Are we still doing suggestions for cheap wine and wrestling because if you something that goes well with cheap then Juggalo Championship Wrestling would be it.
Also I have 2 bottles of Jack and a Bottle of Jagermeister that aren't drinking themselves so any suggestions for that would be great.
JCW is Faygo mixed with the nastiest bottom-shelf vodka you can get.

Ugh, I forgot Juggalo exists.
I still vote for Nitro
In all honesty it will probably end up being that because I want to watch like, a full show or something.
I mean, Inter Species Wrestling has a couple of full shows up on their youtube channel. That's good for pairing up with trashy wine, provided you can handle the rampant sexual power of Giant Tiger of course.
Slamtasia 3 is a decent card. It has Zombie Stupefied vs Osirian Portal, Player Uno vs Eddie Kingston, Beef Wellington vs Addy Starr in something like fifteen improptu matches and the aforementioned sexual tyrannosaurus Giant Tiger taking on Steve "The Turtle" Weiner because every indie wrestling show has to have something on it that annoys Dyvim.
Ultimately it is still an indie sleaze company though, so it has some kind of offensive stuff on deck a lot which is a shame.
I really like the emotion on Carmella's face at the start of the match, you can tell she really appreciates that she is where she is and how much it means to her.
It doesn't just round her character and the person, it builds the importance of the belt.
In injury news, I somehow got a pinched nerve in my C6 and will be out for at least 4 weeks.
For fuck sake, it's becoming like a curse from a Korean horror movie...

It's not too bad, actually. It only hurts a bit in the bicep when I move my arm a certain way, other than that, just some tingly in the thumb. Orthopedic doc I saw today said in 90% of cases, you just need to rest and let it heal. If I'm not good in 4 weeks, I'll go back in for an MRI on my neck and maybe a steroid injection.
According to ProWrestlingSheet, their sources say that Titus O’Neil spoke with WWE management following the incident on Monday that got him suspended, to better explain himself. Their sources claim that O’Neil said that he grabbed McMahon’s arm because he was only trying to allow Stephanie McMahon to exit the stage first. The story says that O’Neil was trying to let the lady go first, and was only trying to be polite, but adds that he also understands that the situation may have been perceived differently by others.
Come on WWE, I understand he might have been overzealous but don't force him to sit out Mania for that if it's accurate.

Since you are the resident guy who is wrestling in a small indy fed I have to ask this. How many guys are there because they are doing it as a hobby? How many are there hoping to move on to bigger venues? And what is the average age of the guys your working with?

It's mostly 20s-30s, a couple in late teens. I'd say we have one young guy (Sonico) who wants to go big if he can , another guy in his 20s (Gringo Loco) who started a few months after me and is definitely better than me at his point and would certainly have a shot to move on to some bigger places if he had the time and/or inclination to really train beyond our small group and beyond lucha as well as hit the weights hard, and another guy who is good but with huge delusions of grandeur. But mostly hobbyists. We don't have a lot of us, but hoping to build up ranks.

So it looks like I've missed this boat by 10-20 years then. I've been doing Crossfit for 6+ years and sort of fallen out of love with the competition side of it for various reasons and was looking for something to apply all that training to that also might be fun. I did some Wrestling in HS and did Kung-Fu for a while so I can move and am surprisingly agile for how I'm built. Plus I did Radio, Theater, and had my own Sports show for a bit so Promos wouldn't have been a problem. I know I wouldn't main event anything and never planned to.
Thanks for the heads up and keeping me from walking in and having everyone look at me funny.

Find a local, reputable place and do it.
40 Exactly. I've seen Booker-T's school here (in Houston) and a couple of others. I might drop by next weekend and see how it goes.
Ah yes ProWrestlingSheet, that bastion of journalistic integrity.
Really it's the only logical reason I can see for Titus doing it.
Logical? This? Really? This is the ONLY logical reason? It's not even bordering on logical.
"Hey we're doing the end of a major show featuring the retirement of the most over guy on the roster through sad means, the boss is walking by, I'm gonna grab and pull him so his daughter can go first because ladies first"
That is the stupidest thing I've ever heard and if any part of that story is true, it's Titus pulling a story out of his ass. Vince comes out before Stephanie all the time, there was no reason at all for anyone, ever, to grab Vince so that Stephanie could go first.

Do it, man. The only thing you'd regret is if you never tried.
Also, make sure it is a good school. I've heard that some of those big name schools are more on the name and less on the school, so you can fork out a ton of cash just to say you went to a school with a big name on it. Plus, those places often just exist to get a kickback from WWE if they happen to find a diamond in the rough (probably polished somewhere else) that they can pass on.

I mean if you can cut a promo and are willing to work for a sandwich then you'll probably main event somewhere, and the promo part isn't even that important.
Seriously though you're already starting in a better place than most people who decide they want to learn to wrestle, age isn't really that big of a barrier quite frankly.
Everyone is different. Everyone is special.

Also I have 2 bottles of Jack and a Bottle of Jagermeister that aren't drinking themselves so any suggestions for that would be great.

Juggalo woud obviously be Faygo and plastic bottle vodka.

Human bag of shit Kevin Keenan released the world's worst rebuttal to his firing.
Kevin Keenan statement regarding being fired from Ring of Honor:
I’d like to address the recent story making the rounds regarding my release from Ring of Honor Wrestling. The story that you read on the internet is always better then the actual truth so let’s give everyone just that.
For the record in my 15 years in sports entertainment/professional wrestling I have never been involved in an incident and in my 30 years of life I have never been in trouble. Yes, I was fired from ROH. Most of you more then likely didn’t even know I was there. Apparently, the story making the rounds is that I was reprimanded in front of the locker room, ring crew and told to leave. Over the course of the television show airing from Nashville, TN I can be seen in run-ins and pull a parts. So that’s just not true. Let’s start at the beginning.
After doing a night before load in with the ring crew and setting up the ring a bunch of us headed down to Broadway. Myself and one of the other crew guys stopped in Tootsie’s. Having a few beers and taking in the live music. We decided to move on to another place. While walking down Broadway we run into a bunch of the guys and girls. One of the girls gave me a hug and I exchanged hello’s with a few others. I spot Mandy Leon and smack her on the butt (Yes, that’s true. It did happen). She turns around and gives me a joking around shove to the chest and I laugh and we even have a very brief conversation right after. Mandy is someone I have known for a while and has always been a very sweet girl to me. We would send some texts. Send some Snap Chats. Chat when were on the same shows etc. I spot Delirious (Hunter) standing right there. I shake his hand and say hello and we all go our separate ways. About 30 minutes later I get a text message from an ROH official stating “please tell me you didn’t mess up. Just tell me that”. My text back said “I know it was stupid. I shouldn’t have done it. How do I fix it?”. The response I got was “idk dude. fix it”. It’s starting to get to me after this that Hunter is extremely upset. I realize there is nothing else good coming from this night and I cab it back to the hotel for bed.
Next morning 11am is call time for the crew at the building. I go about my normal duties and I wait for Hunter to arrive. I spot him. I get him by himself for a second and say “Hey, before you get super busy. Can I just have two minutes of your time?” his response was “Yeah. I actually wanted two minutes with you.” I proceed to explain to him that I apologize for last night. That’s not how I act or carry myself as a professional and even though he doesn’t know me all that well he has my word nothing like that will happen again. After a few back and forth things between the two of us he says to me “Alright, go and do your thing tonight and we can talk later”. To me that means go do your ring duties and work your matches and we’ll continue this later. I go and seek out The female talent and we speak for about 10 minutes. I apologize and we talk. She lets me know that she’s never known me to be that way and I’ve always been really cool. I explain to her I’m really not and it will never happen again. Said ROH official walks by me and says “Mandy said you guys talked and all is cool”. There was a point in time where we didn’t know what time Todd Sinclair would get there as Boston had a foot of snow dumped on them and he was delayed. So he sent assignments over the phone. At this point I had matches on the show. Todd gets there about 90 minutes before showtime. Says hello to me but lets me know at the same time “Hey, Hunter said there are no matches for you tonight but there are run-ins and pull a parts”. I said “OK not a problem”. I knew right there it was a wrap. So throughout the night on each of the television episodes I do the pull a parts and run-ins as stated above. Show ends I go out and do my ring duties and we’re almost loaded up in the truck and I get word that Hunter wants to see me. Its about 1:30am at the point. He says “I’m not using you anymore. No one feels comfortable. I don’t stop using people they stop using themselves.” I kept it professional and said “OK, thank you for the opportunity”. I extended my hand. He shakes it and I booked a flight home and went to the airport.
While in the airport I run into some people who are killing time before their flight. I tell them the story and their faces just about hit the floor. It was then I was informed that they had just found out at the show that Hunter is sleeping with The female talent in question. I get the same news from a few other people in speaking with some others after I had got home. In 2016 politically correct sports entertainment/professional wrestling what is more of a Human Resources issue to a parent company that is traded on the NASDAQ stock exchange? Me joking around with a girl outside a bar who I’ve known for a few years with zero intention of harming or disrespecting? Or the 37 year old Booker/Dojo Trainer/”Boss” sleeping with the 23 year old female talent? The answer is quite simple.
In a nutshell my services to Ring of Honor Wrestling are no longer needed because the guy who writes the show is sleeping with the female talent got jealous and wanted to flex some power. If this was the decision made on me who knows what other decisions are being made now or in the future based off the same subject. If I was the office of SBG, INC I would most certainly take a look into this. I am speaking as someone who does not want to come back to Ring of Honor. I was fine before them I’ll be fine after them. I am speaking as someone with a great reputation for 15 years in this business and making sure that the truth is there and my name isn’t tarnished. I’ve admitted wrong doing. I spoke to the parties involved and ultimately was released because I didn’t know the personal life of Hunter. This is what happens when you to keep things under wraps.
In my opinion, he very much over reacted and I’m pretty sure most would agree. Over reaction and making business decisions based on a young female talent that you ar e sleeping with are not qualities of a leader.

Come on WWE, I understand he might have been overzealous but don't force him to sit out Mania for that if it's accurate.
Really it's the only logical reason I can see for Titus doing it.
Since you are the resident guy who is wrestling in a small indy fed I have to ask this. How many guys are there because they are doing it as a hobby? How many are there hoping to move on to bigger venues? And what is the average age of the guys your working with?
It's mostly 20s-30s, a couple in late teens. I'd say we have one young guy (Sonico) who wants to go big if he can , another guy in his 20s (Gringo Loco) who started a few months after me and is definitely better than me at his point and would certainly have a shot to move on to some bigger places if he had the time and/or inclination to really train beyond our small group and beyond lucha as well as hit the weights hard, and another guy who is good but with huge delusions of grandeur. But mostly hobbyists. We don't have a lot of us, but hoping to build up ranks.
Poor @AJR, he's the Goto of our resident wrestlers.
So it looks like I've missed this boat by 10-20 years then. I've been doing Crossfit for 6+ years and sort of fallen out of love with the competition side of it for various reasons and was looking for something to apply all that training to that also might be fun. I did some Wrestling in HS and did Kung-Fu for a while so I can move and am surprisingly agile for how I'm built. Plus I did Radio, Theater, and had my own Sports show for a bit so Promos wouldn't have been a problem. I know I wouldn't main event anything and never planned to.

And I went in totally out of shape, not having done any kind of real workout in a a few years. I was completely wrecked for the first month of training but I loved every moment of it and wouldn't trade it.
Find a local, reputable place and do it.
40 Exactly. I've seen Booker-T's school here (in Houston) and a couple of others. I might drop by next weekend and see how it goes.
Logical? This? Really? This is the ONLY logical reason? It's not even bordering on logical.
"Hey we're doing the end of a major show featuring the retirement of the most over guy on the roster through sad means, the boss is walking by, I'm gonna grab and pull him so his daughter can go first because ladies first"
That is the stupidest thing I've ever heard and if any part of that story is true, it's Titus pulling a story out of his ass. Vince comes out before Stephanie all the time, there was no reason at all for anyone, ever, to grab Vince so that Stephanie could go first.
Do it, man. The only thing you'd regret is if you never tried.
Also, make sure it is a good school. I've heard that some of those big name schools are more on the name and less on the school, so you can fork out a ton of cash just to say you went to a school with a big name on it. Plus, those places often just exist to get a kickback from WWE if they happen to find a diamond in the rough (probably polished somewhere else) that they can pass on.
I mean if you can cut a promo and are willing to work for a sandwich then you'll probably main event somewhere, and the promo part isn't even that important.
Seriously though you're already starting in a better place than most people who decide they want to learn to wrestle, age isn't really that big of a barrier quite frankly.
or, if you're cool
the during school special
I haven't really been keeping up with WVGCW, but the Splat Wres concept is super fun
Interesting.
