Watched the FWA British Uprising show from 2002, this was a pretty big deal at the time and it's interesting to see how it's aged - pretty well in some cases (Robbie Brookside vs Drew McDonald, Doug Williams vs Jerry Lynn, Johnny Storm vs AJ Styles) and really badly in others (everything else). The main event was nuts, though. A shit excuse for a wrestling match, complete with Russo-esque run-ins, but the spots were just reckless enough for me to give a shit. Also, this was a hugely iconic moment for British wrestling in the early 2000's;
I feel like this was shown over and over again on TWC back in the day.
This is an amusing clip, but it highlights why "WWE" is perhaps a poor choice for the company name.

I've always wondered if someone had a winless streak and it was booked as such, would they get over with the crowd if they kept getting close to winning but kept losing due to cheap wins and the like?
Wasn't that Barry Horowitz?
123 kid?

Was it? I never saw any of his work.
I know Brad Armstrong had a 'curse' during his WCW run, but I don't think they ever want anywhere with it in terms of a real story. He just kept losing a lot.
Yeah, I guess his feud with Razor is somewhat like what I'm thinking about, but on a larger scale. I might have to watch that one again.

This counts too I guess. He was more just a jobber who had a really stupid but memorable gimmick though.
I'm actually really happy I'm not the only one who remembers Barry Horowitz though

I guess it's time to find some Barry Horowitz matches on The Network!

Miz is 4-0 if you discount the Andre the Giant Battlle Royale. I can't think of anybody better to carry the legacy.
Kill em all..Back on top!!!

And you thought Zack Ryder answering the NXT open challenge last week was a coincidence.
Check out NXT's newest tag team:

Now pair Cass/Enzo with them and become "the 4 brehs".

Dean can say WWE however he wants. That was awesome.

I think they're intentionally trying to keep them separated, as much as it'd make sense.

Did anyone go to IWA East Coast's Masters of Pain 2015 Deathmatch tournament here?
Fucking sick!

re: scott hall
guess what: addiction is a tough habit to break. it takes a bunch of attempts before you start to get a decent handle on it.
does it make you feel good to be like 'lol alcoholics are losers, who cars if he lives or dies anymore'? nasty mean spirited comments, but you're not the only one.
just saying this in case you ever encounter this situation in real life. maybe don't chime in with 'lol you fuck up' cos it actually doesn't help in my experience, if that is even your motivation.
on the other hand taking to twitter every time invites callous internet people to chime in i guess. i dunno how many tries he's actually had but wasn't he doing pretty well there for like at least a year? that's pretty big, maybe he's actually making progress.

CZW attracts way more people for their deathmatch and regular shows. IWA East Coast is quite a small company. Plus, I doubt this sort of wrestling is that famous to begin with.

yeah they are pretty striking because they look good and have some nice colouring too, but then you realise what you are looking at is the grossest and stupidest shit ever
