  • Kassius Ohno released by WWE NXT

    I remember the first time I saw Chris Hero. He came in to the IWA Mid-South dressing room in 2000 and he didn’t look like the prototypical professional wrestler. He wasn’t muscular. He wasn’t tanned. He looked overweight and slow. Then he stepped into the wrestling ring. Hero was a natural. He could move with…

  • Bollig Puts Pardy Through The Glass

    I know a lot of hockey fans.  I even know a few people that gave a damn about hockey BEFORE the Blackhawks won the first of their Stanley Cups a couple of years ago.  I don’t know what year that was off the top of my head and I don’t care enough to look it…

  • EARTHQUAKE?!?

      This belly to belly suplex in a sumo wrestling match causes the ground to shake like an earthquake was happening.  Very impressive.

  • My Favorite Wrestlers To Manage

    I taped a 2 hour long podcast with “Mean” Mitch Page and Nick Maniwa this week.  The podcast was all about my 12 years in IWA Mid-South and some of Mitch’s and my favorite memories from our careers.  The podcast got me to thinking about things and I felt like putting out a blog detailing…
