Let it be known that HBPunk's father can beat up all of our fathers and his band is better than our band.

thedamndest 08-27-2010 04:19 PM

That literally makes absolutely no sense. The id doesn't imagine.

MoFo 08-27-2010 04:22 PM

I liked her hardcore match with Ivory and she was tolerable with Bam Bam and Gangrel. RIP.

Dark-Slicer Diago 08-27-2010 04:34 PM

RIP Luna.

Tazz Dan 08-27-2010 04:48 PM

Damn. Used to love her character when she was around. RIP Luna. :wavesad:

She was dominant in RAW for SNES

My Final Heaven 08-27-2010 05:03 PM

I've seen many instances of her talking wlile not in "Kayfabe", shoot interviews & the like, & the one thing I picked up from all of it was that she had a true, deep respect for the wrestling profession as a whole. Not the glossy WWEstyle "WERE GUNNA MAKE A DVD OF RICKY STEAMBOAT CUZ HE WAS OLDSKOOL" seethrough shit, This was a woman who knew her history, knew what she wanted to do with her life from when she was a toddler & held "the business" in a higher regard than 99% of anybody else.

The 1st wrestling death I've been compelled to give my 2 cents about in a long time, Damn.

R.I.P. Luna... after a relatively quiet couple of years on the gone-too-soon-wrestlers front, this year has been quite active eh?

Has HB(S)Punk not been banned yet? Idiot.

I've been watching WrestleMania X the last few nights, she teamed with Bam Bam to take on Doink & Dink in a fun little match.

RIP

Jeritron 08-27-2010 05:23 PM

I don't think there's ever a quiet year

Juan 08-27-2010 05:23 PM

RIP Luna

So far this years big names were Kanyon, Lance Cade and Luna Vachon.

Last year was Buddy Rose, Test, Capt. Lou and Steve Williams.

2008 was Gary Hart, Killer Kowalski and SD Jones.

2007 was Bam Bam, Mike Awesome, Bad News Brown, Ernie Ladd, Sherri, Benoit (and Nancy/Woman too..) and Fabulous Moolah.


If anything, 08 was a quiet year and Id say this has been quiet so far up until recently.

Cool King 08-27-2010 05:37 PM

Damn. R.I.P. :(

I've noticed that the WWE have removed her "Where Are They Now?" profile from the main page but it's not actually been deleted. :-\

That would imply he was once relevant. We both know that's not true.

This one was kind of out of left field. Luna wasn't exactly forgettable per se, but years out of the spotlight, and you just kind of stop thinking about her.

Next Big Thing 08-27-2010 08:34 PM

2007 was the roughest in my opinion.

YoungFlyFlashy 08-27-2010 08:53 PM

Another thread taking a left turn at TPWW, what a surprise.

RIP to Luna!

Tom Guycott 08-27-2010 11:21 PM

So no more will we ever hear the phrase "THE BIIIITCH IS BAAAAAAAACK!" in her gutteral growl.

RIP Luna.

KayfabeMan 08-27-2010 11:31 PM

Have a LOT of respect for Luna.

I grew up around her here in FL, and had the pleasure of meeting her a number of times - including hanging around the lockerroom where she worked shows with Dave Heath aka Gangrel. Truly a very classy and genuine person outside the ring, and a GREAT talent in the ring. She could brawl, wrestle, talk on the mic, and had a great outlandish gimmick / persona. Also, she came from a VERY overlooked wrestling family. R.I.P.

Very true. She's now up there with her aunt Vivian.

crusnik 08-28-2010 12:43 AM

I would like to say first, R.I.P Luna Vachon, I think it's sad that any wrestler passes away.I believe arguing on this certain thread is pointless and idiotic and it disrespects the person's memory.while i agree on saying what is on your mind, right here n now is not it.let her rest in peace and move on, thank you.

DInsaneOne 08-28-2010 01:45 AM

R.I.P Luna Vachon

very sad to hear about her death, as just yesterday i was speaking to an old schoolmate and we were talking about the "good ol' days" (which is like 12 yrs ago) and he mentioned that he loved to play with Luna Vachon in wwf raw for snes, because for some reason he always got the secret move.

May God look after her 2 sons and take comfort in the fact that she is now looking down upon us all.

Furious Beardsley 08-28-2010 02:22 AM

RIP Luna

Always sad to see a former wrestler pass too soon, whether you liked them or not.

AfterShock8706 08-28-2010 02:45 AM

Damn this Sucks i just signed up today and my first post has gotta be on Luna Vachon Passing away that sucks i grew up watching Luna as the Main Squeeze of Bam Bam Bigelow and it sucks now b/c they are both gone but they will not be forgotten RIP LUNA and BAM BAM you will be missed

voncouch 08-28-2010 04:49 AM

Man, this one sucks. Luna was the first wrestler I ever met in person and got their autograph. I remember being so freaked out to meet her because of her persona, but being surprised at how sweet and gracious she was. I remember her having a cast at the time. My dad asked her, "What happened to your arm?" "Sensational Sherri, that's what happened to my arm!" A great worker and truly an original character.

RiX1024 08-28-2010 05:59 AM

Dang! another one gone, bloody hell in this wrestling world everyone is coming and going and it's a tad sad, another good talent gone, a unique look as well, RIP Luna.

Rammsteinmad 08-28-2010 12:45 PM

I remember when I was younger thinking all those veins/arteries on her face were real. I was only 5/6 though.


R.I.P.

jskinnyg 08-28-2010 12:53 PM

What a shitty run of bad luck for her and her family... She genuinely scared me and was pretty decent in the ring... RIP...

FourFifty 08-28-2010 05:41 PM

My heart breaks for the Vachon family. Rest in peace, Luna.

dronepool 08-28-2010 06:42 PM

Damn :-\

RIP Luna.

RIP Luna, I really did enjoy her work, and she did legitimately creep me out. Its horrible that she is gone now.

Xero 08-30-2010 02:11 PM

From PWInsider:

TMZ.com acquired the police report from the Pasco County Sheriff's Office filed in regard to Luna Vachon's death.

In their report, TMZ noted:

*Authorities found a box containing Oxycodone in Luna's kitchen, described as being found near a pile of "blue, chalky debris next to a small straw."

*There were "multiple prescription bottles and miscellaneous unsecured pills" in a bedroom.

*Also found was another small plate that contained more pill residue and another snorting straw.

The official cause of death will be released when the toxicology results from Vachon's autopsy over the weekend are retreived.

Xero 10-13-2010 01:46 PM

From PWInsider:

TMZ.com is reporting that former WWF, WCW and ECW star Luna Vachon's death was an "accidental overdose" of anti-anxiety and painkillers.

Vachon passed away in August.

MoonlightDrifter 10-13-2010 01:58 PM

Wow, I did not hear about this. Cannot believe this happened.
