Example 12345 On How Easy It Is To Smack An Idiot On Twitter (Updated 4-21-20 2:00 am)

The idiots always come, especially when they think, they know it all but really don't. And then when i give em a good smack, they just continue to be stupid enough to keep replying and I just continue, to easily put them in their place. It never takes much effort and as you can see b y the following. This latest ass clown is just another example of how easy it is.. To put someone in check with facts on Twitter.. And they aren't smart enough to shut up so they keep replying, making themselves look even more like a f'n moron.

This started because of this story here. https://billsbrandnewblog.blogspot.com/2020/04/joe-pedicino-passes-away.html  On Joe Pedicino passing away. That I covered, OVER Three hours  before Meltzer and his crack crew got to it (and only got to it because I left a link to it this site somewhere on their Twitter site).

So of course you know at some point some Melzer kiss ass is gonna come strolling along and try and start shit. Like a rerun you can predict it and here he is. After carefully explaining that they only put it up AFTER I posted my link on  their site.. He couldn't grasp the fact he was proven wrong, or didn't want, to grasp the fact so what does he do? The same thing all the others try to do when they no longer have an argument that brought their dumb asses to me in the first place and he tries to change the subject (which is proof he knew he got punked and decided to use that so predictable yet typical way to try and avoid that fact) by trying to allege I have no viewers of this blog. So like the others that have tried, failed and got chumped thanks to me. You'll see how easily that argument put his ass in check.


I mean come on, it's pretty obvious the chart is legit. This site is on Blogger, the viewer chart is what Blogger tracks, so how in his small mind does he think it's not legit, is a mystery. I guess the logic is, use any excuse to try and sustain an argument than have no excuse to cover the fact you have, no argument, is the way he went.

Then of course he claims I'm 'insignificant".. Yet HE, was the dumb ass who came to me first. if I'm so 'insignificant' then why did he bother to begin with? DDUUHH! Dumb ass. These idiots will never learn, I swear. What makes this guy just as dumb as the others is he keeps replying, though he's the one who claimed I'm 'insignificant', if that's the case why does he keep replying trying to redeem himself after he was promptly, many times put in his place? Other than he's too stupid to know any better you can never get a believable answer out of clowns like this.

And to show you what a clown he is, I openly said if I'm so insignificant you won't reply anymore. I don't know how many ways i dumbed it down for him to grasp the fact he really should just stay quiet. But, as you'll see. He wasn't smart enough to 'get it'. And this mind you, is a guy who claims to be a 'former' Pro Wrestling Torch contributor. I bet Wade Keller and Bruce Mitchell would be proud to see what an idiot they had at one time 'contributing' to them.

Of course he's a WWE fanboy too, like a robot he's programmed to watch a shitty WWE show when there's way better product to watch elsewhere. And of course when I call him out to not reply anymore, what does the dumb ass do? Replies again. 

Makes you wonder where, these idiots come from, and why is it, there's just ssoo many of them roaming out there. But, they wanna roam my way and try their shit, I'll continue to make jack asses out of them. Doesn't take much effort as all, as you can see. Too bad idiots like this aren't cable of at least, making it a challenge. Too easy, WAY too easy to put clowns like this in their place. Some day they may learn but from the looks of it, it won't be any time soon. 

And proof that he didn't learn comes right now. Look at how he again attempts an insult, and fails.

Too bad he neglected, or was too lazy to go and include this to his attempt at an insult.


Yeah, of course he's gonna choose not to show that, which goes to show why he's such an idiot and clowning this moron continues to be so easy to do.. I guess when it comes to making it something resembling a challenge, he's just that incapable of doing it. Not surprising as not many people have that capability. And this moron keeps proving he's just that, a moron .  Boom. 














JOE PEDICINO PASSES AWAY

Joe Pedicino, who over the course of his career has hosted and produced a number of professional wrestling series and worked as a commentator for World Championship Wrestling, passed away on 4/12 at the age of 70.  Pedicino had been ill for some time after suffering a stroke in June 2019.

Pedicino was involved with and created a number of professional wrestling television projects, including the late-1980s syndicated series This Week in Pro Wrestling, which he created and produced as well as co-hosted with Gordon Solie.  The excellent series featured clips from across the world of pro wrestling, including at times specific WWF interviews for the series, and covered breaking wrestling news stories.    Bill Apter and later, Paul Heyman would appear on the series regularly.  The show provided a lot of exposure for smaller, regional and international companies to get their material out across the United States in ways that would not have been possible beyond the wrestling magazines of the era.  That series from January 1987 ran through March 1988 with a storyline ending that Paul Heyman had brought the show and ended it.

Pedicino also produced and hosted a syndicated eight-hour block of professional wrestling content alongside Solie and Blackstone out of Atlanta, where he has been based for decades, running that package from 1986 through 1992.   WATV-TV in Atlanta was the nucleus for the package, which aired on Saturday nights from 8 PM - 3 AM Eastern with new host segments built in as wrap-arounds.  The syndication package was an idea Pedicino brought to the station after having only been working for their sales department for about 6-8 weeks, somewhat inspired by what horror host Elvira was doing with older monster and horror films.   The package would feature material from different NWA member promotions, the WWC in Puerto Rico, Continental Wrestling, Memphis Wrestling and even men's and women's professional wrestling from Japan.   Through the series, Pedicino met his wife, Boni Blackstone, who won a contest to become the co-host of the package.  The tail end of the run saw future WCW announcer Scott Hudson do some of his earliest TV work in the business as well, working with Steven Prazak, who went on to work with ECW and the GWF.  At its height, the package was being seen in 90 markets in the United States.

Pedicino would work for World Championship Wrestling as an television and hotline personality in the late 80s and early 1990s, hosting Joe Pedicino Knows:

After departing World Championship Wrestling in the early 1990s, Pedicino helped found the Global Wrestling Federation in Dallas and was the face and lead announcer for the group, which ran out of the former Sportatorium, giving national attention to Sean Waltman (Lightning Kid at the time), Marcus Bagwell (working under a mask as The Handsome Stranger), The Patriot, Jerry Lynn, Scott Levy (at the time, Scotty the Body), Mick Foley and others via the series' afternoon time slot on ESPN.

Allegedly backed by a Nigerian businessman, the group was actually financed by Texas businessman Max Andrews and came out of the gate strong with lots of other well known names including Eddie Gilbert and Terry Gordy before becoming populated mainly by local Texas talents as budgets were cut  Pedicino would depart the project within a year as costs were cut across the board. 

On his Facebook Page, Del Wilkes aka The Patriot, wrote he was, "Shocked and saddened by this news.  Without Joe and Boni Blackstone, The Patriot as I knew it would have never existed.  Forever grateful!"

During his time in the business, Pedicino also put together a number of charity events to raise money for different entities and at one point, raised $10,000 doing a Wrestlethon event on local TV, assisting a fan who needed a liver transplant.

Pedicino had moved on from professional wrestling in the 1990s, beyond some online interactions with fans in the early days of the AOL and Prodigy online services.  He focused most of his attention on owning and operating several radio stations in the Georgia area through his company, Legacy Media South Atlanta.   He worked as General Sales Manager for WCNN in Atlanta and 92.5 The Bear in Fayetteville, GA, among other stations.  He had retired in 2018 from working full-time.

 his last pro wrestling-related appearace was at a NWA Legends Fanfest in Atlanta promoted by Greg Price back in 2011, where he worked as the host for the weekend as well as signed and took photos alongside Blackstone.

As noted, Pedicino suffered a stroke back in June 2019 and had been bed-ridden while undergoing physical therapy due to the loss of the use of his right leg and had to begin to learn to speak again.

Big Change With Capitol Wrestling

Capitol Wrestling announced it will be known as Catalyst Wrestling going forward. Below is the full announcement:

Following three years and over 150 episodes of first-run programming, April 20, 2020 marks the end of the Capitol Wrestling brand name for all live events and television programming.

Launched in March 2017, Capitol Wrestling grew from a small regional promotion to an internationally syndicated property airing on Fight Network's UK, US, and Canada platforms, as well as FITE and GaS Digital, and will today go forward as Catalyst Wrestling.

Beginning with the 160th episode of the New York-based organization's television show, Catalyst Wrestling will feature special episodes highlighting the characters, moments, and rivalries that have not only come before it, but will serve as the template for future programming.

Featuring talent such as Colby Corino, Homicide, KC Navarro, The REP, Ghost Shadow, and Carter Mason, among others, Catalyst Wrestling looks to bridge the gap between the innovative DIY identity of independent wrestling and modern storytelling, while curating a larger-than-life atmosphere for its fans both at home and at live events.

With an emphasis on first-rate talent both in the ring and on the microphone, as well as behind the scenes, the journey of Catalyst Wrestling will be told in a variety of ways beginning with a mini-documentary directed and edited by David Velesaca, focusing on current Catalyst Wrestling champion Colby Corino.

Other concepts coming to Catalyst Wrestling's weekly programming line up will include new segments featuring various members of the wrestling media breaking down Catalyst Wrestling's greatest matches, moments, and rivalries. Acting as initial hosts of the premiere segment will be Nick Hausman (Wrestling Inc.) and Andrew Zarian (Mat Men Podcast).
