Lawler was the first name that popped into my mind. Jim Cornette was second.

I can honestly say that I saw Hashimoto live in person at the Barr-Reeve High School in Montgomery, Indiana, of all places.

She's making "beards" fashionable? Serge was probably not thrilled with that line.

I still pay attention and watch, periodically, the ROH shows. If I still had the push button ordering through the remote control deal, I'd order their ppvs.

Apparently, no one here gives a damn about this one. It wasn't bad for what it was. Clearly, the main attraction was Dusty's interaction with the Assassin. I wish they let Gordon Solie join in the commentary team for this match (taking place at the Bayfront and all). Jesse, who I loved in WCW, really doesn't help the angle at all though, with his snide remarks about the Assassin. Said Assassin's "fat man goes splat" bumps off Dusty's elbow were fantastic!

During the brief time I was in "the business", Mike Doggendorff and I had mutual friends. Turns out that Mike didn't have a copy of this angle. I made him a copy. They said he appreciated it.

I didn't get the Observer at the time. I was still getting the Apter mags (my friend being a spoiled brat got the PWI Weekly and held it over my head that I didn't). So, all of this really was a blur to me. I'd hear about this stuff a little on the news, but, wouldn't really get any detail for another six weeks or so until it was in the PWI. The weird thing, for me anyway, is that this era of wrestling is one of my very favorite. These years are considered a pretty dark time for wrestling but its my wheelhouse. I thought all the groups that I saw were doing great things. WWF was interesting/if still cloying but they were coming to Indy for WrestleMania, dammit! That made it big to us. WCW had the Dangerous Alliance and Cactus Jack and Abdullah and a Light Heavyweight Title and all kinds of fun. USWA (my home promotion) went wonderfully, gutterfully sleazy with the Embry - DWB feud, the Moondogs vs Lawler, Jarrett and whomever was crazy enough to get in there with them and that smug, little punk Brian Christopher popping up. Global, again, wonderful days. A babyface Eddie Gilbert against Bruce Prichard's crew of rotten bums plus all the fun ancillary characters like the Coast to Coast Connection, Chaz, the Wild Bunch, the Davis Brothers. To me, these were fun fun days, plus I may have been popular in school and with girls for the last time. I might have peaked in 8th grade, now that I think of it. I need a beer... Oh yeah, and an honest cat could wear Zubaz! Fun days, man.
