People Asked Me Questions, Here I Give Them Answers :)
These came from FB messenger, email and Twitter.
What was
your favorite federation growing up?
AWA and Bob Luce/Dick The Bruiser's WWA in Indiana.
Knowing your
disdain for Dave Scherer and Mike Johnson( PWInsider), Jason Powell
(ProWrestling.net) and WrestlingInc, Do you consider yourself
'better' than them when it comes to being a columnist? Also, with
their recent blocking of you because you fact checked them do you
think they believe you're not in their league?
I don't know about better but I just have a very different approach
compared to them, I always have. While they over saturate their sites
with what I consider senseless WWE stuff I know there's more to this
business than WWE they're neglecting for whatever reason. So what
they're neglecting, (emphasis on indy and UK stuff) that's left a gap
which I've more than been happy to fill. There's always something
'MORE” than just WWE to write about so if they don't want to cover
it, I will. That's how I've gotten my name back into it since I
returned to doing this acouple years ago. What they fail or neglect
or ignore I've taken up so that has helped me stand out from them. So
by all means please have them continue to do that because guys like
me will continue to have my name out there because of it. As for
their 'blocking' of me or anyone else that shows them something I
wrote about them? As I keep saying, truth hurts, especially when I
provide proof to back up that truth. Proof is a mother fucker and I
seem to be a mother fucker who has a knack for supplying proof.
What the problem it seems for them is, they're not used to someone
publicly putting them in their place. For the longest time they've
had this feeling that because they're hiding in their little bubble
of their own web page, 'controlling' people's replies and comments so
that way it makes it 'appear' that they have the last word on
someone. But get them out of their bubble that they hide behind, like
on FB or Twitter and go heads up on them, they're not used to that
and don't know how to react when someone puts them in check on that
kind of a platform. So blocking is the only thing they have because
they really have nothing else. They don't have the balls to admit
they got put in check so they'd rather hide behind a block like a
bitch instead. I've said it before and I'll say it again. People can
access or message me on FB, email, Twitter and they want to engage,
pack a lunch and prepare ahead of time because I'll engage back.
Maybe it's because someone like myself hasn't come along before and
fact checked certain things they've written and exposed it, that
they're not used to it. Whatever it is that's on them if they can
dish it out but are too much of a pussy to take it when someone gives
it right back tot hem. They want to act like bitches, treat em like
bitches then. And by all means go ahead and tell all of them I said
that. Expect to get blocked immediately after you do though because
that's all they're capable of doing.
I wanted to
tell you how much I enjoy your blog, you bring such a wide variety of
things that I don't see on other wrestling sites. The podcast recaps,
YouTube stuff and old matches make visiting your blog very enjoyable.
Thank you for not writing a recap of shows but showing them. My
question is, have you had any promotion angry at you because you've
posted their YouTube material?
Thank you and I hope you continue to enjoy what I post there. Not one
federation or promotion anywhere has asked me to stop posting their
Youtube material. When it comes to like the indy groups or companies
like Defiant, ICW, OTT, etc. They've actually liked (on my Twitter
announcement of what's been updated) the fact I've mentioned them in
some way. It's added exposure they're not getting elsewhere, that
they are getting on a regular basis by me. Plus since I'm a fan of
these indy promotions and the UK companies I enjoy watching and
getting my wrestling fix from them. So since they're satisfying what
the major companies here in the states can't or won't do for me? I'm
happy to try and plug it in some way for them. I have the platform of
this blog, and acouple places on FB to post stuff so why not give em
a plug and hopefully have others watch and enjoy their product like I
do.
What was the
worst wrestling show you've ever been to?
Without
a doubt it was Ringside Wrestling, in Hooksett, NH run by Jeff
Costas. I actually wrote about that, which you could find right here
at this link. http://prowrestlingtapes.angelfire.com/worstshow.html I went to that show while I was working for WWA New England and
Costas wasn't happy with me being there.. You can read all about that
at that link.
What legends
did you wish you always wish you could meet but weren't able to?
Dick The Bruiser and Da Crusher. Bruiser Brody as well. Growing up
watching them to this day are wonderful memories that thanks to
Youtube, I can go back and revisit anytime. I would love to pick the
brain of Greg Gagne as I've seen his shoot interview but there's some
questions, as a long fan growing up on the AWA I'd love to ask him.
Do you watch
WWE, Impact or ROH on a regular basis?
Nope. Every time I try to watch them, they remind me again why I
don't. Which is why I'm thankful for watching indy wrestling,
especially the ones I follow on a weekly basis, along with companies
like WWA out of Kentucky, and the UK federations like WOS, Defiant,
PROGRESS, NGW, ICW, OTT (as of late has caught my attention and is
keeping it :) ). The UK stuff has more wrestlers I can get into than
most of the ones here in America working for the said companies you
mentioned. Plus the storylines are simple, believable, and the UK
shows I watch have that old “ECW Vibe” to them that I've always
enjoyed. Simple straight ahead wrestling shows that doesn't insult my
fucking intelligence. Something that seems to be too much of a
challenge for the big three here in America to accomplish.

WWE Can't Keep A Storyline Straight If Their Life Depended On It (Especially On PPV)
They micromanage so much there but yet, can't micromanage how a main story line is supposed to go? (rolls eyes). Not only is this pretty fucking stupid, it's too obvious and them trying to ignore it makes them look even more stupid.
Last night at Survivor Series, Raw dominated SmackDown Live on the main card, with the red brand picking up all six wins. WWE kept telling the fans that RAW had won all the inter-promotional matches, which surprised quite a few people as WWE said SmackDown Live's victory on the pre-show did not count for the tally. This led to a few SmackDown Live Superstars such as Xavier Woods taking to Twitter to remind the officials that the blue brand had picked up a win, and to respect the tag team divisions on both brands.
The storyline called for Raw to have a clean sweep at Survivor Series. Something was lost in the communication process, which led to SmackDown Live accidentally getting booked to win the pre-show match. This led to the announcers ignoring the results of the pre-show, and focusing only on the matches on the main card.

FAN APPARENTLY INJURED IN ENZO FRACAS, VIDEO OF SECURITY MANHANDLING FORMER WWE STAR
Handing her a free t-shirt I doubt will cover their asses on this. :)
A stretcher has been brought to the ringside area for a female fan who has claimed she was hurt in the fracas when former WWE star Enzo Amore was ejected from the Staples Center by security after disrupting the show by jumping on his seat and bringing attention to himself during The Bar vs. AOP. We are told the fan is complaining of an arm injury.
https://www.facebook.com/MCWProWrestling/videos/1969296313162690/?t=0
The video does not clearly show where anyone may have been injured but security certainly physically yanked the former WWE star off his seat. However, another video from a different vantage point taken by a fan does clearly show Amore knocking someone down when security removes him.

Look At This Dumb Ass.... FORMER WWE STAR EJECTED FROM WWE SURVIVOR SERIES
Former WWE star Enzo Amore, who was released this past January, was sitting ringside at the WWE Survivor Series in disguise in the second row, across from the hard cameras. As the Bar vs. AOP started, Amore took off the outfit he was wearing and jumped on the chairs, doing his old WWE shtick and mannerisms. As soon as WWE realized he was there, Amore was pulled down by security and ejected from the building.

Has NJPW President Harold Meij Get His Ideas From Jim Herd's Time At WCW?
Most people know that Jim Hers was aregional president or manager of a pizza chain when he got the job of running WCW, which proved to be an absolute disaster and failure. SO.. Has NJPW done the same thing? Putting people who have no experience in Wrestling to help run.. A wrestling promotion? WWWEELLL Apparently....
Recently, there was a lot of tension between some members of the Being the Elite crew and the new office put in place by NJPW president Harold Meij, who put all of his own people in positions that didn’t have any previous experience in wrestling and their demeanor rubbed the Being the Elite crew the wrong way. Multiple sources tell PWTorch that there was hope the relationship between the Being the Elite crew and the NJPW office could be smoothed over in order to continue working together in the future. According to multiple PWTorch sources, it not seem at this time that any members of the Being the Elite crew outside of the ones under contract will be working with ROH in 2019
Frankie Kazarian and Christopher Daniels leaving Ring Of Honor?
It's been reported by various people that Frankie Kazarian and Christopher Daniels turned down new contract offers from ROH, which leaves the door open for S.C.U. to depart ROH with The Young Bucks and Cody should they choose to do so. The only cast members of “Being the Elite” under contract to ROH in 2019 are Flip Gordon, who has two years left on his deal and Marty Scurll. There has been confliciting information from various people about exactly when Scurll’s contract expires in 2019, but it is believed that Scurll will also join the group when his contract expires with ROH.
Get A Load Of This Dumb Ass- David Arquette Gets Bloodied Attempting To Shoot On Hardcore Wrestler Last Night (Video)
Last night, David Arquette took on well-seasoned hardcore wrestler and GCW World Champion, Nick Gage, at GCW presents Joey Janela's L.A. Confidential in Los Angeles, California.
The ending of the match got a bit awkward after Arquette took a light bulb shot to the neck, causing him to immediately hold the side of his neck. He got up, looked to say something to Gage, then Arquette tried to force two pins, and Gage kicked out of both. Arquete would leave the ring for a moment, almost looking to go to the backstage area to get the cut checked out.
He would venture back into the ring and drop down to the mat, looking for Gage to just pin him. Gage would instead kick him, grab another set of light tubes and swing, but Arquette got up and kind of blocked the attempt. Clearly frustrated, Arquette then grabbed a chair, swung hard at Gage, and looked to actually shoot on his opponent, but that ended with Gage judo throwing Arquette to the mat and pinning him. Still holding the side of his neck, Arquette immediately got up and headed to the back.
Below is video of what went down,

Yes, a "Demonic" Allie (rolls eyes) and notice how much the fans AREN'T getting into this at all, the lack of cheers and boos says it all about the Writing/Booking/Silliness of Don Callis.
After Su Yung destroys heather Monroe, Kiera Hogan hits the ring to confront her, but a changed Allie intervenes to shock the world! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=op5WCxfGrZA
Trust me when I tell you, when you see this, the 'world' wasn't shocked, if anything they were bored as fuck. Which again, raises the question i keep asking, that Don Callis keeps avoiding. How is it Callis that you claimed in several places you were going to get rid of the silliness that has plagued Impact Wrestling, when now YOU'RE the very one writing and booking the silliness? And why is it you keep avoiding the question every time i ask it? Oh I know why.. because someone called you at your very word and you, just can't keep your word. Got it, silliness is all you know and all that everyone in management of Impact seems to know as well.

Shane Strickland Leaving MLW?
Former MLW Champion Shane Strickland will be finishing up with Major League Wrestling next month at their Miami TV taping double shot on Thursday 12/13 and Friday 12/14.There have been rumblings for some time that WWE has been interested in Strickland (aka Killshot on Lucha Underground) and the belief among those we have spoken with is that Strickland will start this January in the WWE NXT system. WWE is slated to announce a new class of signings that month. MLW has been preparing for Strickland's departure for some time and at one point, he was going to be written out of storylines following the MLW Wargames event over the summer in Fort Lauderdale, Florida, which is why the company booked him to be destroyed and carried out without being able to complete the match. Instead, Strickland turned at the Chicago tapings last week, playing an angry role where he has come out against the product MLW is producing and the fans who are supporting it. That turn and Strickland's storylines will close out next month in Miami.
Strickland, also a former CZW Champion, has been a regular for WWE conduit EVOLVE Wrestling since this past August. He's been competing since 2009 and has been one of the most in demand independent wrestlers of the last several years.

Instead Of WrestlingInc Correcting Their Story, A Staff Member There Turns Into A Bitch (Updated)
Here's the two stories on WrestlingInc having the wrong information on a recent story they posted. The stories I wrote show proof that they were incorrect with their info and I supplied proof that they were wrong. https://billsbrandnewblog.blogspot.com/2018/11/i-get-to-put-someone-at-wrestlinginc-in.html and https://billsbrandnewblog.blogspot.com/2018/11/wrestlinginc-is-syill-too-lazy-to-fix.html
So insyead of simply admitting that they didn't do any research on the story, admit they were incorrect and actually FIX the story so it had the correct information, LOOK at what one staff member at WrestlingInc did when HE, was shown these stories I wrote on Twitter.
Apparently the people over at WrestlingInc don't like it when they get put in check on their own story by another wrestling writer who obviously has more knowledge than they do. Three different people showed this staff member and the main WrestlingInc Twitter Channel my stories and as you can see above.. They decided not to correct themselves, they decided to show what little bitches they are. They can't handle being corrected. It would've made more sense to just go and fix their story and admit they were wrong but instead, they punked out, bitched up and now show what pussies they really are by hiding behind a block because they got smacked with facts by yours truly.
I'm fining it more and more amusing on how these so called "more well known' wrestling writers like Dave Scherer, Mike Johnson (PWInsider) and this guy here at WrestlingInc show how much they're just little bitches when they get put in their place. It;s not my fault they put incorrect info on their story, it's not my fault I apparently know more than they do and it's not my fault they have such fragile egos that they can dish it out as long as they're in their own little bubble, of their own webpage where they can control replies. But when you get them away from their safe haven and on something more public like Twitter or FB, they go into bitch mode when you bitch slap them.
BUT.. This is your 'well known' writers for you, get punked by a guy who has more knowledge and you see how they bitch up. All that does is enhance me even more that a story I wrote that was true about them, make them react like little babies because they can't handle the fact I made them look bad with their own story. Sucks to be them and you can thank me now for showing, what little bitches guys like this really are.
He blocked another person who dared to show my story on WrestlingInc. My my how sensitive this assclown really is (laughs hysterically)

Mat Memory- Heroes Of World Class - The Story Of The Von Erich's & The Rise & Fall Of World Class (HD UNCUT)
Just like ECW, WCCW made wrestling history from a tiny building. The difference between the companies is that while ECW struggled to be number 3, at one time WCCW was the number 1 wrestling promotion based on TV ratings, attendance, and world tours. In Dallas, the Von Erich family was even more popular than the Dallas Cowboys. Due to their revolutionary telecasts, they forever changed the way that wrestling is presented on television.
This DVD spends a great time explaining...
what made WCCW so special, both inside the ring and outside of it. Unfortunately, the saga of WCCW is one of the saddest in wrestling history. The story of WCCW is directly tied to the story of the Von Erich family. At one time, David, Kevin, & Kerry Von Erich were the biggest stars in the business. The family encountered many tragedies that saw Kevin as the only remaining brother out of the six sons of Fritz Von Erich. The Von Erich's were not the only wrestlers to suffer untimely deaths. Three of the top stars in WCCW were murdered and none of their murderers ever spent a day in jail.The DVD ends with Kevin Von Erich touring the damaged Sportatorium in a scene that brings some closure to the sad ending of WCCW. While there is tremendous sadness in this story, it is also a celebration of a great time in wrestling history. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MFRGSgAyztY

Dale Pierce Remembered – Wrestling Manager Extraordinaire
If you've been part of the indy scene in Ohio, Arizona, California (in the late 80's/90's) or the Washington State Area( last few years) You probably have known or heard the name Dale Pierce. He was an important part of these areas for many years as a well known manger, teacher, mentor, etc for many up can coming wrestlers.
Last week Dale Pierce lost his fierce battle with Cancer and many people have stated their reactions to this. Besides being an author of almost two dozen different books he had a blog on the history of Arizona Wrestling, which you can see right here. http://azwreshistory.blogspot.com/2016/01/see-dale-pierce-collection-in-aberseen.html
I had the pleasure of knowing Dale for quite a few years, thru him writing for Evan Ginzburg's old Wrestling Then And Now Newsletter (where I eventually was able to contribute articles and have often had an aritcle in the same issue he had one). To where in a sad irony, he and I have articles in the current issue of Dann Lennards "Feed The Gorilla" fanzine based in Australia. Below you'll see the shots of both his, and my article in the fanzine.
WUW Wrestler Ron Von Hess did this tribute to Dale at the most recent WUW show. https://www.facebook.com/ronbuddahsutherland/videos/2226143924084296/?t=392
I myself did my own video tribute that was posted in the FB group I'm part of.. https://www.facebook.com/100014742766823/videos/515855848915836/?t=0 (If this link doesn't work reply here or message me on Twitter or FB and let me know and I'll upload the video to Youtube) and Evan Ginzburg wrote a tribute to Dale as well that you can see here at this link. https://prowrestlingstories.com/in-memoriam/dale-pierce-remembered/?fbclid=IwAR0pGADeTpkwYc2pPDCqFaMhuCXar_bxL-Gccvzi1KO1UrNb11L-pcIIH18
Dale was very knowledgeable, was a great help to many people including myself, he even encouraged my return to being a wrestling/dirtsheet writer. The wrestling world, more importantly, the indy scene in Az, Ohio and Washington State will forever feel the void of Dale no longer being around. He may have not been the most well known name in this business, but his name? Was well knmown by many in this business and in the end.. That's the kind of respect that's most important. He'll forever be missed by many.

Enzo Amore Kicked Off Plane In New York For Vaping
Former WWE star Enzo Amore was kicked off of a Delta airlines flight at JFK International Airport in New York today. A Reddit user first shared the video below of Enzo being kicked off a plane heading to Los Angeles. Enzo was kicked off of the plane before takeoff for vaping. Enzo reportedly ignored instructions to stop vaping, and the flight was turned around.
We had received a report earlier today that Enzo was in custody, however TMZ reports that while law enforcement was called to the aircraft, he was not arrested.
"A customer was removed from Delta flight 747 operating from New York to Los Angeles for not following crew instructions," a representative for Delta told TMZ. "The flight returned to the gate at John F. Kennedy International Airport where the customer deplaned without further incident." https://www.reddit.com/r/SquaredCircle/comments/9xf7td/enzo_amore_gets_booted_off_a_plane_and_is_asked/?utm_content=title&utm_medium=post_embed&utm_name=f54cb252dae24d53af61344f1db159d8&utm_source=embedly&utm_term=9xf7td
