--------------------------------------------

Not much going for this day. You know this day really sucks when Sharkboy winning a Title is a highlight.

Doug Gilbert is the half brother of Eddie Gilbert. He was famous for doing like a Freddy Kruger or Jason type character down south. Those southners love thier monster gimmicks.

Sharkboy held a heavyweight title? Wow.

I really love these LC. While there's not much to reply to these I love reading them. (This would be GREAT for the main page, you should talk to Triple A about this)

yea, I've always enjoyed reading them. There fun. I try to add whatever knowledge I can to them

poor Tajiri had to wrestle in CZW

Hey, any chance on there being any 'This Date in Wrestling' for Feb 29th?? Given that it only occurs every 4 years I don't know if there'd be anything that had gone down. Could be interesting though.

Have you seen the main page? Fucking ANYTHING would be an improvement.

Yeah WTF?

Did not know about that.

I stopped checking a while back tbh.

You should def post these on the main page. :y:

He only wrestled 2 shows I believe. CZW was bringing in a bunch of ECW guys around that time.

I like when you post these LC, its just sad when John Zandig is ever mentioned in wrestling history.

if I start putting these on the front page, would you guys still want me to post them here? I kind of like them here as well.

Go nuts.

Yeah do both (Is there a way to post them in the headlines forum? They'd fit in there...)

I second the headlines forum request.

yea, I think I can do that.

2002 - Crossrine debuted and won the hardcore title from The Rock
