  1. Irish support for Sheamus and the Rey Mysterio report

    Santino is indeed a canuck.
  2. Soulpower

    Hasn't logged on in a while. I think he's left us for goods. I also have noticed that The Dark Knight has been gone for even longer.
  3. Wrestler gone too soon

    I know also maybe there might be a temptation to send the cash to Wrestler's Rescue as well and while Dawn Marie's goals are very admirable and I respect the hell out of her now for it, it's just a band-aid on the problem and not a solution.
  4. Wrestler gone too soon

    Nowinski is only focusing on concussions with his Sports Legacy Institution. They also are focusing quite a bit on football, but they have had an impact in that arena as the NFL again made further changes to their concussion policy just this week. I mentioned it in the thread I posted about it...
  5. Wordlife326 For IWF Hall of Fame

    Okay that was pretty rofl.
  6. Umaga passes away :(

    I used to have a book called Ring of Hell. It was basically a tawdry expose of Chris Benoit and the pro wrestling industry and there was one quote in there from Scott Hall. I would give it verbatim but since I loaned it out and never saw the asshole again, I'll be forced to paraphrase. The quote...

    I would say that football and MMA are just as hazardous. But since these are "real sports" they get regulated. If football players played 300 nights a year, and MMA fighters fought the same amount of nights I guarantee that the mortality rates in these sports would be similar.

    The notion of a union is a nice idea but I think getting wrestlers classified as actors or athletes would be a great first step, then they can get a players association or SAG memberships.
  9. Umaga passes away :(

    Don't even start with the wellness policy, it's a joke. If it was serious more than half the damned roster would be suspended.
  10. Umaga passes away :(

    Vince McMahon is responsible in that he is well aware of the havoc his business practices wreak and he chooses to do nothing about it because he might lose a few dollars.
  11. Wrestler gone too soon

    No doing the totally wrong thing for business isn't Vince's fault at all. :rolleyes:
  12. Umaga passes away :(

    I retract my earlier statement and apply it to this one instead.
  13. Darrill "TITTIES" Schoonover Wants To Fight Rampage

    Seriously, I'd turn it around on him and make Titties be my nickname.
  14. Umaga passes away :(

    I think the saddest fucking part about all of this is that once again this will make no fucking difference at all. You'd think that the other wrestlers would rub the two brain cells they have left in their heads together and say that we aren't taking this anymore. But no, they're all to fucking...
  15. Umaga passes away :(

    Cut down their days that they work. They do an incredibly physical job, making them work that much is fucking torture. When someone is hurt, don't let them pop fucking pain pills and keep wrestling. Make them sit out. It's your fucking company.
  16. Umaga passes away :(

    So stop having them do it 300 nights a year for fuck's sake! Vince McMahon et al. make more than fucking enough money and given the pittance that professional wrestlers are paid in comparison to other professional athletes I'm sure he can afford to not cut their salaries. But fucking no, we're...
  17. Umaga passes away :(

    It's that kind of attitude that is shared by the masses that will ensure that nothing ever gets done.
  18. Umaga passes away :(

    That is the stupidest fucking statement I have ever heard from you.
  19. Umaga passes away :(

    Being a fan of wrestling for the past twenty one or so years this makes me so angry. When is this shit going to stop? I've had more than enough. Something needs to change.
  20. Umaga passes away :(

    He is now. http://www.f4wonline.com/content/view/11548/
