That New Day episode is definitely a pro click, and if you can’t watch all of it at least watch The first 10 minutes or so. Big E cuts straight to the heart of it in a really powerful way.

Joey Janela is on the latest episode of the Doughboys. It's a (bad) podcast that reviews chain restaurants. The hosts have talked about going to PWG and BOLA before so it should be pretty interesting.

Doughboys are pro-Bugmane, so even if their podcasts can be hit and miss, they're still on the right side of history.

Just dropped this week's Rudocast. We cover the left side of the New Japan Cup bracket and give our picks for breakout performances, upsets, and who's going to be the most rudo. Plus we talked AEW Dynamite looking ahead to Fyter Fest.

Also, Scotty signed up for an OnlyFans but is trying to figure out what to put on there.

This paragraph from Dave's obituary of Mr. Wrestling 2 took me by surprise. It's not like he even dwells on it or reflects at all, just moves straight onto Two's sumo career.

quote:

He had a gang rape accusation on July 9, 1953. The alleged incident, involving a 15-year-old girl, took place at Sandy Beach on the South Shore of Oahu. Newspaper reports from the time list John Frances Walker, a gas station attendant at a Waikiki service station, being one of nine men involved a gang rape. It was a bad crowd he was hanging with, and something long forgotten about. Walker was arrested only for this rape, but four of the nine men were charged with another rape four days earlier of a 14-year-old and two others in rapes of two other teenage girls earlier the same day on Sandy Beach.

$90 for the pro mask, which is a stretchy spandex material like you'd get on workout tights. $50 for the semi-pro which is more of a poly-cotton blend. Still stretchy but thicker and heavier than the pro mask. You probably don't need the pro unless you plan on wrestling in the mask or wearing it all day and need the extra breathability.

I am terrible at anything graphics related so I asked a designer to make the designs and templates as a reference and I think that really helped. If you want the mask maker or designer's info PM me or hit me up on twitter or discord.

Thank you for the responses. I've always been curious how much cost is involved in wrestler's gear - most of them seem to change them frequently so that expense has to add up after a while. That and lets be honest who here hasn't wanted a custom luchador mask at some point?

Found in an old WON:

"main event was mask vs. mask with Fuerza Guerrera beating Gallo Tapado, who unmasked as Hernando Marques. Both bled and even though Tapado is a relic from the 70s, Guerrera worked great and carried it to a very good match. In the beginning, Tapado came out with a live chicken as a mascot similar to Koko Ware and Guerrera grabbed the chicken and started hitting Tapado with it. They could never get away with that in the U.S. and it was pretty bizarre to see it here. The bird was trying to fly away and Guerrera just kept pounding on Tapado with it. ***1/4"

And the mercy seat is awaiting,
And I think my head is burning,
And in a way I'm yearning,
To be done with all this measuring of proof.
An eye for an eye
And a tooth for a tooth,
And anyway I told the truth,
And I'm not afraid to die.

A few years back someone dug up a string of reader notes like "John Doe is interested in World Class, Memphis, and Traci Lords tapes" well after her infamy and when the FBI was involved. Someone eventually clued Dave in.

I happen to have them saved in some BTS notes...

2/23/93: John C. of [Address], Wantagh, NY 11793 is looking for a regular supplier of FMW, New Japan, All Japan and WWC tapes and has Smoky Mountain tapes for trade. He's also looking to hear from fans of Traci Lords, Kiss and horror movies.

4/26/93: John B. of [Address], House Springs, MO 63051 is looking to buy pre-8/91 Observers and yearbooks and Traci Lords videos.

6/21/93: Louis W. of [Address], Brooklyn, NY 11235 is looking for current Japan tapes and 70s U.S. tapes and has custom tapes to trade as well has hockey fight tapes and Traci Lords videos.

7/5/93: Eric R. of [Address], New Baltimore, MI 48047 is looking for Traci Lords videos and the 5/3 Fukuoka Dome.

I don't think Dave's ever talked about it. There is, however, a rec.sport.pro-wrestling thread from around that time where Gary Will (of Wrestling Title Histories fame) jokes that you need to include "Traci Lords videos" to get a response to classifieds and Andy Patrizio says he warned Dave to steer clear: https://groups.google.com/forum/#!s...bU/Ih8XctMLOQ4J

Dave's stance seemed far more reasonable, if you are going to reshoot parts of a match and edit it together, including new sound editing it's very different from doing a match in one take.
