I was thrilled that I could book Ricky Landell, Ricky Reyes, Alex Anthony, and referee Mike Kehner from 3KWrestling. Landell was chosen by Mr. Ono after he saw him wrestle Kirby Mack at the Cauliflower Alley Club in June. Reyes became “Cuban Assassin #3” representing
Chono and First On Stage picked me to be the agent of the matches and to give instructions and finishes. I never thought that actually taking bumps and getting hurt would be easier then dealing with some of these people. I say some but really it was only four I had to shake my head at. And you have to keep in consideration that the French kid only has two months of training. But that is LA Dojo’s fault for bringing him over. It’s a shame because of how green the French guy was, Paul Tracey didn’t get a chance to show what he could do. Will that hurt him for future consideration for
The Himalayan Tiger was just awful. Maybe it’s because he doesn’t get to wrestle much but even giving him instructions was like trying to give instructions to a four year old with ADD. He was the laughing stock of the shows and I felt bad for him the first few days until I saw that he was only out for himself and not the show. Here is Chono, who has drawn more money then all of us combined, telling us to give it our best even though the house would be really small. But this guy just worried about himself and made a total ass of himself in the ring. Let’s hope these shows are not out on DVD.
Unfortunately one of the guys that were a bust was one of my 3KWrestlng guys. I will not mention his name but it’s just a shame what happened. It goes to show how far attitude can take you and how once you believe you are better then everyone it can blow up in your face. I helped this guy for years and at the end of the tour not only did he make me look bad but the ZERO1 office made me cancel him off the January tour where he was scheduled to wrestle in a major program. It’s been almost three weeks and I am still pissed off and heartbroken. Just a awful effort from a guy that I thought was better then that. Over the last seven years I have tried to help a bunch of guys and most of them let me down but I never thought this guy would do it. It’s a cruel business this pro-wrestling industry where friendships are ruined due to politics or money but this friendship is now ruined because of a lack of respect. Later I will explain to everyone that reads this how to get booked in
The last guy was a douche named Geronimo. I actually liked this kid and thought that he was getting the short end of the stick until he thought he would be cool, put on his internet muscles and bury me on his My Space page for something that I didn’t do.
This kid was one of the stinking points in practice and the first Royal Rumble. Once Chono-san saw him in practice he changed the third show match from Geronimo being in the semi-main event to the first match. He also decided to take him out of the second Royal Rumble and put him in a singles match with Osamu Namiguchi. Namiguchi is now a six-year vet but I think this kid thought he should have won which was not going to happen. He ends up having an OK seven minute match with Nami but it was due to Nami being able to make him look good. It was after that match and another awful performance by Himalayan Tiger that Chono took them both off the third show. Only the work of Kikutaro got Tiger back on the third show and I even asked both Kiku and Chono if we should put the Indian kid back on and I was told no. So what does this jackoff do? He writes a My Space blog burying me for taking him off the show! Is that what they taught him at the LADojo? I think not. Maybe next time you think about why you get taken off a show or passed up for a Japan tour maybe you should look in the mirror or watch a DVD of yourself and blame the person that really took you off the show…YOU. I hope you are happy now asshole that you got to speak your mind about something you had no idea about. And to think that Navaho Warrior and GQ Gallo didn’t get that spot when they would have been a million times better then you.
If wrestlers want to know why they are not in WWE, TNA, or a main spot in
