Guest Corino 1000 Report post Posted April 13, 2005 Well to have kicks and fun is not worth 3 grand. Instead of buying a pro ring, unless you have money or something, I say build a homemade one. Me I just have matrese's and karate mats. Not great but it does the job. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest Salacious Crumb Report post Posted April 13, 2005 Why are you going to dump 5 grand on something and then just stick it in the backyard for the weather to destroy? You're just wasting your money as rings really aren't meant to be out in the elements. And here I thought I was losing my mind for considering dropping $250 on a title belt.

Dobbs 3K 0 Report post Posted April 14, 2005 Yeah, if you're going to drop that kind of coin on a ring, fine, but I would hope you'd do more with it than just mess around with friends. If you are thinking about getting a ring, maybe you should think about becoming a promoter and running actual shows. Seems like a waste to buy and ring and then just have it sit in your backyard.

Just for kicks and well,fun. Anyway, where would I go to purchase one? If your heart is set on getting a ring Highspots is the only way to go. HOS rings (www.prowrestlingrings.com) are not only too expensive but they are a pain to set up and tear down and they use inferior padding. Monster Rings (http://www.monsterwrestlingrings.com) not only are slow to get your ring out, but I've heard that after a while (a matter of months) the posts start to bend. Highspots rings are the easiest to put together, no need for comealongs or bolts just drop the pieces into place and they stay. The padding is the best I've ever bumped on. If you're in North Carolina you might want to consider visiting their workshop to test a ring first hand before you buy. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

cameron chaos 0 Report post Posted April 14, 2005 If I bought a ring, it would be to practice MMA in PRIDE FC style. I wouldn't go trying swanton bombs in my own backyard or attempt piledriving my friends because 1) they have warnings about not doing this shit at home when you have no idea how the fuck they are trained to protect themselves and 2) it's fucking lame. I can chill with my buds in front of the TV with beers in hand, I don't need a wrestling ring to relax with friends. If you can only relax when playfighting with your friends pretending to be half naked men you watch on TV, you may just be gay. As for not being able to see why it's cool, that's probably because I am not fucking backwards enough to drop 4 figures just to playfight with other people in my yard. If you are, go ahead, I look forward to you trying to sue WWE for when you throw your friend through a table and break his back and try to claim they influenced you. If you think you are cool wrestling in a shitty homemade ring in your garden, you clearly have no idea what "cool" means in the context you are attempting to use it in. However all these big words have probably caused you to have an aneurysm and lose control of your bodily functions, so hopefully you will be dead before you can reply with even more nonsense.

I'd rather he got some exercise with playfighting in his backyard with a bunch of grown men/women, than sit in front of the TV like a lard ass. I think we all agree he definitely shouldn't buy one, and even if he did he shouldn't be performing any high impact moves. Even low impact would be questionable since it is apparent that he doesn't have enough common sense that you shouldn't be dropping several thousand dollars on something you wouldn't use effectively, and the simple fact it is a good thing to save money while you're young. I do mixed MMA and shadowboxing with a group of outdoorsmen type people(mixed genders), and not only is it a lot of good exercise but quite a bit of fun. There is something primal about using your skills to physically tie up your opponent to make them submit to your superior tactics or dumb old luck. Life is short, have fun while you can within reason. Don't see anything 'gay' about it at all, since there is nothing sexual about rolling around on a mat with another man or even another woman that I have no romantic or sexual involvment with. edit: Also you might want to change your avatar and signature, since you cannot hotlink from the servers you are attempting to hotlink from. I find it amusing you cannot/will not afford some webspace but thought "seriously" about investing in a wrestling ring. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest Hass of Pain Report post Posted April 17, 2005 You should just say the hell with it and buy the ring and throw it in your living room or something. One of these days if I had a huge house I would definitely consider putting a ring or an indoor basketball court or something in if I was in the right financial standing. I don't know exactly what I would do with it, but it would still be pretty fucking swank. If your boss comes by your house for any reason, your girlfriend can all be like "Yeah, he's here, but he's running the ropes right now". And you can stand in it with a fake mic and shoot on your friends. The possibilities are endless. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

JJ Johnson 0 Report post Posted April 17, 2005 I'd make all my dogs job to me, so that when my cat ended the winning streak AND reversed my "Roll over, boy" finisher with the kind of "fuck you" stare that only a cat can give, he'd be a bigger star than ever and a major draw for years to come. My cat would be Hogan to my Andre, or, to a not make him a bigger star or draw at all extent, Kevin Nash to my Goldberg. Then I'd win the title back ten minutes later in an "if you get counted out, you lose the title" match. What were we talking about? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
