Of course, if it was invite only, chances are that you wouldn't be
invited.  Hyuck hyuck...

Seriously, I have had an idea of this sort milling about my head.  What
I would like to do is to set aside a time every week, on a weekend, for
wrestling chat on the different places.  What I am thinking of here is
to set aside separate times on IRC, BITnet Relay, Cleveland Freenet's
IRC, and IDS's CB.  Problem is, unlike most of last year, I no longer
can guarantee that I'll have every weekend to commit to coordinating it
or even being there.  However, if anyone wants to take this idea and
make a go of it, please feel free to do so.

Okay, time to clear up another misconception.

Buddy Rogers lost the NWA title to Lou Thesz in Toronto on January 24,
1963.  The promoters in the Northeast U.S., led by Vince McMahon Sr.,
formed the WWWF.  The reason given was that they felt that Rogers was
robbed and they weren't going to recognize Thesz as champion, instead
recognizing Rogers.  In reality, however, McMahon was the business
manager of Rogers during his title reign and felt that Rogers had an
incredible potential as champion well beyond the time frame that the NWA 
actually gave him to be champion.

The main misconception associated with this is that Rogers was
recognized as champion right after losing to Thesz, hence the notion
that he held the title for 3 months or so.  In reality, Rogers was
awarded title recognition in mid-April of 1963.  He lost the title to
Bruno the following month.  Rogers would have likely had a long reign as
champion, however, he suffered a heart attack shortly before the match
with Bruno.  This explains both the brevity of the match with Bruno and 
the subsequent disappearance of Rogers from the ring (he retired after 
this match, and didn't return until 1967).

My guess is that Bruno's popularity is what led McMahon (and later, his
son) to take the approach of the long-term face champion with short-term
heel champion stints in between.

Or, we could take the Philip Stromer approach and call everyone we don't
like by "rootslurper" or "fudge packer."

But then again, Stromer proved himself time and again to be the ultimate 
clueless fuck, so perhaps the term "mark" may be somewhat appropo in
this case.  Then again, his displays of maturity (NOT!) on here and his
admission that he is an Observer reader (and one who still hasn't a

like that) would actually qualify him to be a "mutant."

The announcers mentioned this weekend that Muta would be there if Sting
ever needed him (anyone think he'll turn on Stink (again)?)

Maybe they're going to have Sting switch to tag team wrestling (with Muta)
in order to open up a title for Jake "The Snake" Roberts coming in...

Just a thought...

    I did get a chance to see some of it this past weekend.  There are six ways
to describe this show.  One is a "B", another is an "O", and the last four are
"R", "I", "N", and "G".  You can hear Vince talk about healthy cooking, workout
techniques, and "Getting ripped" (bodybuilding, not drunkeness).  It's really
just a bunch of two-minute skits in which WBF stars talk about fitness.  The
only interesting thing was that Lex was on.  At least twice, he walked out in
front of the camera while Vince was talking completely unannounced and said
"You Gotta WANT it!" right into the camera.  Very strange.  Very stupid.

....Here is a repost of this week's Brain Teaser Trivia questions :

    APOLOGY: I slightly messed up question #3.  For those who have all ready
       submitted guesses, feel free to send me a corrected answer for it (and
       I'll take the flames too!!).


    1.  Since 1980 who has held the most titles in the NWA/WCW and WWF combined.
        Who has held the second most and third most?

        NOTE: Consider only the currently active WCW/NWA and WWF belts (i.e.
              WCW/NWA World & World tag, US & US tag, WCW/NWA TV, WWF World
              & tag, and IC)

        HINT: The top guy has 10 reigns while #2 has 9 and #3 has 8.


    2.  There have only been three WWF tag team champions which have sucessfully
        defended their title on a WWF PPV.  name them.


    3.  There have only been six WWF IC champions who have sucessfully defended
        their title on a WWF PPV.  name them.

  I couldn't disagree more.  If you are a professional athlete, why should
concern for your health and lifespan put you at a competitive disadvantage
with some ignorant hillbilly who cares more about the immediate rewards????

  I have to believe that people who feel like you, and the athletes who are
using 'roids, just haven't thought this through.

And the reason that Vince wouldn't let UW use it is because Vince had
promised that song to Brutus Beefcake.

Two other topics:  Someone asked who else was at ringside along with Goulet
and Hebner after the Flair/Savage match - If I remember correctly, I'm 99%
sure that Chief Jay Strongbow was there, too.  He was balding on top and, if
I remember correctly, was wearing glasses.

Last Thursday night, Paul Roma evened his pro boxing record at 1-1 with a 1st
round TKO over Norman Fortini in Randolph, MA.  Roma was listed as being from
Bridgeport, CN.  I don't know how much he weighed, but he was fighting as a
heavyweight.

I don't think it could have been a shoot either. Unless I'm mistaken,
the refs are "in" on the booking, and if the ref knew Flair was supposed
to win, he had a real easy out by to stop the count by pointing to the
tights Randy was holding... The ref got a eyeful of Ric's butt during the
1,2,3...

Just an observation.

Borden and Hellwig received their first major exposure in Memphis in
November of 1985.  They wrestled under their real names, as The Freedom
Fighters.  They were awful stiffs, working as faces and generally
injuring jobbers.  They turned heel after about 3 weeks of this, and
stuck around Memphis for about a month after that before moving on to
Mid-South.

They had wrestled some before heading to Memphis, but basically they
started out getting a push on very little training and even less real 
experience.  And to this day, it still shows.

The thing I loved most about apartment house wrestling ads were the
pictures that they used to advertise the stuff. Almost every picture 
featured one chick with a scissor lock on the head of another chick
with a closeup of a snatch. You could find more bush in apartment house
wrestling ads than you can find in the White House.

Well, today when I was talking to Joe Pedicino, I was asking him
some non-mark-type questions.  Boni overheard us, and when she
came over, she said something like, "So you're a smart fan?"
I took as just what it means, as I did not have any idea that
it was a term in the wrestling lingo.  I guess I should be
happy that she didn't call me a "smart mark" :-).

Ok, what'd I miss?  I know full well about the deal with the Warrior,
but Sid?  Did this happen outside the WWF?  If that's the case, then
there wouldn't be much basis for a feud between Sid and Jake.

As far as I know, they were nothing more than a made-up group. Odds are that
