Jimmy Garvin might as well have had a big sign over his head saying 'THIS GUY JUST DID A LINE'

This guy shows up as the new commissioner like six weeks before Global dies. I guess we know who to blame.

They really should have done more segments interviewing and talking to fans back in the good old days when they would hope for the wrestlers to die.

Michael Hayes returns to Dallas and the Global Wrestling Federation - from the March 20th 1994 episode of GWF.

Today's wrestling magazine thread of the day is October 1996 issue of Wrestling All Stars. This is definitely NOT in the Apter/Weston family of magazines as you'll see by the 'LESBO LOVE!' blurb prominently featured on the cover.

Just beat Mass Effect Legendary Edition. I had not played any of them before. It may have taken up more of my time over the past few weeks than was healthy.

They just don't have anyone on wrestling TV cutting promos like this now. Old school.

I had to upload this to YouTube just because I've never seen a promotion go out of their way to make themselves look second rate and sad quite like this Vader rip off 'The Big Slammer' youtu.be/9DVmnRdUyVA

OH MY GOD the ring announcer

A look at Big Slam Vader in action (called simply The Slammer in Global)

"Don't you remember the 80s?" is the full summation of this Freebirds run in 1994 Global.

So everyone gets a free picture?

Ahmed Johnson was a spectacular and flamboyant crusierweight trapped in the body of a burly, 300 pound uncoordinated man.

Hadn't thought about Butter Rum Lifesavers in over a decade

Not only did Ahmed Johnson pose in short shorts, he wrestled in them!

Iceman King Parsons rapidly shoots up my list of favorite wrestlers of all time by attempting to murder Mike Davis. Mike Davis doing his 'crazy' gimmick in Global is some of the worst shit I've ever seen.

1994 Global is wonderful stuff

I think Rick Martel was trying to grow out a beard to truly cement his heel status but it wasn't working

This is how this professional wrestling show started and I think it would be fine and good if more wrestling shows in the year 2025 started like this

I have no idea how you make money on a 1994 indie show that has Demolition Ax, Jimmy Snuka, Doink the Clown (the actual real one) and Rick Martel on it plus like 14 other indie wrestlers.

It's Hat Guy! And always good to have wildly different color & quality settings on your two camera shoot.

Jack Hammer! Back when the indies were good

I'm back to working on wrestling and this July 1994 Doink the Clown vs Rick Martel match might just break my dry spell of watching rasslin.

$37 for a one hour VHS tape in 1990. That's almost $92 today. The perverts were getting fleeced.

If wishing on a star works, I would like to let everyone know I wasted mine on wishing for The Ultimate Warrior to come back to the WWF like ~6 months before he came back in 1996.

I have returned from my vacation and recovered from my post-vacation illness and now the uploads will proceed from the Major Leagues of Professional Wrestling.

If we had an opposition party in this country they'd be telling you the plan for funding SNAP in the future would include a Capital Gains tax increase, because it's not Amazon and WalMart that won't raise wages. It's the shareholders. Would create some interesting conversation!

After seeing the rabid amount of speculation over 15 seconds of someone's fucking feet from WWE, I already know what WWE booked by AI will be. Random, confusing, shit all jumbled together but with enough "mysterious & spooky" vibes the QR code scanners will spend 8 hours a day arguing over the lore.

Got sick on the trip back home but after two days I think the fever has broken and I'm mostly good. I put the fast recovery down to eating a bunch of raw garlic.

Sorry everyone, but this is one thing Twitter is always going to have over bluesky for me.

If you only fucking knew lol

Ya'll ever travel to meet someone off social media for the sole purpose of fucking their brains out? Just wondering.

Turned off the Patreon free trial for now just because I have no way to add people unless I'm at my computer and I will not see or care about any of that when I'm out of town.

Been mentally checked out of wrestling stuff the past week because I've been thinking about my vacation. I go out of town of tomorrow and come back Friday evening so don't freak out too much if you write something to me and I don't respond for a few days.

I tried The Outer Worlds on Game Pass. I played it for about 5 hours and was just BORED. What's the point of giving me "choices~!" if I don't actually care about the outcome either way?
