lol, he's like 241325-years-old.

[Xero]

I'll always remember him as Flash Funk.....

[KingofOldSchool]

And I'll always remember Vinne Mac dancing to Flash Funk's music. :lol:

[Nowhere Man]

I always thought Scorpio was rather under-rated, but nowadays I can't imagine him doing all the fun high-flying stuff he used to do. I mean, look how far the Steiners have fallen since their heyday.

Still, if he's still got it, then more power to him.

[KingofOldSchool]

I read in Foley's book that he has a big...umm splash. :shifty:

[Rob]

Thought he was over rated personally. Benoit made him in WCW.

[Boondock Saint]

I just watched his match with Benoit on the DVD last night. Good stuff. I don't know much about this guy though

[The Mackem]

This guy was in the J.O.B squad right? Or am i getting him mixed up with Flash Funk?

[DaveWadding]

he was flash Funk

[The Mackem]

Whatever happened to Flash Funk?

[Rob]

He changed his name to Scorpio, left WWE for Pro Wrestling NOAH and now lives in Germany. The main man Joey Radd says he is working for Ring Of Paedos now too.

[The Mackem]

He changed his name? That big sell out. The funkettes will be turning in their graves.

[Rob]

Well he changed his name to Flash Funk first

[Rob]

Why do I remember the funkettes being ugly too?

[The Mackem]

Because you have Funkette Flashbacks?

[mitch_h]

I saw some of his work in NOAH and I thought he looked a little "larger" in the stomach area. But anywho I was at the ROH website and looks like he is going to be in a fatal fourway with Ace Steel Alex Shelley and Jay Lethal

[The Mackem]

How many more appearances is Shelly going to make before he's sole TNA?

[Ferocious]

My most prominent memory of the guy was in a match he tagged with Al Snow (Who had been reinstated after beating slaughter in a boot camp match)

Anyways the tagged against Too Much, An early incarnation of Too Cool whose gimmick sucked even worse.

Scorpio Whipped Brian Christopher into the corner, placed an unfolded chair infront of him and went for a Poetry in Motion type move.

Only for the chair to collapse as he took off. He went arse over tit and only just hit Christopher, who sold like hell and dropped to the floor lol.

That's the exact same memory I have of him. Strange how things like that leave such an impression.

[Funky Fly]

Yeah, rememberf those crazy boots he would wear as Flash Funk? Damn son!

Actually i've seen some of his stuff from Japan recently and he still had it, he was a bit overweight, but still hit a moonsault and 450
