Reminds me of Reddog, or Mad dog, who would later turn into Rodney Mack.

Watched the April 21,1997 episode of Raw. Still enjoying it more than 98 Raw.
Got the Sept. 22 1980 MSG show on with Vince McMahon and Kal Rudman on commentary. This should be amazing. |

I am of the opinion that that spot was worse than New Jack’s retaliation where he actually tried to murder Grimes.

Just watched the Dark Side of the Ring Macho Man one. Felt it was very rushed. Watching the Brody one. I wish these were 2 hours instead of 45 minutes.

New Jack likes to tell stories. He didn't actually do that. Grimes outshot his landing.

I have such an odd opinion about New Jack. He seems like such a giant piece of shit in the ring but in every interview he is so charming and engaging.

Yeah, loved that episode. Was it known that Brody was looking to buy Gorilla Monsoon's stake in the WWC?

I need to quit my job and just watch wrestling full time. This is more enjoyable. Lol watched a lot of wrestling during my vacation so far.

Melodramatic as it seems, you’d think there would be a lot more bastard children in wrestling.

I believe the Gorilla/Victor one way more than Paul and Gino. I don't think it's true

Paul who? I googled but other forums are very awful. I can only assume Hernandez but any Paul I can think of was born in the forties or later so they'd have to be like 15 to father the guy. |

The Gorilla/Quinones one is speculated upon in the affirmative by numerous wrestling biographers. I always consider it true if at least three guys I like mention it in a similar way in their bio's. Unless it's a Wrestlemania 3 or Haku story... Everybody and their mother was there for Wrestlemania 3 and every Haku bar fight.

Gertner, who got over with you that reasonably had no right to?
Stevie Richards and Crash Holly for me. Two smaller, less muscular guys who knew how to wring every drop out of their shitty gimmicks. I really loved seeing those two. |

Probably Heath Slater. I thought he was the absolute shits until he started doing the Legend challenge thing for the 1000th Raw. Then I became his biggest fan.

I know what my favourite territory is now. Took a few weeks and a real Network subscription but it's Mid South.
Mid South in 1980's was great. Realism, athleticism... a jobber intro to Michael Jackson... AWA was fun but poor quality as Gertner warned, Memphis was dumb fun with no shortage of gimmicks and I couldn't get past the shortage of cool in WCCW... I tried others a few times including Georgia but my preference is Bill Watts. Ban Noid |

I bet Gertner can name the jobber that intro'd to MJ too. Seems like the sort of thing he'd know. I won't spoil it but he was black so he probably ended up with a title.

Ohhh ok , I know him more as Mark Ragen. He was a protege of the Destroyer Dick Beyer. He got Ragen shots in places that he had no business wrestling.

Yeah he was really bad but his intro was cool and he even tried to dance a bit. They changed him from Thriller to Beat It or Billie Jean when he entered the ring so he had walk down and in-ring music consecutively. No reason why other than to remind people he was black I guess.

Caught up on all the Dark Sides of the Ring
The Brody one is hands down the best, but like I said before, these need to be longer than 45 minutes. They all feel so rushed. |

Is the Montreal one worth watching for someone who has seen all the previous pieces on it, heard every shoot interview from every side imaginable and basically seen the topic discussed ad nauseam?

I agree with Gert. But also, Bruce Prichard and Scott Hall make it pretty dumb. I like Scott, but he's a total knobhead throughout. Part of it to do with him hating Bret, I think.

I watched the Montreal one and didn’t think it was anything special. It was all stuff I had heard and seen before.
But lol at Scott Hall claiming he never asked Shawn if it was a work. Get outta here. |

it's ironic that in trying so desperately to be the smartest guy in the room that Hall comes off as so stupid.
