enzuigiri but Gilmore ducked it but Chupacabra connected with the Ref who was standing right behind Robbie Gilmore. The Ref was knocked out on his face.Gilmore hit his cutter and after the cutter was hit, Alexis Darevko came out, and hit Robbie Gilmore back down and picked up a fallen Chupacabra and gorilla pressed Chupacabra down onto Robbie Gilmore. The Ref was then waken up enough to make the 3 count. -The Suburban Commandos retained their D.M.W. Tag Titles in a tag team elimination match against Bloodline and Rated 2G. Rated 2G was eliminated first and then the Commandos pinned Bloodline to retain their titles. -Jason Vega beat Rik Luxury with a frog-splash to become the 1 contender for the Devil Mountain Championship Title. -Mr. Frost beat Helfyre, Mike Henry and Sexy Chino in a 4 way elimination match to get the first spot for the King of Devil Mountain Match that is going to happen in a few months. Sexy Chino was eliminated first, followed by Mike Henry who was eliminated after Frost hit Mike with a running power-slam but Helfyre made a blind tag and got the pinfall. While Helfyre was celebrating thinking he won the match, he turned around and got a HUGE spear from Mr. Frost who then pinned Helfyre with his boot on Helfyre's chest giving Mr. Frost the first spot in the "King of Devil Mountain" match. In the Main Event, Sir Samurai defeated the Suburban Commando: Sir Samauri got T-Rent with a roll up and using the bottom rope for leverage to retain his D.M.W. Championship Belt. During the match, T-Rent grabbed Sir Samurai and walked him around ringside so the fans, Chupacabra (who was on his cell phone) and a Ref could chop Samurai. After the match was over, D-unit and DJ Rizz came out behind Samurai, who was walking towards the back facing the ring) and thrown back into the ring. Samurai pleaded the 3 men off and suggested that they dance. The Commandos agreed and all 4 men started Thizz Dancing in the ring, Samurai tried to make a crafty escape during the dance but was caught by the Commandos, and so instead of a crafty escape, Samurai got himself a quick escape being thrown through the ropes. The Thizz Dance started up again and the kids at ringside got into the ring to celebrate and dance with the Commandos. The next Devil Mountain Show is on 8/25 at the Boys and Girls Club in Martinez. 1301 Alhambra Ave

We're just one step closer to seeing it on WWE programming. If anyone is still questioning if the Hart Foundation 2.0 is going to be infact debuted, I can honestly tell you it will be. The Wrestling Grapevine has gotten this information to me.

So I watched that........Glenn Beck has no idea what he's talking about......he's exactly what people mean when you say someone has no idea what people are talking about. Saying there's no athletic talent in wrestling......he's just acting as if wrestling shouldn't exist at all. He taps right into every single stereotype out out there, the white trash the idiots are fans........every stereotype, real hard edge reporting right there. Basically this is what kind of person Glenn Beck is. Glenn Beck is one of those people who always never got Pro Wrestling. Never watched pro wrestling, never understood why people watched it, and most likely doesn't know anyone who watches it on a regular basis and always saw it as a joke and when Beck had a reason to rant against pro wrestling, he took the first chance he got and ran with it, but you should have figured this out when Beck called the "Great American Bash", the "All American Bash" and had the old WWF scarch logo on that monitor in the backround. The panda people should sue him for using that logo.

He more than likely won't be allowed to take pictures.

they're all minors aren't they?

Donkey Kong = Mark Henry Plus he could be a ref like in Punch Out.. Goombas= Duce and Domino

Toad = Hornswoggle Luigi = Shad Wario = Trevor Murdoch Waluigi = Stevie Richards

You might as well go on and do it. You've already gotten that far so why back out now? Would the construction your worried about be done at night or during the day?

JBL: "B Double E Double R U N"

why cant i get paid to do that seriously WWE needs him right now in a big way No they don't. Don't get me wrong, I'm a big Heyman fan but barely anyone McMahon or backstage wise works well with him that would cause even more stress they don't need.

I'm pretty sure Raven has a few stories that start off like that. Yeah, if Raven even remembers them and if he does, he more than likely won't tell you. Raven was kind of a jerk when I had a car ride with him. Actually I shouldn't say that, he wasn't in a very good mood that day so thats why he was kind of a jerk on the car ride to the show.

This has nothing to do with today's ECW and most of the people who watch WWE/ECW today doesn't even care about Raven and his ECW past. No one is really going "Well Morrison is no Raven!". Morrison only needs to carry someone who is less talented than him or rookies. As long as he's paired with guys who are either on par with him or a better worker then him, then Morrison is fine. Goldberg also wasn't estblished either, Morrison is and if your going to do a gimmick change with someone whose in the main spotlight, then you better start making known what's differant with the new gimmick. Didn't hear his promo, have no argument here...yet. What wrestler doesn't want a title (storyline wise)? If your a wrestler and your on a show with only 1 championship title, what do you think EVERYONE'S goal is? No clue what your talking about.

Something will happen so a re-match can happen. Punk will loose in some kind of un-clean way which will prompt a re-match at Summerslam. CM Punk may not even win the title at Summerslam, he may loose there as well to keep the fued going. WWE really needs to have a strong championship feud going so fans are kept intrested in the ECW title and a CM Punk vs Morrison feud is the way to do it. Having the title change hands for Morrison's first MAJOR title defense won't do a damn thing, building a good storyline leading to a title change is what works.

It seems to me generally that's harder levels in wrestling games period. The A.I. doesn't seem act really too much smarter, it just gets luckier and gives you less breathing room with reversals. No Mercy/Revenge on max difficulty? It's hard to build up momentum because weaker grapples are nearly all you can do safely because strongs usually result in you getting dropped on your head/knocked down repeatedly. Really? Myself and my friends would destory No Mercy on expert. It got to the point where expert felt like easy and we actually question the person playing if he was on easy or not. Co-Op with a human player vs. computer is cake if your partner is decent. So much opportunity to double team and outsmart the computer. oh no, we did it in singles matches. See we figured if we wanted to beat each other, the best way to help us would practice against the computer on expert. So if anyone challanged the computer, in any type of match, the game was set on expert.

just wait until they take his stapler.

Honestly add Sandman and Balls to that list as well.

What do you mean? He hasn't been on tv in like 3 weeks. Well, now that he's no showed, it can lead to two things: 1. He's quiting the company due to no push 2. He failed a wellness policy test, or knew he did and is currently in hiding. We better not be getting any text messages from him anytime soon. Actually Cor Von has been getting quite a push on ECW. Nitro, Viscera, Punk, Miz and Boogey are getting pushes. Cor Von hasn't been relevant to the show since the originals/new breed thing died. Still, he was being pushed.

Yeah, I'm sure Nitro was able to pick a gimmiick.

lol, I got it all figured out. Jon Lovitz was in the club and when he saw that Andy Dick was performing he said "Hellooooooo". Lovitz took a seat in the club before Andy went on and during Andy's performance, Lovitz just suddenly stood up, with his index finger pointing in the air and yelled "it stinks"! Lovitz then went on stage and grabbed Andy by his collar, saw the bar and said "that's the ticket" and drugged Dick over to the bar where he (supposely) bashed Andy's head into. After the beat down, the crowd gave Lovitz a standing ovation, in which Lovitz replied "ACTING" then took a bow.

That's the ticket!
