unfortunately he landed on a fallen over roces skate, sans wheel, and the truck went 3 inches into his heel
didnt wrestle much after that

How can a pay per view sell out?
the ppv bit is what you do when you pay to watch it on the telly, like sky and setanta do for their footie games
and there are ads that are run during the shows to let kids know about how this guys are professionsls and have trained for years to make sure the moves they do are safe, and they end with the lines (please do try these moves at home or at school"

if think lots of peole ehre misunderstand the size of the operation that is wrestling, just ebcause you've never heard of it or carry outdated big daddy/giant haystacks views, doens't mean to say things haven't changed
it's like you driving about in morris ital and not wanting to go and buy a newer car because you don't want to know about creature comforts

when shawn superkicked jannetty through the window of the barber shop?
shocking wasn't the word, it was nearly as shocking as when andre ripped trhe t-shirt and cross from hogan with jesse looking shocked and everyone one looking stunned
nowadays, with everything on the internet, i'm surprised they keep things quiet until it's showtime

Genuine question Dojj, whats the wrestling on Bravo2, I happend to switch over too it the other night and it had Kurt Angle on it...
I used to love watching WWF, but when it was all put on the Sky sport channels, (which I dont have) I lost interest.
Used to have a massive crush on LITA, it was worth watching the WWF just for her

kurt is wrestling in tna now from what i can recall
he is one of the best out there no matter what anyone says, even after all of his neck surgery he still looks like an animal in the ring and a pussycat outside
winning an olympic gold in wrestling with a broken neck sustained in the build up to the event is something else, it's not just dedication, it's a whole other level, which is why he gets so much respect in the business
as for lita, not too sure about that
she was serious involved with one of the hardy's, and then they broke up, and then she broke up edge's marriage when he was boinking her backstage
when his mrs found out they got properly split up for a good few months, and even though the script was that edge would get all jiggy with lita on screen, they stopped all the kissing and it was just a bit of kinky canoodling afterwards when edge woo'd his mrs back
no coincedence that the fans were calling her a slut, but vince played to the crowd and got her lots more exposure, and i don't mean a playboy cover either
if there is a way to make money, vince knows better than most, how to milk the crowd
on the other hand, summerslam coming up tomorrow night means forking out a few quid, but i'd rather get the dvd in a month or so which will have better stuff on it, although nothing beats watching it live at 1am
