2008 Running Pro Wrestling Thread

Could be a number of people. Didn't WWE have a Georgia-based development territory?

 

That whole news report is ridiculous, until we get a name. It could likely be a development wrestler.

 

They had Deep South, but I think that was further south, like Birmingham or whereabouts. And a development guy wouldn't have the money to buy his own house, certainly not one he's had for at least five years, since there's a 2004 WWE document among the pieces of evidence.

 

Wasn't Scott Steiner around in 2004?

It's terrible to throw a name out there completely unconfirmed. But hey, he seems as logical a guess as any.

 

I thought that too, since I think Steiner was near the end of his WWE run at that point. I have a really hard time believing he juices, though. I just ... can't accept that.

 

OK, that was fuckin funny.

Andrew "Test" Martin,33, was arrested yesterday morning on charges of a DUI and driving without a license when an officer believed he was recklessly driving at 10:30 a.m. in the Tampa area.

The Tampa Tribune has a story (www.tbo.com) saying an off duty office noticed his driving and called a Florida Highway Patrol trooper who responded. The police report stated Martin's eyes were glassy and bloodshot and his speech was slurred. He didn't smell of alcohol, but failed a field sobreity test and was taken to jail, where he spent all day until being released Sunday night on $500 bail.

My, my, my ... from banging Stacy Keibler, Kelly Kelly and (a skinnier) Stephanie McMahon to being Big Bubba's cell bitch for a night. How the mighty have fallen.

 

According to Meltzer, it's Mike Knox.

 

Not a good day for men associated with Kelly Kelly.
Still, I'd like to take my chances.

 

If you're going down, you might as well go down the right way!

 

Update on the Knox story from Meltzer's wrestlingobserver.com

WWE has released a statement saying that four different pro wrestlers lived in the Locust Grove, GA, home that the steroids were found in, saying only one of the four is still with the company. They said the performer (who would be Mike Knox) has denied to both the police and to the WWE that the items found belonged to him.

The steroids were found in one of two shoe boxes. The other shoe box had pay stubs and a contract for Mike Hettinga, which is Knox's real name.

 

Fantastic in-ring confrontation between HBK and Batista.
