Billy 'The Body' Corgan Enters Wrestling Business
By Marc Hogan on October 14, 2011 1:18 PM



Steve Austin. Jesse "the Body" Ventura. Now professional wrestling can add a new name to its impressive list of bald-headed stars: Billy Corgan. The Smashing Pumpkins frontman has formed his own professional wrestling company.

SP will be performing at Chicago's Riviera Theatre tonight as part of a tour to promote ninth album Oceania, due in late November. But Corgan is also acting as creative director of the new firm Resistance Pro, he told FOX News Chicago. "We're going to try to bring back to Chicago some of the glory days," he said, drawing a contrast with the more "entertainment"-focused WWE. "We want to go back to a little more old-school kind of feel." Resistance Pro's first wrestling event takes place November 25 at Excalibur in Chicago; more information is on their website.

Corgan is no stranger to the world of wrestling. In fact, rock music and professional wrestling happen to have a lot in common, he tells Detroit News. "You have a very strong indie scene, and a lot of times guys and girls build up their names there, and when they try to go to the big leagues they get a lot of [grief] from fans saying, 'You sold out,' etc," he says. "It's totally the same thing as in music." Also: Bob Mould. And that time Corgan was attacked onstage by a crew of Mexican wrestlers. Now it's only a matter of days before James Iha smashes his former bandmate over the head with a chair.

Fans disappointed by some of Corgan's antics during his band's most recent tour have wrestling to blame. He has at times played the wrestling role known as the "heel," as opposed to the good guy or "babyface," he acknowledges to Detroit News, saying audiences "just aren't sophisticated enough to know that I'm playing around." But this time he isn't playing, he says: "That guy's been put to bed. I'm babyface from now on."

http://www.resistancepro.com/

Bill Savage went over to the (Stu Hart) house and one of the Hart kids was running around with his hair wet. Savage asked why his hair was wet. Stu said, "the little bast--d broke a vase this morning, so I stuck his head in the toilet. Want me to show you again?"

So is Corgan gay? I don't really follow celebrity personal lives, but it's pretty much the only reason you tend to post things.

LOL at the way this is worded. We want to go back to how wrestling was before it was entertaining.

No, it's because it was worded clumsily, you fucking retard.

Does your brain go straight to the dumbest possible accusation naturally, or did you have to train it to do it?

He sounds like an idiot. You go to a wrestling show expecting a bad guy to act the part. You might go to a comedy show expecting to be joked about. I don't know of too many people who go to a music concert expecting the singer to be a jackass.

Nickelback/Metallica fans?

Anyway, I'm not sure he was acting. This is a dude who sickened associates of Korn and Manson. His reputation has cost the band a decent bit, which would probably be a bigger deal if they weren't so big losing management or tour dates now and again isn't even worth losing sleep over.

But since the IWC is like 90% self-loathing sociopaths, I predict he'll be a smark darling.

Seth does it all the time. You say something "bad" about something he likes, so it must be a systematic hatred of it.
