    Any other pro wrestlers read the boards?

    C'mon I know there's a host of you that probably do. Dont need to use your working name if you dont want to.

    Me, retired, 92-2000

You've might have saw me get my 'ASS' kicked on sat morn wwf tv..Early to mid 90's..But what killed me and all the other losers??....the infamous WWF/WCW ratings war whci began in the early 90's..But I'm noone famous..I've just recently started up again after a 3 yr layoff and plan on hitting the indy scene hard,..

    I used to want to be involved in wrestling but not so much anymore. Those guys have a tough,tough life. Your never home,living out of hotels and travel bags, trying to train and stay fit on little sleep b/ of your schedule. Eventually pain killers, uppers, and heavy steroid use become almost a necessity to stay in the game. I know a couple guys in wrestling, not going to mention their names, but their lives are not what we think they're cracked up to be. I think the WWE went the wrong route w/ the story line soap opera garbage and many of their themes. Wrestling used to be something children could watch and get excited about. Now, no young kid is going to have the attention span to sit through 40 min of tough talk and drama, they want to see the matches!! The way the federation flaunts women in sleezy outfits is kind of inappropriate as well for the younger crowd. Now the only ones who seem to watch wrestling religiously are adults, or a large crowd of trailer trash. Too bad it wasnt how it used to be. And whats w/ wrestlers acting like softies now when they're not in the ring? "Trish, I dont want you to go out there, no please....dont go, wah wah wah" What ever happened to" I'M COMING DOWN THERE, TO KICK YOUR ASS!!!!!" mY .02

    Sorry but i dont belive you wrestled vader. Or anyone in the WWE/WWF The term would be Jobber.. Jobroni ect sqwasher.. hmm . As far as the other guy who said he couldnt call himself a pro.. i think you should try doing this for a few weeks. I had some friends who thought they were real bad asses get in the ring, cage fighters greco roman guys ect.. the shit hurts.. and if you look it up.. if he made 1 cent for wrestleing he was a pro thats what a pro means it means you get paid to do it, its your profession. Alot of guys wrestle for years and never get paid.. so your friend if he made 14k must have been pretty over. Its not a life where alot of people are going to get rich.. its a life that people choose becouse they enjoy doing it. Making people laugh. getting people pumped ect.

    Don't feel sorry for what you believe in dude...I'm glad you have your opinion about that...Pin me/pay me..that was my job...I have no worries about your thoughts.. they(wwf) paid well and even covered traveling expenses...By no means was it my full-time gig but had to miss work on tues and wed cause thats when they did the 4 hr long taping sessions for the weekends to come...and as far as the term 'Jobroni' that name only came up after 'the Rock' brought it up in the later part of the 90's and by that time 'jobbers' were long gone because it was all about ratings...Hmmmm......

    Yep MPA you just confirmed my statement. The rock had nothing to do with creating jobroni #1 it was a saying that has been around since the early 80's mabey even before that.. its a form of the word jobber. As far as the WWF paying for your flight.. or anything but a sample platter and one day payday that is horsehit too. They only fly the stars around they get local guys in every city they go to when they need jobbers. A jobber = somone that comes in and does the job, takes the bumps. gets too look like shit to put over the star. This is the last post i will make about this but the only thing i smmmmmmmmmelllllllllllll is bullshit.

    yo...whoever has wreslted in any sort of a circut i have a HUGE amount of respect for. a few boys in my gym in canada train and wreslte around atlantic canada with a small federation. one of them wrestled on heat once but did not get hired by vince i guess...there are just so many wreslters and only one show its a horrible situation.

    but you guys bust your ass day in and day out and THEN train to get better at it and THEN train in the gym to look your best and also to make sure you can put on the best show. (its not all about the physique to these boys).

    its a hard life and i think you are appreciated greatly and respected by those who love what you do.

    The term jibroni actually started out as "jobrone." According to Terry Funk, who I got to pick the brain of once, that term has been around since he was a kid watching his dad Dory Sr.

    The term is a compound of job and brother. Jobbrother or Jobrone.

    New York will fly some people who are not under contract if they are taking a look at you. I toured in 1997 for almost three months with them before they decided I wasn't what they wanted. My airfare was taken care of. Rental car and hotel was not. I was also paid a minimum $150 per match but was eligible for the show pool which made the cars and hotel much easier to pay for.

    Normally for TV tapings they used to only use local talent. Back in the early 90's when I started the payoff for a jobrone was $300. I worked one prior TV taping against Ludvig Borga and was paid that amount.

    I've never heard of the word 'Jobroni' before him and i've been watching a loooong time during the 80's.Up north the public had no idea of what was happening down south if thats were the term came from.#2 who said anything about flying???please find my words that say the wwf flew me in.!!!!.. I said traveling expenses!!!..we drove everywhere cities, states close by,..they wanted as many peeps in 1 car as we could able fit.And they reimbursed us for those traveling expenses including gas, hotels..Our main contact guy was Tony Garea.Pay in the early 90's was 150 plus expenses, that eventually went up to 250 plus expenses...But thats cool Trannnnnzzy. I'm not on here to get into a board arguement or to try and fool anyone...I've been on here far to long too worry about petty stuff..

    As amatter of fact You can actually see me in a movie..how do I prove this..rent a movie made in late 94 or 95. movie is called 'Born to be Wild'...Its about this kid and this gorilla...roughly 20-22 min into the movie a security guard is watching one of my wwf matches on tv *in the movie*. I'm in for about 2 seconds and that time I was wrestling Crush and Yokozuna when they were a tag team...now how do I prove that guy is me?? I can post one of my promotion pictures on here ofcourse faceless but I have the same outfit on in my picture as in this movie..I know..the same outfit doesn't mean shit, but Its one in the same...And believe me why would I be on this board for over 4+ yrs and lie about this..I'd rather lie about cycles, and chicks and stuff like that...Anyways whatever it is its all 'Kool in the Gang'

    i wrestled in the UK from 2001-2004, professionally. made no serious money, was at college at the time. still intend on going for it properly sumtime soon, moving out to the states or canada, but my life took afew different turns and wrestling was put on the back burner. i was 15 when i turned pro, then had shoulder surgery when i was 17, havent gotten back to it properly since. shoulder is 100% and i never stopped the bodybuilding, so now look 10 times better at 20 years old.

    Yeah Deca . It's all fake. No one ever gets hurt. The chairs aren't real. The falls on the concrete? Ah hell, we're taught to fall properly, it really doesn't hurt.

    Damn those pro wrasslers. Total waste of a form of entertainment.

    Haven't watched wrestling seriously since WCW was bought out. I used to love it, but the WWE soap opera thing is garbage imo.

    this guy is clueless.. i live my gimmick and i wrestle... and id put up 1k US that id beat your ass in less then 2 min.. no pinning, no tapping just knock you the **** out till you couldnt function any longer. I wrestled free style fought mixed martial arts in tournys boxed and have done my share of street/bar fighting and i am way more brused and beaten after my matchs wrestling then i ever have been in any of that. Its also harder work. So you dont know what the **** you are talking about.
