Beats Posted January 5, 2013 I know a lot of us enjoy the Wrestling chat but it's hard to get a good discussion going on other threads so thought I'd start this. Royal Rumble in a few weeks and the Rock is back http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EFpAD36d48o Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Homme Posted January 5, 2013 Ah the Royal Rumble. Me and my mates would stick a fiver in each and draw random numbers from a hat between 1 and 30. Whoever had the winning number (the number the winning wrestler came in at) won the pot. Not watched it in a few years now. The memories Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

:shitwine: Posted January 5, 2013 Get right out of here http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jimmy_Snuka "On May 10, 1983, a few hours after Snuka had performed at a WWF TV taping at the Lehigh County Agricultural Hall in Allentown, Pennsylvania, Snuka placed a call for an ambulance. When emergency personnel arrived on the scene at Room 427 of the George Washington Motor Lodge in nearby Whitehall Township, they found Snuka?s girlfriend, Nancy Argentino, injured. She was transported to Allentown's Sacred Heart Medical Center, where she died shortly after of "undetermined craniocerebral injuries." Deputy Lehigh County coroner Wayne Snyder said, ?Upon viewing the body and speaking to the pathologist, I immediately suspected foul play and so notified the district attorney." Snuka was the only suspect involved in the subsequent investigation. Charges were not pressed against Snuka, although the case was left officially open, meaning no official judgment on whether the incident was accidental or homicide was ever made. In 1985, Argentino?s parents won a $500,000 default judgment against Snuka in U.S. District Court in Philadelphia, although Snuka appears not to have ever paid, claiming financial inability to do so" Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Legion of Doom were on that night too. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Van Wilder Posted January 5, 2013 I went to TNA while I was in Florida and it was one of the best nights i've had. Went on a PPV night as VIP and met most of the wrestlers and ring side seats. Also the really weird american die hards that are there every week and believe these characters are real told us a bar near Universal where the wrestlers go, and had a beer with Rob Van Dam and that guy that was on Gladiators.
