I've wrestled as Hades and under a mask as Silver Dragon, and filled in one night as Doink the Clown.
Tommy, don't remember his last name, currently runs Buzzsaw in Southern Oklahoma. I haven't worked with him since he changed to Buzzsaw, and he changed names so often I didn't pay attention. He handed me $25 a show in Midland to lay my ass down and get pinned. I didn't care what the company name or who my opponent was.
My old Avatar was me putting the Tarantula on Matrix circa 2001 during my only defense of the Xplosive Wrestling Television Title in Eden, TX. Where I also incited a riot with the asistance of Mike Wolf.Last edited by Peter H.; 11/22/2004 1:53pm at .

Hah, cool stuff Peter!
I entertained the though briefly of putting on about fifteen pounds and doing the indie rassilin thing...
That was until I read Mick Foleys books and realized that I wasn't ready for a commitment like that. Anybody that loves the business enough to go through with it has my respect.
Not to mention it seems like the only shows people put on in my area are the super bloody n' gimmicky hardcore matches, I'd much rather get into the more technical high-flying side of it, which it doesn't seem like there is much of a demand for anymore, atleast locally.
Share some good stories if you got 'em.
Oh yea, on topic, I really liked O'haires gimmick with the "Fight Club" mentality, when they put him with Piper I knew it was all over. -

I've talked some before here. Most of my stories are the dumbshit guys do, getting hurt and crap like that.

I appreciate the attention and all, but I don't want to turn this into a cock sucking thread for the benefit of my ego."Quiet fool before I am kicking the butt!"

Awsome Pete.
You're like the 4th person I know here that got involved in pro wrestling. I trained but never had a real match. I sort of dropped the idea when I need stable work. The scene in FL at the time wasn't too great. (My audition to replace one of the original POWER RANGERS didn't work out too well either)______

Got an amusing story about that too, my karate instructor's instructor taught the Green Ranger. Small ass world. In '98 I had the choice of stunt school or pro-wrestling, and I picked wrestling.

Eduardo "Why'd you stop."
Me "I was kicked in the head by the guys sparring next to me."
Eduardo "Ino what happened but i didnt say you could stop."
Me "Um.. I guess I keep going."
Eduardo "You dont stop until i say stop, you dont get tired until i say your tired, keep going."

My cousin gave me some tapes of him doing tkd. I learned from those tapes. When I beat up an Akido instructor, and made him take rest breaks, I used TKD. I learned Bjj from watching ufc and pride and then I copied them and wrestled my cousin for practice. I choked him out and he tapped. -
