A place to chat about anything thats not football related. Most of the threads in here are completely pointless which is why people keep coming back and back. As the forum title suggests, feel free to make any post you want on any subject you wish. It also has Adult jokes (so be warned) which is the other reason people keep coming back.

On Sunday night, James Helwig, better known to wrestling fans as the ultimate Warrior, was indicted to the WWE hall of game after a long running feud with the organisation.
On Monday during a televised event he said the following;
No WWE talent becomes a legend on their own. Every man's heart one day beats its final beat. His lungs breathe their final breath. And if what that man did in his life makes the blood pulse through the body of others and makes them believe deeper in something larger than life then his essence, his spirit, will be immortalized. By the story tellers, by the loyalty, by the memory of those who honor him and make the running the man did live forever. You, you, you, you, you, you are the legend makers of Ultimate Warrior. In the back I see many potential legends. Some of them with warrior spirits. And you will do the same for them. You will decide if they lived with the passion and intensity. So much so that you will tell your stories and you will make them legends, as well. I am Ultimate Warrior. You are the Ultimate Warrior fans. And the spirit of the Ultimate Warrior will run forever!
Less than 24 hours later, he was dead.
Rather eerie how true his words were to become.

Saw him live in action at Wrestlemania a good many years back, a consummate professional, fan-favorite and one of the most colorful and recognized names the industry ever produced. Best wishes to his immediate family at this difficult time.
That's another name gone, after Rick Rude, Benoit, Ed Guerrero, Yokozuna, Big Boss Man etc in recent years. Another black day for the industry, and their legend lives on.
Didn't see it mentioned elsewhere on the pages don't think, but last week the Undertaker lost his undefeated streak at Wrestlemania to Lesnar in New Orleans. First time it's occured in 23 years now since his first 'Mania appearance.
Great shock to some, and no, didn't see it coming either.
