Motown Saint Posted May 22, 2019 Report Share Posted May 22, 2019 Me too. When I was starting to put together the Sigs and Fins list for 2k19, I used every outlet I could, and Wikipedia was one of them. Good thing we still have Wikia. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

maskedmaniac Posted May 23, 2019 Report Share Posted May 23, 2019 TIL that, in a football/soccer match in 1989, a Chilean goalkeeper named Roberto Rojas did an actual blade job to get the other team, which was Brazil, excluded from the 1990 World Cup in favor of Chile. The situation was that a flare was thrown from the Brazilian crowd near Rojas, who appeared to be hit by it and was rolling on the floor in pain. His teammates then found him bleeding profusely from the head. With the game called off and the damage appearing to be done by Brazilian supporters, Brazil was looking at exclusion from the 1990 World Cup as punishment, losing the game with Chile automatically which would've seen Chile go to that World Cup. However, an Argentine photographer captured the moment on camera and in that, also the moment where Rojas cut himself with a razor blade that he hid in his goalkeeper gloves. With the revelation of the blade job, the Argentine photographer saved Brazil from punishment. The international governing body, FIFA, incensed by the deception, decided to exclude Chile not only from the 1990 World Cup, but also the 1994 World Cup. And the blading goalkeeper? Banned for life. Career over. Punishing a whole team and country for what one guy did is pretty harsh. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Motown Saint Posted May 23, 2019 Report Share Posted May 23, 2019 Today I learned that Eric Bishoff slept with Kimblerly Page, and that Sunny ran the train with the Kliq. Plus, I also learned that Sheamus was who the WWE wanted to be on the WWE '13 cover instead of Punk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Creepia Posted May 23, 2019 Report Share Posted May 23, 2019 I forgot that Jericho, Hangman, Omega and Cody were all high flyers. That Ace Romero guy also looks like he can pull off a corkscrew 450 standing moonsault as well. Labelling someone a high flyer is so antiquated now. Wrestling has changed, those styles of wrestling are (for the most part) no longer applicable. Especially because the best wrestlers in the world can do all of it. And LEGION is right. Doing a dive doesnt make you a high flyer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Craig Warden Posted May 24, 2019 Report Share Posted May 24, 2019 I wasn't saying doing dive made you a High flyer, I am saying starting the match where all defense mechanisms consist of doing nothing but planchas and moonsaults and where the finish would usually be an unrealistic sequence. I don't want every match to be Will Ospreay vs Ricochet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lunchbox Posted May 24, 2019 Report Share Posted May 24, 2019 Lmao Janela is not doing flips and moonsaults. SCU, Trent, Havoc, MJF are all totally not high flyers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't want every match to be Will Ospreay vs Ricochet.Good thing neither Ospreay nor Ricochet is a part of AEW then. And even if they were... I doubt that they would face each other in every single match on the card. I'm not sure what you mean by unrealistic finish sequence though. High Flyers usually have less ridiculous finishes than other styles of wrestling. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is of course, he lost at WM 24 wearing blue and he won against Hogan at Uncensored 99' wearing red. Beat Eric Bischoff wearing red too. Lost to Stone Cold wearing blue. Twice if going by tag team matches, then the W/L record in red or blue attire is longer than what I listed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
