The Bro Remembers The Fairgrounds.....

Wildcat Chris Harris….

I enjoyed Chris Harris a lot watching him wrestle at the Fairgrounds Sports Arena through the years…. He was a subject of much ridicule on several blogs from my old site, but he always took them with a grain of salt and enjoyed making fun of himself as much as I enjoyed making fun of him, which is more than I can say for his ex tag team partner, James Storm, who would gladly choke the last breaths out of me as he banged some underage ringrat.....

AT THE SAME TIME….

But, I digress, this is about The Wildcat….. The Babyface of the Mecca

The man who was a trendsetter on the fashion scene, wearing his bedazzled ‘ Wildcat ‘ ring jacket to the ring and his Bret Hart inspired oakley sunglasses…. I often wondered how someone could be THAT over with the local crowd, then I started thinking ‘ all these people ( and I use that term very loosely ) crawl out from the sewers around the fairgrounds for two things ‘….

- Flea Markets – where bedazzled apparel is a hot seller along with 90’s-era Oakley glasses and jean jackets and fanny packs – all Chris Harris fashion favorites

- Wrestling – The sport Chris Harris engages in

As much as I rag on the guy, nothing could prepare me for the total hilarity that eventually became his WWE career…. Chris Harris went from a svelte, muscular, Greek God like wrestling body to the appearance of Chris Harris going on a Bert Prentice/Faron Foxx inspired diet and accidentally sitting on a balloon inflator tank….. The dude BLEW UP!!!!!

That and He was quite horrible…. His name was Braden Walker in the WWE, you might remember him, if you were part of his immediate family, otherwise his stay there was about as long as the time it takes you to say ‘ Braden Walker ‘ …. Actually, it was shorter than that….

Like James Storm’s peen size short….. Scary, huh?!

Wildcat was a good dude though…. He always gave it his all in the ring and seemed to genuinely love his fans…. I say that, because trust me, the last thing I’d want to do is hug on that crowd of mud people that come out to watch wrestling…. So, it takes a genuine type guy to risk, probably over 5,678 communicable diseases, to get that close to their fans…..

The man loved his fanny packs…. He was probably the Southeast’s finest purveyor of them… Like a game hunter that goes out with his rucksack collecting mink skins, I could see Harris scouring the flea market table searching for rare and hard to find fanny packs….

“ do you have the leather albino porcupine fanny pack?! “

“ dude…… “

“ ahhhh forget it! “

He’s one of those fanny pack wearers who thinks it’s tacky and in bad taste to not match your clothing to your fanny packs…. You know, as if wearing the human version of a kangaroo pouch wasn’t TACKY and TRASHY enough as it is….

What did he keep in that fanny pack?! Who knows…. I have dibs on the matchbook sized booklet that denotes his WWE career…. But hey, at least he made it to the show, however fleeting that moment was…. I always thought he was the more talented out of He and Storm, so it kind of upsets me that Storm is still around and Harris is out arm wrestling geriatrics at retirement homes for bedazzled hats and coats and fanny packs…..

He wasn’t the greatest on the mic, but his look and in-ring ability I thought were way better than Storm’s….

If you were ever abducted by Space Aliens and they asked you for a picture to encapsulate what Nashville fairgrounds wrestling was all about…. It would be the one at the top of this article….

Joel Gertner – Yes… THAT Joel Gertner…..

As some of you know, and the others should, I used to run a website covering TNA…. I had his official site linked on my blog with a little ‘ Gertner-Like ‘ promo that I had written myself…. He had contacted me to just talk about TNA and the like….

One thing led to another and he asked for a ride to the Madison wrestling show ran by Tony Falk….

So, being the true Mark that I was, I gladly accepted… I mean, here was the man who used to make me laugh uncontrollably with his promos in ECW and I was going to have alone time with him to talk wrestling?! I know, I know, you’re all like “ talk wrestling is code for sucking dick “ ….. That was a very gay sounding sentence to write in hindsight….. Moving along, nothing to see here!!!!

GAS MONEY BE DAMNED!!!!! I was gonna give one of my ECW heroes a ride!!!!

I picked him up and he seemed cool, we talked ECW, he was impressed with my gertner like promos I wrote and then that’s when it all came crashing down for me….

I had heard before that Heyman had wrote all his promos, but never believed it, until it came from his own lips….

I was stunned….

It reminded me of the time I met one of the American Gladiators at the mall, and he was a total dickhead …. I was so excited to meet them. I had a nervous stomach standing in line and I get up there to get his autograph and he sighs and rolls his eyes when I tell him about my love for the show….. I just shrugged it off…. He asked my name, I gave it to him and then I get my glossy pic back that he just autographed with ‘ Thanks, Mark ‘ ….. First off, my name is ‘ Matt ‘ …. Secondly, who the fuck signs anything to anyone with ‘ Thanks, Mark ‘ ….. It’s like he was writing a letter for me on his glossy pic under a fake name that somewhat resembled my own…..

That’s what the news of Gertner not doing his own promos did to me… A gut punch….. To his credit, he said he wrote some that were his, but overall, it was all Heyman….

But, he was a nice guy, and he didn’t seem like he was like other wrestlers * ahem ahem * shark boy * ahem ahem * who made certain people drive them around to find hookers …. So, that was good….

It was also that night that a certain local independent valet that shall remain nameless asked me to go to Sir Pizza with her and when I told her I was already full from a previous meal, she informed me that – “ I never get enough meat in my mouth “ and then made a suggestive movement with her hand…..

All that did was make me imagine her eating a big pepperoni log from a Christmas Platter from Pepperidge Farms and then her breath smelling like the inside of a Pizza Hut…. It wasn’t very sexy ……

But, I digress…. I do love me some Sir Pizza, but not when it’s compared to the male genitalia

The Bro Remembers The Fairgrounds Sports Arena : Vol 2

This is Volume 2 of my look back at the people that I remember seeing and who left an impression on me, from all the wrestling shows I've attended over the years at the Fairgrounds Sports Arena - A.K.A. - The Mecca....

I'll have more volumes as time goes on....

The Victory Twins…..

Has there ever been a tag team so inappropriately named than these two goons?!

Every time they were announced and came to the ring, I thought to myself…. “ Victory?! Have these guys even looked in a mirror, let alone won a match?! “ ….

Basically, if you had ever wondered what a Ghoulie ( 80’s horror movie fans will know what I’m talking about here ) and a Lou Ferrigno lovechild twin set looked like, who was born in a meth trailer explosion..... you had the Victory Twins

I laughed to myself everytime they came through the curtain…. If, you were a newbie to the local scene…. You’d expect two hulking behemoths to come through the curtains, with a name like “ Victory Twins “, blaring music from Slayer or Ratt…. Instead you get Two Scrunched Face oompa’s in some wrestling tights that looked like they were hand me downs from the 1960’s, with the most generic music you’d ever hear….. I thought they should come through the curtain and their entrance music should just be that theme song that plays after you lose a game on the Price is Right….

They were pretty horrible…. And that was my nice compliment. However, as horrible they were, they were part of the fairgrounds wrestling card for awhile…. So, they’ve been stuck in my nostalgia portion of my brain for awhile…. Granted, for reasons not so great, but they’ve been stuck there for awhile….

I thought they should have really had them dress up as Oompa Loompa’s and come out to the Oompa song and have Bert Prentice dressed like Willy Wonka, as their manager…. That would have AT LEAST been entertaining, as opposed to how un-entertaining they actually were…. But, again…. They were usually part of my weekend sojourn to the arena…..

Bart Sawyer….

I honestly used to watch ‘ To Catch A Predator ‘ with Chris Hansen on Dateline NBC and would always look for Bart Sawyer to show up at a house, wait for the underage girl, who was doing ‘ laundry ‘, as he tried to position himself on a seat at a table as seductively looking as possible, sucking on a lollipop… Then Chris Hansen appears and goes “ so, what are you doing here?! “ …. And Bart Sawyer would look stunned then start mumbling about “ well, ummm, you see…. I’m a wrestler and there was supposed to be a show and ummmmmm this was the address they gave me to show up at and ummmmm… “ As Chris just looks at him sadly and shakes his head “ are you ‘ bartlicks69xo69 ‘ on instant messenger? Because, we have a transcript with your picture and this name…. “ ….

Now, before I sully the good reputation of an independent wrestler * cough cough *, let me state the fact, I have no idea if the dude was a pederast

But, I would never be surprised if he was found to be…..

I used to go down to the Arena with my cousin…. I remember this one time vividly…. Sawyer comes out, walking all weirdly to the ring… I had bets he was drunk….

And this was during the time where he was supposed to be playing ( I guess? ) a sexyboy/Shawn Michaels type of character?! Anyways, he goes around and tries to sit next to ladies, and I use the 'ladies' term very loosely, sitting in the seats….. He gets up and sits down next to this girl who was wearing braces and looked to be about 12 years old…. He tilts his head and gives her a look like ' you know you want to eff me ' and then starts to lick and suck on his lollipop like some internet tramp in pigatils and a schoolgirl outfit trying to lure me to view some dubious site of ill repute on the interwebs….

So, while most people think of a pederast as a guy sitting in a conversion van with an Aztec warrior painted on the side holding a famished princess in his arms as they overlook a burning adobe village, while wearing a fishnet tank top, buster brown hat and cutoff jean shorts…. I’ve always thought of a pederast as Bart Sawyer…..

He was a decent wrestler who if you ever wondered what Rowdy Roddy Piper would have been like if he never made it to the bigs and had to wrestle in the South on the Indy scene his entire life, you had Bart Sawyer….

I’m pretty sure he was one of the first wrestlers I ever noticed who didn’t wear cups prominently…. Now, some of you will be like “ told you homey, Bro’s gay as shit!!! “ …. But, I’ll counter that with my ‘ Bro’s Book of Hot Squeash He Has Pounded ‘, for proof of my straightness and then I’d also point you to the fact that when a guy comes walking out, sucking on a lollipop, walking with his pelvis arriving first to any given spot and a turtlehead popping out to say hello to the world, you can’t help BUT notice this stuff…. Plus, he wore yellow man-panties that were three sizes too small…. So tight in fact, that you could literally count the veins in his peen from a distance of 45 feet….

Bart Durham ……

While we’re on the topics of creepy guys named ‘ Bart ‘ ….. Along comes Bart Durham who is an ambulance chasing lawyer based in Nashville who for a time dabbled in managing wrestling….

He’s a creepy old man who loves the young girls…. And I have a theory about how he got into wrestling…. Wanna hear it, Here it go….

Remember that urban legend about ChickenHat getting hit by a City Bus on his way to wrestling and then suing the Bus Company, and in the process becoming a millionaire, who still lives in a ramshackle shanty with his mother?! Ok…

So, I think Charles was represented by Bart Durham, who then had to research local wrestling…. Saw some hot young girls who were involved with it and was like

“ JACKPOTTTTTTTTTT! A whole new crop of girls to exploit and take advantage offfffff!!!!!“ as he thrusts his fist into the air and takes a deep, long breath of the money under his nose, held their by his other hand ……

And Bert, never the one to turn down money from anyone, decided to let this guy pay his way into wrestling…..

He’s as creepy as they come and wasn’t very meaningful on the local scene… But, I just remember this because HE is so closely associated with Nashville pop culture and what better way to bridge the gap all the way around than for wrestling, a Nashville staple of weird entertainment for years, get involved with this guy.....

I will say this for Bart Durham…. He’s basically the Nashville version of Dick Clark…. The dude has had the same face for 20 years…. It’s never changed…. And, that’s NOT a good thing either…. They should sell Bart Durham Halloween masks in Nashville only… They’d be a hit…. You could even include a button, that when pressed says, in a southern drawl…. “ Candy is my right…. And I…. Demand It! “ …… A takeoff of Bart’s signature closing line in his local commercials…. “ Justice is your right…. And We…. Demand It….. “ And I felt like demanding justice for paying to see this guy run around the wrestling ring as a manager….

As an aside to this story on Bart Durham, I remember one show he was on here in Nashville and I was just out of high school and dabbling in independent filmmaking…. I was with a group of kids who had cable access television rights as we took a class there on broadcasting…..

I went to a show with Bart Durham on the card and carried my camcorder into the Arena expecting to do a little movie about independent wrestling in Nashville, then Bert saw me interviewing some people and came to shut me down….

I remember him putting his big paw on the camera lens

“ You can’t tape here! “ he bellows

“ Why not?! “ I asked indignantly…. You know how college aged kids are, we’re always in the right….

“ I run this place, that’s why “ He says matter of factly

“ You run the whole fairgrounds? News to me “ I say

“ Look, you can’t film here, bottom line “ he says

“ There’s nothing on these tickets that make that statement “ I point out

“ There’s also nothing on there that says I can’t kick you out for being a problem either! “ He counters

“ Get me Bart Durham, I know he’s here, and I demand justice! “ I say smart-assily

“ And if you keep filming, I’m gonna demand you get your ass out of here! “ he says sweaty and angry

“ You’re an angry man, why?! “ I say with a sarcastic smile as I pack my bag up and resign myself to defeat

“ You would be too if you dealt with the crooks I dealt with on a daily basis “ he says as he walks away briskly….

I thought that was really telling….. Now….

I look back on that conversation and laugh….

I was in the wrong, I know this…. NOW….. But, for Bert to say something about ANYONE else being a crook, is hilarious to me…. And I know Bart was working with him at this time, so I’m assuming he was referring to him, even though he probably wasn’t…. But, I’m gonna jump on the assumption train and pull out of the gates with it….

The most hilarious thing about all of this….. I was recapping the lens on the camcorder and I looked down and saw a huge puddle of moisture on it, which came from Bert’s sweaty palms when he was trying to cover up my filming…. Why was he always so sweaty for?! Always a mystery….

Lollipop……

Remember her?! Ah yes…. The TNA Cage Dancer who flashed her tits on a PPV…..

Anddddddddddddd who was the first person to give this girl an interview in Nashville?! Yep…. Me….. On my old site…. I knew this girl was gonna be a star….. Why?! I knows talent when I sees it!!!!

Ummmmmm, just google image search her, that’s why…..

She was, I say this in all honesty and humbleness….. THE HOTTEST FUCKING GIRL IN INDEPENDENT NASHVILLE WRESTLING HISTORY…..

My penis miss her…. I mean, ummmm, I miss seeing her at the shows…. IN FACT, I miss seeing anyone remotely attractive on the shows nowadays…. Where did all the hot girls go?!

I know, I know, she couldn’t wrestle or whatever, but when did that ever matter in Girl’s wrestling?! If you’re hot, which she was and Charismatic, which she grew to be, you can definitely hold your own in the wrestling world as a female….

I feel like there’s a story somewhere about how someone in wrestling ruined her and that’s why she is no longer in it….

I mean we all know the story about how Borash let it slip that LowKi stuck it in her butt and that had to be embarassing....

But, was that it?! Was that the reason she left wrestling?! Because there’s a hundred pretty boys who have wrestled on the Nashville independent scene who are like “ so what?! at least it was straight sex, we had to let Bert do that to get a push! “ …..

She was a Nashville Wrestling landmark, for better or worse – for my penis it was better, and for my….. wellll, who am I kidding, it was for the better all the way around when you’re an unabashed pervert like me - , and I for one beg for her to make her glorious and triumphant return…. If not her, at least give me someone to lust after…. Wrestling has always been about hot squeash parading around the ring wearing little to nothing, as the mongoloid perverts in the crowd fight back the urge to rush them and sexually assault them….. Have we forgotten our history?! Come on….. Bring back da girls!!!!!

' What If '

WHAT IF....Steve Austin hadn't been fired from WCW?
by Bauer Mc

Steve Austin. His name conjures up a multitude of memories for almost all wrestling fans. The first time he hit Mr. McMahon with the Stone Cold Stunner. Throwing The Rock off a bridge. Stunning both Brock Lesner and Bill Goldberg at WrestleMania XX, winning the World Wrestling Federation Heavyweight Title from Shawn Micheals at WrestleMania XIV and perhaps above them all the image of a bloody Steve Austin screaming in pain while in the Sharpshooter being applied by Bret Hart in their now legendary match at WrestleMania XIII. But those moments almost didn't happen as there almost wasn't a Stone Cold Steve Austin.

He started in World Class Championship Wrestling(WCCW) as a student of Chris Adams. He first wrestled under the name Steve Williams. I can remember EXACTLY where I was when he made his TV debut. I was in Murfreesboro, TN shopping with my grandparents on a Saturday afternoon. I would usually find the tv section of whatever store I was in and see if I could find wrestling. Scary that now I can watch it on a phone I can carry in my pocket. Anyways. We were at Big Lots. I was watching the weekly WCCW program on a local station when they said "...coming up next Steve Williams". As a true wrestling fan I knew that meant only one thing....Steve DR. DEATH Williams. So when they got back from commercial out comes this long blond haired muscular guy calling himself Steve Williams. THAT'S NOT DR. DEATH I remember saying out loud. Little remembered fact(thanks Wikipedia) Austin(replacing Terry Gordy) teamed with Dr. Death at Halloween Havoc in a match to unify the WCW and the National Wrestling Alliance(NWA) World Tag Team Titles. The fought Dustin Rhodes and Barry Windom to a 30 minute time limit draw. But I watched anyway, thinking I would continue to be disappointed. Instead I could see there was a lot of promise and potential and made a note to myself that this guy could turn out to be something one day. Soon after he also started showing up as Steve Austin on Continental Wrestling Association action from Memphis. I became a big fan of his work quickly and was in hopes he would someday make his way to World Championship Wrestling(WCW). I wouldn't have to wait long as he would sign with WCW in 1990.

Austin would work for WCW from 1990 to 1995. He captured gold fairly quickly by winning the WCW World Television Title from "Beautiful" Bobby Eaton. He would feud with the likes of Eaton, Barry Windom and Ricky "the Dragon" Steamboat before moving on to reluctantly moving on to tag team action.

Austin would next form the Hollywood Blonds tag team with "Flyin" Brian Pillman. They became a hit quickly and won the WCW World Tag Team Titles in March of 1993 from Steamboat and Shane Douglas. They would have many tremendous matches with Steamboat and Douglas but what really put them on the map as a team was a feud with Ric Flair and Arn Anderson. Pillman would get injured and Austin along with substitute tag partner Steve(now William) Regal would lose the tag titles to Anderson and Paul Roma(worst Horseman ever?). Against the pairings wishes they would start a feud upon the return of Pillman. With this now out of the way Austin would make his way back into the WCW singles title scene and win eventually win the WCW United States Heavyweight Title from Dustin Rhodes in 2 straight falls at Starrcade 1993. From here it was to eventually lead to time as WCW World Heavyweight Champion. Then fate stepped in. Just around 2 years from this moment Austin would be making his debut in the World Wrestling Federation(WWF).

Austin held the WCW US Title for almost a year, feuding with many over that time, but his biggest feud over the US Title was with Ricky Steamboat. In August of 1994 Steamboat would win the title and this was the start of the downward spin that lead to Austin being fired. He was suffer several injures during the next year. Those injuries, along with Eric Bischoff thinking Austin wouldn't be marketable, lead to Easy E calling Austin and firing him. This was not a popular move amongst those that had worked with Austin. There was at one time plans in the works for Austin to work a feud with then WCW World Heavyweight Champion Ric Flair then some guy named Hulk Hogan joined WCW and that was scrapped. So he went from one of the top young names in the industry to a multiple time champion that was going to feud with Flair and perhaps win the WCW World Title to FIRED. He would soon show up in Extreme Championship Wrestling and use the emotions from his firing to start the birth of what would become the persona of Stone Cold Steve Austin. By mid 1996 Austin was the winner of the King of the Ring and on his way to becoming the biggest name in the history of the industry.

So.....WHAT IF STEVE AUSTIN HADN'T BEEN FIRED BY WCW?

Would he have eventually gotten that singles feud with Flair or perhaps someone else for the WCW World Title?
Would he have been stuck on the mid-card level for several years in then still eventually let go or fired?
Would he have in someway been involved in the new World Order(nWo) storyline?
Would he have been inspired to create the persona of Stone Cold Steve Austin or even have the need to do so?
Would he have stayed in WCW long enough that the if the rest of history stayed as is that the WWF would not only lose the Monday Night Wars but go out of business instead of WCW?
Would he have become the universally known household name that he is today?
Would the Rock, Triple H, Mick Foley and many of those that feuded with Stone Cold become as big a deal as they did without the interaction with him and would they even be major players in the industry?

I say the feud with Flair would have happaned but not as a main event, World Title feud. I would like to think he would have gotten a feud with Hogan for the WCW World Title but history tells us he wouldn't have. I think he would have played some role in the nWo angle but not as a main player in it. I would also say that Uncle Eric would have eventually seen enough in him to not let him go to the WWF but I don't have much faith he would have held.

Easily the biggest impact on history would be that WCW, not the WWE, would have won the Monday Night Wars and that the WWE would now be out of business. Yes, you could say WWE would have eventually figured it all out and swung business back their way. Or perhaps you could say WCW would still have found a way to lose. But I say that without Austin there to feud with Shawn Micheals there would have been no Mike Tyson in the WWF and involved in the main event of Mania XIV. There would have been no one to takes Austins place in the feud with McMahon and there may not have even been a feud by anybody with McMahon. And WWE would have lost the war. Who knows, perhaps both would be out of business right now and TNA would be your only option(God that's a scary thought). I for one look back at this and say that I am very glad things went the way they did for Austin. I wish that WCW was still around and that wrestling was as big a deal as it was during the Monday Night Wars but Austin didn't kill WCW, it was moves like letting guys like Austin go that helped kill WCW and had they not then there are a lot of great wrestling memories that wouldn't have taken place.

That's all for the first WHAT IF....

To all those lifelong wrestling fans out there this is BauerMc saying as long as there is both a future and a past there will always be a what if moment out there, and I'm just the guy to talk about.
SO LONG EVERYBODY!

The Bro Remembers The Fairgrounds

Nostalgia hits and I’m suddenly realizing that The Fairgrounds Sports Arena will soon be torn down and all the history of wrestlings yesteryear will be gone with it…. My grandfather and cousin and uncle all performed under that roof and it makes me a little sad realizing that sooner or later, probably sooner, the place will no longer exist….

So, with that I’m mind…. I’m putting together a list of some of MY favorite performers that I’ve seen at the Fairgrounds Sports Arena…. Keep in mind… This is my list…. So, if you don’t like it, there’s probably a bowl full of dicks, you can go eat….

With that being said…. Here’s the first installment of

“ The Bro Remembers The Fairgrounds Sports Arena “

Here we go….

1. The New South – The single greatest tag team I’ve ever seen in the Nashville area, on a local level…. Now, I couldn’t tell you if their workrate was exceptional or crappy, I’ve always left that to the internet virgins who have nothing better to do besides masturbate and critique fake wrestling matches with stars.... But, what I can tell you is the fact they were highly entertaining and almost on a weekly basis, would cause riots to break out with the fans…. They were hated and fed off of it…. They were the Nashville/Music City Wrestling version of The Dudley Boys…. I actually weep for those who love heels and never got to see these guys work….Bert Prentice made so much money off of me paying a few extra dollars to get front row seats, just to see mayhem ensue....

2. Athena – One of the rare and very few ‘ good ‘ people in the business… Plus, she was an awesome heel, when she was one…. Not really keen on the whole ‘ face ‘ side, but as a heel, there was probably not a better indy lady around…. Any person that could make Chickenhat a superstar and then have him foaming at the mouth wanting your blood on his hands, is good people…. She could work a crowd with the best of them and was a good performer in the ring as well…. It’s too bad she wasn’t really given a fair shake in TNA, because she could work circles around most of the girls on their current roster, let alone the girls they had during her time in the company….

Plus, in my wild youth days, she once saved the ‘ Bro Beef Stick ‘ ( aka my peen ) from being possibly rotted away by some lethal and condemned vagina..... So, all you ladies out there that have experienced the earth shaking feelings and the unequaled emotions of eroticism at the receiving end of the Bro Beef Stick, you have Athena to thank….. All 2 of you…… There’s no telling what would have happened to my immaculate penis had she not intervened…. Although, in my head I had this vision of it just vanishing in a plume of smoke…. SCARY STUFF!!!!!

3. The Colorado Kid Mike Rapada – I know what you’re saying…… “ Bro…. who you kidding?! You fucking hated The Colorado Kid “ ….. And you’re right, but man…. I miss the days when he was the MCW champion…. It’s all just a nostalgic factor with this guy…. A hilarious nostalgic factor…. The guy had no business wearing the title…. From his mullet to his leopard print man-panties , he was a joke….. For some time in the late 90’s I refrained from calling homosexuals, a certain nomenclature and just started referring to them as “ Colorado Kid “ ….

“ Hey look at that guy smoking penis over there, he’s a total “ Colorado Kid “ !!!!

This stuck around with my group of friends for a long time….

Mainly because we were told once that he was only champion because he let Bert suckle upon his Colorado Penis

Eh, to each their own….

I do believe this to be true, because he once beat Sabu at the fairgrounds and let’s face it…. Rapada had no business beating Sabu in ANY match…. EVER…. NEVER EVER…..

4. Dave Batista – What?! Batista wrestled at the Arena?! I know, I know….

But, he did…. Once, that I was privy to, might have been more, but remembered being at a show he was on, I think he was on loan from Cornette and OVW

I remember watching his match and being in awe…. Wondering how come we didn’t have anyone here locally that was THAT good in the ring…. And by ‘ that good ‘ I mean just his look and his power and presence….

I still, to this day, tell people that Batista farted on me and my cousin…. And he did…. On his way to the ring, he walked right past us in the front row…. And as soon as he passed I leaned over to my cousin and was like “ do you smell that?! Did he just fucking fart on us?! “ ….. My cousin looked to his side, no one was sitting beside him…. I looked to my side and Chickenhat was across the arena, so it couldn’t have been his shitty drawers , and the seats next to me were empty, so through deductive reasoning, it was apparent…. Batista fucking farted on me and my cousin….HIGH FIVE!!!!

Nowadays when I fart and the kids smell it, I immediately go “ well someone just did a Batista Bomb! “ … And they roll their eyes and start figuring out what lawyer they are going to use to denounce me as their parent in a court of law….

5. Shane Eden – It’s funny to read that he’s still working in the area… And, from what I’ve gathered, he still is playing the same character….. The attractive boy toy, who looks like he ate a metal sammich and cooks meth on his face…. Which, let’s face it, he was miscast in the late 90’s in that role of an attractive boy toy, let alone 20 years later, when he’s 40…. But the metal sammich eatin’, face meth cookin', is spot on….

I never got why the girls went crazy over the guy…. He wore airbrushed jorts in the ring and did some crazy epileptic seizure dance that was supposed to be erotic, but more resembled a turkey in the throes of deaths clutch…..

BUT! He was the epitome of mid to late 90’s wrestling at the fairgrounds….

I now go to wrestling and look at all the mongoloid babies in attendance and think to myself “ whats the percentage that over 40 percent of these are Shane Eden’s?! “ …. Because, there were a ton of underage ring rats, with obviously no standards back in the day, who would have loved a chance for a trip into Eden…. While I just sat back, shrugged and shook my head going “ but….. he wears airbrushed jorts!!!! “

The more I think about this, the more hilarious it becomes, because I’m pretty sure I’m getting “ airbrushed “ confused for ‘ magic markers ‘ ….. Yep, pretty certain that was the case…..

I’ll be adding another volume to this one… If you have any suggestions of certain wrestlers let me know.

New Blogger - ' What If ' .....

so, I said we'd be debuting a new blog, and here it is.... It's from a person who once worked for TNA, so he knows his stuff.... Unlike, yours truly. This guy will class up the place a bit. Give it a nice feel to contrast with my crass, boorish and sophomoric blogs.... Enjoy his introductory blog and expect a blog once a week....

Here it is....


' What If ' -


Where to start? First off a quick intro. I am a Christian, so I'll try and keep it clean but a bad day at work might come out here in my writing as a way of venting. I am a 32 year old white male. Yes I said white and male, not afraid to say it. I am a conservative American that wants to see a smaller government and people doing more to help themselves and less the government forcing to me help those that refuse to help themselves. I am a married father of two and I love me wife and kids more than words and will do anything to provide and protect them. And I love wrestling!

The first few statements and the last may to some contradict but I have been a wrestling fan for as long as I can recall. I grew up watching Georgia Championship Wrestling on TBS. Ric Flair, Ronnie Garvin, Road Warriors, the Mulkeys, etc. My first wrestling memory is from about 1986. It was a double Russian chain match that pitted the Road Warriors against Ivan Koloff and some other Russian. I think it was Nikita Koloff but I don't recall now, old age getting to me. What I do recall was these four larger than life individuals beating the tar out of each other and loving every minute of it. From there I started to watch on occasion but got even further hooked watching a VHS tape(the thing before DVDs for you kids out there) of WrestleMania III. While Hulk Hogan vs Andre the Giant was the main draw my favorite things on the show was the British Bulldogs in six man tag team action vs the Hart Foundation and the epic Ricky Steamboat vs Randy Savage match for the Intercontinental Title. What finally hooked me for life was the first Clash of Champions on TBS that went head to head with WrestleMania IV. Lex Luger and Barry Windom vs Arn Anderson and Tully Blanchard was great. Midnight Xpress vs Fantastics was well fantastic but it was Ric Flair vs Sting in a 45 minute draw that hooked me for life.

Since that time I have gone to more wrestling shows in my life than I should have. I have watched more wrestling on tv, the internet and by cell phone than most wrestling fans. I have sat front row as world titles changed hands and sat backstage shooting the crap with the boys in the back while history unfolded as we watched on the monitors. I have spoken in person and by phone with almost every major name in the business in my lifetime and can say I have had a blast doing it. I have seen the great side of the business and the very dark nasty side of it as well. I have been told things I could never repeat and I have seen things I could never speak of but in the end I am still a wrestling fan.

Each time I write I will take a look at what is going on in the business today and give my thoughts and opinions on it as well as take looks back into the past. My main focus will be on "WHAT IF..." storylines. Looks back at events in wrestling past and go over what might have went down had things gone differently. I will also offer up from time to time how I think things might go in the future and how to get from current events of what could be in the future. Perhaps even do a what if on my own ideas and compare.

Hopefully by now you are hooked and looking forward to my first actual column which will be coming shortly. Time to hit the lights and head to the next stop. Surving the afternoon school pickup of my oldest child. Have a great one everybody. In the words of Doug from the State.....I'm outta heeeeeeerrrrrrrrrrrrre!

WWE - NIGHT OF CHAMPIONS REVIEW

WWE - NIGHT OF CHAMPIONS REVIEW





Dolph Ziggler Vs. Kofi Kingston - I only pull for Ziggler for one reason…. He looks like the greatest American Actor of all time and Good God Handsome Man – Kurt Russell…. A Young Kurt Russell…. Otherwise he does nothing to appeal to me…. And that outfit he wore last night with the leopard skin vest and the Chippendales neck wrap, was atrocious…. Speaking of atrocious…. Kofi Kingston…. “ oh but the kids love him so let’s give him a push! “ …. Have you seen the shit kids like nowadays?! It’s… well….. shitty shit . I don’t understand his push…. He can put on a good match, but he also can put on 5 star shit ones… his promos are the reason the word “ monotonous “ was created and what’s up with that misshapened chest?!I've often thought that Dolph Ziggler's evil twin should be Chase Stevens, or like Bizzarro Ziggler....

BOOM BOOM! Know what that sound is? The dynamite going off to end his 15 minutes…..

Dolph wins…. Justice reigns…. All is right with the world….

BTW, has anyone else noticed that Vickie has dropped several dress sizes?! People always ask “ what happens to the fat when you lose it?! “ ….. I think Vickie should be asked this, because undoubtedly her answer would simply be “ have you seen Matt Hardy lately…. For real… “

CM Punk Vs. Big Show - What’s the deal with the doo-rag?! What’s the deal with Show being so incredibly lazy that his finishing move is now….. a punch….

“ Show, the internet says you’re slow and lazy and don’t care anymore “

“ I’ll show them!!!! I still have that passion, that burning desire… I’m going to reinvent myself and I’ll start with a finishing move that’s devastating and destructive…. Something earth-shattering…. The….. PUNCH!!!!! And then… to top it off… I’m changing my look…. I’m going for something edgy… something radical and dangerous…. Something that will have people going “ hey, don’t mess with that guy, he's edgy and rough around the edges, a scallywag, a rapscallion!! “.... I’ll wear…… A DOO RAG!!!!!!!“

* cue empty looks from the production room *

Who’s hot dog did Punk replace with a turd?! He’s done something to someone to get relegated to this storyline…. The guy, is arguably, one of the best all around performers on the show and he thrown in poorly developed and shittily ( yes, i just created a word ) thought out storylines with a guy whose best days were when Eric Bischoff’s hair didn’t look like he has seen Jesus…..

Show wins with a knockout punch and I drink another beer to drown the pain…..

Daniel Bryan Vs. The Miz – I made a pact with myself that I wouldn’t be overly critical about this match or really talk about it…. Because…. I love both these guys…. It has pained me to see them feud, because I’m like Natalie Imbruggliattama , ‘ Torn ‘ …..

All you need to know is that Daniel Bryan won…. The Miz now moves into his rightful place in the WWE… The top tier…. He’s worked hard to get where he is at and taken tons of shit..... He should be applauded for the last 6-7 months In the WWE….

And Daniel Bryan can now work on becoming like the Miz…. This was a win/win for the the fans… Epic match, I thought, and both performers really went over….

And yes, this is just shameless, over the top, man love…. But, at least I’m honest about it….

Michelle McCool Vs. Melina - Since women’s wrestling doesn’t really matter. I make predictions on matches, based on hotness….

Since Michelle McCool is incredibly more hotter than Melina… I chose McCool…. Nevermind the fact I’ve probably splooged close to 5,789 times to her image on the net, I was impartial and non-biased….

“ NO HE WASN’T!!!! “ shouts my penis

Hey, guess who won the lottery?!

Undertaker….

How did he score McCool? That’s the biggest win in WWE history….

I look at Michelle McCool and I weep for her vag …..Having to endure deadman penis, has to be horrible....

It’s hard to 'bate to her anymore, because I’ll be all into it and then BAM! all I see is her and him going at it, Undertaker hit’s the BIG O…. and then does his signature eye roll into his skull and McCool just yells out “ FLAWLESS “ …..

Melina…. Oh Melina….

Michelle McCool wins to become the unified Womens Champion, with the help of Layla, and does anyone ever get creeped out by Striker always referring to Layla as his “ English Muffin “ ?! in a terrible English accent…. Anyways, congratulations Michelle McCool…. I still weep for your vag, but congratulations on becoming The Jericho of the Womens Division!

Kane Vs. Undertaker – As stated earlier, I don’t think there’s been a bigger win in WWE history than Undertaker scoring McCool….

So, I knew Kane would win….

How?!

It’s easy…. Undertaker worships the Satan, so he offered up his eternal soul to “ bang the squeash of Michelle McCool for life “ in return for never winning another match of meaningful significance for the rest of 2010….

The Satan agreed, mainly because he was like “ yes, let’s fuck with The Bro’s 'bating habits!!!! The mans inner palms are like crystalline quartz! “ …..

I’m really happy for Kane…. Dude’s a trooper…. Plus, he has got into some serious shape since winning The Belt…. Remember when his Belly Button resembled the start to a black hole that was going to eat the earth and bring about the end of the world?! They lied when they said the Large Haldryon Collider was located in Sweden, it was actually buried deep in Kane’s belly button canal….

Now, it’s just like a mini-supernova and you can see some Abs….

I like Kane…. But, this means we’ll have to endure AT LEAST two more weeks of promos that go like this….

* cue creepy organ music and red lighting *

“ brotherrrrrrrrrrrrr….. remember the time……….. we were playinggggggggggggg in the yardddddddddddddd…… we made mudddddddddddddd piessssssssssssssssssssss…… you stole mineeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee…… took a crapppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppp in it….. gave it to me and made me eat it under the guise of it being chocolate?! I hate youuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu….. And I don’t have a dictionary right nowwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww…. To properly use……………….. the 6,000 synonymsssssssssssssssssssssssssss that can convey my hatredddddddddddddddddddddddddd…. BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA “

Can we please get Paul Bearer back for the inevitable Hell in the Cell match coming?!

Hart Dynasty Vs. Any mismatched hangle dangle tag team they could come up with last second - Really…. This was not very interesting, because the only tag team they really spent time building, other than The Hart’s – Vladimir and Santino – lost…..

Look, I’m a Santino mark…. There are many others too and I just don’t get why they won’t give him a meaningless belt…. Especially ones as meaningless as The Tag Team ones….

The fans mark out for him, he gives awesome promos and he’s entertaining in the ring….

And that’s more than I can say for, let me be realistic here and not overstep my bounds….

EVERY FUCKING TAG TEAM IN THIS MATCH

If you took a survey of 100 WWE fans, 99 of them would choose watching Santino and Vladimir with the titles and the vignettes that would follow as opposed to Drew and Cody….

If you look closely at the belts after Drew and Cody won them, you can CLEARLY see the Spartan Warrior on them shedding tears…. They’re not worthy….

VLADIMIR AND SANTINO FTWWWWWWWWWWWWWW!!!!!!!!

Orton vs Cena vs Sheamus vs Jericho vs Barrett vs Edge

I’ll stop typing and observe a moment of silence for the Greatest American Wrestler of ALL Times, possibly last match, in WWE….

Jericho….

I’d also like to take this time to write my personal plea to Jericho….

Dearest Jericho,

Please don’t leave my television…. You’re the most entertaining person in WWE…. You’re a great wrestler and an even GREATER performer…. I have your poster tacked to the wall beside my bed…. I’ve remained a reborn virgin because of that, but I refuse to take it down… That may sound creepy, and it is…. BUT! That’s what you mean to me…. I’d gladly never squeash another vag again to make sure your poster hangs proudly and watches me sleep…. With the words “ I’m the best In the world at what I do “ written on it…. I smile thinking “ he means wrestling, but me…. I’m the best in the world at what I do too….. masturbation “ …. But, I digress…. We’ve had a torrid love affair with each other for years…. shit, man….. Just last night I wore my “ Jericoholic Ninja “ homemade shirt to Hooters…. I wear it out in public and get laughed at, as I probably should, but I don’t care, I will gladly sport your stuff anywhere… anytime…. Don’t leave us….. Or….. If you do….. Don’t make it too long…. Please?! Come on, I’ve given up the golden years of my penis lifetime and my dignity by wearing Jericho’s Personal Security homemade shirts out in public….. You can, AT LEAST, agree to this….. Right?!

So, after I just assured myself of a restraining order if he ever reads this, I’ll move on….

Match was good, yet bittersweet….

I really thought with the DVD coming out, that Jericho was going to win….Then drop it at the next PPV….

And yes, I’m a gullible mark….

But, he was eliminated first…. FIRST!

That’s like me choosing which Diva I’d have sex with….

And eliminating Kelly Kelly first….

After that, it was all downhill for me, and I think I drank three beers in a row, quickly, to dull the pain……

Orton wins, the fans cheer, which amuses me, because this guy was THE MOST HATED HEEL in the company for years on end… Then, Legacy breaks up with him, a move that should have been cheered by the fans, and he becomes A HUGE FACE…. Don’t understand… I live in bizarrooooo wrestling world….

Cena should realize he needs to turn heel…. It would be epic and news worthy….. The fans are already split and with each passing month, he gets more boos…. So why not just have him come out, and the turn has basically written itself….

“ I’ve given everything to you guys… I’ve carried this company on my back… I’ve sacrificed everything to entertain you and you still boo me?! Are you kidding me?! I have to wear these stupid shirts with flashy colors so you simpletons are drawn to them like moths to a flame…. I have to wear JORTS, because most of you are trash and think these things are fashionable and can relate with me on a level, you…. Let’s face it, never will…. Just like I had to change my finishing moves name to make it more kid friendly…. I don’t even like kids!!!! Actually, I despise them! Especially these dirty little bastards in the front row…. Look at you…. Fat, stupid looking and already crippled with the fact you were born into poverty by parents who had to set back 80 percent of their monthly earnings to buy tickets here tonight….. I HATE YOU…… Like my finishing move was once called… I leave you with my final thoughts…. FU….. “

See, it’s simple….

He needs a change… He’s gotten stale, but like him or hate him, he’s entertaining and a decent wrestler….

Although, I’m assuming He will face Barrett one last time….

I’ve really fallen for Edge recently, so I’m interested in where he goes from here….

And Yeah…..

Decent show…. Not the best this year, but not Extreme Rules 2010 bad either…..

Watching this, I quickly realized that I do, in some sick twisted spot in my psyche miss Triple H…. And Vince….. And Shane…..

I want them back….

!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! BREAKING NEWS !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Starting this week, later in the week, The Bro Wrestling Entertainment Corporation is introducing a new writer to the blog…. He should have a blog up here on Thursday…. He’s everything I’m not, and will be a Great addition and contrast to my articles….

He’s well versed, smart, connected and decent…. He’s a good writer and can actually judge a match based off moves and not pick apart the smallest detail of everything, like yours truly….

You’ll enjoy it…. He’s a former TNA employee and hopefully we don’t come to written blows over my dislike of them nowadays…..

My Problems With Local Indy Wrestling

My problem with local independent wrestling are as follows….

- Too many out of shape guys working …. Now look, I’m not asking for everyone to be a Greek God, like me, but it’s really not that much to ask that you don’t resemble an average, everyday schlub.

This is wrestling.

When some of the fans, including myself, are in better shape than you, there’s a problem. When Chicken Hat can dance for 15 minutes and not get winded, and you are sucking air just by climbing into the ring, there’s an issue.

Being a wrestler, you’re supposed to hit the gym, I’m guessing 5 days a week?! Some of these local guys look like they go to the gym about as many times as they enter Hollister and Co. in the mall…. NEVER….

You wouldn’t want to pay money to go eat at a restaurant that billed itself as “ Real Authentic Chinese Food “ and then be told that the cook is a 17 year old American high school kid, whose only culinary achievement was heating up hot pockets and easy mac…. So, why should you expect the average fan to come to the show and pay to see a roster full of out of shape and average looking wrestlers, when, they can just go to youtube and put in “ drunk fights “ and see the same thing for free?

- Too many promoters who don’t care about the fans…. This is a HUGE problem. Promoters, for years, have taken complete advantage of the fans. And fans, as a whole, have the whole ‘ beaten dog ‘ syndrome. We get treated like shit and there we are, week after week, begging at the foot of the promoter to let us in, like a beaten dog begs for a treat….

There is one exception, here locally, and that’s Tony Faulk. He seems to be legit and cares about the fans. But overall, promoters see the average wrestling fan, and it’s probably a fair assumption overall, as small minded simpletons whose biggest thrill every week is going down to the local run downed shanty to watch some ‘rasslin …..

And, even if that’s the case, these are your core customers who come week after week, so why not cater to them and treat them with at least a modicum of respect. Because, let’s face it,with the economy and the independent wrestling business the way it is, you need these die hard customers, because they pay your bills and your roster. I know, I know, most promoters just did a double take when I had the gall to mention they pay their roster…..

- Too many shows being ran out of places that should be condemned …. I know when I go to a wrestling match locally, the first thing I want to be thinking of is “ am I caught up on all my shots? “ …. When I’m sitting watching a wrestling show, I don’t want to have to worry about catching the Ebola Virus…. When I leave a wrestling show, I don’t want to have to leave through a plastic tunnel into a CDC washing area, where I’ll be hosed down by a guy in a yellow hazmat uniform, while another uniformed CDC agent scrubs me with a sponge…..

The reason I stopped going to the Stadium Inn, is because I was tired of going to the bathroom in my sandals and getting my toes completely drenched in GOD KNOWS, what human fluid was on the floor…. Now, it wouldn’t have been so bad, if it was just little puddles under the urinals, I get that…. As a guy, we have the drippy drops…. But, when the floor looks like a firetruck pulled in there and the firemen got the hose and doused the place with human urine and other bodily excretions, it’s ridiculous….

I was literally standing at the urinal, taking a pisser, not moving, when I noticed that my feet were gliding out away from under me because of the slickness of the floor…. The toilets look like some crazy scientist thought to himself “ I wonder if someone took a shit in the same toilet for 45 straight weeks, without flushing, would a living, breathing, shit baby be produced?! “, and then proceeded with the experiment at the Stadium Inn….

I’m not asking to go see wrestling at the Taj Mahal…. But, asking for it to be held in an auditorium or a gym, isn’t really asking too much…. And, it’s not asking much to make sure that the place passes a basic health code screening either…. When I go take a piss, and somebody stands beside me and goes “ pssssh, my dick is bigger than yours, homey “, and I look over and it’s a cockroach, we got issues…. When Chicken Hat warns me “ I wouldn’t go in there if I was you “ in reference to the bathroom, I worry…. Because, he’s obviously not the bastion of cleanliness in the first place…. When I open my antibacterial gel and I hear it scream like a banshee, there are problems…..

- Too many wrestlers not dressed like a wrestler – This a HUGE issue with my grandfather, who’s from the old school wrestling world, where you never wrestled in anything but tights and kneepads.Look, this probably ties in with my first point, but if you’re not going to train your body to look like a wrestler, AT LEAST, dress like one.

Too many wrestlers on the indy scene dress like they just got down stepping out of a timewarp from 1993 after they just left the flea market…. Jorts and airbrushed shirts, what the hell is up with that?! One of my biggest problems with John Cena, is the fact he wears jorts into the ring…. BUT, at least he looks like a wrestler….

One of the things I’m always yelled at, because of my unique opinions is, ‘ you don’t respect the business! “ …. I generally laugh at this statement, because most of the time, it’s made by these ham and eggers who dress like this, showing no respect for the business themselves…. Do you know how many tranvestites have fooled many a men by dressing and appearing to be a chick?! If you’re not going to take pride in your body, AT LEAST, take pride in your ruse, chumps!

- The ridiculous infighting between promoters – I’ve been reading this story online about Gary Valiant being fired because he worked a show for a rival promotion and that pissed off another promoter, leading him to be fired.

That’s ridiculous.

The guy is trying to make a living, and trust me, I’m not the biggest Boogie fan on earth, so me defending him, is actually a rare occurrence, like me NOT gettingvag when I go out.

But this is the biggest pile of horseshit I’ve ever heard…. If I get a second job, that doesn’t interfere with my first job, to make ends meet, my primary job can’t fire me for it. So, why is wrestling any different? Especially with the pocket change these local wrestlers make from the promoters….

This all reminds me of high school girl drama…. Two chicks are sitting at a table eating lunch, they always eat together, at the same time everyday at the same table….. One day, one of the girls needs help with her homework, so she goes sits at another table, because another girl is going to help her….. The next day she tries to sit at the old table, with her friend, but the friend yells at her “you can’t sit here, because you sat with her yesterday and picked her over me! “ …. The other girls is like “ but, I needed help with my homework, that was the only reason I sat there… “ …. The other girl starts looking around and not making eye contact with her “ is someone talking?! I hear words, but I don’t see anybody “ she says as she continues to look around the table, searching for the invisible voice, she acts like she’s hearing….

It’s stupid….

This is nothing but TOTAL TEENAGE GIRL DRAMA… But with it being Prentice, this doesn’t surprise me…. But, what cracks me up the most, is the fact that a promoter THINKS he’s punishing a certain wrestler, by firing him for working for another promoter….

I can see a Prentice like promoter, sitting at his desk, stroking a cat, going “ I’ll have the final laugh…. He thinks he can show me up by working for another promoter who will pay him a payout, because he wasn’t making dick with me…. I’ll fire him and let him go ply his trade for money somewhere else….. He’ll be kicking himself when he opens up his payout envelope, looking at the dust rising from my escaping, speeding car in the parking lot and not seeing a handwritten note that says “ sorry kid, next time “ and instead sees dollar bills…. Those cold, inanimate, nonpersonal bills with someone elses pictures on it…. I’ll show him! HARRUMPH! “

It’s ridiculous….

Reminds me of working for a restaurant, where the general managers believe they’re the shit, because they run ONE chain restaurant, out of 20, in a 50 mile radius…. “ so you wanna go make more money, in what you perceive as a better environment, in a better position huh?! … well fuck you, what gives you the right to want to make a better life for yourself! I rule you!! I control you!!!! “ they shout as you walk out the door laughing at them, while they raise their fist in the air, still going off about your perceived lack of appreciation for being a common house slaves ….. If a wrestler is popular in a certain area, why not try to exploit that, by putting him on your show and bringing his fans in to your show, instead of refusing to use him because he works for a promoter who gave you the stink eye one night?! The independent wrestling circuit is dying slowly, so why try to speed up the process by having promoters bitch and bicker with one another?! Come together and help the sport, you calim to “ love “ , although, I’m sure my suspicion of you loving yourself and money more than the actual business, is all too true…. You’re a wrestling promoter…. Not Donald Trump….

- Old Time Bookers - If there is one thing that has never changed in local independent wrestling, it's..... EVERYTHING... It's time to shake things up, take a chance, go on the ledge, get away from the ' my boys ' mentality and be unique.... There is too much favoritism and ego baby-ing among local promoters.... Get someone outside your company, someone with no rooting interest, besides putting a good wrestling show on, to write and book your show.... There are thousands of people out there willing to do it... Someone like me, would do it for free, because we want to see wrestling survive and thrive, and there are hundred's of ' Me's ' in the area.... Well, maybe not someone with my dashing good looks, irresistible personality or unique creativity, but they are out there....

A lot of people will see this as another attempt to flame, but I am not. I'm just trying to give suggestions to help a business I love and thousands of others love, that is dying.... And I don't want to sit back and watch it take it's last gasps without trying to add my two cents...
