Does Brian Pillman Jr wrestle at all?

Watching you sleep.

Butt first, let's
check the feeds.

He's wrestled a couple of times lately on MLW. A match vs Dreamer and a tag match with Teddy. He seems very green.

i went to one of these wrestling shows and it was... honestly? frickin boring. i wanna see ricky! i want to see his gold chains and respect for the ftw lifestyle
i was there for the dreamer match. it really sucked!

e: i like pillman jr.'s characterization a lot, he just hasnt shown much in the ring yet. he's still pretty young though so he's got a lot of room to grow.

just looked it up, he's 25, still real young just not as much as i thought.

e2: i was not aware of the jordy peepee stuff!!

He isn't exactly Rocky Maivia in-ring potential wise. Has a charisma in vignettes though.

I think his Twitter use will sink him. Has an opinion on EVERYTHING and it is usually the opposite of the conventional/common sense. Rookies in Wrestling should be seen and not heard IMO. Brian Jr's Twiter tactics remind me of Cody Hall and look what happened to him.

Personally, have been giving him a few amount of latitude after reading the Pillman book and how much his mother frankly tortured him as a child. He retweets Jordan Peterson stuff a lot. I hope he matures and works through his issues I really do.

Want me to BLOW YOUR MIND?

Cody Deaner was originally a generic wrestler in Upstate NY named Cody Steele who actually wrestled Kurt Angle on Smackdown in late 2004 after impressing WWE officials during a tryout match.

Steele didn't get signed, so he scrapped the character entirely and became "Cody Deaner" in 2005.

So, there's a new local promotion starting in my area promising to "bring back the 90s" basically. And this is a promo from one of their "main event" talents.

Do we have a thread for "amazing" wrestling promos, because this needs to be in there

In my experience Catholic charities often go to actual people in need, but you usually should read the fine print to see how many of those people in need are Catholic clergy. But like, you're usually not donating to gay conversion therapy or something.

Then again that's bound to be regional/parochial and there's some rather Evangelical Catholic branches out there.

Yeah I realize these are more for the school themselves and not like CPCs or other anti-choice orgs/charities like I was originally thinking.

I think I'm just sore because I have lived next to my church for most of my life I've seen it become more and more evangelical over the years and more fanatical about abortion.
