That was actually Dutch Mantel. The only feuds Russo's had a big part of were Samoa Joe/Kurt Angle and Scott Steiner/Kurt Angle.

Alex Shelley is an underrated wrestler and performer, they should let him do what he wants seems how neither one of them can actually wrestle a match.

I also believe Shelley's gonna be big star someday, I mean if Nash sees somethin in him he has to be great.

Yeah, Dutch Mantel wasn't really brilliant for doing that. I don't want to sound anti-TNA or anything, but now that ROH is providing a true alternative (at least for the next year), Alex Shelley and Austin Aries should try and find a way out.

Both guys would be treated much better by Gabe.

How exactly is RoH providing a true alternative? Because they're going to do a couple of PPV deals, that's all it takes to be an alternative? Seriously? You know World Wrestling All-Stars did PPVs right?

I meant style-wise, douche.

Sometimes people are so fast to jump on the "Um! Excuse me, are you showing hope for a small company? There will be done of that here!" train it's funny.

This thread is about styles, and how TNA is now forcing their wrestlers to work their way. Very similar to what the WWE does. This whole incident reminds me of Paul London allegedly approaching Vince and protesting that should be able to do their own shit in the ring. London then lost the Cruiserweight Title to Nunzio, and started playing a whining character.

Ring of Honor lets its guys pretty much do whatever they want. That is how they are an alternative. If I had trained to be a wrestler, and had worked on all these things I felt comfortable doing, and that I knew I could excel at within my field, I'd be pretty pissed off at the company. Alex Shelley and Austin Aries have a right to be pissed off. I'm just suggesting they do something about it.

Sayanora ROH! Bye bye PWG!
I don't know if anyone reads this tripe anymore, really. I can't say I blame them. What once was a promising collection of memories/stories/accounts from all over the world, has since turned into a barely updated, dare I say dated, "blog".

Ah well, **** it, right?

However, I did wanna say something about two now former homes of mine. Those being Pro Wrestling Guerrilla in LA and Ring of Honor, residing in Philly. Due to unforseen circumstances, I won't be appearing for either anytime in the near future. However, as we all know, never say never in the wrestling business. I'm hopeful that one day I'll be able to appear again for both. But hey, everything happens for a reason!

I think it's best that instead of rambling on and on, I address my departures in the vein of an open letter to each company. Let's give it a shot!

Dear Ring of Honor,

It's been a long time, huh? In fact, sometime in late June would've been our 4 year anniversary. Can you believe I first went through your curtains when I was just 20? Bloody hell, I'm getting old. Scratch that, I'm gaining life experience and growing. You're doing the same too though!

Before I get too sentimental, I just wanted to say thanks for the early birthday present you gave me a couple weeks ago in Chicago. You know, that match with them Briscoe boys where I got to team with Sabin. What a trip. Maybe the best match I've had ever! And so much fun. Wrestling in matches like those are what makes every sacrafice worth it. The fans were awesome, it was great to see everyone again in the locker room, and I really think we did something special. And without you ROH, it wouldn't have been possible.

Sure, we've had our ups and downs. I had to take off for awhile because my shoulder was pretty knackered, and in the mean time, you had to take some time to yourself and test the waters, see if there's other people out there for you to turn into stars the same way you helped me! I'm glad we got that closure though.

Now you've gone and got on PPV. Congratulations, you've really come a long way. Doesn't it seem like just yesterday those whacky Special K kids were wrestling the Backseat Boyz? It wasn't too long ago that Tony Mamaluke and John Walters teamed together as The Purists, was it? And now Steve Corino's retiring! Unreal.

Anyhow, I just wanted to say thanks as this may be the last we see each other for awhile. Thanks for the great matches, the opportunities, the chance to travel, and generally helping me advance my career. On a less important note, tell Cary thanks for buying me sushi. Oh, and thanks for never cutting me with your gaurd rails. That's sweet of you.

Until we meet again, ROH! <3. -Alex

PS: Tell all those fans I wouldn't sign autographs for that it wasn't really my fault. Nana's money does strange things to people.

(Phew. That one was hard. One down, two to go.)

Heya PWG,

I know this is going to come as somewhat of a surprise to you, because we had a date on the 19th and 20th of this month. Well, granted, it was a double date, since you were nice enough to invite the Murder City Machine Guns/The Milennials/Panic in Detroit/The Echo Boomers into your house. Actually, come to think, it was more of a party with all the people there.

But yeah, we won't be able to make it. If I know you, you're crying right now. Or maybe you're crying and jacking wearing nothing but black socks onna hardwood floor. While sitting Indian style. Oh wait, that's Sonjay Dutt, actually.

Seriously though, thanks for everything. In February, it was our two year anniversary. And what a fun two years. Nothing super serious, just hanging out whenever.

I gotta give you credit, you've really had some killer shows since I started for you. And you know what? If it weren't for PWG, I don't know if the MCMGs would've had a home in the states. You guys believed in us, and that's awesome. Thanks to you guys, we've gotten a ton better as a tag team.

Thanks for the Easter gift too. Actually, I don't even know if you guys believe in Jebus. But you hooked it up so I wrestled Kaz Hayashi. Man, did I learn a lot from him. Since I saw him debut on Nitro in early 98, dude's been one of my favorites. What's better is how much he appreciated me as an opponent after we locked horns! Dream come true. Scratch that. Wet dream come true. You pick up what I'm laying down, PWG. I know you do.

So once again, thanks for everything. And by the way, tell your fans they're one of my favorite crowds to perform in front of. They were always super appreciative, and having that kind of crowd support sure helps ones confidence, which in turn helps one grow as a wrestler during matches!

Call me sometime if you just wanna talk! xoxoxoxoxo -Alex

(If I could, I'd send both promotions flowers for having fans that aren't nearly as annoying as the Orlando TNA fans who think the Border City Stretch is a Crippler Crossface and that the Skull**** is "gay". Tards.)

Well, that was tough. Onto bigger and brighter things. Like the new Muder City Machine Guns t-shirt that will be out soon, under the Since 83 banner! Takeeeee a look:

[insert shirt decal here]


Hopefully, this one sells as well as the previous ones have, eh?

On that note, Imma go play DragonBall Z on Wii. There's never a bad time to throw fireballs. Ciao! -Alex


Two "open letters" to ROH and PWG posted by Alex Shelley on his MySpace. Worth a read, made me laugh out loud (to use internet terminology) twice.

The Joe/Angle feud sucked a dick. Made no sense.

And given Russo's track record as the head booker, I'd say TNA is better off throwing millions of dollars into a burning barrel and saving themselves the time.
