Highland 0 Report post Posted January 27, 2004 Knight Rider>Speed Racer>Speed Buggy>Holly. That is so true. I have to wonder how the fuck you can hurt someone so bad with a clothesline that they need to be carried out on a stretcher; and this isn't some rookie like John Heiden-whatever making a mistake, but a 10+yeard "veteran" I hope he gets some alone time in the shower with Bradshaw.

EdwardKnoxII 0 Report post Posted January 27, 2004 Holly obviously goes out there with the intention of hurting someone. WWE doesn't need that. Yeah and seems lately it's been with newcomers/rookies. Brock, TE Matt, and Morgan. They only difference is that Brock did something about it. You would think that Holly would have learned his lesson after getting dropped by Brock.

Guest Deebo Report post Posted January 27, 2004 When did Bob Holly all of the sudden become this "tough guy" ? He's a fucking career jobber and that's all he'll ever be. Just fire his ass already and let him go injure some indy workers. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest wrestlingbs Report post Posted January 27, 2004 I would not cry over Holly getting fired. Lord knows he's done enough to deserve it. I mean, Taker has screwed over people before, but at least he's had some good years. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Kurt Angle Mark 0 Report post Posted January 27, 2004 Update by Dave Meltzer [email protected] Matt Morgan was released from the hospital after suffering an apparent stinger in a match tonight in Reading, PA. During a tag match, Morgan took a clothesline from Bob Holly, and didn't get up. The match stopped and Morgan still couldn't get to his feet. He was eventually taken to the hospital. At this point it doesn't appear that the injury is serious. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
