Here is the explanation from Beetle.

Oh brother...... one set of rules for Tigger and another set for everybody else.  What a disgrace and he doesn't have the integrity to withdraw which is what he should have done.  I ANY other player on the course does that, he is DQ'd for signing an incorrect score card. Of course the no-nothings at ESPN and those with zero history of the game will babble about it being a "bad" or "unjust" rule.....seems to me that if it was good enough for everybody else in the game than it should be good enough for Tiger. 

Furthermore, don't want to hear about it being adapted because of the HD tv stuff.  This was nothing to do with a ball moving, he clearly broke a rule and then signed an incorrect score card.  Game over.

The ball or the clubhouse bar? 

Two peas in a pod; I'm sure you know Sting & Ultimate Jim were originally tag team partners.

As for Andre, if he didn't like you, he could be one miserable prick towards you. For instance, he never liked the Iron Sheik, who was often a bit of a bully with the jobbers. He'd stretch them during matches just to take liberties with them.

Andre didn't like that Sheik did that, so he used to pin Sheik face down on the mat, sit on his back, grab his wrists, and "row" his arms in circles as if they were oars on a boat. That hurt like Hell, and is why the Iron Sheik never liked working with Andre.

Nobody really cared for Hellwig. Andre wasn't thrilled to be working with him, and their working relationship was only made worse by the fact that Jim never gave Andre a chance to do one of his favorite spots in which he would take a couple of clotheslines and then get his arms tied up in the ropes.

Well, Ultimate Jim never backed off to let Andre hit the rope spot. The idiot just kept charging Andre, then going onto the next spot in the match. This went on for several matches. One night, Andre'd had enough and decided to stick his fist out as the Ultimate Prick made his usual charge. Hellwig's face bounced off of Andre's hand, legitimately knocking him senseless.

The next night, Ultimate Jim charged very gingerly at Andre, giving him ample room and time to happily tangle his arms.

Good call! I forgot all about that.
Yes, Andre was bigger here, or at least as big as he was for the Hogan slam.

There was genuine heat between Andre and Hellwig, which may explain why Andre wasn't as helpful in their encounters.

What a HOF line-up!  And nobody had to jump off the roof to end the match.

I'll check it out. I didnt know he had ever been slammed. Of course as you know with wrestling he probably jumped a bit gave them momentum but even at that a strong feat.

I agree with you guys. I think that was a good role for Luger to assume for a while. It got him over much stronger than he would have on his own, and it provided a unique element to the Horsemen, which had not yet been established.

I just think that he should look like he's actually touched a weight at some time in his life. He looks terrible. I don't see how he can be the face of anything but a comic book.

That is about what it should be.  I could make an argument for, and wouldn't argue against Ole and Luger (yes, Luger) but that is it.

I don't know how they arrived at the decision, but the only men specifically recognized as Horsemen at the ceremony and officially inducted into the HOF are Blanchard, Arn, Ric, Dillon, and Windham.

Again, I don't understand how and/or why Vince chose those guys specifically, but they are the only men to have received rings and have their names entered on the HOF roster as Horsemen.
Apparently, just "being" a Horseman wasn't enough to qualify. Not saying I agree or disagree with it, but that's how it is.

Since the "Four Horseman" got inducted in the Hall last year, doesn't that mean that Sting, Luger, Sid, Ole Anderson, Benoit, Malenko, McMichael, et. al, are all Hall of famers, now?

I'm just curious...

How did this make you feel?




 

According to The Wrestling Observer, Ricky "The Dragon" Steamboat is longer a WWE NXT trainer and is now working with the company in the Talent Relations department.

Indeed. But, just as Rock and Hunter had to overcome their "New Generation" gimmicks, Jarrett had to do the same. And the "Double J" gimmick was no easy one to shake, especially given how well it worked for him as a mid-carder (and IC champion).

Perhaps, it was the whole Debra thing as Jarrett's heat (post "Double J") came mainly because of his treatment of her. McMahon probably thought he couldn't be a big heel without her (especially since the fans loved her, in spite of Jarrett).

I just read that Rick was the one who found his sons body. Shit, what a nightmare.
