thefunkyfaz 51 Posted February 1, 2015 Saw the revamped TNA impact last night, looked very cheap and the camera angles were a mess . Speaking of angles (see what i did there) Kurt angle looks just f##king ill and its sad to see him like that. He reminds me of the ultimate warrior bright red ,sweating, swollen up and heavy breathing , though the ultimate warrior was like that for a few years. I would be surprised if kurt angle lives past his 50s if he continues to abuse his body, he is 46 now he may not even make it to his 50s.Fuck. I hope you're exaggerating with the Warrior comparison. Haven't seen TNA in ages. Will try to catch it soon. Is he abusing painkillers still? Sorry I don't keep up with wrasslin news either. Wasn't there a rumour for a while he had HIV?(!) He has looked terrible for about a decade now though hasn't he? From various arrests he has been hooked or still is hooked on alcohol , cocaine ,Heroin , painkillers and steroids . Yea he was supposed to have HIV but probably just a rumour maybe connected to his drug use. He actually started to look bad near the end of his wwe run which was around 2006 I think. He is going the same way as ultimate warrior sad but its history repeating itself over and over in the wrestling world with regards to these deaths. I would probably give TNA a miss for a month or two until the new channel learns how to put together and film a wrestling show ,chances are half the cameramen working that show have never filmed a show even remotely close to it before. I have to say, having watched it live last night at Wemberley, Kurt Angle has still got it. His match against Lashley for the heavyweight championship was by far the best and most physical fight of the evening. And out of all the wrestlers going from the Arena to their hotel afterwards, he was the one who spent the longest stopping for autographs, selfies and generally making time for the fans (well, those of us who hadn't got tickets to the afterparty). Which made my lad's night. Good for a few years yet, I hope. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Spade_Cooley 9,525 Posted February 9, 2015 According to Saraya Knight, Drew McDonald, the Highlander from Hell, has an unannounced form of cancer. As a World of Sport alumni who was involved in the FWA revival with Talksport in the early part of last decade, I think he'd sneak an obit. Dead Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

BTW you may want to investigate how that PM function works instead of mucking up a perfectly good thread with superfluous noise. No one else wants to see all that. Lastly, your complaint was that it 'wasn't wrestling related', now once that's shot down your target has moved and you complain that it's 'tenuous'.

Spade_Cooley 9,525 Posted March 8, 2015 Just found out Vince McMahon's biological mother, Victoria Askew is still alive aged 95. That's not his step mother who raped him, so she might get a mention on Sky Sports when she goes off. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Dr. Zorders 1,271 Posted March 8, 2015 Vince McMahon is now the same age that his father was, when he died. Vince McMahon Sr. died of cancer. And Vince Jr. doesn't have/hasn't had cancer as far as we know. On the other side of things though, Vince Sr. wasn't a puffed-up, steroid-addled old blowhard.

Ankou 17 Posted March 9, 2015 I wonder if it's because of the steroids that many of the wrestlers die so young. In the Ultimate Warrior's case it probably is. I miss the good old days when wrestlers didn't need to looks like pumped up models to be successful. I doubt shapeless people like Jerry Lawler, Adrian Adonis, Dusty Rhodes, Greg Valentine would even be allowed into the ring nowadays. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
