http://twitter.com/NormDe_Plume is my twitter. I don't tweet but that's because no one I know uses Twitter, if I have some people to interact with that will probably change. Always willing to talk music with other music geeks.

I've been looking for some good fake gimmick accounts. I still can't believe how old Road Dog looked at the HoF, I mean he's never exactly had a youthful look but the grey hair adds on a couple of decades visually. Seeing the Iron Shiek twitter reminded me of something I've been meaning to ask for ages. Does Shiek get that he's making a fool of himself every time he does any kind of appearance? I always got the impression he has too much pride to consider that the smarky following he has is ironic to a degree. Sue Denim fucked around with this message at 23:08 on Oct 22, 2011 |

He just seems so legitimately angry in interviews I've seen that I thought he was just mixing shoot with kayfabe, hats off to him! It was probably the RF video Benoit documentary that threw me the most since that was obviously genuine and didn't seem all that different (minus the tears of course) to any of the promo's he cuts during shoots. He is a filthy old man though.... and that's a shoot, brother!

How can Axl even think this is a possibility when WWE barely seem to make us of their brain's trust of agents with skills far superior to Axl. Also, Randy Orton loving owns. You know a guy is humble when he still turns down unwanted sexual favours like an ordinary guy, with manners too! quote:There was a shoot between New Jack, Honky Tonk, and Sheik. At one point they all dropped their pants and mooned the camera in the name of Vince (Or Hogan, I forget) and New Jack had to help Sheik put his dick back in his pants, because Sheik absolutely didn't understand what was going on. What's this shoot like? I don't like New Jack or Shiek as humans, having them together sounds like an awful idea.

I imagine he'd have tons of amazing stories and judging by the stories he's prepared to tell he must have some incredible ones his lips are sealed on. Speaking of 'Scummiest Wrestling Stories.txt' as we were, could someone upload it again? I'm certain there used to be a link in a stickied thread but last time I looked I couldn't find it.

Flameingblack posted:Because he was X-Pac. That's all from memory though. Grantonio posted:X-Pac with an interesting couple of tweets. Like I said, it sounds like a rough ticket and he deserves all the credit in the world for overcoming it, he really is an industry poster boy for the way someone can turn their lives around and end up a better person for their difficult experiences. I hope WWE takes him one day, with the problem they've been having with a lot of talent hitting the glass ceiling and not being able to rise any further I think he'd be a fantastic resource for a lot of the talent to help get them to the point where they can work a main event level PPV match. It seems like that's a big issue in WWE because it's hard to learn without being given the experience needed to feel it out and it's near impossible getting the opportunities if you can't all ready do it, or at least that's how it seems to me from the outside. I could see guys like J-Mo, the Miz, Ziggler and Swagger really benefiting from his experience. It seems like the next batch of fresh main eventers are about ready to start moving up but they don't have anyone to guide them through the transition, especially since the previous generation all seemed to drop like flies within months of each other before being able to groom someone to fill their shoes.

Lone Rogue posted:Barrett was actually a bare knuckle fighter. It's barely ever played into his gimmick of him boxing people and he always plays more of an iconoclast. It's the funny thing about kayfabe and reality. In kayfabe, he's too good to get in mere punching fights with people but in reality, he used to make his riches beating the poo poo out of people in Northern Europe.

Golden Bee posted:Barrett's bare knuckle thing is, unfortunately, kayfabe. He used to play Rugby. SOURCE: William Regal, offhanded remark during other interview. The only reason I remembered hearing this was I was much more shocked to hear that he wasn't a bare knuckle fighter than was. He just looks like he'd be perfect for it. ...I wonder where that scar actually came from then.

Strenuous Manflurry posted:Mick Foley is being an insufferable child on Twitter, due to a "negative" review of his stand up act. Here's the link: http://www.gigglebeats.co.uk/2011/11/review-mick-foley-live-journal-tyne-theatre-newcastle/ All I really took from the interview was that Foley isn't at a professional standard for a comedian and that his show is very wrestling orientated. It really doesn't come off like the reviewer was trying to go out of his way to crap on Foley or was trying to get his review over by being overly harsh, it actually sounds like the reviewer cut him quite a bit of slack for largely being an amateur. Foley should really reassess whether comedy is right for him if he can't handle having his performance reviewed objectively to a negative conclusion. It seems like every since he tried writing books he's had the idea drummed into his head that his appeal extends beyond the world of wrestling as a fan-base and thinks because of this anyone who doesn't like his non-wrestling efforts is being biased. If you can't handle reading an unfavourable review of one of your performances the entertainment industry probably isn't for you. You really would think having wrestled for so long he'd be well past anything like this upsetting him. It's fitting though, for some reason I've always had the impression Foley thinks he's a lot funnier than he actually is and has always been a bit too forgiving of his short comings in non-wrestling ventures. I read his book nearly a decade ago, but I distinctly remember thinking that Foley hadn't put enough consideration to appealing to the books audience rather than himself when I was reading it.

I really wish they'd push their smaller guys more, it might actually be good for business. Do the WCW thing, get people excited by opening with some Cruiserweights, maybe the first couple matches, then they'll be hot for the bigger guys. Come to think of it he and Slater seem to have almost dissapeared completely from Raw/Smackdown which I think is a shame, I thought they were both doing well in the roles they had and were performing at a very acceptable standard considering their time spent and experience level within WWE. They both looked like bright prospects for the future. ...That and I marked for Gabriels zebra print every time.

That's sad, I feel bad for him. At the same time though I don't think you should be doing the things Necrobutcher does when you're someone's Dad. Edit: Maybe I've misunderstood? Is he saying he moved to be with his children and it's stopping/slowing his career and he's sad about this? Or is he saying he can't have a relationship with his children because of his career?
