The real life of...

[Reaper]

S-a dezvoltat o discutie in thread-ul "Realism Vs Intensite" pentru care, cred eu, merita deschis un thread nou. Propun sa vorbim aici despre viata particulara a luptatorilor, viata din afara ringului. Write on :yeah:

Mai sus sunt prezentate numele celor care activeaza in prezent in WWE.

[Big Sexy]

Sunt sigur ca multi dintre voi au vazut documentarul de pe HBO in care persnaje principale erau Mankind si Jake "the Snake". AM avut ocazia sa vad nenumarate aspecte ale vietii lor private si am fost uluit sa vad cum dintr-o legenda ca Jake "the snake" a ramas doar un batranel care lupta prin indy pentru cativa dolari cu care sa isi cumpere droguri. Ca avea si probabil mai are probleme cu drogurile am mai spus despre Eddie Guerrero insa deocamdata nu a ajuns la nivelul ala. sper sa o faca in curand sa ne lase in pace. Si-a ranit destul fanii si familia.

[Heath Scumm]

Eddie Guerrero isi raneste fanii prin gimmick-ul lui ...totusi, problema sa cu drogurile e reala ... si WWE nu s-au sfiit sa o arate.

Cativa dintre luptatorii mei preferati au probleme reale cu dependenta in viata de zi cu zi ...

Raven - alcoolic notoriu
Jeff Hardy - Cocaine Addict ... acum se crede ca si-a revenit
Shane Douglas - fost alcoolic
Steve Austin - Trebuie sa mai spun? Alcoolic ... Cred ca fraza adresata lui Goldberg "I fear no Spear like I fear no beer!" vorbeste de la sine ...
BG James aka Road Dogg - alcoolic

Lista continua la nesfarsit ...

Ceea ce m-a nemultumit foarte mult a fost refuzul WWE de a-l ajuta pe Jeff Hardy sa treaca peste problema sa cu drogurile si sa-i dea o sansa sa se intoarca in ring alaturi de fratele lui ... insa nu conteaza ... Jeff are un nou camin in vestiarul TNA

[Big Sexy]

Probabil ca eddie nu vroia sa imparta drogurile cu nimeni (Jeff Hardy), nu? Insa asta e o discutie demna de un alt tread si nu vreau sa degenereze, insa nu m-am putut abtine :).

Din toate aceste informatii am dedus 2 lucruri:
1) Wrestlerii prefera sa se insoare cu una dintre Nitro Girls sau divele din wrestling. Cine poate sa-i condamne?
2) Luna e maritata cu Gangrel. Daca stiam asta acum aprox. acum o saptamana nu mai scriam Dracula ca sa ma umilesc in fata tuturor.
http://groups.msn.com/TheWorldWrestlingOrg/wrestleroftheweek.msnw
Am dat si link-ul de unde am luat informatiile poate va mai intereseaza ceva.
PS: The Rock var cu Yokozuna? Serios?

[Big Sexy]

http://www.firetank.com/smashwrestling/wrestlingrelations.shtml

cred ca si asta raspunde la intrebarile tale. In afara de asta mai gasisem un site imens specializat pe asa ceva. Din pacate nu am copiat adresa si am uitat search-ul exact pe care l-am dat pentru el

[Reaper]

E aiurea ca n-am vazut pe niciunul dintre link-uri la ce data s-au inregistrat relatiile. Sunt diferente mari in ce priveste cuplurile.
Ce am aflat de pe link-ul dat de tine:
1) Booker T. e frate cu Stevie Ray. M-am ros multa vreme intrebarea asta. A existat un feud intre astia doi si Steiner Bros care mi-a placut mult si de-acolo a aparut curiozitatea.
2) Horace e intr-adevar nepotul lui Hogan. N-am crezut nici o clipa chestia asta.
3) Kevin Sullivan(n-am idee cine-i asta) e casatorit Woman. E vreun nume de scena Woman sau incearca sa se demonstreze ca Sullivan e str8?

[Big Sexy]

1. Faza dintre booker T si Stevie Ray esra cunoscuta de aproape toti care au prin perioada WCW. Acum am inteles ca Stevie Ray nu a fost dorit de WWF mai ales ca nu mai luptase de mult si astfel doar Booker T a reusit sa intre in WWF.
2. Cand a fost prezentat Horace ca nepot a lui Hogan am crezut ca e o gluma. Nu imi venea sa cred ca un "zeu" al wrestlingului are rude. Cu timpul m-am informat si am aflat ca el este intr-adevar nepotul sauinsa din cauza evolutiei sale discutabile nu s-a mai batut deloc moneda pe acest aspect si incet incet Horace a fost aruncat la ocsul de gunoi al istoriei ca un experiment esuat.
3. Chiar n-am ce sa comentez aici. Nu pricep nimic.

[Heath Scumm]

Acum raspunsurile bune:

1. Da! Booker T. si Stevie Ray sunt frati!

2. Horace e nepotul lui Hogan ... nu e nici o gluma ... se vede dupa fata ca sunt rude ;)

3. Kevin Sullivan e o legenda a WCW. Activand sub porecla de "THE TASK MASTER" a fost mult timp echivalentul momentan a lui Triple H. in WCW (nu stiu daca intelegeti ce vreau sa spun :thinkso: ) ... era liderul unui grup numit Dungeon Of Doom a carui manager era Jimmy Hart. A pierdut un "I Quit!" Match impotriva lui Hulk Hogan si a fost "dat afara" din WCW insa feud-ul ala a fost unul dintre cele mai bune pe care le-am vazut vreodata. Cred ca asta se intampla prin 1997 ... sau 1996 ... sau 1998 ... heh! A trecut mult de atunci!

@Reaper
Woman a fost o mare luptatoare in WCW. Daca ai fi citit mai cu atentie lucrurile pe care le-ai postat prima oara, ai vedea ca Woman e casatorita momentan cu luptatorul numit Chris Benoit!:)

Da! Si e evident ca The Rock e var cu Rikishi insa nu e var de prim rang cu Yokozuna ... e un var mai indepartat ... ah! Shi Rikishi e var cu luptatorul numit Jamal deci asta inseamna ca The Rock e var si cu asta. Nu stiu cine e Tonga Kid? O fi Jamal? Grasu asta n-are cum sa poarte numele de KID!

[Big Sexy]

British Bulldog - Bret Hart, Owen Hart - Brothers-in-Law
British Bulldog - Diana Hart-Smith - Divorced
British Bulldog - Jim "The Anvil Neidhart - Brothers-in-Law

Damn, ce nebunie, acum am vazut cat de legat de familia hart era BB. Si el si Owen se lupta acum pentru titlul de "norisorul de puf alb" la categoria ingeras supraponderal muschiulos", cred.

[cutuma]

1. Faza dintre booker T si Stevie Ray esra cunoscuta de aproape toti care au prin perioada WCW. Acum am inteles ca Stevie Ray nu a fost dorit de WWF mai ales ca nu mai luptase de mult si astfel doar Booker T a reusit sa intre in WWF.



I miss Harlem Heat :yeah:

[Heath Scumm]

Harlem Heat sucked ... oricum, singurul luptator cu potential dintre cei 2 era Booker t. ... cu potential spun deoarece executa acel Flip sinucigas de pe corzi numit Harlem Hangover!

Revenind la Topic ... m-am interesat si nici unul dintre cei 3 Dudleyz nu au nici macar o picatura din acelasi sange ... deci nu sunt frati! :rolleyes: ...

[Reaper]

Iar Luger intai tre' sa scape de puscarie inainte de a-shi face planuri de viitor
Ce stii despre Lex? Ce a facut? Ce cauta in inchisoare? As vrea sa-l revad in ring aproape la fel de mult cat vreau sa-l vad pe Sting.

[cutuma]

Luger is now facing 13 drug charges in Marietta, Georgia after the May 1, 2003 suspicious death of his companion, WWE figure Miss Elizabeth.

[Big Sexy]

Am vazut acum meciul dintre macho Man si George "The Animal" Steel unde scenariul spunea ca George era indragostit de Miss Elisabeth si Macho Man o trata mizerabil. Tipa arata exceptional pe vremea aceea (Wrestlemania 2 - il am pe tot btw :) ). Ma intreb ce simt oare luptatorii cand isi implica familia sau iubitele in scenarii.

[Reaper]

Eu nu cred ca simt nimic atunci cand sotiile lor trebuie sa sarute vreun alt wrestler. Gandeste-te cum ar trebui sa se simta sotii actritelor de filme pornografice si o sa-ti dai seama ca, fata de asta, ceea ce se intampla in wrestling nu reprezinta nimic.
Ei constientizeaza ca este doar un scenariu si cand show-ul se termina revin la viata lor.

[Heath Scumm]

Deci vrei sa spui ca wrestlerii au aceeasi mentalitate ca si actorii de filme pornografice?:rolleyes:

[Big Sexy]

Buff bagwell are aceeasi mentalitate :D

[Big Sexy]

Cine urmareste show-ul Hogan Knows Best, si ma refer al a urmari intreg show-ul nu numai pe fata lor? Eu incep sa cred ca show-ul este regizat mai ceva ca un meci de wrestling, tot ce vad acolo mi se pare fals si facut de dragul publicitatii, e de inteles asta dar nu e ceva cu care sa fiu de acord.

[Heath Scumm]

Acesta este primul episod din Reality show-ul pus in scena de HOGAN ... unii spun ca e penal, altii s-au aratat interesati de proiect ...

Eu nu am fost impresionat insa banuiesc ca daca esti fan al lui Hogan o sa-ti placa ...

[Big Sexy]

Nu trebuie sa fii fan Hogan sa iti placa, eu le-am vazut pe toate si mi s-au parut amuzante, iti ofera si o alta fata a superstarurilor fiindca in show-uri mai apar si alte staruri.

[Heath Scumm]

Am vazut ieri reclama la Hogan Knows Best pe VH1 ... o sa incerc sa uploadez episoadele inainte ca acestea sa apara la VH1 ... ca sa le puteti vedea pe calculator ;)

[Th3 Gam3 HHH]

Cumva , in viata reala , Triple H este casatorit cu Stephanie McMahon ?!

[Big Sexy]

:P, dap, nu stiai pana acum? Initial ai fi tenta sa spui ca de aia e number one in WWE insa daca te gandesti putin in urma pana im momentul in care nu stiai detaliul asta o sa intelegi ca nu e deloc asa si ca totul se datoreaza talentului sau.

[Th3 Gam3 HHH]

Am urmarit off the record cu HHH , (din 2004 ) si HHH zicea Vince va face ceea ce trebuie pt ca afacerea sa mearga bine, si daca asta includea ca HHH sa plece , asa se facea ... in emisiune erau niste franturi de cuvinte cum ca ar fi casatorit cu Stephanie , dar credeam ca se refera la momentul cand au fost casatoriti la Raw ...

[Heath Scumm]

HHH s-a casatorit cu Stephanie anul trecut intr-o nunta extrem de intima ...

[Th3 Gam3 HHH]

Anul trecut ?! Pai tocmai acum vreo 3 zile , scria pe un site ca tocmai s-au implinit 2 ani de cand s-au casatorit ( 25 Octombrie 2003 ). Merci pt informatie , chiar nu stiam . Chiar imi plac amandoi , si cred ca se potrivesc .Ca sa nu mai zic ca cine stie , cand nu va mai fii Vince , cine credeti ca ar avea sanse sa fie in locul lui ?!

[Heath Scumm]

Da ... sorry ... sfarsitul lui 2003 ... my bad!

[Ninja]

hehehe HHH nicodata in frunte ! Shane rules ;)

[Th3 Gam3 HHH]

O poveste interesanta , pe care daca aveti timp sa o cititi v-as recomanda-o .Intrebarea mea ar fi : e reala ?! (eu zic ca da din moment ce am postat-o aici ,voi?!) :


"Former WWE World Champion Facing Difficult Times

The following is a story from The St. Petersburg Times.

Bam Bam Bigelow skidded off the motorcycle and onto the hard wet asphalt on State Road 50 one Sunday in early October on the west side of Hernando County.

The woman who had been on the back of his bike hit the pavement with a sound one witness said was like an open palm slapping the surface of water. Then she flopped around like a rolled-up rug.

Bam Bam landed about 50 feet up the road. The former professional wrestler with the tattooed scalp and the name no one can forget was covered in blood, but he managed to get up. He held his scraped-up arms straight out from his sides. He lurched back toward the woman, who was moaning.

He looked like a monster, the witness said later.

"Oh, baby," Bam Bam was saying. "I'm so sorry."

He collapsed almost on top of the woman. His body was touching hers. His head was by her head.

The man who used to wrestle people to the ground and jump on them and pick them up and throw them was powerless. For almost all athletes, there is the inevitability of a life after people stop cheering. For Bam Bam Bigelow, the story includes addiction to painkillers, time in rehab, calls from creditors, a costly divorce, three kids he hasn't seen in more than a year and child support not paid.

And a new love.

The woman on the bike was Janis Remiesiewicz, who's 41, has a house in Port Richey and has been dating Bam Bam for a year.

The name state troopers got off Bam Bam's license was Scott C. Bigelow, 44, with an address in New Jersey.

But the last address for Bigelow in public records was in Lake Ariel, Pa., and that ended this past April. It was on a road called the Hideout.

Men who weigh more than 300 pounds, have tattooed heads and answer to Bam Bam do not just disappear.

Unless they want to.

On Oct. 2, though, Bam Bam Bigelow was taken to Spring Hill's Oak Hill Hospital. Janis was flown to Tampa General and listed in critical condition.

Meanwhile, the woman who lives in Bam Bam's old house in Allenhurst, N.J., has to deal with the guys who keep looking for the previous owner.

"They pull up in front of the house and they stare at the house," Josephine Schror said over the phone. "Then they knock on the door and ask for Scott, and I tell them he doesn't live here no more. And they ask me if I know where he is and then they sit in the car and write s--- down and then they drive off."

She says this happens all the time.

The e-mails started coming almost immediately after the story about the crash ran in the St. Petersburg Times.

Wrestling fans wanted to know two things:

How is Bam Bam doing?

And where has he been?

Bam Bam Bigelow was huge. The 6-4 tough guy from small, rough Asbury Park, N.J., wrestled as heavy as 425 pounds. But he was agile enough to jump off the tops of the ropes and down onto his opponents in the ring.

His trademark move was a pile driver he called "Greetings from Asbury Park."

"It just blows a guy's head right off his shoulders," he once told the Seattle Times.

Bigelow played the role of the "heel" in his heyday. That means he was the bad guy in the staged matches. But he was a star.

He made his debut in the World Wrestling Federation in 1987 and won titles in Extreme Championship Wrestling and World Championship Wrestling. He wrestled with Hulk Hogan and Diamond Dallas Page and against Andre the Giant. He was in the headliner match at 1995's WrestleMania in front of more than 16,000 people.

He was even in a couple of B movies and did a commercial for Slim Jim.

But his wrestling career did not come to an easy end.

WCW folded in 2001. He didn't go to WWE. There was no ECW anymore.

Bam Bam had back problems. He had surgery. He went on a radio show in early 2002, according to 1wrestling.com, and said his career was not over and that this was "just the beginning."

According to www.obsessedwithwrestling.com and other pro wrestling Web sites, Bam Bam retired in November 2002 and unretired a month after that, only to lose to someone named Abdullah the Butcher, then quit for good in 2004 - ending a slow, reluctant fade from fame.

"It's kind of like Hollywood," said Ron Jordan, who writes a syndicated wrestling column from Fort Worth, Texas. "Only so many people can be on top at one time. Most of these guys, when they slip from the big leagues, like the WCW or the WWF or the new WWE, they just kind of slip into obscurity. Then they show up in some small arena or at a YMCA or something."

Bam Bam opened a deli in Hamlin, Pa., where he sold a 2-pound hamburger. That didn't last.

Anthony DeBlasi, who writes for Wrestling-News.com, said in an e-mail that Bam Bam contacted him early in 2004 asking for help selling a wrestling ring and some of his other mementos on eBay.

Frank Goodman, Bam Bam's agent, also got a call: "Scott said, "Listen, I need to make money again.' "

Bam Bam wrestled in small shows on New York's Long Island in the early and middle parts of 2004. Then he started missing shows, according to Goodman. The last time he wrestled was Nov. 19, 2004.

And then he disappeared.

"Nobody could find him," said Dave Meltzer, editor of Wrestling Observer.

One of his best friends in wrestling died in April. Bam Bam didn't show up at the funeral.

A wrestling fan spotted him in Tampa over the summer, took a picture and posted it on the Web.

"That's the only way we knew he was alive," Goodman said.

Then Bam Bam Bigelow left Hernando County's Bayport Inn with his girlfriend on the back of his brother's 1998 black-and-chrome Harley Davidson and headed toward SR 50.

He stopped at the intersection of U.S. 19. The light turned green and he sped off, then stopped again at Deltona Boulevard. Both times, according to a witness, Debby Tessier of Brooksville, he almost tipped over.

Tessier had her cell phone out and was dialing 911 before the bike even went down.

It happened about 4:30 p.m., according to the report from the Florida Highway Patrol, when Bam Bam tried to change from the outside lane to the inside. Bam Bam and Janis weren't wearing helmets. No other vehicles were involved.

The Harley hit the ground.

Eventually they did too.

Janis came to a stop on her stomach with her arms by her sides. She was wearing a tank top and denim short shorts.

"The skin on her face was just chewed up," Tessier said. "Her noise and mouth were just pouring blood. . . . "We thought she was dead."

The FHP is waiting for the results of Bam Bam's blood test to come back from the toxicology lab in Tallahassee.

"We are well aware of what the factors were that led to this crash," FHP spokesman Larry Coggins said.

The FHP has up to a year to file charges against Scott C. Bigelow. "Charges are forthcoming," Coggins said. "Absolutely."

The accident threw Bam Bam back into the public eye. Any attempt at anonymity was over.

Calls started to come along with the e-mails.

Bam Bam's ex-wife, Dana Fisher, returned a call from the St. Petersburg Times a few days after the accident. She and Bigelow divorced five years ago, and their oldest child is now 17.

"I always figured it would come back on him sooner or later and that he'd have to answer questions and be accountable," she said.

Court records in New Jersey show a charge of endangering the welfare of a child in May 2004. He was accused of driving recklessly with one of his children in the car, but he said it was because of a seizure. The charge was dismissed two months later.

There is a possession of marijuana charge from August 2004. Guilty.

In the last few years, he has been sued by Jersey Shore Anesthesia, Jersey Shore University Medical Center and the state's Department of Motor Vehicles. The judgment amounts range from $2,700 to $19,440. The cases are open.

Fisher has sued him three times this year for nonpayment of child support.

Bam Bam owes $8,909.

"He did pay something this year, but he's not paying like he should," said Monmouth County probation officer Charlotte Shaw. "If he was here, I'd do a bench warrant."

Goodman, Bam Bam's agent, talked last month about how his client still could make $800 to $1,000 a night.

"He is money in the bank," Goodman said. "He is a wrestling legend. Other than Andre the Giant and Hulk Hogan, he is the best 300-pound-plus wrestler to ever step in a wrestling ring. I've got to tell you something: I have a show next month, and I would put Bam Bam Bigelow in that show for $1,000 without even giving it a thought.

"Because he's Bam Bam Bigelow."

Bam Bam has had it with Bam Bam. He just wants to be Scott.

Those records up in Jersey aren't the only reason he wanted to disappear.

He didn't want to talk at first. He didn't want to talk when he was in the hospital. He didn't want to talk when he got home.

On a recent Sunday, though, he was sitting on a couch in Janis' house in Port Richey. A black Nike ball cap covered the tattoos on the top of his scalp.

"I don't know if it's hiding or disappointment or what," he said. "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?"

Scott C. Bigelow has no real permanent address. He sometimes stays with his brother, Todd, who's one year older, at his home in Spring Hill, but most of the time he's in Port Richey. "He goes back and forth," Todd Bigelow said.

In his best years, according to him and his agent, he was making anywhere from $750,000 to $1.2-million. He lost everything, he says, in his divorce: cars, trucks, motorcycles, his house. Now he lives on Social Security disability.

Creditors call.

The child support isn't going away.

Medical bills are coming.

"You can't pay what you can't afford," he said.

When he talks about Janis - "a bright spot in my life" - Bam Bam's lower lip turns soft.

"Both of us should've been dead from this accident," he said.

"Not should've been," Janis said. "Could've been."

"I had a few beers that day," he said. "But it wasn't nothing exceeding what people go overboard with. Who knows? It's all a blur. It doesn't matter. It happened."

Bam Bam broke his nose and got a deep cut on his forehead and still has a gash in his leg and scabs on his elbows and knees. Janis has a broken foot and a nasty scar around her right eye.

He creaks. He gets up slowly.

He says he was addicted to OxyContin for most of his career in wrestling but that he is now clean. He says he came down here because the warm weather makes his aches and pains feel a little less sharp. He says he wanted to get away.

Most of his friends are dead.

Ted "Flyboy Rocco Rock" Petty died of a heart attack in 2002. Jerry "the Wall" Tuite died of a drug overdose in 2003. Chris Candido died in spring of a blood clot after he broke his leg wrestling in Japan.

"And it's all due to wrestling," he said. "It's that simple. With me there's no glory in wrestling. . .. I thought out of sight, out of mind would be the best thing for me."

Yet he said on this particular Sunday - five weeks to the day after the accident - that he's happier now than he has ever been.

"It's like two phases of life," he said, sitting on the couch next to Janis, holding her hand. "The man who had everything and was miserable. And the man who has nothing and is happy.

"It don't cost nothin' to go watch the sunset," he said.

That's what Bam Bam Bigelow keeps telling himself. "

^ Stiam povestea asta! ... oarecum ... insa sa spui chestia "he lost to some guy called Abdulah The Butcher!" e un sacrilegiu pentru un fan hardcore ... Abdullah The Butcher nu e doar "un tip" .... e o legenda a hardcore-ului si probabil luptatorul care a inventat Death Match-ul in forma care o vedem astazi in CZW desi bazele Death Match-ului au fost puse de Mick Foley si Terry Funk!

Ric Ric Ric ! Chiar nu stiam ca in viata reala mai face si d-astea :

"Across the 6 o'clock news today on ABC, there was a short report that the "Nature Boy" Ric Flair is again in trouble with the law. They noted that reportedly last week during a traffic delay flair came out of his car and starting to assault the man in the car in front of him, as well as repeatedly assaulting the man’s car. They also mentioned the two charges that have been filed to the Charlotte Police about Flair's actions and Flair has been issued two warrants. The first one for assault on property and the other for assault on another person. "

"NOVEMBER 29--Wrestler Ric "The Nature Boy" Flair surrendered this morning to North Carolina cops on misdemeanor charges that he throttled a fellow motorist during a road rage incident last week on Interstate 485. The 56-year-old Flair (real name: Richard Fliehr) was booked this morning at the Mecklenburg County Sheriff's Office, where the below mug shot was snapped. Flair, who allegedly grabbed a Charlotte man by the throat and kicked (and dented) the guy's Toyota during the November 23 confrontation, posted $1000 bond and was released. Flair is facing simple assault and battery and injury to personal property charges. "

" Yet Even More Bad News For Ric Flair

Poor Ric Flair. This is such a bad time in his life. Check out this story from Charlotte.com:

Source: http://www.charlotte.com/mld/charlotte/entertainment/gossip/13307913.htm

Pro wrestler Ric Flair has been pinned by the IRS over back taxes and is fighting a nasty divorce battle with his wife.

Flair, one of Charlotte's best-known celebrities, owed the federal government $1 million in 1997, according to a statement from his accountant. The IRS began garnishing Flair's wrestling salary this year, seizing more than $200,000 so far.

Flair and his wife Elizabeth separated in February after 22 years of marriage. In a divorce filing, she accuses Flair of "cruel behavior" and says he slapped, kicked, choked, threw, bit and spit on her and pulled her hair.

Her complaint, which was filed in May, also accuses Flair of abusing alcohol and steroids, causing him to become "enraged, paranoid, emotionally unbalanced and violent," and says he exposed himself to her friends and committed adultery.

Flair acknowledges in court filings that he had a "tumultuous" marriage, but he denies the abusive behavior and steroid use and says his wife is trying to humiliate him with the allegations.

He accuses her of destructive behavior and says she hit him -- not the other way around.

Flair, whose real name is Richard Fliehr, and his wife did not return calls for comment.

Flair's attorney also wouldn't comment on the allegations, saying the divorce "isn't news" because it was filed months ago.

"We're defending the case, and we're not going to talk about their domestic problems," said Bill Diehl, perhaps Charlotte's best-known lawyer. "She accused him of being a bad boy. He accused her of being a bad girl. That's where we stand."

Flair was in the news earlier this week after being accused of road rage on Interstate 485.

The divorce case file at the Mecklenburg County Courthouse has grown as thick as two phone books, stuffed with financial records, credit card bills and property tax records.

There's also a letter from the judge, ruling that Flair must pay Elizabeth $20,000 a month until the case is settled, based on their previous living expenses.

Judge Jane Harper says the payment includes $2,000 for gifts, which Harper calls "obscenely high although far less than she says she needs," and $200 for religious contributions. "Whether she makes this or not," the judge writes, "I've included it to encourage someone in this family to share a tiny smidgen of their huge wealth with someone besides themselves."

The judge also says she'll consider freezing the couple's assets until the case is decided, because Flair used money from a retirement account "to get $92,000 for his girlfriend's finger."

Flair, in response to his wife's complaint, denies her charges and says it was her abusive conduct that led him to leave her. His response and counterclaim, filed in August, calls her "emotionally unstable, verbally abusive and physically violent."

He also accuses his wife of hitting him in an effort to provoke him into retaliating physically.

Charlotte-Mecklenburg Police records going back to 2002 don't show any calls for service relating to domestic abuse at the Fliehrs' south Charlotte home.

Elizabeth says she once called police to report abuse and Flair pulled open a wrestling scar to appear bloody, so it would look like she attacked him.

Flair says he and his wife have been separated three times and that she condoned and encouraged his "marital misconduct."

The wrestler says he is involved with a woman who he has taken on trips and bought gifts, but he invokes his right to privacy on the question of whether the relationship is sexual.

Much of the case file deals with the family's financial situation and wrangling over money.

Flair says he and his wife "lived well beyond our means" and racked up substantial debt to the IRS and other creditors.

In an affidavit asking for support payments, Elizabeth estimates that she spends $65,000 a year on clothing and $50,000 on vacations. She said she spent $50,000 on Christmas gifts in 2004. The family also owns a boat, a country club membership, and a house in the Piper Glen neighborhood with an estimated $1.2 million tax value, according to court records.

Flair, known for his "Nature Boy" persona and piercing "Wooooo," said he's due to make $500,000 from his WWE contract this year. But he hasn't received a paycheck since April, he says, due to the IRS' actions.

Flair also says he's concerned about his future in wrestling.

"I am 56 years old," the star writes, "working in a business that demands physical fitness and is dominated by performers much younger than I.

"There is no guarantee that even next year, I will be employed."

Road Rage Charges

Ric Flair was charged last week with injury to personal property and simple assault and battery, both misdemeanors, after a 29-year-old driver filed a complaint against him.

The driver says Flair got out of his vehicle on Interstate 485 in Charlotte on Nov. 23, grabbed him by the neck and then kicked the door of his Toyota 4Runner, leaving a large dent.

Flair told the Observer on Monday that it didn't happen that way. "I didn't do anything wrong at all," Flair said in a phone interview. "As usual, I will be exonerated."

Flair surrendered to authorities at the Mecklenburg County jail Tuesday morning and was released on $1,000 bond less than two hours later. "

In ultima vreme tot mai multe stiri despre wrestleri in viata de zi cu zi ,implicati in diferite actiuni ilegale :

"Former WCW Wrestler Lex Luger is current being held in Hennepin Country Jail in Minneapolis.

With a court appearance scheduled on the 22nd on two felonies, a drug charge from the state of Georgia and a fugitive from justice charge stemming from that original charge, Lawrence Pfohl is being held without bail.
Luger and Marcus Bagwell were on their way to a wrestling date in Winnipeg on Tuesday. They were then taken off an airplane due to a disturbance and were allowed to get on a later flight.
Both wrestlers, along with Scott Rechsteiner, were detained for a long period (between 90 minutes and three hours) at the border before Bagwell and Rechsteiner were allowed to enter the country. Pfohl was sent back, likely because they discovered the outstanding warrant, and arrested after he arrived in Minneapolis.
Since Pfhol's departure from WCW he has faced one legal problem after another. Between DUI arrests, steroids, and Growth Hormone found at his home when Elizabeth Hulette passed away, and he spent a lengthy period of time in jail in Atlanta due to nonpayment of child support."

Steve Austin - Trebuie sa mai spun? Alcoolic ... Cred ca fraza adresata lui Goldberg "I fear no Spear like I fear no beer!" vorbeste de la sine ...


Am auzit una si mai tare. In ring cu Vinnie Mac vorbind despre un Six Pack Challenge cu un empty spot. Si ii zice Austin : "You can believe me, nobody here knows a Six Pack better than Steve Austin" :)))))

andre the giant a venit beut la meciul cu maeda and started to shoot.maeda s-a enervat si i-a inrosit piciorul cu low-kick-uri.intr-un final a venit inoki si a oprit meciul ca stricau seara.
la iesire maeda a dat un picior in gardurile de protectie de le-a desprins.

ultimate warrior si-a schimbat legal numele in warrior
shawn michaels si-a luat bataie intr-o parcare de la niste marines
davey boy smith l-a batut pe unu cu capu de perete pana a lesinat pentru ca se dadea la nevasta-sa

povestea spune ca paul ellering i-a "cules" pe road warriors cand bateau niste golani intr-un gang(ei doar se aparau).

road warrior hawk povestea intr-un interviu ca in perioada de dinaintea screwjob-ului de la montreal vince era baiat bun si chiar la o bere cu baietii animal l-a luat pe umeri iar hawn a facut doom's day device :)

ken shamrock e preten bun cu nasty boys.
varianta lor si a celor de la hotel..l-o batut de i-o sarit capacele si apoi l-au aruncat prin geamul camerei (ca o aterizat in piscina sau in balcon nu stiu),asta fiind inainte de zilele lui de glorie in ufc.
varianta lui ken e ca nasty boiz s-o luat de un preten cu care statea ken la taclale.iar ala era micut tare pe langa ei.seara ken s-a dus la ei in camera sa discute si unu dintre ei a dat un neve apoi "they put the boots on him".
dupa ce ken s-o batut in ufc si a devenit faimos se intalnesc la aeroport ken cu nastys (impreuna cu ken era billy gun..parca) .brian si gerry s-o dat cotit iar ken cand i-a vazut o scos spume..s-a dus catre unu dintre ei,erau la coada la bilete, l-a luat de umar si i-a zis "i-m gonna kill u"..ala cam morcovit da cu tupeu de snob a intors spatele si a zis "if u hit me is a fellony"..or smth like that.brian a intervenit si cam atat a ramas.

dave meltzer la radio discuta despre incidentul dintre macho man si road warrior hawk cand veni vorba si despre un incident intre hawk si eddie guerrero.dave spunea ca nu-si imagineaza cine ar putea stalci in bataie un om asa dragut si modest ca eddie(incidentul s-a petrecut in japonia)

[Big Sexy]

asta e zona de barfe dar imi plac la nebunie ...

[Heath Scumm]

^^ Avem nevoie si de surse ... nu ca nu te credem pe cuvant ... doar ca eu nu te cred pe cuvant :D

Nu pot sa-mi imaginez ca vreun pro-wrestler (oricat de mare ar fi el sau oricat de multi prieteni ar avea) l-ar putea bate pe bune pe Ken Shamrock ... poate doar New Jack :rolleyes: ... chiar si inainte de UFC, tipul avea experienta in diverse forme de arte martiale, mat wrestling si alte forme de lupta!

[thunder_liger]

nici io nu le cred pe toate...si probabil nici cei care le-au scris.
vreti surse ..mergeti la armpitwrestling.com ,le-au adunat baietii cam pe toate acolo.cautati backstage fights.

Steve "Dr. Death" Williams (superstar in japonia) a luat KO in 20 sec luptand in K1 impotriva lui Alexei Ignashov.

"Dr. D " David Schultz e celebru pt ca i-a dat capac la un reporter cand acesta a spus "i think wrestling is fake".
" In 1984, while filming a segment on wrestling, Stossel told wrestler Dr. D (Dave Schultz) he thought wrestling was fake. Schultz attacked Stossel, yelling "You think it's fake?" Stossel sued and won a $425,000 settlement. Schultz was fired by the WWF, but maintains he was ordered to attack Stossel. " citat din biografia lui Stossel de pe wikipedia.
Schultz e renumit si pt ca a fost bounty hounter (ca New Jack) si pentru ca nu aparea la meciurile cu Hogan :)

@ HitScum
si akira maeda(background serios in karate full contact) si-a luat un neve si i s-au taiat genunchii.e o poza pe quebrada cand maeda e pe jos cu arcada sparta (sau doar taiat) iar maurice smith incearca sa-l ridice.

[Big Sexy]

In ultima vreme am inceput si eu sa citesc can can-uri insa e asa de usor sa inventezi o stire si sa o bagi pe un canal de presa serios incat ma intreb ce naiba mai e real si ce nu. Mai ales in wrestling unde au facut varzaaaaaa biografia lui Kane iar interviurile din revista dedicata lui la lansarea filmului See No Evil sunt o bataie de joc la adresa inteligentei cititorilor. Acolo vin cu tot felul de stiri aberante cum ca batea actorii si alte tampenii. Tehnic am aruncat 35 lei pe geam pentru minciuni neinspirate ce intentioneaza sa promoveze filmul.

superb..cel mai mare salariu THE GAME TRIPLE H..SUPERB

[cutuma]

De remarcat ca un luptator cu mare potential cum este Ken Kennedy este platit mai prost decat Mirel Radoi la Steaua.

[LifeHeartLHW]

vedeti ca astia iau banii si isi risca cariera si viata(vorbesc de Owen Hart). Merita sa castige banii astia. Fotbalisti dau cu piciorul intr-o minge(cateodata nici nu prea stiu) si de ce iau atatia banii?? Si mai ales wrestling-ul se stie ca este fake, dar si fotbalul.... BATAIE DE JOC

Si aici, in Italia, cand a murit Eddie, toate stirile spuneau ca de la droguri dar, dupa ce a fost show-ul de SD! si comentatori au spus ca a fost un atac de inima, toti au tacut.
Nimeni nu se leaga de fotbal asha de mult...

[AxinTe]

Rob Van Dam: $220,000
Victoria: $275,000

incredibil...

[Darius]

De remarcat ca un luptator cu mare potential cum este Ken Kennedy este platit mai prost decat Mirel Radoi la Steaua.

Cred ca si Booker T este platit mai prost decat Mirel Radoi, daca salariul de 400.000 al stelistului este, intr-adevar, real.

As fi curios sa vad si salariile luptatorilor din TNA. M-ar interesa, in primul rand, sa fac o comparatie intre Jeff Jarrett si Senshi. Ah, am uitat ca Jarrett ia, de fapt, dividende, nu salariu :D.

[cutuma]

Asa e ... am uitat ca ii creste salariul anual. Ideea e ca o buna parte a fotbalistilor Stelei incaseaza cu tot cu prime MULT peste marea majoritatea a superstarurilor WWE. Si asta tinand cont ca salariile in Romania sunt MULT mai mici decat ce e in occident. Ce ar trebui sa remarcam din asta? Ca wrestlingul nu e chiar atat de popular si nu atrage atat de multi bani pe cat am vrea sa credem.

- Kane: $ 851,000:nu inteleg de ce wwe plateste asa de putin pe kane..
dupa mine el merita mult mai mult decat cena~!!!!

[LifeHeartLHW]

eu cred ca acum este pe la sfarsitul carierei de wrestler. Si vad ca nu prea apare pe la Raw.
Si Cena ia prea mult mai bine facea totul pe gratis. Sa ia bataie pe gratis:D

cred ca aici ai pus punctul pe I. Toti credem la fel. Oricum ai facut o treaba excelenta cu postarea acestor sume!!! Daca gasesti si TNA :ok:

[LifeHeartLHW]

le.am gasit pe un alt forum dar si acolo au cerut si alea din TNA dar nu le-au postat. poate in viitor....

[Dragon-sin]

Ce ar trebui sa remarcam din asta? Ca wrestlingul nu e chiar atat de popular si nu atrage atat de multi bani pe cat am vrea sa credem.

Nu neaparat.In Beyond The Mat zice ca WWF(E) e mai mare ca Rangers ,Knicks si inca o echipa la loc! Ar trebui sa vedem cat castiga Vince,pt ca WWE e o companie care face multi bani.

Faza asta ma face sa ma gandesc la o chestie pe care am citit'o sau am auzit'o in ceva shoot interview,nu mai tin minte unde.Shane McMahon a zis asta (cea mai importanta lectie in wrestling,daca nu esti wrestler ci promoter ) : ''dont ever let your wrestler know how big he is ,so that you can make as much money out of him as you can without him knowing that.''(ceva de genu) .

Nick Gage face 40 $ in CZW pe show si el isi distruge corpul in deathmatches....chestia asta te face sa te gandesti la motivul pt care uni fac deathmatches.

nu cred ca poti compara Basketul cu Wrestlingul dpdv al popularitatii / banilor. Salariile din Basket sunt uriase si din cate stiu si in fotbalul american se castiga bine, ca de altfel si din baseball. Probabil singurul sport de anvergura unde se castiga mai prost ca in wrestling e NHL-ul. Dar nici acolo nu sunt sigur.

[Dragon-sin]

Asa e dar eu am vb despre cat de mare e compania WWE ,de cat produce ,nu de cat de mult se castiga.

[Big Sexy]

venituri de aproximativ 950 mil. dolari. NU stiu profitul dar il poti vedea aici:

http://corporate.wwe.com/

[LifeHeartLHW]

Daca aveti niste banii puteti sa cheluiti sa cumparati actiuni de WWE:
10 milioane de actiuni cu pretul de $17.
Asta insemna ca aveti un pic de WWE.

As fi curios sa vad si salariile luptatorilor din TNA.
Din cate stiu eu f putini luptatori au writen contract cu TNA (adica salariu), iar majoritatea au open contract (adica sunt platiti la fiecare aparitie).
Cel putin asa a fost in primii ani cand profitul era incert si, desi TNA-ul platea mai mult pe luptatorii lunar decat daca ar fi avut un contract scris, avea posibilitea sa-i concedieze oricand (a se vedea Austin Aries si Rodrick Strong).

[HAYABUSA]

Foarte bun acest topic :)
Este un domeniu care si pe mine ma intereseaza cel mai mult probleme , familie ,interviuri , documentare biografice
Aici un interviu cu Kane care imi place f mult :http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mdeZu4_Shv4

Source: The Pro Wrestling Torch Newsletter

Rob Van Dam is said to be in the "dog house" with WWE at the moment for not going to Iraq for the "Tribute to the Troops" event this year. The story making the rounds is that WWE is more upset with RVD about the way he turned down the invite then simply not going. According to reports, Vince McMahon made it very clear that he considers going to Iraq "optional", but that if you don't accept an invite, you are expected to explain what a great opportunity it would be and then thank Vince for the offer and "gently" turn him down for whatever reason. As you can guess, Rob Van Dam was said to be very blunt about his answer and didn't show any appreciation for the offer. In turn, McMahon reportedly resented that and saw it as attitude. According to many sources, RVD is well known for never giving in to the "ass kissing" in WWE, a courtesy many extend towards Vince and Stephanie McMahon and when they don't get it, they see it as attitude.

:ok: Imi place ca RVD spune ce gandeste, fara retineri. Si sincer, nici eu nu m-as duce in Irak, e cam periculos, chiar daca mi s-ar promite ca securitatea va avea grija de mine
