Watching Bruce Pritchard be a jackass boss on WWE: Unreal gave me PTSD of all the horrible bosses I have had over the past 50 years.

Fantasma is the 2025 Cauliflower Alley Lucha Libre Award recipient. He started wrestling in 1979 and has wrestled all over the world, including Japan and the Dallas Sportatorium, but is universally known and loved throughout Mexico as "El Duende de Camina" (The Walking Ghost).

100 men versus a gorilla.
As a former wrestling booker, I’m gonna let the gorilla go over.
I have more faith that the gorilla will show up for the next show and do what I tell him.
I can’t trust the 100 guys.

Sorry to hear of the passing of Osamu Nishimura. Larry Doyle and I had him on a card we promoted in the 1990s against Al Snow. He was a great wrestler. Here is the whole show. Nishimura-Snow is around 1:25. youtu.be/Hh7oxxGSXC8?...

The Rock wants Cody’s soul. I find nothing wrong with that since souls have been missing from the wrestling business for decades. :)

I got new glasses on January 1st. I returned them on Saturday because I don’t like what I’ve seen so far this year.

When I produced wrestling shows I was really good at holding the boy’s wallets and watches when they got into ringside brawls.

Well look who is here.

I’ve run across him often in my research of San Bernardino wrestling. He was a journeyman, former college All-American. Appears to have been fast, used dropkicks, tackles and scissors. Was popular with the audience and when I first started going to CAC in the 1990s the old guard spoke of him fondly.

We have free hot chocolate where I work. You know what it tastes like? Free hot chocolate from where I work. It has a marshmallow in it that looks like a wayward Lucky Charm.

I know this is trivial, but since Seinfeld is old and cranky, I’m looking to make some money in the mundane.

That is good to hear.

Hello.

Here is hoping that Blue Sky is a little more peaceful, artistic, and civil.

I’m an old guy. Let’s keep things simple.
