El Gallinero Gros posted:I'm enjoying Slamtasia V, but can somebody tell me more about Pazuzu? And more about the storylines of ISW in general. Team PAZUZU consists of Chris Dickinson (the Undisputed King of Crazy Champion), Pinkie Sanchez, JAKA and the tag team EYFBO, Mike Draztik and Angel Ortiz. Trying to come up with a crazy backstory would be bullshitting the organic nature of their stable; they're just five cats from New York City that have come up together and genuinely want to push each other to be the best in the world. There's a Satan worship gimmick to the whole thing, but the real nature of them all as friends and wild men is too good to cloud over with storyline poo poo, IMO. Storylines right now are kind of bare, as Slamtasia V kind of ended a lot of chapters for us (the Glaad Badd/Craigslist Homo wedding, the blowoff of Izzie Deadyet and Buxx Belmar, etc.). We set up a deal after the Lego Deathmatch on Slamtasia V where Dickinson came out and jumped Izzie Deadyet because he feels that the Undisputed King of Crazy title means more than the Inter Species championship that Deadyet holds and should be treated as the top belt ("your belt says 'champion' but mine says 'king.'"). The show coming up next month should get the ball rolling on a lot of things, topped off with a six man tag of Dickinson, Pinkie and Jaka against Deadyet, Matt Tremont and a partner TBA. Big thanks to anyone that checked us out tonight, or anyone else that was offering stuff up. I checked out that SMASH show throughout the night and the matches they book are bonkers. Glad to see things are on the up for them, definitely a good group of dudes. They've made a lot of strides with their production that make me more inclined to check them out in the future.

I wonder if House of Hardcore could get Samoa Joe for a night? HOH is the best chance we have of seeing TNA wrestlers in non-poo poo matches.

Not sure where to put this, but it's awesomequote:Vince Russo did an angle with the wXw promotion out of Oberhausen, Germany. Lead heel Karsten Beck had talked about a mysterious supporter who he would reveal on the first show of the year. On the 1/17 show, there was an eight-man street fight. Their champion Big Daddy Walter was on the winning team. Russo came out and congratulate him and introduced Beck, saying he was the mysterious sponsor of Beck and they had bought into wXw (storyline). Beck then challenged Walter to a title match right there. Russo then approved the match. Walter power bombed Beck but Russo pulled ref Tassilo Jung out of the ring. Sha Samuels, who is Beck’s tag team partner, hit Walter with belt shot. Russo took off his sweater, and was wearing a ref shirt underneath, and counted the fall, so Beck won the title.

Beau James is my favorite wrestler. The nepotism of SSW puts every other wrestling company to shame. I am in love with the fact that not only is his wife the top women's star in the company she also constantly hosts the TV show. She does this despite being able to string together four words before looking at cue cards. Everyone should watch SSW.

Beau James has a poor reputation with other local indies because he's taken advantage of kids in the ring. One time got cold cocked backstage for it. He's eased up on that with age. His wife is a good person, tho.

I got a copy of Beau James' book with my Kindle Unlimited subscription. It opens with like a million forewords.quote:He reminded me a lot of Jim Cornette at [17]. It's a legit story where he talks about meeting Dusty Rhodes when he was 8, but this line: quote:My fondest memory of Sunday afternoon wrestling didn’t take place at The Gym. In fact, it took place of all places at Kentucky Fried Chicken. His first show as a professional referee: quote:The national anthem played and off to the ring I went. I got in the ring and out came the first match. It was two masked guys. When I went over to check them, one told me a dirty joke. The other one had nothing to say but farted when he lifted his leg. That was the two highspots of the match. For the next 5 minutes, these two guys did what seemed to me as play-wrestle and laugh. The match ended with an attempt at a schoolboy rollup and I found myself rethinking not only being a ref but also a wrestling fan. quote:The dressing room was like a jail cell. Your spot was your spot. You sat your bag on one side of your chair, your briefcase on the other, a towel in your seat, and your jacket on the back of the chair. No one invaded your space. No one sat in your spot. Nowadays, guys will step on your stuff, sit in your seat, and move your chair , yet you’re an a** hole if you jump on somebody about it. I had to learn the lesson and they should too. quote:Your lessons back then were learned in the dressing room and the car rides. This does not happen now because the dressing room has turned into a zoo with play-wrestlers running around horse-playing, parading their wives and kids through, or rehearsing. Beyond that, most wrestlers don’t go more than 75 miles from home now. Why? Because they are wrestling for free or for whatever they can get and can't afford it. quote:Some go so far as to publicly attack people they don’t like or promotions that are smart enough not to use them. Funny, not too many years ago if you had trouble with another wrestler, you settled with flesh on flesh. Now they run home and hide behind a keyboard and take it to Facebook. The thing they don’t realize is that someday someone will slap them in the dressing room in front of everybody to prove a point. I had a wrestler a few years ago that I really liked until he started online with his take on wrestling and disrespected my opinions that I have gathered from years spent around a lot of smart people and my brothers who have passed. quote:Question: other than the actual boys who were in ECW, can you name or remember any of these hardcore hopefuls? Then came the American Lucha Libre boom, where events will reach a bigger audience. Every promotion that has based its product on Hardcore, Lucha, or whatever else I may have missed has had to stop doing it at some point or another. Why? Because they have limited their audience. They have either gone out of business or else stripped it down to the basics and gone back to WRESTLING. quote:K.C. and I had been somewhere around Lenoir to wrestle for a lady promoter we had both known for years named Kandy Ryan. As we walked in the building, a local wrestler named Tommy Ace came up to K.C. and started talking to him. Within 30 seconds, he had disrespected me and K.C. and had no clue he had done so. The boys who have known me and K.C. for awhile tell me that they know it’s about to hit the fan when they see K.C. put his hand on my shoulder. That is him trying to talk me out of what ever is in my mind. Luigi Thirty fucked around with this message at 05:33 on Jan 29, 2015 |

If you watch him wrestle, it's particularly galling for him to put down the guys who are green but spectacular, or work a high flying style in general (he seems to have trouble with either). The Young Bucks may have flaws, but they work all over the world and get pushed wherever they go, and are respected by their peers (mostly).

Why would an engineering teacher be mad at you for introducing an incredible student to them, even if it does put you out of business? I think your second edit hits it on the head. He's saying that with each generation of teachers/students, the teacher is less skilled, creating less skilled students, who go on to become teachers and so on. As you say, it doesn't seem to be the case at all in real life in either wrestling or in other fields. It's just something that older, obstinate people say. I think this talentless jobber says it best: "Daniel Bryan posted:Our generation just wants different things than what [the older] generation wants, and I think that’s a societal thing as well. There’s an older generation of people who say, ‘No, you guys should want this, you guys should want this, you guys should want this.’ Whereas our generation, a lot of us say, ‘No, we don’t want that, we want something different, and a lot of the things that you guys wanted, are the reason that the world is messed up. We need to change our value system.’ It's not really that the new guys are less skilled, it's that they're learning to work smarter and differently than the previous generation, which is a good thing. Then again, given this dude's archaic views on 'lucha' or whatever, this would be far beyond his comprehension.

Rich Swann canceled his Dreamwave appearance but they've replaced him with Shynron. Tommaso Ciampa vs. Moose Marshe Rockett vs. Roddy Strong Arik Cannon vs. Shynron vs. Chris Castro vs. Trevor Lee (Chris Castro is a considerably obese local-ish guy I think but I was really impressed by his agility and fire when I saw him work Johnny Gargano at their last show. Commentary said he also has a submission win over Ricochet in this promotion ) Matt Cage vs. Ariya Daivari (Matt Cage seems like the local ace for the Illinois promotions based on my v limited experience)
