I've seen her somewhere else  -- but I don't think it was wrestling related.

For those of you that didn't see this match, this is probably the ONLY
way to describe this match.  Not only I thought was painful to watch, but
the last words from Morgan(?) were "NO!  NO!  AAAAAAAHHHHHH!"

MSG shows could be fun to watch.  But I must admit, I love the banter of
the panel.  If the match is bad, I walk away & do something else until I 
hear the panal start yapping.  Then it's a quick rush to the other room to
catch Heenan, McMahon, & others for a laugh or two.


Happy holidays all.

The heel turn was set at the time of the match. After the tag team match 
when Curt and Greg got into their little fight, I remember Larry Nelson 
doing the old "I can't believe what just took place" act, and they were 
hinting at a Hennig/Zbyszko alliance for weeks before that match.

Summary: definition of suplex wanted


	I only ask this question because the rspw action is slow lately. I was
reading rec.games.video (can you tell how bored I am with all my friends home
for christmas break and me trapped in Worcester?) when I read an article from
someone who bought WWF steel cage challenge for the NES from a friend with no
instructions. He wanted to know how to do a bunch of moves, including how to
do a suplex when your opponent is goming off the ropes. I was all set to flame
him (I've never done that yet, but this seemed a good choice for my first time)
because he betrayed his wrestling ignorance. You can't do a suplex to someone
coming off the ropes. I later recalled the tilt-a-whirl is a counter-example,
but he also claimed to have figured out how to drop kick someone who was lying
on the ground. (I'd like to see that!)

	I didn't flame him, because I would have had to explain what a suplex
is before I could explain why you can't do it to someone running at you. After
some thought, I couldn't come up with a good definition of a suplex, taking
into account all the moves that are called a suplex. My first try was a move
in which you start with your opponent in a headlock and end with dropping him
on his back. This was no good, because it ruled out gutwrench and belly-to-
belly types. Alright, how about you start in any kind of hold and drop your
opponent onto his back. This is as close as I've come, but I think it allows
things which I don't consider a suplex, like a body slam or Razor Ramon's 
finisher. 

	So does anyone out there know the necessary and sufficient conditions
for a move to be considered a suplex? Or is it more or less arbitrary and the
announcers just call one move a suplex and another move something else?

	I will be looking forward to hearing your opinions. I'll post my recaps
of the WWF syndies tomorrow, including Perfect-Berzerker and the Steiner's
debut. See you then!

In order to wish you all a happy 1993, I'd like to propose New Year's 
resolutions for some of our favorite wrestlers (and netters)
 
Vince McMahon: To see "Malcolm X" and learn that stereotyping is bad.
 
Bill Watts: To fire Eric and run WCW like the old UWF. Hey, he's got the 
talent!
 
Hulk Hogan: To limit his comback to color commentary and/or managing.
 
Ric Flair: To get those damn teeth fixed, and to win a third WWF title.
 
Rrrazor Rrramon: To drop that cheesy accent, chico!
 
Nailz, Tatanka, Undertaker, Kamala, et al.: To add some workrate to their 
gimmicks. UT in his prime was a great wrestler.
 
Bob Backlund: To get out of the WWF before Vince puts him in freckles and a 
flannel shirt and calls him "Howdy Doody".
 
Phil Stromer: To come back to r.s.p-w without his racist homophobic drivel, 
or else never come back at all.
 
Gorilla Monsoon, Eric Bischoff, Joe whatever, Vince McMahon, Reverend Slick, 
and the other crappy color people: To catch whatever it is Bill Clinton had 
during the campaign.
 
Jim Cornette: To turn Smoky Mountain into a big league without national TV.
 
Me: To shed those 20 pounds and listen to more progressive rock! :)
 
Happy New Year everyone!

None of the allegations will make it to the stand... They are just that:
ALLEGATIONS.  There have been no charges filed, no suits settled.  Sure
there have been payoffs to keep cases out of court - but people filing
the suits must of been more happy with the payoff then pursuing the case.

Even tho there was a police report filed on the incident there were
no charges filed.

One of the interesting aspects of the 'Nailz/Vince' fight that I read
in the Observer was that no one in the locker room was in a
hurry to help out Vince as he was being pummled.  Only the old line
'friends' of Vince (Gorrila, Skoland, Hebner) helped out.

It's time you guys & gals learned/realized once and for all, that this issue
of yanking Stromer's posting priveleges to this group has nothing at all to
do with infringement of his right to free speech.  The only "right" a
suscriber has in this group, or any other NetNews group, is to complain
to the sysadmin when we become fed up with being exposed to the sort of 
mindless crap that Stromer has been feeding us.  All other activities
carried out in this group is due to the fact that the NetNews Administration
has graciously consent to allow it.  That's right, kiddies, this is a
PRIVELEGE, not a right, and anyone who abuses that privelege deserves to
have that privelege taken away from him.  If this is what you refer to as
censorship, then as far as being in favor of it is concerned, I am guilty as
charged.  I make no apologies for it.

Now, from what I have seen in this group in the few years I have been
reading it, Stromer's postings contain little, if any, wrestling-related
info, and in most cases, are either derogatory, sexist, insulting, or
just, plain offensive.  Now, in a free society, it does not matter if 
someone's comments are offensive (at least within legal boundaries), since
under the constitution, the person's right to free speech is secured.
However, posting to NetNews is not a right, and if the administration
determines, either on its own, or with a little assistance, that Stromer's
posts are not to be allowed in this group  then so be it.

I apologize to those who, like me, are tired of seeing yet another post on
this subject.  I promise that this will be the last one from me on this
issue, as I feel enough has been said on it already.

When they had the old WCW from Atlanta - before it was bought
by the Crocketts, Don Muraco showed up for a stint. It was actually
well done in the old NWA fashion of bringing in a big name for
a month or two, starting a fued, then the big name takes off after
a tour.

This occasion had Gordon Solie doing commentary. Rowdy Roddy Piper
in a fued with someone - . So in comes the mysterious "Mr. X" or
"Dr. Death" or some such thing. And of course, not having seen the
Roc since he bulked out, I did not recognize him, however, he 
was clearly an experienced wrestler without mercy. He hit hard.

During and after the matches, Piper would pull out a wad of money
and give Muraco some "incentive". Piper would say do something and
when Muraco did it "well", he got paid extra. 

Boy, that Piper sure was sinister. Sure miss him. Anyhow, the mask
comes off, Piper and Muraco have a falling out and Piper meets
Don in the ring. I believe Don was going to Sucker Punch Piper but
Piper hit him with a roll of quarters instead. KO. 

Good story, good build-up, good believeable action.

The actor who played Zeus (in both "No Holds Barred" and the subsequent

(He also was on HBO's football sitcom, "First and Ten", and is apparently

But his eye really is "wonky".  So that's not one up on Nailz for him...:-)

 In today's Toronto Daily Star, the 'rasslin' column mentioned that 
Kevin (Nailz) Kelly is GONE. Apparently Kevin got into a "difference" 
of opinion with Vince. Mention was made of a few punches and a choke 
hold (nice to hear he's still following the Script).
 
 The apres' Xmas card at Maple Leaf Gardens will feature BBM vs Papa 
Shango as the fill in.
 
 Still, this will cost The WWF a bundle as they've spent several 
months pushing Nailz, my guess is Lex should get some "color" 
commentary work and a PUSH ahead of schedule.
 
 Oh, haven't read any comments about last weeks WTBS televised events 
and that Horrible Album (from my brief encounter, Steamer's Music(k) 
is the worst (but that's relative, as all of cuts that I've heard are 
shit)).
 
 Vince used "Eye of The Tiger" as the Hulkster's intro but as luck 
would have it, he probably got hit with royalties (heard that 
everytime Happy Birthday is played on National TV, it's a $1,500 tab) 
and decided to avoid this by getting a burnt out Musician (Rick 
Derringer) to write some tunes.
 
 Did a rasslin' album and made a Fortune, oh well when you're Hot, 
you're HOT! 
 
 Anyways it's Xmas Eve so I'll cut this short and have another Egg Nog 
(cut the milk, eggs just gimme the fuckin' Cognac.......;-) ) and 
extend Season's Greetings to All.

I think it had to do with Brody not cooperating when they wanted him to job. 
It's understandable why there'd be friction, but to stab a guy for it?
