As Triple B says, was out a few days later and back to his usual moaning. Also, for those who picked him, Roman Reigns is on mend apparently, anyhow he's well enough to be insured for role in new Fast and Furious film, and living in Hawaii because that's where a vast chunk of his family live.

My laughing emoji is tempered a little by the fact that I'm only about a half-dozen years younger than Sir Creep and old enough to remember when Bellomo actually won matches on WWF TV.

Yeah, but it is in English, I translated it via Google. And it's a bloody good translation. Now we await the QO for the DDP. Go get it, Joey. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Would be lying if I said I had any real desire to go and re-investigate him as a worker, but RIP nonetheless. Despite being well past his prime, his Don Muraco/Randy Savage matches were good. Mind you, it took spectacularly bad wrestlers to have bad matches with Macho Man... Sad news though, as this means the Father of the House for WWF Champs is now Superstar Billy fucking Graham.

I also complain. No one can read that foreign trash so one may as well attach a photo of Big Bird from Sesame Street and an autographed hub cap from Dale Earnhardt (wait for it....) for all the good an obit written by a Tibetan Monk is going to do. Just note the death and that we await an obit. You’ll get cred for being first. SC Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

msc 18,443 Posted February 17, 2019 In an instagram post now deleted, Corey Graves's soon to be ex-wife kindly drags his alcoholism and suicide attempts into the public arena, and his shagging womens wrestler Carmella*. Coupled with his Twitter meltdowns and Post Concussion Syndrome, might be one to watch. Quote “This may be totally below me to do but I’m hurt. I’m sad. I’ve put 11 years into supporting a man to accomplish his dream only for him to punch me in the gut! I’ve been through suicide attempts, alcoholism, among so much more with him and stuck by his side. The kicker is finding out that he’s been sleeping with one of my daughters role models all along. @carmellawwe and @wwegraves I hope you guys are happy. I really do!” *Shocker it ain't Mandy Rose, tbh. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
