Former WCW Star Says He Was Bullied In ECW Locker Room For Pursuing An Education (Yeah Ok)
He claims this but yet... Shane Douglas was well known for being a school teacher back then as well. So somehow "Crowbar" AKA Devon Storm (Chris Ford)'s claim doesn't seem to add up,
PLUS... I recall him when he was part of the WWF's Training Dojo, the dojo with Crowbar/Storm/ worked a weekend for WWA New England, an indy promotion I MYSELF was working for at the time behind the scenes (helping set up the ring, chairs, locally promoting their shows in New Hampshire, etc) and I had to go into the locker room many times during that weekend, passing messages to Matt Bloom(who started in New England as a graduate of Killer Kowalski's school and was in the process of getting his eventual WWF deal), Bruce Prichard, owners of WWA New England, among other things and i never once saw, Crowbar doing homework or studying. Just an observation based on the truth as i recall it from back then.
But hey, it's his story so let him fabricate it how he wants, right?

Just an observation based on the truth as i recall it from back then.
But hey, it's his story so let him fabricate it how he wants, right?
Veteran indie wrestler Crowbar was recently a guest on our WINCLY podcast. During his chat with Wrestling Inc. managing editor Nick Hausman, Crowbar explained the importance for independent wrestlers to have other sources of revenue.
A veteran of over 25 years, Crowbar is one of the few wrestlers to have wrestled matches in WWE, WCW, ECW, TNA and ROH. He also has a degree in physical therapy, so he is prepared for life after he steps out of the ring. He revealed that he was bullied in the locker room for pursuing his degree, but he is proud that it never deterred him from getting it.
"If you want me to be frank really, I'm at the point where I don't care anymore. Most of those guys s**t on me for studying in the back of the locker room. People talked s**t when I was in ECW because I would bring my books and I would study. I would go do indie shows and I would be doing homework, and they mocked me. I don't wish ill upon them, I wish success on everyone, but I knew the business was finite, that it ends someday," Crowbar said. "For me it's not over, but it's not my way of life, it's not my career, it's not how I make money right now. But I can say 80-90 percent of guys gave me s**t for it, and I hold my head up high and I think I'm better off than 95 percent of them. And I'm not saying that to be snarky, but I took a lot of s**t for years, everyone looked down upon me trying to do both, and I'm in a much better place for it right now."
Crowbar was also asked about some of the differences he sees between current wrestlers and superstars of the past. He said he's happy to see much less prescription drug abuse among wrestlers, and to see an increase in wrestlers pursuing side jobs and educations. He said the greatest advice he can offer to young wrestlers is to find a way to prepare themselves for life after wrestling.
"You really see a lot less prescription drug abuse, which is great. The newer generation seemed to have learned from the guys from the past and all their downfalls. You see a lot less drug use, guys go out and they tear it up a whole lot less because wherever you go there's a cellphone with a camera. Guys used to do some stupid stuff and there was no accountability, now wherever you go there's a cellphone and a camera waiting to record you doing something stupid. But you do hear of a lot more guys that are doing online classes or they have a side job, and you have to," he said. "They'll ask me in the locker room, and I'm going back 10 years, 'Do you have any advice?' And I always say, 'What else are you doing besides this? Because there's gonna come a day when this is gone. If you want to support yourself or if you want to support a family on an indie wrestler's salary, it's not gonna happen.' You'll meet all kinds of guys on the indies that claim they're killing it and making all kinds of money. If you find me that guy that says he's killing it on indie wrestling, that he's bringing in all kinds of money, I'll look him in the face and say, 'You're a liar, because you are, because it doesn't happen.' It's a passion project, it's something you do to work up to the next level. But if you talk to anybody that says they're killing it on the indie circuit, they're lying to you."
Crowbar and Rescue Mania just concluded their most recent set of tapings for their upcoming YouTube series.

News On Chris Jericho And Kenny Omega Almost Signing With Impact Wrestling
Chris Jericho and Kenny Omega almost ended up signing with Impact Wrestling, according to The Wrestling Observer Newsletter.
Impact Co-Executive Vice President Don Callis, who is good friends with Jericho, was reportedly very close to signing Jericho and Omega to contracts before All Elite Wrestling brought their offers to the table.
Jericho recently revealed that his AEW contract is the best deal of his pro wrestling career. Omega is expected to sign with AEW once his New Japan Pro Wrestling contract expires on January 31, however his signing has not been confirmed.
The Observer notes that before AEW was the plan, the idea was for Omega to keep working for NJPW and then do 30 dates per year for Impact. Jericho would have worked for Impact while working another year for NJPW since he would have had so much input on his creative plans. Jericho recently confirmed that he will continue to work with NJPW in the future.
As we previously reported, Jericho recently spoke about signing with AEW on his "Talk Is Jericho"podcast and discussed his talks with Impact. Jericho praised Callis and Scott D'Amore for what they've done with the company, adding that he really enjoys the product these days.
"I've gotta tell you guys, man, I've been really impressed with Impact over the last year," Jericho said. "I thought Don Callis and Scott D'Amore have really turned things around in that company, and I really, really enjoy it. And I thought long and hard about doing some shows there. I even had a meeting with Scott and Don in Toronto, and Ed Nordholm. The offer they made was a great offer. That's something that's funny when I hear all these companies are vying for the talent, for the free agents - WWE, AEW, Ring of Honor, New Japan, and someone mentioned MLW. Dude, what about Impact? They've got money. They were going to spend some money on Chris Jericho. We had some great matches planned. Jericho vs. Sami Callihan maybe, or with Johnny Impact, Brian Cage, Rich Swann. I'd love to work with Rich Swann. I did honestly talk to Impact and really, really thought about going there. And then Tony Khan came in with this offer, that's the biggest offer I've ever been offered in my career."
Dutt And Abyss Update With WWE.
Sonjay Dutt and Chris "Abyss" Parks are being hired by WWE in backstage roles, not as performers. What their roles will be has not been confirmed, but as Triple H said on yesterday's media call, WWE is in the process of hiring people to help fill out the UK Performance Center and obviously will be looking for additional roles within the NXT system. There's been a push of late to bring in some new Producers within WWE as well. Impact had to release each of them in order to take the positions and internally, the feeling was that there was no positive to forcing them to stay.
Since PWInsider Doesn't Want To Tell The Truth On WWE's "Hidden Gems"? I'll Do It For Them
It's
that time again I guess, to where PWInsider has to be fact checked
and shown they're buffoons thanks to me. They make it so easy and
actually, if Mike Jonson actually told the truth on this, I wouldn't
be making him and PWInsider look so foolish with ease, again.
Here's
a letter asking about how 'hidden' WWE'Ss Hidden Gems are? Someone
who sees this site had asked me about this and why the other well
known news sites are scared to expose this like I have, so I said
“Why don't you ask them, write PWInsider, Meltzer, etc and see what
they have to say about it”. So hence Johnson posting the following
you'll see rriigghht, here.
As
you see by Mike's answer, he sidesteps the fact that a lot of those,
ahem 'hidden gems' are and have been on YouTube for years (in some
cases). But here's what you can do, contact Mike Johnson at PWInsider
and steer him to this link right here.
https://billsbrandnewblog.blogspot.com/search?q=hidden+gems and he, like you, can see story after story after story on how a lot
of those gems are indeed, on YouTube.
The
least I can do if Johnson doesn't want to tell you all the truth, is
tell it for him. So by all means go ahead and tell him, I indeed did
that for him. At least with me you'll get the truth out of me and for
that? You're welcome.

Abyss and Sonjay Dutt have both exited Impact Wrestling
Impact Wrestling Hall of Famer Abyss and Sonjay Dutt have both exited Impact Wrestling,
The belief among multiple sources is that they are each WWE bound and will be working for WWE shortly. Impact Wrestling informed their roster of the departures in an email that wished each of them well.
The belief among multiple sources is that they are each WWE bound and will be working for WWE shortly. Impact Wrestling informed their roster of the departures in an email that wished each of them well.
Impact sources have described the departures amicable, categorizing the company as not wanting to hold back either of them from "great opportunities" that they were each offered.
Abyss had been working behind the scenes as a producer for the company. He was the longest tenured performer in company history, having started there in 2002. He had been with the promotion the entire time, with the exception of a short period where he exited as he was not under contract, before signing a new one and returning.
Dutt had been very involved in the creative side of impact, working with Don Callis, Scott D'Amore and Jimmy Jacobs. He worked for the company as a wrestler from 2003 through 2009, exiting and later returning during the time period where Jeff Jarrett came on board and brought his Global Force Wrestling braintrust with him. When Jarrett departed, Dutt remained and rose in power, eventually becoming one of the top writers and producers for the company.
It's been noted that Konnan and Tommy Dreamer have been added to the Impact creative team as a result of Dutt's departure.

Jake Roberts Responds To Wrestler's Claim That Roberts Scammed Him Out Of $10,000
Former wrestler Jerry Grey was a star across many promotions in the 1980s including Mid South Wrestling and Jim Crockett Promotions. Nicknamed the Golden Boy, Grey became a promoter after retiring from the ring, but was unfortunately diagnosed with cancer in 2018.
Recently, Grey posted on Facebook that Jake "The Snake" Roberts had scammed him out of $10,000 over the years which would come in handy as he's battling cancer. Roberts responded to those claims when he dropped by the Why It Ended podcast featuring Robert Strauss and Matt Koon.
"Jerry's [made] some mistakes you know, he's said some things that aren't true. He's trying to raise money to pay for his care," Roberts said. "I know he's having a tough time, but Jerry when you team up with Honky Tonk [Man]..."
"It seems like he's calling in debts from 25 years ago," Koon jumped in. "It doesn't seem really fair."
"It's a lie, it's a lie man," replied Roberts. "Jesus Christ, where in the hell is he gonna get 10,000 dollars? If he loaned me $10,000 wouldn't he have get it writing at least?
"Jesus it's the most ridiculous crap ever, and here's how you know... Honky Tonk's involved... You know, give me a break, Honky you loser, sit down and shut up."
Honky Tonk Man's level of involvement in this is a bit unclear, but Roberts seems to indicate that Gray used Honky Tonk Man to spread the allegations that Roberts scammed Grey.
"You know when you are down and out and you're dying of cancer, things aren't too damn good, I get it," said Roberts. "But don't attack your friends Jerry.
"Jesus it's just so sick it's sad, and just because Honky can sell 'hey man if you did it it would be a good way you can get a bunch of people up Jake's ass, and guess what? They will probably throw some money at you. You know what I mean man? Because no one knows who you are Jerry, and you can get some publicity on ya'.... Jesus Christ man... Welcome to Memphis Honky... Go home.
It seems to be a "he said, he said" situation and no one knows the truth except the individuals involved. But Jake Roberts did say that he hopes Grey is able to prevail in his battle with cancer.
"I hope he recovers, no one needs to die of cancer," stated Roberts. "Yeah I want him to get better, and I want him to admit the damn truth… Fans I do support him, I hope you do."
The Undertaker Poses With Impact Wrestling Stars At "SHOT Show" In Las Vegas Today
Former Impact Wrestling World Champion Eli Drake and reigning Knockouts Champion Taya Valkyrie are making appearances in Las Vegas today at the annual SHOT Show (Shooting, Hunting and Outdoor Trade Show). For the past 40 years and the 10th year in a row at the Sands Expo Center in Las Vegas, firearm industry professionals gather for SHOT Show, the largest trade show for target shooting, hunting, outdoor and law enforcement products.
The Undertaker was on hand for the show, and Drake posted the photo below with the phenom and Valkyrie. Drake noted that he casually mentioned Taker, who then appeared "out of nowhere not 10 seconds later."
The 41st SHOT Show ends this Friday. Drake and Valkyrie will be appearing at the show on Thursday as well.
SEVERAL FEMALE STARS ON THE INJURED LIST
SHINE Nova Champion Aja Perera landed in the hospital on Sunday in a near-deadly situation. She thought she had swollen lymph nodes. It turned out to be an abscess that could have killed her over the weekend. Despite the issue, she still wrestled in the Brii Combination Wrestling women’s tournament on Friday in Bronx, NY., and against Keira Hogan on Saturday afternoon at Shine 56 in Queens, NY.
Texas indie star Angel Blue has a neck injury that may require surgery. She is not taking bookings at the moment. She is one of the top heels in Texas and a near eleven year veteran.
Katey Harvey was injured on an Over The Top Wrestling show in Dublin, Ireland on 1/20/19. She landed badly on the floor and ended up breaking both of her elbows which required surgery. It was was supposed to have been a 6-man tag match with Harvey, Raven Creed and Amy Allonsy vs. Veda Scott, Debbie Keitel, and Valkyrie (Irish star not to be confused with Taya Valkyrie). Harvey had to be helped to the back unable to continue, and Allonsy no-showed, thus Creed was alone to take the fall.

MLW Notes
MLW announced they have signed Arizona-based talent Alex Hammerstone. He will be debuting in Philadelphia.
The promotion is teasing the return of a "mysterious" name from the past in Philly as well.
Teddy Hart is doing media in Philadelphia this week to promote the Superfight event.
As part of the GoDaddy.com sponsorship that was announced yesterday, their logo will appear in signage and on the ring mat at forthcoming MLW events.
Jimmy Yuta has been announced for the Philadelphia debut as well.
CHRIS SABIN INJURY UPDATE
Former Impact Wrestling Champion Chris Sabin confirmed expectations that he had suffered a torn ACL wrestling for Ring of Honor at their TV taping in Atlanta, GA several weeks ago.
Some people who were in attendance noted, "After taking a bump halfway through the match, Sabin rolled to the outside and grabbed at his knee. Trainers came over, and Sabin did not participate in the rest of the match. At the end of the match, Sabin was assisted out of the ringside area being taken out through a different exit than the other wrestlers."
On his Twitter account today, Sabin wrote:
Complete ACL tear. 8 - 12 months.— Constellation Chris Sabin (@SuperChrisSabin) January 23, 2019
This would be the third ACL tear of Sabin's career that required surgery to repair. Sabin suffered knee injuries in 2011 and 2012 while performing for Impact Wrestling.
Sabin's current ROH deal is coming up shortly. There is no word what this may mean for his long term future with the promotion.

Indy Company Not Happy With What I posted (shrugs)--- (Updated With New Reply)
Revolution
Pro Wrestling decided they were gonna express their dissatisfaction
of the fact I posted these two stories about their recent shows.
https://billsbrandnewblog.blogspot.com/2019/01/want-to-watch-revpro-new-years.html and
https://billsbrandnewblog.blogspot.com/2019/01/want-to-watch-revpro-live-at-copckpit.html … And someone representing them using their twitter accused me of
'stealing' their shows when all I did was post a link from a site
that has their shows and other companies shows posted there.
If
the show is posted on one of three (?) maybe more sites which is this one right here.
http://watchwrestling.in/sports/wwe-22/ I'm not stealing a thing. Hell here's a pic of the listing of shows
from that site, I just took the pic 90 seconds ago..
And OOHH LLOOKK!
There's RevPro's shows listed there among others. HHMMM. How does
that constitute ME, stealing anything? It doesn't so RevPro fucked up
with their lame accusation of me stealing their shows when links to
them are right there as I've shown.
As
I always say, proof is, a mother fucker and I'm always a mother
fucker who always has proof. :)
Here's
shots of how the convo between me and RevPro (and others who wanted
to jump in) played out.
Maybe instead of whining and crying at me, they should go to sites like I posted and crack down on THEIR shows being posted there, HHMMM. Guess that would make more sense but you know, some people obviously don't or can't think that far out of the box.
If I didn't post those links someone else would have as I've seen it happen dozens of times on FB. So trying to dictate to me ended in a failure, for them. :)
UPDATE!!! 12:20 PM.
Obviously RevPro saw this story AND, didn't like my last replies shown above to them, SO instead of apologizing for making a false accusation against me? THIS is how they back step after i pretty much, put them in their place.
Yep, they didn't like the fact they got checked on making a false accusation against me and had no balls to apologize for it, so they just did the obvious, block so that way they (or whomever is operating their twitter account) wouldn't have to grow a set and apologize for the fact they were wrong.

Here's Why The Screen Went Black During WWE RAW Main Event
"Malfunction'? Or, deliberate? HHMMM Makes you wonder.
This week's WWE RAW main event from the Chesapeake Energy Arena in Oklahoma City, OK saw Sasha Banks and Bayley defeat RAW Women's Champion Ronda Rousey and Natalya in tag team action.
This week's WWE RAW main event from the Chesapeake Energy Arena in Oklahoma City, OK saw Sasha Banks and Bayley defeat RAW Women's Champion Ronda Rousey and Natalya in tag team action.
Viewers on the USA Network saw the screen go black for about two seconds as Banks was going at it with Natalya at one point during the match. The screen went black because Banks suffered a wardrobe malfunction when her trunks came down, exposing her backside.
The malfunction was available to some satellite viewers. It was not seen on the USA Network.
Interesting that they blocked that one out, BUT.. This one, they never did. Jackie Gayda dropping her top. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KWyRbfFUYWs or this one as well. Jacqueline Moore's 'malfunction'. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qZtNdsoZIlU
Somethings says, this wasn't as 'accidental' as it may seem. and if the ratings go up this week then well? Makes you go, HHMMM.

Mat Memory- Chicago Blast from Past 17 (Matches From Windy City Wrestling 1992)
On this episode, we jump all the way back to 1992 and Windy City Pro Wrestling from the International Amphitheater in Chicago.
In the first match, we get to see The Zebra Kid take on the very popular Sonny Rogers.
The second match up includes "Mr. Electricity" Steve Regal take on Hawkeye Cody Hunter.
Windy City Pro Wrestling at the time was the only major Independent promotion in the Chicago area. Since then Windy City closed it doors in the late 2000's and was labeled as one of the longest running promotions.
Windy City has trained such talents as " The Fallen Angel" Christopher Daniels and others that have been very successful in running other Independent promotions in the Chicago area. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=V06Zuz5GkyQ&t=29s
Mat Memory- Chicago Blast from Past 15- Danny Daniels vs Ace Steel vs C.M. Punk
Nick H continues with wrestling from the Interstate 8 promotion from The Barn in Willowbrook on 9-3-04.
This 3-Way match is for the I-8 Heavyweight Championship.
We get to see Danny Daniels vs Ace Steel vs C.M. Punk (champ)
As stated before the I-8 promotion only ran a handful of shows.
Danny Daniels went on to be one of the original owners of Chicago's AAW promotion, which is still in operation today and is considered one of the top promotions in Illinois.
Ace Steel has also pretty much retired form the ring also.
C.M. Punk as everyone already knows has made a name for himself in WWE before calling it quits also.
