Sean 6,337 Posted May 23, 2018 The thread for Matt Capotelli. a promising young wrestler who lost his promising career to a brain tumour in 2006.Now battling stage Iv glioblastoma diagnosed nearly a year ago.Treatment was discontinued 3 weeks ago. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Joey Russ 7,229 Posted May 23, 2018 Not really sure he deserves his own thread. At least with John Bain, he's is very influential in his specialty. With Cappotelli, while he's probably going quite soon, he didn't really have that much of a career... 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Lewd_Squirrel 331 Posted May 23, 2018 Is this for just in case he makes it to the end of the year, so he can be added to the list. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Sean 6,337 Posted May 23, 2018 Just a thread like Brains for health updates and death announcements.Have them both in my work Deadpool and if at work on a 10 minute break on my phone having threads to follow is easier then delving through various notifications.

Spade_Cooley 9,544 Posted May 24, 2018 Rule should be if you can think of a funny pun for the thread sub-header, you shouldn't set it up. I mean wrestling forums don't have MattCap threads, I don't really think we need one. On the other hand, could be a good fury magnet. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Sir Creep 7,070 Posted May 25, 2018 I looked to see who thread-whored this thread creation....Sean had 2:1 odds and cane through. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Sean is 50% this week on "sods law" here with creating threads on DDP folk who promptly snuff it. So if he'd like to start threads on Philomena Lynott, Devin Lima, Pete Frates and Kathleen Blanco any hour now, that'd be much appreciated. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
