Halloween Jack posted:Does Bryan's knee have a name yet? From Backstage Pass after a Smackdown Bryan: ”There’s only one person left I have to beat to get a fair shot at the WWE Championship and that’s Triple H. He says I’m a B+ player, well I’m going to knee him right in the face. If he thinks I’m a B+, I’m going to show him a Knee Plus.” They've yet to call it that on air.

When Bryan hit the knee on Orton and Batista stole the pin, I thought Batista was going to win because NO ONE KICKS OUT OF THE KNEE!!

Does Bob Backlund have some sort of degenerative mental disorder or did he just get caught making goofy faces at Mania?

A ton of people, including Meltzer and Alvarez had pitched Batista stealing the win to set-up him and Bryan in a singles at Extreme Rules, so that was my heart attack moment. Well, after Taker losing, which I did a legit double take at.

So can you guys tell me about a wrestler named 'Bruiser Bob Sweetan'? I don't know if that's spelled right or not. He would have been active in the south, When I was talking to my dad during and before wrestlemania he mentioned he was his favorite wrestler as a kid. My Dad's in his early 50s or so if that helps.

What was the deal with Rey Misterio during the Andre battle royale? At one point he was cowering from the Big Show, begging him for mercy in the corner. It seemed like this would lead to Rey heelishly sneak-attacking him/eliminating him, but it went nowhere.

At one point he was cowering from the Big Show, begging him for mercy in the corner. It seemed like this would lead to Rey heelishly sneak-attacking him/eliminating him, but it went nowhere. This was a repeat of a spot they did in the go-home show where Big Show showed Rey mercy after Rey begged off, only for Rey to sneak attack him with a 619 (and ultimately fail).

There's probably some of his stuff from Stampede recorded, I believe Stu was one of the earliest to save his tapes. Here's a tag of his with Bruiser Brody in a battle of the bruisers! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5H0TzE1h0Ic There's more if you search.

Bob Sweetan is also best known as being described by Jim Cornette as looking "like someone set his face on fire and then put it out with an axe." Not a handsome man, he.

He mentioned that he wouldn't sign autographs or take pictures with fans unless they could recite the presidents in order in an article for the WWF magazine back in 1994 during his run to the WWF title, so I guess he's just incredibly dedicated to being consistent with his crazy character for some reason, to the point where he can't even just smile and wave at a camera acknowledging his presence.

Halloween Jack posted:Rumour has it he was imprisoned and deported to Canada for molesting his stepdaughter. As I posted that deep down inside I knew this had to be the case. I'm not sure if it is an inner assumption to always assume the worst with wrestlers or if I've read that at some point, but, of course it's always awful.

When did the "Yes! No! Yes! No! Whoooooooaaaaaaaaa....yes!" thing with DB matches start? Also how many retirement matches in the last 35 years have been actual retirement matches? As far as I know, Shawn Michaels did retire, not counting being a guest referee at Wrestlemania 28.

Stone Cold Steve Austin's retirement match was at WrestleMania 19 (though he didn't tell anyone until afterwards) and, so far, he hasn't worked a single match since. Someone can give an answer to the Daniel Bryan question because I really don't know other than it must have happened after Daniel Bryan stopped being the "NO!" heel.

Baba never wrestled after his retirement match... but his retirement match was held after his death (they did an in ring ceremony they billed as a match since he never got to have a retirement match) so I am not sure that counts! The Destroyer never wrestled after his retirement match... unless you count the Baba ceremony! Mad Dog Vachon never wrestled after his retirement match. Hase never came back after his retirement match. Kobashi has been retired for less than a year but I am pretty sure his retirement match will stick, Taue's probably will too. Nigel McGuinness seems done after his retirement tour. Kensuke Sasaki will probably never wrestle after his retirement match but it's only been a few months so it's weird to include it. He'd be risking his health if he did though. I don't know if Dynamite Kid's final match was actually billed as a retirement match or not. It was billed as a special legends match and he was clearly done, but I don't remember how it was billed. Bull Nakano won't wrestle again after her retirement show, although she technically didn't do a match, there were just re-enactments of famous matches she's done with her in her gear looking like she did in her glory days.

How many retirement matches has Terry Funk had?http://www.angelfire.com/ok2/hardcorerevolution2/funk.html posted:Funk came down with a mild case of Hepitias A in January.He knew the end of his carrer was near.So he fufilled his independent and ECW dates.The now 55 year old Hardcore Legend offically retired after winning a match against SABU in Hamilton Ontario Canada on Sunday Night June 5 1999 at a independent show for the Apocolypse Wrestling Federation. Terry Funk will always be remembered as one of the toughest men to lace up a pair of boots.

My mother mentioned offhand to me that she used to watch a little wrestling when she was a kid with her dad and namedropped Chief Jay Strongbow. Was he any good, and are there any matches that are worth seeing with him in it? If it's on the Network that would help, though with what little I know I'm not sure if he'd be anywhere.
