May 19th
On this day, of all days, we must remember history in the making!

1536 - Anne Boleyn, the second wife of Henry VIII of England, is beheaded for adultery.

1604 - The town of Montreal is founded.

1828 - U.S. President John Quincy Adams signs the Tariff of 1828 into law, protecting wool manufacturers in the United States.

1919 - Mustafa Kemal Atatürk lands at Samsun on the Anatolian Black Sea coast, initiating what was later termed the Turkish War of Independence. The anniversary of this event is the official date of commemoration of the Pontic Greek Genocide in Greece and Cyprus.

1921 - The Emergency Quota Act passes the U.S. Congress establishing national quotas on immigration

1962 - A birthday salute to U.S. President John F. Kennedy takes place at Madison Square Garden, New York. The highlight is Marilyn Monroe's infamous rendition of Happy Birthday……Kennedy!!!!!

1971 - Mars probe program: Mars 2 is launched by the Soviet Union.

2006- A bad movie called See No Evil comes out staring Kane, pissing off movie goes everywhere, and still upsets one wrestling fan who has a tattoo of a Kane’s mask

Wait…. Isn’t there something we’re forgetting?

May 19, 1996



Today of all days we should just jump on the bandwagon, and say K4L!!!

However, I don’t want this to be unwarranted, blind, fan boy worshiping. Some people believe that Triple H was going to win the King of the Ring in ‘96, but due to the incident at the garden he jobbed out to Jake Roberts, who then lost to a man in black trunks with a venomous mean streak, Steve Austin. If I need to tell you why this is important to wrestling history then you’re either intoxicated, or you have no idea where you are, possibly both.
Triple H, HBK, Hall, and Nash have all busted their asses off to make it to where they are today. While it’s true some people took a better route than others they’re still names that’ll draw attention to a card. Hall has his drinking buddies, Nash has a small cult following, HHH is headline PPVs, and HBK can draw a crowd without any titles on the line. Four talented in ring performers, all four have had their obstacles, all four of them stood in the same ring on May 19, 1996, as friends. To hell with kayfabe, friendship comes first.
