In Memoriam - Valhalla wrestlingului

[Yokozuna]

[Edit Big Sexy]
Am redenumit tread-ul acesta pentru a vorbi despre luptatorii ce ne-au incantat de-a lungul timpului insa acum nu mai sunt printre noi!
Sunt in Valhalla wrestlingului

:( In data de 23 octombrie 2000 fostul camion al lumii in versiunea WWF a fost gasit mort in camera sa de hotel din orasul Liverpool, Anglia unde gigantul campion samoan se afla in turneu cu una din federatiile de lupte americane independente in care lupta de ceva vreme. In primele momente s-a crezut ca moartea lui a fost cauzata de un atac de cord dar in zilele urmatoare familia a declarat ca Rodney Anoia, acesta fiind numele lui adevarat, a decedat in somn din cauza unor cauze naturale.
Yokozuna a debutat in WWF la sfarsitul anului 1992 si la puntin timp deveni cel care a terminat invingator la Royal Rumble (1993) castigand sansa de al infrunta pe campionul lumii dein acea perioada Bret Hart la Wrestlemania IX. in acea editie de Wrestlemania tinuta la Caesar Palace din Las Vegas el a reusit sa il infranga pe Bret Hart dar a fost la randul sau invins cateva minute mai tarziu de catre Hulk Hogan. A fost cea mai scurta domnie de campion al lumii din istorie. El a reusit sa recucereasca centura de campion al lumii tot de la Hulk Hogan In prima editie a king Of The Ring in 1993. a pierdut centura de campion al lumii in fata lui Bret Hart la Wrestlemania X. El a fost si campion al lumii in echipa cu regretatul Owen Hart.
Alte comentarii facute de cei apropiati lui si cateva din numele celebre cu care a fost rival le gasiti la:
http://www.tuttowrestling.com/yokotribute.html
O sa ne lipseasca acest mare campion. Odihnestete in pace :(

[Triple H]

Si eu care aflu dupa 4 ani ca a murit Yokozuna, sad thing :(
A fost un wrestler bun pt categoria lui, celebrele lui lupte cu Undertaker au facut deliciul meu in WWF.

[Big Sexy]

Am mai scris si pe forum despre luptele lui Yokozuna. Abia acum am aflat si eu ca a murit. Cu adevarat un lucru trist. Mi-a adus multa bucurie in suflet si a fost si va ramane unul din wrestlerii mei favoriti.

[Heath Scumm]

RIP Yokozuna

[Mike1977]

Mda......comentarile sunt de prisos acum. Intradevar o pirdere mare pentru Wrestling si pentru noi fanii infocati ai lui. :( Pacat sa aflu dupa 4 ani acest lucru.

Dumnezeu sa-l odihneasca in pace.

[issue]

apropo stiati ca si Curt Henning a.k.a. Mr. Perfect a murit acum vreo doi ani? Alta mare pierdere a lumii Wrestlingului.Altii care a murit este unul dintre membrii Legion of Doom Hawk precum si varul lui Hardcore Holly, Crash Holly si British Bulldog.

[Yokozuna]

Cred ca ar trebui facuta o rubrica speciala pe acest forum numita IN MEMORIAM in care sa postam fiecare care stie despre cineva, fost mare luptator, ca a murit un mic CV si cateva cuvinte personale

[Big Sexy]

da tu un titlu si ii schimb eu numele tread-ului. E tread-ul tau pana la urma. Nu e nevoie sa face un nou tread pentur asta. Hmmm ... suna destul de insensibil nu? Nici macar un tread nu merita .... asta e!

[Yokozuna]

IN MEMORIAM asta cred ca ar fi cel mai potrivit

[Heath Scumm]

Exista pe www.prowrestling.com un soi de calendar cu toti marii luptatori care au murit............OBITUARY sau asha ceva!!!

[Yokozuna]

Tocmai am aflat ca a murit frumoasa Miss Elizabeth, cea care ii era sotie, impresar si il insotea in ring pe The Macho Man, Randy Savage. data decesului 01-05-2003. O sa ii duc dorul :(

[Big Sexy]

de miss Elizabeth stiam si noi. Ce nu stiam era ca a fost cu adevarat sotia lui lui Rady Savage.

Mi se pare mie sau devine cam deprimanta atmosfera pe aici?

[Tanasel]

il stie cineva pe Al Wilson? nu stiu daca era luptator sau barbatul vreunei luptatoare. si ala a murit

[Triple H]

Al Wilson era tasu lu Torrie WIlson, o bunaciune din WWE :evil:

[Big Sexy]

Deja i inceput sa miroasa a mortaciuni pe aici. Bai nu ne intereseaza ca au murit cat ne intereseaza ce au facut. Faptul ca sunt morti ne intristeaza mult insa nu destul incat sa uitam momentele de bucurie si impinire sufleteasca pe care ni le-au adus. Meciurile lui Yokozuna sau ale lui Owen Hart ne-au exaltat pe multi. Despre Curt Henning stim cu totii cat de important a fost pentru The Four Horseman

[Big Sexy]

Ray "Big Bossman" Traylor suddenly passed away Wednesday night at his home. He was 42.

Traylor had a very successful run as The Big Bossman in the WWF years ago, and another semi-successful stint with the WWF in the late 90s as a somewhat repackaged Bossman.

His cause of death is a mystery right now. He did not have any known health problems.

Stiu ca cei care aduc vesti proaste obisnuiau sa fie executati. Va rog sa aveti clementza!

Sa se odihneasca in pace, a fost un wrestler adevarat!
E destul de ciudat ca wrestlerii mor destul de tineri nu?

[Mike1977]

Hmmmmm, cand am deschis forumul '' In Memoriam" a venit o duhoare asa de lumanari si a umplut tot biroul de dimineata. Cred ca o sa iasa un thread al inmormantarilor si pe viitor al spiritismului ca o sa trezeasca astia din morti la cat vorbim de ei :mda:


Uaaaaaaaaaa..........sad thing :headbang:

[Big Sexy]

Aham . Asa este hmmmm. cred ca totusi o sa il inchid .... hmmmmm

De ce ai muriiiiiit Goguleeeee? :rosu:

:headbang: :headbang:

[Heath Scumm]

Cred ca thread-ul asta ar trebui sa aduca in prim plan realizarile luptatorilor ce au murit!

Ca de exemplu Road Warrior HAWK...un luptator cu o extraordinara carisma!!!Road Warriors erau echipa mea preferata in anii primordiali ai WCW pe TNT!!!

Cat despre CRASH HOLLY, pot spune ca pentru dimensiunile lui, in ECW facea lucruri incredibile!!!

[Big Sexy]

Poate ar trebui sa vedeti link-ul asta in care se vorbeste foarte frumos despre realizarile lui Big Boss Man

http://www.wwe.com/news/headlines/1277702

[Big Sexy]

Ce bine ca tread-ul asta era pe ultima pagina. Nu mai scria nimeni de morti. Oricum in perindarile mele pe internet am gasit un site cu toti luptatorii de wrestling care au murit si cauzele deceselor. Din pacate am pierdut link-ul :(
Acolo erau trecute cele mai mari realizari ale lor si cum si cat au influentat acest
sport.

[Heath Scumm]

De mentionat e faptul ca in ciuda faptului ca Stu Hart s-a stins din viata, federatia lui cu luptatori antrenati in Dungeon supravietuieste. Un luptator extrem de impresionant e JUGGERNAUT care e un adevarat monstru, ras in cap, cu ciocul negru/rosu care are ca manevra de final un soi de PowerMove numit THE K-DRILL.

Daca iti place Abyss, nu are cum sa nu iti placa JUGGERNAUT. Il recomand cu caldura :)

[Big Sexy]

Citisem de federatia lui dar nu stiam ca are asemenea luptatori. Awesome. O sa mai caut pe net informatii suplimentare.
http://www.juggernaut-wrestling.com

P.S. nu juggernaut a murit ;) ci stu hart

[Heath Scumm]

E incredibil. Stu Hart a lansat unul dintre cei mai buni luptatori extremi vazuti vreodata. De-abia acum i-am vazut site-ul pentru prima oara. Cert e ca acest luptator nu se prea aliniaza la normele dungeonului ilustrate atat de bine de Bret Hart, Owen sau Chris Benoit. Oricum are el ceva aparte(poate bata infasurata in sarma ghimpata pe care o tine in mana cand sta in fata lui LeatherFace care are ca arma preferata o drujba de taiat cherestea)

Dar, ca sa ma mentin in registrul threadului, RIP Stu Hart!

[Big Sexy]

Abia acum ii pot aprecia munca lui Stu Hart la adevarata valoare. Din pacate la vremea la care Bret Hart era dumnezeul tuturor fanilor si isteriza masele prin simpla aparitie, nu stiam ca el este produsul lui Stu Hart. Incontestabil, Bret Hart are un talent nativ pentru wrestling insa Stu a pus punctul pe i si i-a aratat ceea ce este el cu adevarat. Despre faptul ca l-a ajutat si pe Benoit nu stiam. Parca a mai castigat ceva prestigiu in fata mea Benoit pentru ca a fost in preajma lui Stu atata timp. Nu ma intelegeti gresit, Benoit este un luptator de temut insa nu merita o sansa la centura de heavyweight in wrestlingul profeisonist.

[Big Sexy]

O istorie impresionant in wrestling are The Grand Wizard, un manager care a redefinit ideea de heel. l-am descoperit intamplator cautand de zor pentru trivia lui King Lion. Partea ciudata este ca nu auzisem absolut nimic despre el desi este unul dintre oamenii care practiv au transformat wrestlingul intr-un show total. Feud-ul lui cu Bob Backlund a tinut ani de zile in care The Grand Wizard a dat clasa oricarui alt manager.
mai multe detalii despre viata extraordinara a acestui incredibil manager gasiti aici:
http://www.wrestlingmuseum.com/pages/bios/halloffame/wizbio.html

[Big Sexy]

Aaaa .. nu vreau sa par morbid insa ... Bob Backlund mai traieste ca nu am reusit sa gasesc pe net stiri despre el mai recente de 2002 si nu pot crede ca va sta departe de ring daca e in viata.

[Big Sexy]

Ma uitam acum cateva zile la niste meciuri de ale lui Kurt Henning a.k.a. Mister Perfect. Pur si simplu nu imi vine sa cred ca nu mai este. In WCW nu imi placea deloc de el insa am inteles abia acum ca era din cauza rolului pe care il interpreta si il interpreta asa de bine incat m-a pacalit sa vad actorul din el si nu omul din spatele lui Mister Perfect. Ideea ca par blond = heel a inceput de prin anii '60 cand Gorgeous George era atat de bun in a interpreta un rol total ingrat de raul railor incat imaginea lui a fost asociata cu ideea de heel. Si de aceea a si prins Kurt Hennig asa de bine. E nu era oficial heel (poate a fost, nu imi amintesc) insa era pe undeva pe la mijloc inclinand spre rau. In meciuri era in genul lui malenko (cu care a si fost in four horsemen) mereu atent, mereu gata sa faca un submission, mereu dornic de provocare. Abia acum am invatat sa ii pretuiesc arta :(

[Big Sexy]

October 6, 1999: Gorilla Monsoon dies of heart failure after a long battle with illness..

nu stiam prea multe despre acest clasic al wrestlignului ce a avut enorm de multe de spus in anii 80 cat a fost comentator. La fel de fructuasa a fost si cariera lui dinainte de a devenii comentator. MA vazut de curand un meci de box (relativ) intre el si andre the Giant. Cantareau aproximativ la fel insa Monsoon era cam cu 15 centimetrii mai mic. A fost uluitor. Imaginati-va doua valuri tsunami de cate treizeci de metrii izbindu-se unul fata de celalat si o sa obtineti o imagine vaga a ceea ce s-a intamplat in ring atunci!

[Reaper]

Si iata ca daca s-a vorbit despre Stu si Owen Hart, nimeni nu l-a amintit pe British BullDog (care a devenit ginerele lui Stu Hart dupa ce s-a casatorit cu fata acestuia Diana). David Smith avea doar 39 de ani in 2002 cand a murit.

[Big Sexy]

Ma crezi ca in momentul incare ai scris de el am lacrimat? La naiba, ce urasc chestia asta. Era printre favoritii mei mai ales de cand s-a implicat in lupta dintre IRS si tatanka. IRS in mod incredibil a disparut din istoria wrestlingului desi uneori l-am mai vazut ca lower midcarder (!) in WCW. Brittish Bulldog insa a ramas in istoria wrestlingului si era o legenda adevarata!

[cutuma]

Am vazut celebrul meci intre Owen Hart shi Stone Cold in care Austin shi-a rupt gatul intr-un Tombstone. Ce mi se pare mie penibil la acest meci e ca s-a respectat gimmick-ul shi The RattleSnack a castigat printr-un pin jenant in care abia putea sa-i ridice piciorul lui Owen daramite sa-l mentina la podea. Oricum, un meci superb pana la final, in care cel mai mic dintre fratii Hart shi-a aratat clasa. Mare, mare pacat ca a incetat din viata asha devreme.

[Heath Scumm]

@DECRET
Te-ai plans o data ca nu ti s-a raspuns la chestia cu PileDriver-ul lui Owen pe Stone Cold! Acum e momentul sa te bage si pe tine cineva in seama, mai ales ca intrebarea e pertinenta!

Ala nu trebuia sa fie un Tombstone ci un Piledriver normal ... Problema e ca cei 2 luptasera mult timp si transpirasera ... pielea lui StoneCold a alunecat pe pielea lui Owen si capul i s-a dus mai jos decat trebui ... Owen nu si-a dat seama de asta decat prea tarziu si ...POC! No more Neck! ...

Nu cred ca Owen Hart a facut acea manevra cu rea intentie ... cred ca mai degraba, a fost delasare! Oricum, Stone Cold a declarat ca nu-i poarta pica si ca intre el si Bret Hart va fi intotdeauna o prietenie de netagaduit!

[cutuma]

Da, asha este, a fost un Piledriver obisnuit care oricum, in opinia mea este mai greu de realizat decat un TombStone. Totushi, comentatorii tot o tineau pe-a lor cu Tombstone,tombstone!!! de parca asta ar fi trebuit sa se intample nu piledriverul ala. Ma rog, n-o fi rea intentie dar greseala e evidenta.

[Heath Scumm]

Comentatorii au spus ceva de genu ... "Tombstone ... same as the Undertaker!" ... cred ca au spus chestia asta involuntar ... de fapt Jim Ross a zis asta!

[Reaper]

Cu putin timp in urma s-a constatat decesul forumului de wrestling de pe onlinesport.ro. Unii afirma ca daca userii nu ar fi dat inapoi la prima dificultate sau poate daca, pe parcursul activitatii lor, nu s-ar fi retras intr-un mod tacut, atunci forumul inca ar mai fi in viata. In acest moment indurerat ne luam "la revedre" de la iubitul nostru forum. Singurul lucru care mai poate fi spus acum este: "beeep! Voi chiar beeep? Cum beeep sa moara forumul? Ce beeep v-a apucat beeep pe toti? Lasati beeep vaicareala si beeep incepeti din nou beeep sa postati! Dar asta este beeep opinia mea ... beeep!"

[Heath Scumm]

^ Lol

[Big Sexy]

sad moment .. a fost pacaleala de intai aprilie, uite ca s-a mai animat atmosfera deci back off!!! Sectiunea de wrestling is back from the deads!

[Heath Scumm]

Credeam/speram ca acest thread va fi inactiv pentru foarte mult timp de acum inainte insa se pare ca inca un deces tragic ne obliga sa il "redeschidem" ...

Saptamana trecuta ( Joi, ca sa fiu mai exact ) s-a stins din viata CHRIS CANDIDO, unul dintre cei mai mari luptatori din lume ... putini si-l amintesc pe CHRIS CANDIDO cand a facut parte din WWE insa acesta a facut parte din ANGLE-ul WWF vs Alianta ca parte a echipei WCW/ECW ...

Considerat unul dintre cei mai mari luptatori care au luptat in ECW si Japonia, CHRIS CANDIDO a revolutionat wrestlingul hardcore combinand agilitatea unui cruiserweight cu stilul pur de brawler a unui luptator Hardcore!

http://tnawrestling.com/images/head/hj/wk1/CANDIDO.jpg

[Profetu]

Atunci cand a murit YOKOZUNA am purtat doliu o zi!!!

La fel ca shi pentru OWEN HART!!!OWEN HART a fost pe departe cea mai dureroasa pierdere din wrestling pentru mine, un mare admirator al HART FOUNDATION!!!Am plans in seara in care am aflat ca a murit!Nu mi-e rusine sa recunosc!
De ce a murit Owen ?
Cand s-a intamplat asta ?
Dar British Bulldog ?

[Heath Scumm]

Owen Hart avea programata o interventie in care se prevedea ca el va cobora din tavanul arenei legat cu un cablu si va ajunge exact in mijlocul ringului unde il va ataca fara preaviz pe TRIPLE H. ... din pacate, cablul de sustinere s-a rupt si Owen a cazut de la o inaltime consideravila, s-a lovit in cadere cu capul de stalpul de metal ce sustinea ringul dupa care a ricosat in centrul ringului ... a murit instantaneu ... toata lumea credea ca toata aceasta sceneta era regizata deoarece WCW incercasera asa ceva cu putin timp inainte cu STING cand o marioneta a cazut de la mare inaltime trecand prin ring ... Din pacate, se pare ca n-a fost asa!

Acest incident s-a petrecut in 1999 daca nu ma insel!

British Bulldog a murit in urma unui infarct cauzat se pare de o supradoza ... in afara ringului, Davey Boy Smith avea probleme mari ... era devastat psihic, pierdut in dependente de tot felul,parasit de sotie si copii ... cand s-a stins era o epava ...

[Reaper]

WCW incercasera asa ceva cu putin timp inainte cu STING cand o marioneta a cazut de la mare inaltime trecand prin ring
Desi imi este teama sa te contrazic totusi asi incerca: in prima faza a cazut o marioneta in afara ringului chiar langa gard. Atunci Hogan zicea ceva: "this wasn't supose to happen!", apoi cei de la NWO au dus marioneta in ring si Hogan o lovea cu pumnii. In a doua faza Sting-ul adevarat a cazut de la o inalnime asemanatoare si a trecut direct prin ring. Atunci Hogan a zis "Bring that puppet to me!". Sting a inceput sa-i bata pe toti...istorie.

[Heath Scumm]

A doua oara a cazut tot o marioneta (din cate imi amintesc) ... care a trecut prin ring ... dupa aia, de sub ring a iesit Sting ... si i-a batut pe toti!

Cam asa imi amintesc eu evenimentul!

[Heath Scumm]

Pe 28 mai 2005 inca un luptator de wrestling a incetat din viata ...

Desi nu prea cunoscut, acest luptator era un incredibil high-flyer si o mare speranta a NWA-ului ... daca ar fi trait, ar fi ajuns in mod sigur in TNA

Moartea sa a survenit ca urmare a unor leziuni interne extrem de grave atunci cand acesta a ratat un banal moonsault pe ciment ce a cauzat o violenta hemoragie interna!

http://www.onlineworldofwrestling.com/pictures/s/spider/02.jpg

Mesajul e inca o data : "Don't try this at home" ... Daca un luptator profesionist a murit de la o asemenea manevra, amatorii sunt cu atat mai mult predispusi la moarte! Eu stiu ca nu voi mai incerca un moonsault de acum inainte!

[cutuma]

Am descoperit cu tristete ca si Rick Rude a murit.... Ceea ce apare obsedant in toate necrologurile astea este cuvantul "overdose". Spune multe....

[Heath Scumm]

Dupa One Night Stand as dori sa mai bag 2 RIP-uri la colectie pentru 2 luptatori pe care ii admiram enorm ...

1. Rocco Rock - membru al Public Enemy
2. Anthony Durante - The Pitbull, partener cu Gary Wolf

[Dragon-sin]

Am cautat prin tot thread-ul pt un nume,o legenda in ani '80,care din pacate a murit la 63.Nu stiu daca cineva stie despre el,pt ca nu este prea cunoscut mai ales in Romania,de fapt doar uni oameni stiu de el si in US,oameni ca Jim Ross,care oricat il criticati el stie foarte mult wrestling.

Este vorba de : Wahoo McDaniels R.I.P. :(

Wahoo McDaniels era 5-foot-11, 280 un wrestler care a intrat in NWA in ani '80,el era cea mai mare atractie pe vremea acea,si avea gimmick de un War Chief sa zic asa...indian....pt ca era indian...native american.El a fost cel care a inventat lovitura numita ''Chop'' sau ''Knife-Edge Chop'',si o folosea cu mult inainte ca Ric Flair sa o foloseasca.Wahoo era un om mare,si cand isi lovea adversarii cu un Chop,era ca si his finishing move,deci toata sala sarea de pe scaune cand il vedeau,era chiar o legenda. A fost un fost jucator de fotbal american,care din pacate sa imbolnavit in aceasi vreme cand wrestlingul devenea un fenomen national , nu era doar impartit pe teritori.Sa retras in 1989,el a fost si ultimu WCW National Champion.Multi nu stiu dar daca nu era pt Wahoo , Ric Flair nu ar fi avut succesul pe care il are,si daca ne gandim cate persoane a influentat Ric Flair,e chiar un pacat ca oameni sa nu isi aduca aminte de adevarata legenda.Chiar in cartea lui Ric ,To Be The Man auto-biografie lui,el zice clar ca Wahoo a fost idolul lui,si ca multe dintre miscarile lui,nu doar de wrestling dar si intrarile,au fost copiate de catre Ric.Am avut placuta surpriza cand am vazut DVD-ul lui Ric Flair,The Ultimate Collection,sa il chiar vad pe Wahoo,era un interview la extras cu el,era in vestiarul lui Ric,era exact inaintea meciului impotriva lui Harley Race la prima editie de Starrcade,si Ric spunea cum ca Wahoo a fost ca o inspiratie pentru el sa ajunga unde a ajuns,si Wahoo a zis despre Ric ca va castiga,si dupa un meci superb a si castigat Ric centura.Am mai auzit de Wahoo intr-un interview cu Jim Ross,dar mai mult nu prea am auzit de el la show-urile WWE.
El a murit in 2002,avea diabet,si in urma unor complicati a murit.

Acest om a facut foarte multe pentru wrestling,si trebuie amintit pt ca a fost o mare legenda a wrestlingului. Rest in Peace :(

[Big Sexy]

Ma bucur ca ai amintit de whahoo, l-am vazut in niste ppv-uri din colectia mea si era un tip fenomenal. Avand in vedere perioada in care a activat este si normal sa fie mai putin popular in romania. Prima oara am citit despre el in vremea in care hitscum facea trivia si ne punea sa cautam pe net de nebuni raspunsurile. In perioada aia am citit enorm de mult despre wrestling si am invatat o groaza de lucruri interesante despre acest fenomen numit sports entertrainment. In cautarile mele pe unul dintre cele mai importante site-uri de wrestling am gasit istoricul complet al lui Wahoo McDaniels. Cine este interesat il poate gasi pe www.obssesedwithwrestling.com.

[Heath Scumm]

Ma bucur ca ai amintit de Wahoo McDaniels desi face parte dintr-o era a wrestlingului pe care personal o urasc ... atunci totul se rezuma la 2 oameni masivi care se loveau fara scop cu pumnii, palmele si picioarele, se impingeau si se trageau de par definind acest lucru ca fiind spectacol ... cine nu ma crede sa se uite la WrestleMania 1 sau la alte meciuri din acea perioada cand se presupune ca wrestlingul deja evoluase la un alt nivel ...

Cu toate ca trebuie sa aratam respect fata de unii luptatori din anii 60, 70, 80 pentru ca se presupune ca ei sunt premergatorii wrestlingului profesionist, pot spune ca ace perioada nu imi spune absolut nimic ... din contra, doresc sa disociez acel tip de wrestling de ceea ce se intampla acum in federatiile independente pentru ca acestia din urma sunt cei ce revolutioneaza wrestlingul chiar si in anul 2005!!!

[Dragon-sin]

Mie personal imi place wrestlingul Old School,e foarte bun wrestling daca vrei sa il studiezi.Azi totul e spectacol,atunci wrestlingul era o adevarata arta.In zilele noastre un meci bun tine sa zicem 30 de minute,atunci wrestlingul era ceva imens.Promovarile pt un meci erau f mari.Atunci nu erau PPVs cu 4 feuds,un meci ,un meci si vindeau o intreaga arena.* eu vb exclusiv de National Wrestling Allience inainte sa fie cumparata de Ted Turner* .Ric Flair,Bob Orton,Ricky Steamboat, THE ROAD WARRIORS(care sunt si vor ramane cea mai buna tag team ever),Terry Funk,Buddy Rogers,Harley Race deci Harley Race era chiar un maestru al promo-urilor,cand cineva ii lua un interview era asa de concentrat si foarte bun la microfon,deci stia sa vanda un meci ,Rick Rude,The Russians,Rock N' Roll Express si multi alti,dar asta nu este la topicul potrivit,oricum mie imi place si poti sa inveti multe de la acesti wrestleri.

Cu intarziere, aduc in atentia voastra moartea unui luptator de top din CZW - in urma unui accident de motocicleta, Chris Cash a murit la varsta de 23 de ani ...

A ramas in istoria wrestlingului hardcore in special prin lupta exceptionala impotriva lui Ruckus si Sonjay Dutt si prin cel mai inovativ Cage Of death din istoria CZW care i-a pus fata in fata pe BlackOut si Team Cash ... Respect pentru Chris Cash ... inca sunt socat de moartea acestuia ...

De indata ce voi putea voi posta cateva lupte cu el in sectiunea de download pentru ca toti membrii activi ai acestui forum sa vada un adevarat atlet intr-un ring de wrestling!!!

[Laurian1903]

R.I.P:

The British Bulldog - Davey Boy Smith - atac de cord (2002)
Crash Holly (aka Sparky Plugg) - 2003
Bam Bam Bigelow - Terry Gordy - atac de cord (2001)

GONE BUT NEVER FORGOTTEN :-(

[Heath Scumm]

^^ Intr-adevar ...

Chiar ieri m-am uitat la Road Wild '99 si nu mi-a venit sa cred cat de profesionist a putut fi Bam Bam Bigelow in timpul luptelor si interventiilor lui ... cand a facut Big Splash-ul pe Benoit, manevra s-a vazut de impact insa cand am revazut miscarea mi-am dat seama ca Bam Bam nici nu l-a atins pe adversar!!!

[Laurian1903]

Yup, Bam Bam a fost incredibil de agil, de capabil in general pentru un om de gabaritul lui. La fel ca si Yokozuna. Multa lume nu realizeaza cat de mobil era, la cele 250 de kg ale lui. R.I.P. :-(

[Big Sexy]

habar nu aveam ca a murit, OMG, Bam Bam a fost o legenda si sper ca va ramane asa

[Heath Scumm]

Totusi, ultimul RIP este dedicat lui Chris Cash ... cred ca acum atentia trebuie acordata lui ...

Poate ca ar trebui sa downloadati meciurile dedicate lui din sectiunea multimedia pentru ca e pacat sa nu-l fi vazut macar o data in actiune ...

[Big Sexy]

Gasisem postat chiar la noi un site incredibil, numele si cateva crampeie din istoria tuturor wrestlerilor care au murit. Poate ca nu toti au avut ceva de spus in materie de wrestling, multi fifnd amaori insa am certitudinea ca multi dintre cei care s-au dus si dupa moarte au avut ceva de spus. un exemplu concret este memorialul Chris Candido. Gestul TNA mi se pare unul sincer si de apreciat.

[Ninja]

Doamne mi-as dori din tot sufletul ca acasta stire sa fie falsa ! Cu Totul ca scrie si pe WWE.Com

Minneapolis World Wrestling Entertainment wrestler Eddie Guerrero was found dead in his hotel room in Minneapolis, the organization said Sunday.

Guerrero, 38, was found at the Marriott City Center in downtown Minneapolis. He was in town for Sunday night's "WWE Supershow" TV taping at Target Center.

Police confirmed Guerrero's death, but are not yet releasing additional information. The Hennepin County Medical Examiner was at the hotel.

Guerrero was a featured star on the UPN series "WWE Smackdown!" and the subject of a full-length DVD titled "Cheating Death, Stealing Life."

Son of legendary Mexican wrestler Gory Guerrero, Eddie Guerrero has also wrestled with World Championship Wrestling and Extreme Championship Wrestling, among other federations. His nephew, Chavo Guerrero, Jr., also wrestles with WWE.

Stay with WCCO.COM for more information as it becomes available.
Cand am aflat aproape ca mi-a venit sa plang ....nici nu mai stiu ce sa spun ...:( R.I.P Eddie I'm With You :( http://i15.photobucket.com/albums/a391/GaidenNinja/eddie6mc.gif

Nu-mi vine sa cred. Sunt absolut socat. Dumnezeu sa-l odihneasca.

[Big Sexy]

Huh? Vad ca e si pe site-ul WWE! Inca nu cred, mai astept stiri.

[Dragon-sin]

CE? cum? pfoai chestia asa imi da lacrimi si nu imi e frica sa o spun,e cel mai mare soc posibil,nu pot sa cred.....nu pot.Tipul a fost o legenda in wrestling......nu imi vine sa cred

[Big Sexy]

de pe www.tnawrestling.com :

TNA JOINS THE WRESTLING WORLD IN MOURNING THE PASSING OF EDDIE GUERRERO

On Sunday morning, TNA joined the wrestling world in learning of the unfortunate and untimely passing of Eddie Guerrero.

The mood backstage in Orlando is solemn, as many TNA staff and stars were close with Eddie and worked with him throughout his career.

Everyone in TNA will keep Eddie and his family in our thoughts and prayers in the days and weeks to come as we say goodbye to a friend...

[Ninja]

Cica se spune ca ar fi murit de la lovitura la cap luata cu scaunul de la Mr. Kennedy ! In ultimul Show de Smackdown !! Ca nu ar fi pus mana in fata capului cum ar fi trebuit !!

[cutuma]

Ma indoiesc sincer ca asta a fost. Cel mai probabil OD sau heart-attack.

[Dragon-sin]

Eu sunt uimit/socat/trist deci e o pierdere enorma pt wrestling :( .Nush daca a fost lovitura de vina ,dar daca ar fi asa ar insemna proteste si revolte impotriva sportului ,si chiar interzicerea folosiri scaunului in WWE!,desigur o masura cam extrema.

[Big Sexy]

l-am separat si pentru o saptamana de azi va ramane asa. Dupa, il vom reuni cu tread-ul "valhalla ..."

[cutuma]

cate lovituri s-au dat cu scaunul ala in cap fara sa puna cineva mana..... mi-aduc aminte celebrul I Quit Match cu Rock si Mankind cand si-a luat Foley vreo 10 scaune in cap fara sa se apare aproape deloc. Sa fim serioshi ....

P.S. ii ziceam si lui Gabi pe YM, in interval de un an au murit Old Dirty Bastard si Eddie, doua legende, una pt hip hop si una pt wrestling.

[Big Sexy]

Despre lovitura cu scaunul sunt convins ca vorbim despre simple speculatii si la autopsie, daca va fi cazul, se va putea evidentia usor asa ceva, chiar si in cazul unui wrestler care are parte de contuzii dese. La autopsia la care am asistat mai demult in facultate chiar despre asa ceva era vorba numai ca nu era un sportiv ci un om fara casa ce se implicase intr-o bataie cu o luna inainte si primsie o sticla in cap, sticla care i-a provocat (nu am inteles nici pana acum cum) o pneumonie ce l-a ucis intr-un final. Aia a fost o lovitura cauzatoare de moarte.
Cazul unui od sau atac de cord este mult mai plauzibil. Antecedentele lui sunt cunoscute si drogul, dorinta de drog nu paraseste niciodata mintea dependentului. e de alta parte wrestlerii sunt extrem de expusi atacurilor de cord in principal datorita "suplimentelor alimentare". Extrem de multi atleti, wrestleri mor din cauza atacului de cord.

Eddie Guerrero was found this morning with his toothbrush in his mouth on the bathroom floor. He apparently died while brushing his teeth. The belief among those within WWE is that he had a heart failure. PWTorch.com reports that shortly after Guerrero's body was removed from the room, Chris Benoit, Rey Mysterio, Dean Malenko and Chavo Guerrero all visited the hotel room to say their final goodbyes. Many WWE staffers were visibly shaken by this as they left the hotel and headed for the arena.

Si inca ceva intr-un viitor era programat ca Eddie ca Castige WHC intr-un Triple Threat Match
Eddie Guerrero Tribute - http://www.users.on.net/~jpride/Videos/EddieMV-These_dreams.wmv probabil ve-ti plange !!

[cutuma]

1. Eddie n-a fost dependent de droguri ci de medicamente pt durere dupa un accident in 1997.

2. Citeam o biografie a lui Eddie si am remarcat ca la inceputurile carierei facea parte dintr-un stable heel numit Los Gringos Locos alaturi de alti 2 luptatori care au murit intre timp. Unul din acestia, Art Barr pe numele sau a murit tot in noiembrie, pe 23 chiar inainta ca el si Eddie sa intre in ECW. Eddie i-a preluat in semn de respect finisherul : The Frog Splash.

Il rog pe aceasta cale pe Hitscum sa-mi explice ce inseamna un Crucifix Powerbomb, acesta fiind finisherul lui Eddie inainte de moarte prietenului sau.

[BlackShad]

Pff...la draq :(( ,nuj ce sa mai zic...am plecat sukarit rau de tot din Bucuresti cand am auzit asta.

[Dragon-sin]

Un Crucifix Powerbomb e un Razor's Edge finisherul lui Scott Hall,sau chiar Mordecai avea acest finisher Crucifix Powerbomb,cand itzi tzi adversarul deasupra capului tzinandu-l de maini si il trimitzi catre podea. * inca nu pot sa cred ca a murit :(

[Th3 Gam3 HHH]

Am aflat acum cateva minute de pe site-ul de unde ma aprovizionam cu rezultate SD! si alltele ... cand am dat acolo unde de obicei se deschidea fereastra cu rezultate stupoare nu s-a deschis ... era scris Eddie Guerrero passed away ... pe moment nu am realizat ce inseamna , dar apoi a aparut si poza lui cu anul nasterii-anul mortii ... nu se poate , nu se poate , tre` sa fie o gluma proasta ,m-am gandit , dar sa fim seriosi , nimeni nu glumeste cand e vorba de moarte .... nu pot sa nu fiu trist , si ma simt chiar ciudat , de parca ar fi murit cineva la care tineam .... chiar ma incearca lacrimile .. nu stiu daca ma voi mai putea uita la niste meciuri cu el (...si planuiam sa va No Mercy 2005 ...) , o cruda zi , 13 , chiar ca nu se putea mai greu sa pice ......
Faptul ca a fost campion , si de mai curand conteaza mai mult ?! Nu cred ,oricare alt om din aceasta "afacere " ar fi fost la fel de "plans " daca putem spune asa ... Nu pot sa cred in continuare , poate si faptul ca sunt obosit , insa ma simt de parca m-ar fi lovit cineva cu o bata in cap .... si nu imi mai revin din soc ....
Te gandesti ca a murit , nu-ti vine sa crezi ca a murit , si e mai rau cand recitesti stirea cu caracterele ei dureroase .....


Si-ACUM , sa fim seriosi mai poti sa te mai uiti la wrestling vreme de cateva zile/saptamani ,(de fapt iti mai vine sa te mai uiti ?!) , daramite sa mai lupti , si aici ma gandesc la toti wrestlerii , indeosebi prietenii mai apropiati Benoit, Rey,Chavo ....................
Raw vs SD! , ar mai trebui sa aiba loc >!? Sa nu-mi spuneti cu cruzime ca mai stiu eu cine , "jocul tre` sa continue "....

Bottom line is :
EDDIE GURRERO Rest in peace

[Heath Scumm]

Imi pare foarte rau ... o pierdere masiva pentru lumea wrestlingului!

Imi pare nespus de rau, pana si eu un fan de ocazie al wrestlingului am auzit de el si l-am vazut de mai multe ori.

RIP

[THE HUN JR]

Very sad he died. Drugs took an effect on him now.

[Reaper]

I don't think it was drugs that killed him. He had a problem in the past with alchool, but he got over that. I don't know what to say. Maybe we should wait for an official announcement on the cause of death (if there will ever be one and if it will tell the truth).

Nu cred ca a murit din cauza drogurilor. A avut o problema in trecut cu alcoolul, dar a trecut peste asta. Nu stiu ce sa spun. Poate ar trebui sa asteptam un anunt oficial despre cauza mortii (daca va exista unul si daca se va spune adevarul in el).

[Heath Scumm]

Lots of foreigners coming 2 this forum ... most of them don't post anything but yet there are exceptions ...

Anyway ... yesterday was supposed 2 be the authopsy day so the fans will get the official statement in the days 2 come!

Vickie Guerrero speaks on Eddie's autopsy report
Nov. 15, 2005

After the untimely passing of Eddie Guerrero, WWE and the entire sports-entertainment community is still reeling from the devastating loss of a champion. The initial autopsy reports on Guerrero have come in. WWE.com spoke with Eddie’s widow, Vickie Guerrero, earlier today.

“It was heart failure. It was from his past – the drinking and the drug abuse. They found signs of heart disease. She (the examiner) said that the blood vessels were very worn and narrow, and that just showed all the abuse from the scheduling of work and his past. And Eddie just worked out like crazy all the time. It made his heart grow bigger and work harder and the vessels were getting smaller, and that’s what caused the heart failure. He went into a deep sleep.

As soon as they saw his heart, they saw the lining of his heart already had the heart disease. There was no trauma, and Eddie hadn’t hurt himself in any way. It answered a lot of questions. I knew Eddie wasn’t feeling very good for the last week. He was home and kept saying he wasn’t feeling good and we thought it was just “road tired.” So we thought he just had to rest. It answered a lot of my questions, too, because he was just so exhausted. She said it was normal because the heart was working so hard.

When he didn’t call me last night and the night before I knew it was for real, because he would call me every night. I miss his phone calls. I cried through the whole thing (last night).

I loved his laugh. His laugh was the best.

We just celebrated his four-year sobriety last Thursday. We just thought we had life by the handful. We thought we had it all figured out. He worked so hard to make a better life for us.

I’m just overwhelmed by how people are coming out. It’s touched my heart a lot.

Everybody was just in awe last night in how beautifully everything was put together.

All my life was wrestling. All he did was take care of them and live for that. And I don’t know what to do now.”

Drugs took an effect on him late in his carrer. I wonder if we can see this happening to Batista.

[Heath Scumm]

Batista is pumping up steroids ... and he's not taking that many pain killers ... so the only thing Batista will probably get is impotence ... death from steroids is pretty unlikely! ... unless I'm mistakin'

Pentru cine nu citeste forumul OWMF m-am gandit sa postez aici un mesaj al lui Test (pentru cine-l mai tine minte) legat de moartea lui Eddie Guerrero

Andrew "Test" Martin posted the following message on his official website AndrewTestMartin.com.

Nov 14

I've been up all night and haven't realy slept as everyone knows by know Eddie Guerrero has passed away. Everybody knows Eddie had his demons but he had been clean for a long time, it was way to soon for him to go and he leaves behind to beautifull young daughters and a wonderfull life my heart goes out to them. Eddie was a huge help to me he helped me progress in the ring and we even wrestles ar wrestlemania in houston in 2001 for the european championship. Eddie i pray you are in a better place and THANKYOU for everything you taught me. Now instead of usually talking about what I'm up to I'm going to break down the reality of this business we call wrestling. When I say "who's next" I'm not coining Goldbergs line I'm actually wondering who's next? who's next to die? I can think of at least 15 to 20 people who have died from various things mostly prescription pain killers. For all you wanna be wrestlers who wanna get in this business..escpecially now when wwe doesn't pay you anymore than you would make at a 9 to 5 job let me break some things down for you. When I started wrestling I had never seen or heard of vicodin or percocet or soma. How come so many wrestlers die from these medications and football players and hockey players don't? The answer is simple..wrestlers especially wwe wrestlers work 5 days a week all year long taking bump after bump in the ring, a doctor explained it to me like this..everytime you take a fall in the ring it's like gettin rear ended by a car going 20mph so how many bumps in the ring a night do you take? multiply that by how many times a week you work all year long..that's a hell of a lot of whiplash and pain. I can remember hearing a conversation from some unamed wwe head guys talking about how this certain person needs to go to rehab but they couldnt send him because he was to important to the show..that's the reality people thta is how we are treated...look at me I break my neck in the ring had to have 2 discs taken out of my neck and a steel plate put in and was told at the time by Johny Ace in his exact words were when I asked if my job would be in jeopardy he said "we don't fire people with injuries like that" Hmm that's funny cause 2 months after surgery I got fired because I wasn't working my 7 years of busting my ass for them and putting over the bosses son while my foot was broken in a cast was all forgotten about. I remember when I was bein trained by Bret and I met Bad News Allen he said this to me and I'll never forget it "all wrestlers are to Vince are puppets and when he is done playing with you he throws you away but sometimes he'll dust you off bring you back and play with you some more" That is the truth people...when Johny Ace called me and told me they were releasing me which of course he put all the heat on Vince...I said to him what kind of message are you sending the boys that if they get hurt they are going to get fired? So all the guys who don't want to lose their jobs what do they do...popp a couple of percocet or vicodin and mask the pain cause god forbid they say they are hurt and lose their job...I'm not going to name any names but I know at least a dozen or so wrestlers who are addicted to these things for that very reason...get hurt lose your job...I just turned 30 my back aches everyday, I have a metal plate in my neck and yes I got in the business at the right time and have a lot of nice things but is it all worth it? you guys don't see the ugly side of this business..yes wrestling is entertainment but the bumps and bruises are real and sometimes they don't go away...so think long and hard before you get in this business cause I can tell you first hand that if your not working or making them money they don't give a sh*t about you....and the sad part is Eddie was clean and I guarantee he won't be the last one to die in the next 12 months..so that's why i say who's next? Don't take your life for granted it's a gift..don't go to bed mad and tell the people you care about you love them because you never know....take care

[Heath Scumm]

^ Thank you Test!

*HitScum face o plecaciune!

Test e atat de distrus incat nici macar TNA nu-l mai doresc (oricum, ei il au pe Lance Hoyt care e Test upgradat ;))

Anyway ... problema drogurilor si a pastilelor impotriva durerii e o problema care a aparut in wrestling in ultima jumatate a anilor '90 ... am vazut la inceputul anului un documentar in care Roddy Piper punea aceeasi problema cu lacrimi in ochi in conditiile in care vede foarte multi prieteni care se sting incetul cu incetul datorita acestui stil de viata ...

E tragic ce se intampla ... but hey! ... si eu fac mari eforturi sa downloadez show-urile care ma intereseaza (FOR FREE) si sa vad oameni schilodindu-se in ring!

Si de ce nu se pune aceeasi problema si comparativ cu alte sporturi de contact unde loviturile (chiar daca nu au aceeasi intensitate ca in Pro-Wrestling) sunt cat se poate de reale?

Wrestlerii stiu la ce se supun atunci cand intra intr-un ring ... poate nu in totalitate ... dar stiu!

[the_rock]

Salut ma Numecs Christi sunt din Iasi . :::am observat ca voua va pare rau de moartea sa::(voi care sunteti admiratori ai wrestling-ului in generat...dar eu ...eu am in camera postere...la calculator imaginea de pe desktop este cu el ...era Omul meu Preferat A MURIT va dati seama ce inseamna asta pentru mine:headbang: yo am plans jumame de ora cand am auzit dar degeaba scrie pe www.wwe.com eu vreau o dovada clara ...vreau poze de la inmormintarea sa :((:(( nu imi vine sa cred

[Big Sexy]

Am in format digital video declaratiile de la conferinta de presa, emisiunea de pe NBC si raw-ul memorial, acum o sa urmeze si smackdown-ul memorial. E pe bune, nu e un angle, pur si simplu nu ar face asa ceva.

[Heath Scumm]

Care este din ceea ce ati vazut cea mai buna lupta a lui Eddie Guerrero?

In opinia mea, Eddy Guerrero vs Rey Mysterio Jr. - Title vs Mask Match de la WCW Halloween Havoc e cea mai buna lupta a carierei lui!

[Th3 Gam3 HHH]

Am vazut mult prea putine meciuri cu el ca sa-mi pot da cu parerea , dar sigur din WCW au fost cele mai bune (poate vs Benoit ).
A aparut oficial cauza mortii lui Eddie , iar aceasta "da peste nas " celor care o sustineau cu medicamentele si altele ...

"Wrestling star Eddie Guerrero died of natural causes related to heart disease, said the Hennepin County Medical Examiner Thursday.

The medical examiner's office said Guerrero, who was found dead in his hotel room on November 13, died of "natural causes related to arteriosclerotic heart disease." That term is synonymous with coronary heart disease, a narrowing of the blood vessels that supply blood and oxygen to the heart.

The coroner's did not address what led to the heart trouble, although the wrestler's wife, Vickie Guerrero, said last month on WWE.com's website that his past substance abuse and aggressive workout regimen caused the heart disease. "

[thunder_liger]

cu stima si respect fata de toti membrii,cred ca meciurile cele mai bine ale lui eddie guerrero sunt cele din japonia cand lupta supt numele de black tiger.

just check the list below and see how many times u find the words "suicide" and "heart"
http://www.100megsfree4.com/wiawrestling/pages/other/obituary.htm

[thunder_liger]

deoarece nu m-am prins cum sa editez un mesaj mai vechi si nimeni nu a scris dupe mine...
crec cea mai controversata moarte din wrestling (pe langa cea a lui owen) este cea a lui bruiser brody care a fost injunghiat in vestiar,fiind la un meci in puerto rico.ucigasul era un coleg wrestler si promoter care a fost judecat dar a iesit basma curata deoarece sigurul martor (tony atlas daca nu ma insel) a refuzat sa depuna marturie din cauza amenintarilor.dupa acest incident,in semn de protest si nu numai,wrestlerii americani nu am mai luptat in puerto rico.google for more
brody era un star al timpurilor sale si feud-ul lui cu abby a atras destul de multi spectatori.se spune de abby ca are cicatrice pe frunte asa de adanci incat poti sa introduci monede in el.brody nu era mai departe...luptatorul din k1 (provenit din wrestling) care-si zice predator imi aduce aminte de departe de brody

[Heath Scumm]

^ la ce luptator de K1 te referi? ... e vorba cumva de Don "Predator" Frye din UFC? Cel cu mustata?

OFF-Topic
Poti sa-ti editezi un post timp de o ora dupa ce l-ai postat ... dupa asta, doar moderatorii mai pot face modificari in postul tau ...

[thunder_liger]

tu crec glumesti,nu? nu e nici o asemanare intre brody si frye.nici macar de departe:) don frye a fost in vizita la k1 si si-a luat somn de la jerome.
ma refeream la sylvester terkay.are meci in k1 dynamite in viitorul apropiat.

[Heath Scumm]

Nu stiu! Nu urmaresc K1 sau UFC ... am doar cateva cunostinte generale care evident, nu sunt suficiente :) ...

Shinya Hashimoto,o legenda a wrestling-ului japonez a incetat din viata pe data de 11 iulie 2005.
cauza mortii a fost anevrism cerebral.a cazut pur si simplu din picioare si cand au ajuns la spital cu ambulanta era deja mort.RIP

[Heath Scumm]

Nu-l stiu ... nu l-am vazut in nici un meci ... ai vreun meci cu el pe care sa-l postezi in Multimedia?

[thunder_liger]

din pacate n-am nici un meci cu el..:(
omu era bun..da nu m-a fascinat.

Samoa Joe on Hashimoto :

Arigato Hakaio.
..
Yet another.
I won't mince words and say that in my recent days that I have been fan of things that have occurred when the name Shinya Hasimoto is mentioned, but I always have respected the man.

When the news of Hashimoto's passing reached me through several phonecalls through out the night, I found myself moved far more than even I would have expected. As of right now I am typing this entry from a hotel lobby in rural Weatherford Oklahoma broken down during a cross country drive taking myself and helping move my significant other back to California.

I sat in the parking lot last night and for the 1st time in a long time I thought back to my days with ZERO ONE and all of my experiences with Hashimoto. When I took the time to really recall these moments I realized what a dramatic impact he had made in my life and my career.

When I 1st started in Japan my knowledge of Hashimoto was limited albeit somewhat educated. It was only when I began to wrestle across the ring from the man that I truly realized what it meant to be a star. Hashimotos ambiance did not lie in a flashy gimmickry, trend setting re-invention or the intangible coolness, of his musketeer brethren. Hashimoto had foregone the pomp and circumstance of wrestling and simply sought to be the embodiment of an ideal. The ideal that was the founding principle of the dojo that produced him which was derived from the centuries old warrior customs of his culture. Hashimoto embodied Toukon, The Fighting Spirit.

Once at a preliminary training session, Hashimoto had quizzed a group of relatively clueless gaijin about the most important aspect of Professional Wrestling. Answers sprung forth pleading a case for "Technique" and "Psychology", but Hashimoto simply pointed at his eyes and said "The Fire". The fire, the burning spirit, the unyielding will, even in the face of insurmountable challenges. With a simple gesture and the most intense stare I had ever seen I understood all these things that I have just listed and nodded in compliance.

Hashimoto's popularity was no accident as he represented the very essence of the much vaunted Samurais of old. He was a single ideal, by any means necessary, no questions asked, decisiveness personified. Enter the ring and destroy the opposition that is in front of you. Hakaio.

In his simplicity you could find his brilliance and the basis for his astounding charisma.

Outside of the ring Hashimoto was the polar opposite. Kind, gentle, and always ready to crack a joke or hear one, he enjoyed life and was always easy to smile. If you had never seen him in the ring you would guess him to be a late night variety talk show host complete with staged breakfalls and wacky accenting sound effects to enhance his often jovial demeanor. In my time spent in Japan with Hashimoto he was also generous. I remember one night I was sulking around the ZERO ONE offices harrassing boss Nakamura to hurry up and finish working so we could go out drinking and watching Samurai TV. Hashimoto came in to do some late night work in his office and he was astounded to find me sitting in the office bullpen pitching in and counting out tickets just to pass the time. He tried to express his gratitude as best he could in his limited english but I assured him that it was ok and I was more than happy to oblige.

The next week Hashimoto had caught wind that I was going out on a date. Remembering my very mild efforts the week before, he assigned his car and driver to me and paid for my evening in full. It was a gesture often unheard of in most workplaces but it is a gesture that will always be endeared to me. Also his words before I started my night
"Joe-san, tonight no fire in eyes, Tonight eyes clear. I teach you too much".
I nodded in agreement and made my way to the door. As I approached the office bullpen packed to the brim with busy employees his voice stopped me again
"Joe-SAN!"
Hai Hashimoto-san!" I replied
"If tonight you feel fire in your pants, please go to hospital!"
The office erupted in delayed laughter as the english speaking employees quickly explained to the others in between gasping chuckles. I turned around and faced the red visaged hysterical Hashimoto and bowed deeply

HAI HASHIMOTO-SAMA! Mochiron!

God bless you Hashi, Find happiness.

S. Joe

si inca una pt cei rabdatori

As you all know by now, Shinya Hashimoto was pronounced dead at approximately 10:36 AM JST this morning from a brain hemorrhage at Yokohama University Hospital but he had already died in the ambulance en route to the hospital. Hashimoto’s funeral will take place on 7/15 in Kuboyama and there would be a memorial service in Yokohama on 7/16. Hashimoto’s sister Masanari said that Hashimoto was complaining last week about chest pains and that he thought his heart was beating too fast but he wouldn’t go see the doctors.

Hashimoto had a heart problem last year and was put on medicine but had to come off when he had his shoulder surgery. Hashimoto’s doctor said today that high blood pressure was the most likely cause for his brain hemorrhage and that other stress over the years has caused these problems which for someone his age shouldn’t be happening.

Antonio Inoki stated today that a death so sudden as Hashimoto’s is the most shocking kind of death and leaves you wondering how and when your life will end. Inoki said that he is at a loss for words but that Hashimoto’s family is in his prayers.

Atsushi Onita stated today that he is very depressed over hearing the news of Hashimoto’s death and said that pro wrestling in Japan won’t be the same without him.

Dick Togo stated in his blog that he was very shocked at hearing of the death of Hashimoto and was anticipating his comeback this year regretting that it will now never happen and sent his prayers to the family.

Ebetaro said that he heard of Hashimoto’s death via the telephone and still couldn’t believe it even seeing it announced on television. Ebetaro sent his prayers to the family and hoped that he would be forever be remembered as one of the toughest men to compete in the business.

Hayabusa expressed his shock over Hashimoto’s death in his blog today and basically had no words for now but just wished the best for his family & friends.

Hiromitsu Kanehara also expressed his disbelief over the death of Hashimoto in his blog today saying that he can’t believe a person as young as Hashimoto could die the way he did and sent his prayers to the family.

Kazuyuki Fujita expressed his shock over the news of Hashimoto’s death saying that how could a man die so young and that Hashimoto was someone he always looked up to because he always handled himself professionally. Fujita said that Hashimoto looked after him when he was a young lion and that he was a tremendous teacher, which makes the news of his death even harder to take.

Keiji Muto was told of Hashimoto’s death at a public appearance in Tokyo and had to leave due to his shock over the news with no comment given to the press.

Kensuke Sasaki posted his complete shock and lack of words in his blog today and wished it was all a lie but knows it isn’t and sent his prayers to the family.

Masahiro Chono expressed his deep sympathy over the death of Hashimoto who was one of his best friends and that he went to Yokohama University Hospital to confirm the news he heard of his death and was sent to the funeral home where he met with the family. Chono said that Hashimoto was what pro wrestling was all about and had all the qualities that he wished he had saying that he was always happy and enjoyed life to the fullest. Chono said that the 3 Muskateers were going to reunite this year and were going to blow up the current pro wrestling scene in Japan but sadly that won’t happen. Chono said that he last saw Hashimoto in April and he was in good spirits but was ready to return to the ring but had to wait until his shoulder was completely healed before his return. Chono then said that he would dedicate the rest of his career to his fallen friend. There were rumors going around that Hashimoto was going to appear at All-Japan’s show on 7/26 at Yoyogi National Gym #2 for a 3 Muskateers reunion with Chono & Keiji Muto.

MIKAMI recounted in his blog about the first time he met Hashimoto and how he was in awe of his size & presence and how he was a big fan of him as a kid. MIKAMI said that the business will miss a person like Hashimoto and sent his prayers to the family.

Naoya Ogawa spoke about the death of Shinya Hashimoto today saying that he was one of the best friends he has ever had in his life and was just in total shock over the way he died. Ogawa said that he couldn’t believe that he died when he got the call on his cell phone and was going to go to Hashimoto’s house himself but he decided to return back to Tokyo although he said that he won’t fully believed he died till until he sees the body himself. Ogawa said that he last met with Hashimoto in Sapporo in May and said that Hashimoto was in good spirits as he was waiting to make his comeback in the very near future. Ogawa had said that he was trying to get in touch with him about coming to the HUSTLE shows last week but he never got a chance to talk to him directly and left messages on his answering machine. Ogawa said that without Hashimoto, he would be nothing in the wrestling business as his feud with him made him the star he has become and that he enjoyed his partnership with him more than anything else in his professional career. Ogawa said that there is a void in his life right now that will probably never be filled and that he would dedicate the rest of his career to the memory of his friend.

New Japan President Simon Kelly Inoki said that words were tough to come to his mind when hearing of Hashimoto’s death but he had a visual in his head of Hashimoto’s smiling face after his big matches and sent his prayers to the family.

PRIDE President Nobuyuki Sakakibara also expressed his shock over the loss of Hashimoto as he along with Hashimoto & Ogawa came up with the popular HUSTLE concept. Sakakibara was hoping that Hashimoto would return to HUSTLE once his shoulder fully recovered and admitted that HUSTLE hasn’t been the same since Hashimoto left but now that he is gone, the concept would have to live on dedicated to his memory. Sakakibara said that Hashimoto would want us to go on and that they would do so in his honor.

Ricky Fuji expressed his sorrows over the death of Hashimoto in his blog today recollecting the time he spent working with Hashimoto in the New Japan Dojo during the late 80’s and time spent in Calgary in 1989 and sent his condolences to Hashimoto’s family.

Seiji Sakaguchi just couldn’t believe that his former attendant had died when he heard the news today saying that how could he die before me. Sakaguchi said that Hashimoto was like a son to him and said that Hashimoto’s wedding ceremony was one of the happiest days of his life and this is just a tragedy.

Tatsutoshi Goto along with Takashi Iizuka & Jushin Thunder Liger left the New Japan Dojo as soon as they heard the news of Hashimoto’s death and went to the funeral home where his body is being held at where they were met by Tadao Yasuda and they all sent their prayers to the family.

Yoshihiro Takayama expressed his shock today over learning from Hashimoto’s death before giving a lecture to a university in Tokyo and said that it is a truly sad day. Takayama said that he has had cerebral problems as well over the years and has beaten death a couple of times but it makes him sad that Hashimoto couldn’t do the same. Takayama said that he was hoping that when he returned to the ring that he would’ve had a singles match against Hashimoto, which was a dream of his, but that dream will never be realized now.

ZERO-ONE MAX President Yoshiyuki Nakamura expressed his disbelief and sadness over Hashimoto’s death and said that ZERO-ONE MAX would make an official announcement soon about the situation. Nakamura did say though that the phone lines at the Z1 home offices were pretty much blown out from the amount of calls over the news of Hashimoto’s death.

Wrestling Deaths - de pe www.wrestleview.com

Bruiser Brody
On July 17 1988 Frank "Bruiser Brody" Goodish was wrestling in Puerto Rico for WWC. It is believed Brody and wrestler Jose Gonzales (also known as Invader III) got into a fight over something and it resulted in Brody being stabbed to death by Gonzales. Gonzales was arrested and questioned but no other wrestler would testify against Gonzales as the other Puerto Rican wrestlers were not fond of American wrestlers at all and the American wrestlers were scared for their lives if they talked. The case was never figured out and Jose Gonzales has never been charged of anything.

Adrian Adonis
On July 4, 1988, Keith "Adrian Adonis" Franke died when his rented minivan hit a moose while on a wrestling tour in Newfoundland, Canada. Moose/vehicle accidents are rather common in Newfoundland in the summer months, however very few are fatal (maybe 5-6 deaths per year). Adonis' accident happenned just before sunset, with the low-lying sun blinding the driver. Inin the crash were wrestlers Pat Kelly and Dave McKigney. The driver who was also a wrestler Mike Kelly was not killed but had a severely injured leg.

Dino Bravo
On March 11, 1993 Dino Bravo was gunned down gangland style in his apartment in Quebec, Canada, and has been figured as the target of an organized crime hit because of his involvement in cigarette smuggling activities in Canada. Scores of spent shells were found with Bravo's bullet-ridden corpse. He was 44.

Louie Spicoli
Louie Spicoli has taken a large quantity of the drug Soma and large quantities of alcohol. It was rumored he died of a heart attack but the actual cause of death was suffocation on his own vomit.

Brian Pillman

Informatii folositoare, Double J! Interesant!

Imi pare rau ca nimeni nu l-a mentionat pana acum pe Johnny Grunge ... cu atat mai rau pentru mine intrucat sunt fan ECW insa nu mi-am gasit niciodata timp sa postez ceva despre el! S-a stins din viata pe 16 februarie la 39 de ani ... Imi pare rau de faptul ca inca o data a trebuit sa asistam la inca o moarte cauzata de extraordinarul efort pe care-l depun in ring wrestlerii in fiecare zi ... cred ca in fond, asta ne face sa apreciem mai mult ceea ce fac ei pentru a ne "distra" pe noi!

Mark Henry's Poem


Mark Henry had a very moving poem on Monday Night, one that I'll never forget. And it goes like this........

You feel the burn when you cry
It starts to come when someone dies

The pain you feel as your eyes swell and the tears will up in the wells

The burn starts to choke you up the words come out slow and shaken

You close your eyes and wonder why
There is a burn when you cry

When Owen left it felt like hands around my throat

I couldn't talk I couldn't see

The Burn over whelmed me

My heart is heavy this is why
You get the burn when you cry

It digs down deep you can not sleep

You toss and turn in your sheets

Awaken with sobs and wet pillow cases

You wander aimlessly looking to the sky

You feel the burn when you cry

- Mark Henry, Monday May 24th, 1999



Hart Family Settles with WWF


KANSAS CITY, Missouri - The family of professional wrestler Owen Hart, who died last year in a stunt gone awry at Kemper Arena, has agreed to settle its wrongful death lawsuit against the World Wrestling Federation, the city of Kansas City and other defendants for an undisclosed sum.

The settlement, which needs court approval before it becomes final, was disclosed in a motion filed by the parties late Friday afternoon with the Missouri Court of Appeals.

The appeals court was scheduled to hear oral arguments today on the WWF's allegation that the plaintiffs' lawyers had sought to influence witness testimony by promising Hart's siblings a share of any damage award in the case. The motion filed on Friday asked the court to continue or suspend the arguments pending approval of the settlement.

The 34-year-old Hart, known to WWF fans as the Blue Blazer, plunged 78 feet to his death on May 23, 1999, when the quick-release mechanism on his harness opened prematurely as he was being lowered into the ring. The wrestling event was televised live on pay-per-view cable television and was seen around the country.

Three weeks after the accident, Hart's widow, two minor children and parents sued the WWF, Kansas City and other defendants in Jackson County Circuit Court. The 46-count complaint alleged that the stunt was dangerous and poorly planned and that the harness system was defective.

The lawsuit sought unspecified damages.

In response to questions from The Kansas City Star, lawyers for the WWF and the Hart family issued a joint statement Monday saying that the WWF and the Harts "have come to an amicable agreement satisfactory to the parties, and the WWF will now continue the case against the entities which manufactured and sold the stunt equipment involved.

"We are awaiting the court's approval of the settlement, which is expected next week. The terms and conditions of the settlement otherwise speak for themselves."

A WWF attorney, Jerry McDevitt, said, "For the time being, we have agreed to limit our public comment to stating that an agreement has been reached, subject to court approval."

Although the lawyers declined to comment on the settlement's terms, a source close to the settlement negotiations said the WWF has agreed to pay the Hart family $18 million.

Under the settlement, the city -- and taxpayers -- are probably off the hook. The WWF's insurance contracts contain provisions calling for the city to be reimbursed if the city is found liable. Kansas City owns Kemper Arena.

Among other provisions, the settlement requires the Hart family to dismiss their petition before the Missouri Court of Appeals. That petition asked the court to order the WWF to return a disputed document to the Hart family and to bar the WWF from asking witnesses about it.

The Hart family's lawyers, the husband-and-wife team of Gary and Anita Robb, claimed the document was protected by attorney-client privilege and was wrongfully obtained by the WWF. The WWF said the document was an illegal attempt to tamper with witness testimony.

The Robbs asked Hart's 10 siblings to sign the document, but rescinded it after the WWF learned of its existence.

The document called for the siblings to share in any verdict awarded to Hart's parents if the siblings cooperated with the plaintiffs. It further provided that those siblings who cooperated with the WWF would not share in any damage award.

Under Missouri's wrongful death statute, the siblings can't be parties to the case as long as Hart's spouse, children or parents survive him. Because the siblings might have been witnesses in the case, the WWF contended the document was an attempt to buy their favorable testimony.

The siblings were in a position to testify on the issue of how many more years Hart intended to wrestle, which would have gone to the question of his lost earnings.

The Robbs insisted the document was nothing more than an effort to preserve family unity in the face of what they said were the WWF's attempts to negotiate a quick and cheap settlement with Hart's parents.

The squabble over the document threatened to divert attention from the underlying wrongful death lawsuit, which, besides the WWF and Kansas City, named 11 other defendants, including WWF Chairman Vince McMahon, the companies that manufactured or sold the harness system and the four riggers who set up the fatal stunt.

The lawsuit was filed by Hart's widow, Martha Hart; the Harts' two children, then ages 7 and 3; and Hart's parents, Stu and Helen Hart. All of the Hart family members live in Calgary, Alberta.

The settlement, if approved, would not end the litigation surrounding Hart's death. By saying that it will "continue the case" against the manufacturers and sellers of the rigging device, the WWF has signaled its intention to sue the companies.

nu te baga in istoria familiei Hart ca ai multe de citit acolo :) ...sa vezi relatii si increngaturi ,mai ceva ca-n telenovele

[Heath Scumm]

Legaturile dintre familiile Hart Si Mc Mahon sunt mai ceva decat Tanar si Nelinistit! Sincer, desi il consider pe Bret Hart luptatorul meu favorit din anii '90, acea vaicareala continua dupa Screw Job mi se parea jenanta ...

Am regretat extrem de mult cand Owen s-a stins din viata si am fost extrem de dezamagit de felul in care televiziunile romanesti au prezentat decesul ... s-au exprimat ca si cum am fi avut de-a face cu moartea unui circar si nu a unui adevarat atlet ... plus ca nici nu stiau foarte bine cum il cheama sau cine a fost ... Ii spuneau Blue Blazers ... Stirea a fost difuzata atunci pe PRO TV si pe Antena 1, daca nu ma insel!

Mai surprins cu informatia asta...nu stiam ca o televiziune din Romania a transmis o stire cu moartea lui Owen Hart...nu se vorbea mai deloc despre wrestling in acea perioada la TV in Romania...tin minte doar o stire despre Dennis Rodman si Hulk Hogan (cand a intrat Rodman in Wrestling pentru un PPV al WCW)...dar, na...era vorba in primul rand despre Dennis Rodman, un baschetbalist cunoscut in NBA, altfel nu vedeam nici acea stire daca era vorba despre altcineva...

John Tenta - s-a dus si el dar poate e mai bine asa avand in vedere ca se generalizase cancerul ce il manca din interior. Cand am citit stirea am fost mahnit.

Eddie a căzut victimă anabolizantelor. Cât despre feud-ul care s-a iscat după moartea sa, personal nu l-am agreat, dar decizia de a accepta aşa ceva a aparţinut familiei sale. Opiniile sunt împărţite şi aici, sunt convins, legat de moralitatea acestui gest. Se poate închega o discuţie extrem de interesantă pe tema asta.

Eu mi-am exprimat foarte multe opinii legate de acest feud ... nu ma mai repet!

Probabil că i se va rosti numele în următorul show Smackdown ori RAW, dacă nu cumva s-a parcurs deja această "etapă". N-am urmărit evenimentele de săptămâna asta. Mai mult nu cred că se va întâmpla legat de acest subiect.

Inca unu din cei mari sa stins. R.I.P. Bam Bam Bigelow


WWE.com has learned that former WWE Superstar Scott "Bam Bam" Bigelow has passed away in Florida.

Kevin Doll, the Public Information Director for the Pasco County Sheriff's Office confirmed that Bigelow was found dead early this morning in his home in Hudson, Fla.

"We can confirm that Scott Bigelow was found in his home this morning. At this time the cause of death is unknown," Doll told WWE.com.

Doll also confirmed that the Pasco-Pinellas Counties medical examiner has taken the body and an autopsy will be performed.

Bigelow, 45, worked for WWE, ECW and WCW extensively throughout his 20-year sports-entertainment career. A former ECW Champion, ECW Television Champion and WCW Tag Team Champion, he is perhaps best known for his rivalry with Lawrence Taylor that culminated in the main event of WrestleMania XI in 1995.

Stay tuned to WWE.com as more on Bigelow's passing becomes available.

[Darius]

Mi-a plãcut întotdeauna tipul ãsta, încã de pe vremea când am început sã mã uit prima oarã la wrestling, cu toate cã eram puºti, iar în general la vârsta aia nu prea eºti interesat de luptãtorii care îmbracã haine de heel.
Dacã ar fi sã mã gândesc azi la un wrestler care sã îi semene cât de cât, acela ar fi Samoa Joe. Ambii grei, dar în acelaºi timp agili.
RIP Bam Bam.

Sad man ... really sad :(

[John Cena]

Former ECW World champion and Wrestlemania main event Scott "Bam Bam" Bigelow was found dead in his Hudson, Florida home this morning. An investigation into his passing is currently ongoing by local authorities.

Bigelow broke into the business in the 1980s, training at New Jersey's Monster Factor under Larry Sharpe, often using the name Crusher Yurkof early in his career.

Bigelow began working the Memphis territory before having a hot run as a babyface in the then-World Wrestling Federation, managed by Oliver Humperdink. He appeared to be readymade for an eventual heel turn and feud with then-WWF champion Hulk Hogan, but it never came to pass.

After knee surgery, Bigelow went on to work for the Jim Crockett Promotions in the late 1980s including a memorable feud with Barry Windham over the United States championship.

Bigelow returned to the WWF as a heel member of Ted DiBiase's Million Dollar Corporation, headlining Wrestlemania 11 against New York Giant great Lawrence Taylor in Hartford, CT. The match closed the show (following Shawn Michaels vs. Kevin Nash) and Bigelow was given credit for carrying Taylor through an entertaining bout. A babyface turn followed, and Bigelow later left the company.

Bigelow had a long run in Extreme Championship Wrestling, feuding with Shane Douglas over the ECW World championship and Tazz over the ECW World Television championship, both belts Bigelow held in the company. As a member of the Triple Threat, Bigelow was paired with Douglas and the late Chris Candido.

In one of the most memorable moments ever on ECW PPV, Bigelow and Tazz crashed through the ring during Living Dangerously '98 in Bigelow's hometown of Asbury Park, NJ. Tazz was attempting to lock his finisher, The Tazzmission on Bigelow, who leaped backwards to escape. Both went through the ring to the floor below. Bigelow emerged first, pulling the unconscious Tazz back up to the ring, pinning him for the title.

Bigelow also took part in another ECW moment that has been repeated over and over, launching Matt "Spike Dudley" Hyson into the crowd from the ring, where Hyson was later bodysurfed by ringside fans. Bigelow added a great deal to the ECW product during that time period, feuding with and putting over ECW homegrown talents including Hyson and Rob Van Dam, giving those talents the rub of defeating a well-known international star.

Citing money issues, Bigelow later jumped to World Championship Wrestling as a surprise, challenging Bill Goldberg in an angle on Monday Nitro. Bigelow later settled into a unit with Chris Kanyon and Diamond Dallas Page.

In recent years, Bigelow had worked the independent scene before moving down to Florida. At one point, he announced retirement, but later returned. He owned a deli for a time in Pennsylvania before quietly closing it down, leaving the wrestling business and moving South to the Sunshine State.

He returned to the public eye after crashing a motorcycle he was riding with his girlfriend, who was seriously injured in the crash. Charges were later filed in the incident by authorities, but there was never any conclusive end to the case.

Bigelow appeared at one Florida autograph signing shortly after the crash, believed to be his last public appearance.

The St. Petersburg Times in Florida interviewed Bigelow some time after the incident, with Bigelow discussing the crash, his decision to leave wrestling, and other personal problems that plagued him as his career wound down.

Bigelow commented on his troubles and the physical issues a lifetime of professional wrestling has brought him, stating, "I don't know if it's hiding or disappointment or what, but being Bam Bam Bigelow is a pain in the a--. You did this the first half of your life and now this is the second half and now you're bruised and battered. So what the hell can you do? What can you do?"

We like to issue our condolences to the family, friends, and fans of Scott "Bam Bam" Bigelow.

Hmmmm :) numai douã pagini cu reply-uri pentru regretatul Bam Bam.

Asta demostreazã cã nu sunt prea mulþi pe aici care mai ºtiu cine a fost, sau care l-au vãzut luptând.

Vreau doar sã le spun cã nu ºtiu ce au pierdut.
He's a big part (ºi la propriu) in the history of wrestling.
Din câte am vãzut sunt destule meciuri cu el în secþiunea Multimedia, so.... :ok:

[Doctor_Satan]

Eu l-am vazut luptand si pot spune si eu ca a fost unul dintre preferatii mei!

Mike Awesome ... found dead .

From WON :

''Mike Alfonso, better known as Mike Awesome, was found dead on Saturday evening in the Tampa area according to those close to the family. He was 42.

Friends were coming to his home in Tampa to pick him up and go out Saturday night at about 10:30 p.m. and he never answered the door and found him hanging in the home. It is believed the death was due to suicide pending results of the autopsy.

Mike Awesome was one of the top foreign stars in FMW in Japan, who as a high-flying big man was made ECW champion on two occasions in 1999 and 2000. As champion, he signed with WCW, creating a situation that many feel ended up killing the title as Tazz from WWF was brought back to ECW to win the title, yet at the same time the title was jobbed in WWF.

He worked for a few months with WWF after the collapse of WCW, as well as with All Japan, but had not wrestled in some time. He was working as a realtor at Coldwell Banker at the time of his death.''

Inca unul :(

[h1mZ]

Ce rau imi pare ... un adevarat ECW original. Se pare ca s-a sinucis.

[thunder_liger]

Eu l-am vazut doar in meciuri din FMW . Dumnezeu sa-l odihneasca.

[Heath Scumm]

No freakin' way ... nu se poate asa ceva ... nu-mi vine sa cred. Imi pare atat de rau, chiar ma gandeam cand il voi mai vedea in ring ... nu cred sa fi vazut vreodata un meci rau intre el si Masato Tanaka, unul dintre cele mai bune feud-uri hardcore din toate timpurile ... cred ca ultima lor lupta a fost la primul ECW One Night Stand, in opinia mea a fost al doilea meci al serii dupa Main Event.

Pentru cei ce nu stiu, gimmickul pe care il are acum Test in ECW e gimmickul lui Mike Awesome, Test e o copie de "The Gladiator" din toate punctele de vedere (look, gimmick, arsenal ofensiv, atitudine etc.)

Nu-mi vine sa cred ... 4 reply-uri pentru unul dintre cele mai importante figuri din ECW! :(

Singura mea consolare e ca cei de pe forumul TV Sport nici macar nu au amintit de acest eveniment, dupa aia vedeam iar tot felul de mucosi care si-ar fi dat cu parerea despre moartea unui luptator magnific.

R.I.P Mike Awesome

--Badnews Allen passed away at 5:30 a.m. this morning in Calgary at the age of 63 from a heart attack. We have no further details. Allan Coage was an Olympic bronze medal winner in judo, started wrestling in Japan and was a legendary heel in Stampede Wrestling in the early 80s. He worked later in WWE as Badnews Brown. He was a tremendous promo and very outspoken about his career and was often voted among the best guests in the history of our radio show. (thanks to Bob Leonard)

Inca o veste tragica , macar pentru cei old school :(

[thunder_liger]

Asta chiar m-a intristat. Sa-i fie tarana usoara .

"Bad News Allen was one of those four or five wrestlers who I considered to be the hardest men in wrestling," Tom 'Dynamite Kid' Billington wrote in his autobiography. "He was definitely bad news. Don't get me wrong, he was a good friend, but once he got you in the ring, it was as if he didn't know you. I've had a lot of hard matches in my career, most of them in Japan, because that's how they like their wrestling, but the matches I had with Bad News were something else."

[Big Sexy]

sa se odihneasca in pace! Another one bites the dust :(

E regretabil cã multe din starurile wrestlingului nu ajung sã apuce bãtrâneþi fericite, în care sã se bucure de aprecierea fanilor din toatã lumea pentru lucrurile care le-au fãcut de-a lungul vieþii...
Dumnezeu sã-i odihneascã.

Am mai scris si pe forum despre luptele lui Yokozuna. Abia acum am aflat si eu ca a murit. Cu adevarat un lucru trist. Mi-a adus multa bucurie in suflet si a fost si va ramane unul din wrestlerii mei favoriti.


a fost un campion absolut legendar al wwf-ului, a fost omul care a demonstrat ca daca vrei cu adevarat ceva poti sa reusesti , in ciuda unor handicapuri mari (de ex, greutatea in cazul lui, a fost extrem de abil si de tehnic pentru gabaritul lui imens). a detinut de 2 ori centura wwf, si a fost multiplu campion la echipe cu "the blue blazer" owen hart.

nu te baga in istoria familiei Hart ca ai multe de citit acolo :) ...sa vezi relatii si increngaturi ,mai ceva ca-n telenovele

si british bulldog era ruda cu ei, si brian pillman avea ceva legaturi cu familia hart. nu stiu de de dynamite kid, dar am impresia ca el nu avea legaturi cu hart foundation. dar as fi curios sa aflu.

O femeie care merita respect.A luptat in AWA fiind de 4 ori campiona,o data in WWE si introdusa in Hall of Fame.Pacat a luptat prin WWF,WCW,AWA fiind alaturi de wrestleri ca Macho-Man,Dibiase.Cititi mai jos si aflati mai multe.Daca ati urmarit impacturile din 2006,ati vazut o femeie care a discutat cu Bobby Roode.Ea era aceea,in 1991 a fost desemnata managerul anului,iar ea a fost manager la echipa faimoasa din WCW Harlem HEat(Booker T&Stevie Ray)


PWInsider.com is sorry to report the passing of WWE Hall of Famer Sherri Martel, real name Sherri Russel today. A former WWF and AWA Women's champion, Martel is probably best remembered for her role of one of the best female heel managers of all time during her 1990s WWF run, working alongside Shawn Michaels, Ted DiBiase, and Randy Savage, among others.

R.I.P. Sherri you will be missed :(

Este vorba despre aceeasi Sister Sherri, tipa care iesea cu Harlem Heat?
Ea parca a fost introdusa in WWE HOF anul trecut. Care a fost cauza decesului?

Din moment ce nimeni nu spune nimic despre chestia asta, o voi face eu

RIP Nancy "Woman" Daus

Nancy Elizabeth Daus Sullivan Benoit (May 21, 1964 - c. June, 2007) (more commonly known by her in-ring names as Woman and Fallen Angel) was a professional wrestling valet and manager in Jim Crockett Promotions, Extreme Championship Wrestling and World Championship Wrestling.

http://i131.photobucket.com/albums/p307/joeykaos/Womangroup1.jpg


Career

Early days
When George Napolitano needed a beautiful young girl for the cover of the June 1984 edition of the pro-wrestling magazine Wrestling All Stars fellow photographer Bill Otten suggested the young Nancy Daus for the role. Nancy, who had worked as a model, often sat alongside her then-husband Jim to watch matches and was no newcomer to being involved with professional wrestling. Nancy, who had been selling programs at the Orlando shows, also appeared as "Para" in the old "Apartment Wrestling" features. It was on this shoot where she met Kevin Sullivan who became enamored with her. Sullivan eventually wanted her to be a part of his wrestling entourage, and after months of convincing, Nancy finally became an on-air valet, taking the name Fallen Angel. She made her in-ring debut on July 7, 1984 at the Lakeland Civic Center in Lakeland, Florida for Florida Championship Wrestling.

She became a part of Kevin Sullivan's stable of "Satanists", which also included wrestlers Luna Vachon, The Purple Haze, and Sir Oliver Humperdink. Nancy and Kevin Sullivan traveled throughout the United States using the "Satanist" gimmick for promotions such as Angelo Savoldi's ICW and Southwest Championship Wrestling. The two married in 1985.


National Wrestling Alliance
In 1989, Nancy appeared in the NWA's Jim Crockett Promotions as Robin Green, Rick Steiner's biggest fan who sat at ringside cheering him on during matches. Eventually she talked Rick into letting her actually stand at ringside with Missy Hyatt during a tag-team match with brother Scott against the Fabulous Freebirds, Michael Hayes and Jimmy Garvin. Nancy caused the Steiners to lose the match and soon left Rick to manage the masked team of Doom (Ron Simmons and Butch Reed). During this time she also changed her name to Woman. The Steiner Brothers and Doom went on to feud, with the Steiners still seeking revenge on Woman. In response, she acquired a bodyguard known as Nitron to protect her from them.

In 1990, Ric Flair and his Four Horsemen soon caught her wandering eye and she dumped Nitron and Doom to manage Flair. She fit in well with the "dirtiest player in the game", interfering in his matches and helping him keep his NWA World Title. She left the NWA by after the Capitol Combat '90 pay-per-view however.

She later rejoined her husband Kevin in smaller promotions, mainly running out of the Northeast.


Extreme Championship Wrestling
In 1993, Kevin and Nancy surfaced in the fledgling ECW, where - once again called simply Woman - she managed Sullivan and The Tazmaniac to the ECW Tag Team Championships. When Kevin resought the greener pastures of WCW, Nancy remained in ECW, going on to manage Sandman and 2 Cold Scorpio. She captivated the crowd as, once again, she almost seamlessly reinvented herself to fit with The Sandman's gimmick - opening his beers, lighting his cigarettes, and destroying his opponents with her own kendo stick.


World Championship Wrestling
After being unceremoniously dumped by Sandman and Scorpio in ECW, she once again resurfaced in WCW, first appearing on the January 29, 1996 edition of WCW Monday Nitro as one of many women who stood in the aisle and waved as Hulk Hogan and Randy Savage came to the ring. She stayed at ringside, but she soon turned on Savage and rejoined Flair, Arn Anderson and Chris Benoit in the then-current incarnation of the Four Horsemen. Miss Elizabeth also managed the stable.

In 1996, the Horsemen added Steve McMichael and his wife Debra, which didn't sit well with Woman. The two began bickering and not getting along in general. At the same time, she started an on-screen relationship with Benoit, rubbing it in Sullivan's face. As fate would have it, this on-screen relationship developed into a real affair off-screen. This resulted in a violent feud between Benoit and Sullivan that saw Woman clashing with Sullivan's then-valet Jacquelyn at ringside. In one match, the two ladies were strapped together, took shots at each other, and used the strap connecting them as a weapon against the men.

Sullivan and Nancy (off-screen) divorced in 1997, and (on-screen) Sullivan lost a retirement match to Benoit. It is often joked that 'Kevin Sullivan booked his own divorce'. Sullivan's intent was to retire from in-ring action and focus on booking. As a booker, Sullivan caused Nancy to (off-screen) quit wrestling when she refused to be topless in an angle Sullivan created for a PPV.

Nancy and Benoit became engaged in 1997, although Benoit didn't start referring to Nancy as his wife until shortly before the birth of their son Daniel in 2000 (on his former official website, Nancy was referred to as his fiancee). Although she was never an on-air performer, she did actively manage her husband's career from their home in Atlanta.

[Heath Scumm]

Aseara s-a stins inca un luptator de baza din vechiul ECW ... John Kronus care a format impreuna cu Perry Saturn echipa Eliminators.

Manevra lor de echipe - Total Elimination - a fost una dintre cele mai populare manevre de dublu din wrestling.

Un highflyer excelent pentru statura sa, Kronus era practic un heavyweight care facea manevre de cruiserweight. E persoana care a adus practic 450 Splash-ul in State chiar daca Juvi Guerrero a facut aceasta manevra faimoasa in WCW.

RIP Kronus ... You will be missed!

http://files.vgpub.com/images/Smackdown%20vs.%20Raw%20Belt%20Guide/ECWWorldTagTitle.jpg

Detalii despre moartea lui nu sunt cunoscute inca ... cert este ca a murit in casa prietenei sale la cateva zile dupa o operatie foarte complicata la genunchi.

[Reaper]

I-am vazut o singura data pe Eliminators (intr-un PPV ECW), dar a fost de ajuns ca sa ma impresioneze.
RIP Kronus

Ce varsta avea? (presupun ca nici el nu ajunsese la 50)

[RockBerg]

Se vede clar de ce Hogan si Flair nu-s morti inca.
Pentru ca nu faceau nimic in ring.Overrated trash.

R.I.P KRONUS...even if I didn't know you.

[clau_goll]

Nu am vazut nici un meci cu el.Oricum R.I.P :(

[ThePhenom]

be honest pls.....in fata cui l-ai vazut?


Am vazut un meci cu el de la Ultimate Jeopardy 1996:The Eliminators vs The Samoan Gangsta Party si tot la Ultimate Jeopardy 1996 a mai fost The Eliminators vs The Gangstas si am mai vazut un meci cu el din 2005 vs Balls Mahoney.

[Heath Scumm]

De unde ai vazut meciul din 2005? Show-urile Hardcore Homecoming sunt extrem de greu de gasit.

[PSYCHO]

Nici eu nu am vazut nimic cu el ... Care a fost cauza mortii? R.I.P.

[Heath Scumm]

As said before

Detalii despre moartea lui nu sunt cunoscute inca ... cert este ca a murit in casa prietenei sale la cateva zile dupa o operatie foarte complicata la genunchi.

Se speculeaza ca niste complicatii la operatie ar fi cauzat moartea, ca si in cazul lui chris Candido.

[PSYCHO]

Stiam eu ca emigrarea excesiva de doctori din Romania in USA nu e prea buna! Sigur erau romani doctorii care l-au operat!

Scuze de remarca asta, dar cam asa imi inchipui eu ...

[Heath Scumm]

Inca o data se vede ca viata unui pro-wrestler este extrem de grea, un motiv in plus sa-i respectam pe acesti incredibil atleti.

[RockBerg]

Inca o data se vede ca viata unui pro-wrestler este extrem de grea.
Exact asta i-am zis cuiva azi.

Nu e cazul la toti wrestlerii,multi (cei de success) iau droguri si alte minuni,unii nu fac atat efort,dar pro-wrestling-ul este extenuant,mai ales la nivelul WWE.Tragi pana mori.Literalmente.

Un motiv in plus sa dispretuiesti pe cineva care-si da cu parerea despre wrestling cum ca ar fi fake,walk in the park.Un boxer se pregateste saptamani pentru un meci....in wrestling e posibil sa ai match-uri zilnic.Este ceva serios,nu e ceva care tratat ca si cum ar fi o joaca la TV.Inca o data,depinde si de federatie si wrestleri.
Din cate stiu eu WWE are ritmul infernal.

''"God of Wrestling" passes away today


by Dave Meltzer

Karl Charles Istaz, known internationally as Karl Gotch, passed away at 9:45 p.m. Eastern time tonight. He was a few days shy of 83 years old.

A former place-winner in the 1948 Olympics in London, Istaz went to the famed Wigan school where he learned submission wrestling. He migrated to the U.S. where he had a reputation in some circles as the toughest man alive.

He ended up becoming a legend in Japan, where he was eventually nicknamed "The God of Professional Wrestling." He was the trainer for New Japan Pro Wrestling and later the original UWF, and his influence in students like Akira Maeda and Nobuhiko Takada led to the rise of shootfighting and eventually MMA in that country.''


Uite un om care a fost in lupte mult mai periculoase si adevarate decat orce superstar WWE si totusi nu a murit inainte de 50 . S-a stins o adevarata legenda in pro wrestling :(

[Heath Scumm]

Depinde ce intelegi prin "periculos" si "adevarat", la fel si prin "orice superstar WWE" ...

RIP Karl Gotch ... Din fericire stiu cine esti si stiu cat de important ai fost pentru pro-wrestling ...

Dupa ce a avut un meci cu Yokozuna (a incasat squash-ul ala) a lipsit o vreme (nu stiu daca era kayfabe) si la intoarcerea a devenit heel.Evident il uram pentru asta.

WWE is saddened by the passing of Lillian Ellison, who was known to sports-entertainment fans as Hall of Famer Fabulous Moolah. She passed away last night in Columbia, S.C.

In the world of women’s wrestling, there will always be one irrefutable legend that stands head and shoulders above the rest: The Fabulous Moolah. She was the longest reigning champion in the history of her chosen sport, or any sport for that matter. And with more than 50 years in the business to her credit, she established a legacy that will never be forgotten, making her name synonymous with female wrestling.

Former WWE Superstar Andrew “Test” Martin passed away last night at his home in Tampa, Florida at the age of 33, just four days away form his 34th birthday. We don’t have many more details right now, but reports say he was found in his apartment. Tampa area authorities have declined to confirm it is Martin but word within the wrestling industry has been widespread.

Martin was suspended under the WWE Wellness Policy back in 2007 and shortly released from his contract. Martin made a few appearances for TNA that year and talked about retiring from the business but has made several appearances overseas since then, working a match in Japan last month. Martin was scheduled to leave this for a wrestling tour of Europe.

We will keep you updated with more details as they come in. Our deepest condolences go out to Martin’s friends and family.

Holy shit. Îmi pare rãu de el.

R.I.P. ... Ceva informaþii despre cauza morþii?

[Heath Scumm]

Era in opinia mea noul Mike Awesome. Avea tot ce-i trebuia ... look de superstar, charisma, fizic impresionant, forta incredibila si agilitate de cruiserweight.

RIP Andrew, you will be missed!!

Un highlight video pt. un meci entertaining din ECW - vs RVD - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Zhof3Fc-_cg ... uitati-va la minutul 2.30 in care Test face un Coast To Coast Elbow Drop cu un scaun metalic pe RVD, ceva incredibil pentru un om de talia lui.

Si un tribut pentru ce-a insemnat Test in pro-wrestling - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EPk55wgadNs
