Wrestlings "Where are they now" thread
 

Vampiro is in TNA

Actually quite afew of those guys are :-\

Vampiro isnt in TNA anymore

Taka wrestles in Japan now

Vampiro is in Mexico,and does TNA.

David Flair was working in Puerto Rico,and still does. He also does
select indy dates in the US,for promotions like Dory Funk's BANG!.

Marty Jannety works throughout mainly the south,and has recen-
tly formed a NEW 'Rockers' tag team with some independent guy.

Steve Blackman lives in the northern US,and does clinics and runs
(or ran) his own pro-wrestling / martial arts / shootfighting school.

Kronic - Brian Adams (Crush) lives in Hawaii,and isn't doing much.I
have no idea where Bryan Clark is - haven't heard anything at all.

Jimmy Hart helps out NWA-TNA and works regularly in Memphis in
a promotion.

Randy Savage lives in Florida and hasn't been up to much since he
released his rap CD. He sometimes makes appearances at charity &
other events,and usually goes to concerts whenever they are there
in his town.

Honky Tonk Man is mainly golfing,and does some indy bookings here
and there. He has his official site at: honkytonkman.com (I think).

Koko B. Ware lives in T.N., and works there regularly with the same
promotion that Jimmy Hart, Viscera, Jerry Lawler and others do.

Haku lives in northern FL and is a car salesman.

Mideon lives in northern FL,and works regularly with many many FL
based promotions. He's shaved his head,and has a big eyeball tatoo
on the back of it. He's also lost a lot of weight since his last time in
WWE.

Taka Michinoku works regularly with All-Japan,and teams with guys
like Jamal and others.

Macho Man Randy Savage has a singing career now.

:wtf:

So thats what that cd was meant to be. I assumed it was just a collection of noises some mad old guy recorded so old folks could keep cats and dogs out of their garden.

As far as I know, The Brooklyn Brawler is still employed by WWE. He just is in more of a backstage role now. They still occasionally pull him out for a match. Dammit, I want to see a Brooklyn Brawler / Eugene tag team! :mad:

Hype it up as "The Worlds Greatest Tag Team"



Well I know now that D'lo Brown and Essa Rios are in TNA-NWA.

Didnt the Dynamite Kid pass away?

Dynamite Kid isn't dead. He's alive,but in a wheelchair. Bitter about
quite a few things, and hates The British Bulldog - still to this day.

Tatanka lives in the St.Petersburg, FL area, and has a business of
his own in addition to taking a booking here and there. He has kids
and spends most of his time with his family now. He also has a site
at: www.NativeTatanka.com

Duke "The Dumpster" Droese used to live in FL and ran a wrestling
school there. He got tired of the business in FL,and I believe lives
in Alabama now - where he has family.

Kama (Godfather) lives in Las Vegas,and is running / working at a
nightclub. I recently heard that he may be the owner of the club.

Virgil / Vincent / Curly Bill / Soultrain Jones / Mr. Jones / whatever
now does lots of personal appearances at comic book shows and
sports conventions,etc... He drives a truck for one company, and
in exchange gets to set up and sell his photos,etc. at their shows.

so what ever happened to:

earthquake
tyhoon
gilberg
jim 'the anvil' naedhart
gangrel
orient express (tag team)
the iron sheiq

Why does the Dynamite Kid hate the British Bulldog.

Earthquake lives in FL with his wife and 2 children,and unfortun-
ately,recently he was diagnosed with cancer. You can check in
to see how he is doing at www.WrestleCrap.com (I also wish him
the best).

Typhoon I haven't heard anything from in a long time. Last I did
hear,he was living in Florida as well - but that was back about 2
years ago. Not sure now.

Gillberg lives around Maryland or Virginia,and works shows there
often. He also appeared on WWE a while back.

Gangrel lives in or around the Tampa area with his wife - lovely
Luna Vachon. They sometimes appear on FL indy events,and do
a good number of indy shows throughout the US. I heard he has
gained a bit of weight though.

Pat Tanaka of The Orient Express lives in FL, but has been over
in Japan for a while. He got some heat a while back for pulling a
scam on rookies by promising that he'd get them booked over in
Japan for a fee. They delivered a fee,but he didn't deliver on his
end.

King Kong Bundy - Still doing indy shows all over...

The Godwins - Mideon I answered above; "Henry Godwinn" is
retired from wrestling due to a bad injury. His son is quite big
and may get involved in wrestling at some point.

Hillbilly Jim - Still works for the WWE in their promotional dept.
He goes around for their autograph signings and such,and is a
very important person with bridging the gap between the old &
new fans.

Sunny and Skip - Candido and Tammy work regularly with NY
& NJ indy promotions. They ain't what they used to be....

Irwin R Shyster - Mike is in northern FL,and owns an auto part
shop / repair place there with his wife. His son is a great ama-
teur wrestler,and might eventually follow in his dad's footsteps.

Junkyard Dog - Sadly,JYD passed away quite some time ago in
an auto accident. A very underrated guy,in my opinion.

Jim the Anvil Neidhart - Last I heard he lives in Canada,and he
wasn't doing much of anything at all. I heard he doesn't drive,
at least not often,and usually rides his bike to most places that
he can.

this would be cool to see anyone found a pic?

There is nothing wrong with that. I usually do this as well in the Spring, Summer and Fall because of gas prices, plus cardio is always a good thing. But in the winter or if I have to travel very far, I'll drive, but I prefer biking it.

I definitely agree. To me,bike riding always is - as strange as it
may seem - relaxing to me. I haven't gotten a chance to ride a
good distance in a while,but once August/September hits and I
have time :y:

Also,to answer the question about the pic of his tatoo - I don't
know where you can find one online, but usually you can see it
(and Mideon) on Sunshine Network (if you get it) for MXPW on
Friday nights.

Glacier got married not that long ago. He lives in GA,and is a
school teacher - I believe he teaches sex education classes.

Major Gunns can be followed at www.TyleneBuck.com

Bart Gunn (aka Mike Barton) went to Japan after WWE. He's
known for being real tough, and has a great reputation over
there. He worked over there for a long while,and not that lo-
ng ago started taking shots in the US. He also turned up on
NWA-TNA,I think it was last year,against Saturn and others.

Juventud Guerrero works/worked sometimes with NWA-TNA;
he also works with other promotions around the US. Every-
thing that that guy has battled / is battling has set him so
far back. It's a shame too,because he really is quite good.

<font color=goldenrod>The Goon
Norman Smiley
Prince Iaukea
Sgt. Buddy Lee Parker
Alex Wright</font>

Nick Bockwinkle is still around. He travels to a lot of the con-
ventions and such. Not sure if he is retired or has investments
or such.

Nasty Boy Knobbs lives in Florida, I believe close to where his
pal Hogan lives. I don't know what he's up to,but there hasn't
been much about him since XWF went dry.

Justin Credible works US indies regularly (basically in the north-
east) and worked very briefly in MLW when it was open. He is
also a regular with All Japan.

Norman Smiley lives in Miami and works regularly for lots of FL
based feds. He's working a dark match June 21 for WWE RAW
in Miami. He also can be seen on Sunshine Network on MXPW.

Prince Iaukea lives in northern FL (I believe close to Tampa) &
hasn't done much in a while. I heard a rumor that he may have
moved to Hawaii - but don't know 100%. I know he worked for
a group/tour of Hawaii in January,with lots of other names.

Sgt. Buddy Lee Parker still lives in GA. Not sure what he is do-
ing nowadays though. Surprised that an indy group didn't ask
him to run their school; he may just have no interest in it.

<font color=goldenrod>Barry Darsow
Barry Horowitz
Bull Buchanan
Horace Hogan
Sick Boy</font>

I wish I could ride a bike.

:'(

Barry Darsow works as an account executive for a place in MN.
I understand he's a really personable guy,and is well liked by all
the people who meet / know him.

Barry Horowitz lives in northern FL and hasn't wrestled a match
in a little while now (to my knowledge). He used to work on an
internet wrestling radio show based in FL as well. You can che-
ck in with Barry Horowitz and e-mail him and all that stuff at:
www.MrTechnical.info

Bull Buchanan lives in GA and wrestles basically all the time over
in Japan,I believe with All Japan Pro Wrestling. He's usually work-
ing with guys like Jamal,TAKA,Muta and others.

Horace Hogan is/was living in Tampa, and was wrestling in Japan.
I haven't heard anything at all about him in over a year now,so I
don't know what is going on with him.

Sick Boy kinda disappeared,and I haven't heard anything about
him in a long time (since his developmental deal with WWE end-
ed a long time back).

<font color=goldenrod>Dave Taylor
Kendall Windham
Kenny Kaos
Lenny Lane
Lizmark Jr.</font>

Dave Taylor,last I heard,lived in GA. He worked a few indy
shows there last year sometime,with Bobby Eaton and ot-
hers.

Kendall Windham I believe lives in northern FL, as does his
brother Barry, and their father. Kendall did a while in jail in
the early 90's,as did his dad; in relation to a counterfeiting
operation that they were both involved in. I heard he may
have been working at a restaurant.

Kenny Kaos may still be living in GA, but I'm not sure. I've
not heard anything about him in quite a long time now. :(

Lenny Lane I think lives in Minnesota now,and I'm not sure
if he's still wrestling or not. Last I heard he worked an ICP
JCW show with Sabu, Abdullah, and a others. A few years
back he lived in F.L.,and worked there primarily with Barry
Horowitz.

Lizmark Jr. I think is back in Mexico. I see his name on the
results from there sometimes. I don't know really what he
is up to. - Awesome talent if I may say so.

Tony Schivonnie

The British Bulldog was pretty much an ass towards him, after Dynamite had "gotten his foot in the door" of the wrestling business. There was also a story in the Dynamite Kid's book about how he was hospitalized, & the Bulldog only came to see him once for 5 minutes, & he had a newpaper photographer with him.

Tony is in Atlanta,and does radio commentary for Atlanta Braves
games,and coaches youth baseball and such. He made an appea-
rance on "NWA-TNA" once, where he did a segment with Tenay.

Does anyone know where the team of Devine Storm has been lately?

Good question; I haven't heard any mention of them in a while.

Here are some tricky ones for you KayfabeMan:
(some of these I know the answers too, but I wanna see if you do too!)

- Bruce Hart
- Crash Holly
- Goldust
- Road Kill
- Shawn Stasiak
- Cuban Assasin
- Jim Duggan
- Ted DiBiase
- Iron Sheik
- Jimmy Snuka
- Road Warriors
- Headbangers
- Alex Wright

Here are some tricky ones for you KayfabeMan:
(some of these I know the answers to,but I wanna see if you do too!)

- Bruce Hart: I don't really keep up with the Harts too much,but I
do believe that he wrestled back in 2001 sometime. Not 100% sure.
- Crash Holly: Dead.
- Goldust: Accepting bookings through Howard Brody.
- Road Kill: Working primarily with Blue Meanie @ 3PW in PA.
- Shawn Stasiak: Living in TX,appears at signings at stuff.
- Cuban Assasin: Works with NWA FL and in the northwest,he also
owns a bar / restaurant of his own I believe.
- Jim Duggan: Lives in FL and hasn't been up to all that much.
- Ted DiBiase: Tours the world with his "ministry" deal. He can be
followed at www.milliondollarman.com
- Iron Sheik: Still accepts indy bookings here and there. I think
he lives on the east coast somewhere,but not 100% sure on him.
- Jimmy Snuka: Works indies, and worked with UPW not too long
ago on one of their big shows; I believe with Jimmy Snuka Jr.
- Road Warriors: Hawk is dead,Animal still works shows often,and
can be booked through his site (which escapes me at the moment).
- Headbangers: Thrasher lives in the northern US,and hasn't been
up to much. Mosh/Chaz lives in FL & works with indy groups there.
- Alex Wright: I'm not sure. A while back I heard he was in Germany,
but I don't know how true that that is. It's been a while since then.

KayfabeMan just FYI

Bruce Hart owns Stampede Wrestling and is head booker there. He is an active member of the wrestling roster, and usually wrestles every week.

Also, it is true that Alex Wright has been working in Germany. He teamed with David Flair there earlier this year.

Alex Wright has also been on the France wrestling circuit (didn't even know they had one).

Good work. A+
