  1. Found out this girl I like at work is leaving. I shot my shot and got let down easy. Stings a bit, but it's better that I tried and got shot down. Otherwise my anxiety would've drove me nuts and I'd have lived with the regret of not asking.
  2. He grew up in Toronto if I remember correctly.
  3. Are you talking about Vince owning the WTBS timeslot? I believe so. I randomly saw it on YouTube. Although it was What Culture, so I guess theyre reliable?Yeah, Vince bought the 6:05 WTBS timeslot, which was Georgia's TV. Not the company though. Ohhhhh I see. So he didnt own it twice? Damn.Selling the timeslot to Jim Crockett helped pay for the first Wrestlemania though! If I remember correctly.

  6. Hell yeah! I love them a lot as well. Thankfully I get to see them locally.
  7. Matches vs Riddle and vs AR Fox, six man tag at Rev Pro, probs some other shit. Vs. Austin Theory at PROGRESS as well.
  8. My new laptop arrived today. It's exactly what I need.
  9. If you use it through the WWE website you get the full Network.
  10. Where'd they pull the first match from? UPW.
  11. Yeah, during his recovery. His back was so badly hurt he had to slim down. He couldn't physically handle all of the extra bulk.
  12. Austin at the time was going to be in an angle with Eddie. Flair and Benoit were also involved. It has been theorized that the angle would lead to a stable with Flair, Benoit, and Eddie. He was a huge fan of Dusty and due to his similar build initially was going to name himself "Rambling" Ricky Rhodes. And because he was weight training with Ken Patera in those days.
  13. His nickname was cannonball as well.
  14. Haha, I saw that on Twitter earlier.
  15. TIL James Brown got his "Please, Please, Please" cape routine from Gorgeous George.
  16. That Stanley Kubrick was a photojournalist before his legendary and groundbreaking career in film. LOOK Magazine published a series entitled "Chicago - City of Extremes." For the series, Kubrick took photographs of working class Chicago; including a Gorgeous George wrestling match (photographs of the spectators of the match were taken, as well as the competitors) - this being the most famous photograph.
