THE WRESTLING THREAD: HHH KEEPS DOING HHH THINGS.....
- Thread starter ArsenalCannon357
- Start date
So they've finally seen what we all see and that's Stephanie has no business being involved with the creative department
i bet that incident ended w/ stephanie threatening to slap the shit out of kaitlyn
Wouldn't doubt it but that's why turning him now is too fast, just like taking the belt off him was too fast. The split between them should have been a slow burning thing but now they have to split them.
Bruh, they popped for big Mark when he slammed Cena. I'm almost wondering how they'll screw it up next week. Ryback got a big pop too when he turned on Cena and you see how they killed him in that horribly booked feud.
I think ADR had more run in him as a face but they just don't book faces well and he was suffering.
Damn good point on Miz. He's just got a "I wanna smack the shit out of him" face and has some good charisma as a heel.
They have done literally 3 turns in two days worth of shows with something bound to happen with Bryan and/or Orton and that's coming off turning Ryback just as he was starting to get over. I'm starting to think Russo is back.
Damn shame how they did him. He pissed off someone when he was doing color on Smackdown (he was making Lawler look like a joke when they did a couple ppvs together) and they've been killing him ever since. As soon as he didn't get the color gig on Main Event and they gave it to the Miz, he should have been looking for other options.

true, I keep forgetting that it's the lil kids that like Cena while the grown ups can't stand his ass, I remember when Lesnar came back and gave his ass the F-5 the RAW after WrestleMania, only bad thing for Henry is most everyone knows he's not going to defeat Cena for the belt...another thought, what about Ryback now ? who will he face ??? Santino ? Jericho ? maybe even Fandango ??...WWE killed his push so quick it wasn't even funny
Hell if I know. That's a good question. They shouldn't have turned him, at least not on Cena. He was starting to really get over as a face and now he's lost to Punk, Cena, the Shield, and Mark Henry.
I guess he needs to go over on whoever he faces next so maybe Kane or Jericho, a vet who doesn't mind doing jobs.
If they really want him to be a main eventer, he should beat HHH.
THE GREAT JACKIE FARGO PASSES AWAY
by Mike Johnson @ 9:34 AM on 6/24/2013
Jackie Fargo, 85, one of the greatest wrestlers to ever work the Memphis territory and the originator of the "Fargo Strut" so many wrestlers have emulated over the years quietly passed away at 6 AM this morning following a long battle with congenital heart failure.
Fargo was found unconscious in his North Carolina home and rushed to the hospital last week, where he remained in critical condition. He had been battling congenital heart disease for some time. At the time of his hospitalization, only 15% of Fargo's heart was working.
While wrestling fans today will forever equate Memphis Wrestling with Jerry Lawler, before there was a "King", there was a Fargo.
Fargo worked for a number of territories during his career but will be forever intertwined with Memphis Wrestling. However, he worked in Georgia, the NYC predecessor to the WWWF, and lots of groups across the Mid-West. He held several versions of the NWA Tag straps with Don Fargo and the Southern Tag Team belts with everyone from Lou Thesz to Jerry Jarrett.
A great interview, Fargo was a wild, roughhouse brawler. While everyone today thinks of Jerry Lawler as the King of Memphis, the crown, the throne and the hearts of Memphis Wrestling fans belonged to Fargo for many, many years before Lawler's name was ever uttered on TV.
Although Memphis would consider him one of their own, Fargo is actually from China Grove, NC. Fargo broke into the business in the Carolinas working for an "outlaw" group (what would today be considered an independent group; it was outlaw because it ran the same territory as an established NWA group without the NWA blessing.) as Dick or Dickie Bishop, depending on the area.
After a run in the military, Fargo returned to the business and actually worked on top for the New York territory that preceded WWWF in the 1950s. It was there that promoter Toots Mondt realized that Jackie and another wrestler, Don Kait, would work well as a heel duo. The Fargos were born.
Managed by Bobby Davis, the duo carried themselves as completely arrogant villains with blonde died hair, purple and red outfits, sequined jackets and top hats. The duo were white hot as heels and even headlined in Madison Square Garden in 1957.
By 1958, the duo had hit Memphis, which was never, ever the same. It became the epicenter of Fargo's career, although the team continued touring for a number of Southern areas with runs in Chicago as well.
Fargo worked for most of his career as a crazy, brawling, cocky heel. Those qualities, not unlike Steve Austin many generations later, led to the audience eventually embracing him as a massive super-hero babyface.
At times, even Fargo needed help to even the odds. "Roughhouse" Sonny Fargo would be introduced, with the idea that he was locked away in a nuthouse and would be brought out when dire circumstances called for it. Fargo was known as a crazy brawler, so when Roughhouse, the one so dangerous he needed to be locked away, was set loose, Memphis became unglued with the excitement of the heels getting theirs from the Fargos.
While Don Fargo would go off in his own direction and work under lots of different guises, Jackie was set in Memphis by the 1960s and working there full-time.
Fargo was also responsible for breaking a local artist named Jerry Lawler into the business. Lawler, who was discovered by announcer Lance Russell after the Memphis TV show host received artwork showcasing what happened at the weekly Mid-South Coliseum events. Russell began using the art regularly, setting Lawler on his own journey into wrestling immortality. The young Lawler worked for Fargo painting and creating signage for his side business. This was Lawler's foot in the door and Fargo became his trainer, mentor and at times, opponent.
Fargo officially retired in 1980 but remained a colorful figure in Memphis Wrestling as the manager and springboard for The Fabulous Ones, Stan Lane and Steve Keirn, who at one point were the hottest tag team the territory had ever seen. Fargo bestowed the strut upon them as part of their personality, which they accentuated with beards, tuxedo-like ring outfits and other Chippendales style garb to draw female fans (which they did, by the bus load).
Fargo would occasionally come out of retirement to team with the duo or Lawler as well. Even as the years went on and he became older, Fargo was a regular presence for pro wrestling in the South. He was brought in to help bring additional "oomph" to major events and was the referee who counted the pinfall when Lawler pinned Curt Hennig to win the AWA World title. He was the living legend.
Fargo was honored in 2009 by the NWA Legends Hall of Heroes. He was a big part of the awesome "Memphis Heat" documentary that was released a few years ago and will always be synonymous with wrestling in that city.
Funny, funny guy who was second only to Sputnik Monroe for having the best interviews on the "Memphis Heat" documentary on the Memphis territory (worth checking out).
That strut Jeff Jarrett does to this day that people think is a "Ric Flair strut" is really his ode to Jackie Fargo.

"I know I look good, this ain't no Mens' Warehouse...."
Mark be killin' these dudes man..... Best heel in WWE.

Mark's one liners are better than anything they script for him. He's another one that shows they need to stop scripting everyone.
But I did want to hit two things
A. When he stopped talking about Mark Henry and talked to Mark Henry, his promo was pretty good and the best I've seen him do in a while.
B. Good to see the Usos get a high profile title shot. I don't see them beating the Shield but at least they're in the ring with them.
Yeah ol Johnny boy surprised me with the whoop ass season line. Pretty good promo last night.
Daniel Bryan next to punk is the best face on TV, he needs to be main Eventing. I just wish he'd cut that homeless man beard lol.
Why the fuck is Kane even in the mitb? That's y2j spot and they are wasting it. Hopefully Jericho can help get ryback over I'm actually starting to like him since the heel change. They needed someone who was a asskicking wreckingball.
Was that a ptp spotting last night or was I drunk? Them niggas never wrestle anymore.
Man fuck what you heard kaitlyn would get the dick every night and morning. That bitch is sexy as shit to me.
Jacqueline and Big E have the same titties.
i guess theyll be kicking Taz out of A & 8s 
UPDATE: Taz Hints at Potential Jump to WWE
Posted by Jeremy Thomas on 06.26.2013
More details on his contract expiration...
UPDATED: PWInsider reports that Taz's contract could be ending earlier than believed, with a source noting that his final contracted appearance could happen as soon as 's Impact Wrestling taping. That taping is for the episodes on July 4th and July 11th.
ORIGINAL: Take this as pure speculation, but a now-deleted Tweet by Taz has raised speculation that he may be jumping ship to WWE. The TNA announcer posted the following to Twitter today:
Couple of big wrestling shows in my "hometown" of Brooklyn! #RedHookNearBarclay
The tweet is no longer present on his account. WWE is taping Raw in the Barclay Center on July 15th, their first Raw in the venue. Sources within TNA have confirmed that Taz's contract with the company is set to expire in a couple of weeks and while TNA is running a Brooklyn show on July 5th, it is not in the Barclay Center but rather MCU Field, which Taz made no reference to.

I'm not sure how I feel about that. Same thing with RVD. WWE has many young stars they could push, but they put them on the sidelines for a chance to "steal" away TNA talent for some upperhand.
That's the plan apparently. Dude is getting like three segments every week. Nobody is getting that much time on Raw.
Dead wrong.

I don't get this part. If Taz says there are a "couple big shows" coming to Brooklyn and WWE has one and TNA has one, isn't he referencing both shows?
I agree. What are they going to do with Taz anyway? They have more announcers than they have shows. They let Matt Striker go but now use Alex Riley on Superstars in his place. Sometimes Josh Matthews works on Smackdown, sometimes he doesn't. I guess they could find a spot for him but it would really just to be taking someone from TNA, a company so far behind (in America) they aren't even real competition.
175. Austin got pissed off at Raven one time in the locker room because earlier in the day Debra (who was his wife then) was cutting a promo near the showers when Raven came out of the showers wearing nothing but a towel. Austin hears this and confronts Raven because he thought that Raven was "showing off" in front of his wife (Raven supposedly has a big dick) and basically choked Raven while threatening him verbally until Raven told him that he didn't know that she was there. Austin then apologized and Raven understood because the wrestlers knew at that time that Austin was VERY protective of Debra then.
203. Back in 1995-1996 in ECW, Raven was banging Francine. I think everyone knows he likes to degrade women... a lot. Well he would choke her, slap her, tie her up, call her names, spit in her face, etc. But what finally broke her was when he fisted her while she was tied up. She started crying so he stopped but didn't untie her. So he started sticking the hotel remote control in her, which he did at every hotel room they stayed in. She was cool with that. But then he broke out the coffee cups and she finally left him when he untied her.
204. Sable used to live in a trailer park before she met Mero. They have a bogus "how we met story" they tell everyone. The truth is that he met her while he was in WCW on the road... at a strip club. She was a stripper who offered "extras" for a price. Mero was impressed with the service and asked her to come on the road with him. She did. Mero didn't have any interest in making it a serious relationship though. He just wanted a regular piece on the road with him. So he started pimping her out to the boys a little bit. I know of at least five boys who took Mero up on it before she got pregnant. When she got pregnant Mero, as a part-time Christian, did the honorable thing and married her. Once the pregnancy was "handled" Sable continued to bang the boys but this time it was done w/o Mero in the know. She is apparently really into three and four way "dances" with her in a handicap match of sorts. BTW, she tells the boys they cannot wear condoms because she is "allergic" to them. I know one guy suggest lambskin but she wouldn't allow it because she is a vegan. The guy said, "Well you don't have to eat it." That made me laugh.

Ex-WWE Wrestler Doink the Clown Found Dead in Apartment
Former WWE wrestler Matt Osborne, or the original Doink the Clown, passed away at the age of 55. According to TMZ, he was found dead by his girlfriend in her apartment in Texas on Friday morning, June 28. Cause of death is currently not available.
The police in Plano, Texas reportedly launched a homicide investigation as standard procedure. Indications are that his death was accidental. There were no weapons found on the scene and autopsy would be carried out later.
WWE offered condolences in a statement in official site. "WWE is saddened by the news of Osborne's passing. Our deepest condolences go out to Osborne's family, friends and fans," the statement read. WWE said that the late wrestler "made major impact in WWE" and was described as "one of the most enduring personas of the early 90s."
Osborne is the son of a famous wrestler "Tough" Tony Borne. His father once challenged for the NWA World title and he was popular in Texas and Pacific Northwest area. Osborne later made his debut at the same territory after being trained by his father.
Osborne is known for his trademark clown costume, bright green wig and face paint. He pulled pranks on fans at the ringside and later he also did the same to the late Bryan "Crush" Adams in a Wrestlemania tournament. Teaming up with an identical Doink the Clown, he used a fake arm to slap Adams.
After leaving WWE in 1993, Osborne started wrestling in independent wrestling tournaments. Recently, he attended wrestling conventions and had signing sessions with fans.

Shti man they might need to have Mark write for all their big man because aside from Kane all of their scripts suck.....
And yea i'm glad for the Uso's too. They don't get much of a reaction from the audience from what I can tell. I don't get that. But atleast they getting a push. I'm not sure if I prefer them heels or faces. I guess they can be both.
I'm not sure if any of these are true .... but they're all freaking hilarious. If these are lie, then WWE needs to hire the whoever wrote this to come in and punch of their comedy scripts.
My condolences to Matt Borne, Jackie Fargo, and GLOW's Big Bad Mama. Bad week for wrestling in that dept but pretty good for tv.
Just scanning and going from various sources
Not sure about the 20 seconds part but Dusty definitely was going to have Flair do the job to Steiner at Starrcade. Part of the reason he got fired from WCW.
They just reopened this investigation but the part about Vince isn't true.
Sheik says Verne Gagne offered him the money in retaliation for Hogan leaving the AWA. Hulk was lucky Sheik didn't do it. If he wanted to, he could have and Hulk couldn't have stopped him.
Yep.
This probably isn't true but it used to be standard custom for guys to pay a deposit of 25k when they were awarded the NWA title. When they dropped the belt, they got it back with interest, if any. That was a major thing when Ric Flair left WCW with the NWA title belt.
Kinda true. Andre did that but Kamala didn't pull a pistol on him, just confronted him in the lockerroom. He did admit to first carrying a gun then a knife to the ring whenever he wrestled Andre for a while afterward.
Not what happened at all. They got into a fight but Dundee gave as good as he got.
Of course. They even did an angle about it when Patera went back to the WWF.
Bobby is a great guy but he is an alcoholic and it's ruined his family.
Confirmed by Dusty.
Confirmed by several wrestlers that were there except it wasn't his nose, he pulled out his eye. Literally.
yep, dude even talked of making a documentary with his footage
yep
yep
Well known story
Yep. Orndorff whooped a lot of ass in wrestling.
I'm tired now but there are some others that are definitely true in here

Kinda true. Andre did that but Kamala didn't pull a pistol on him, just confronted him in the lockerroom. He did admit to first carrying a gun then a knife to the ring whenever he wrestled Andre for a while afterward.
Not what happened at all. They got into a fight but Dundee gave as good as he got.
Of course. They even did an angle about it when Patera went back to the WWF.
