PublicOpinion posted:Has anyone here gone to a 3-2-1 Battle! show in Seattle and if so what's the parking situation like if you're coming in from out of town? Their shows have two locations. One is in a gym which has no parking lot itself but is near a lot of places - including a church - where you might be able to park. The other is a bar close enough to Pike Place Market that you can use the parking garages there. That's my guesses anyway, I don't drive here.

There was a lucha match in southern California in the early 90s that no one taped because everyone who usually taped those things thought someone else would do it. It was a cage match but the cage was a six sided star and every review of the match was that it was bonkers amazing.

In a year the competition may heat up to the point where he'd get more for jumping ship then than he would now.

IIRC it's one of those situations where being open won't hurt Kenny but being open could hurt Ibushi. It is very definite that Kenny felt something though because he'll start crying when talking about how they had to split up.

Racists are as stupid as they are inconsistent. My mom loves saying she can't stand racists yet pals around with people who stopped talking to her for weeks because my sister married a black man.

A few times recently there was a problem caused by bing and google translate being poo poo that made "i'm not done yet" articles come across as "I'm retiring" articles. Does anyone else remember this? If so does anyone have a link to one of the articles whose mistranslation caused some issues?

In addition you had a few 'independent' territories (such as the future WWF) that weren't officially part of the NWA in order to avoid anti-trust lawsuits.

I recall in the 60s or 70s there was a wrestler who sued a promoter because he signed a contract guaranteeing a championship run and it either didn't materialize or went against the terms of the contract. This became a news story (though don't know how much of one) due to it being an admission that wrestling was scripted. Does anyone recall the details of this? Edit: it was Ron Starr and Leroy McGuirk TTBF fucked around with this message at 20:04 on Apr 13, 2021 |

What killed shoot-style in Japan? The availability of MMA? e: I'm going through the PRIDE FC history book and while it covers the rise of shoot-style it glosses over what happens to it once PRIDE starts. I know Pancrase and RINGS turned into actual MMA promotions but what about the others? TTBF fucked around with this message at 07:24 on Apr 24, 2021 |

I'm trying to find a documentary about a Japanese deathmatch wrestler who I believe is Jun Kasai. In it I recall the documentarians talking to his wife and child to see what they thought about his deathmatches. Anyone recall this or have a link to it?

I remember a match a few years ago (maybe mid to late 2010s) where I believe Taichi was fighting another member of Suzuki-Gun in the Best of Super Juniors. They were teammates and didn't want to actually fight so they just stalled for ten minutes without touching each other before one accidentally did so and it caused them to start brawling. Does anyone remember more details about this match?
