Like Olympus above the Serengeti
I get it to a degree; Monty Brown wasn’t having thirty minute classics back in 2005 in Total Nonstop Action Wrestling. I can sort of sympathize with the Powers That Were wanting Brown to take more indy dates, to get better at wrestling, before they would look at strapping him up with the NWA World…

Chef Recommends: The Big Texan
Just a quickie for a Friday afternoon… legend has it that, on a tour of All Japan circa 1996, Dory Funk Jr. and his wife Marti went out to dinner with Giant Baba and HIS wife, the (in)famous Matoko Baba. Legend further has it that Marti was said to opine, during this dinner, that maybe…

A Death in the Family
It was a long time ago; we are talking 1988 or early 1989… but I distinctly recall sitting at the kitchen table. Mom walked by, telling me that she and Dad were leaving for the weekend, and that I needed to be good while they were gone. I nodded, picturing eating ice cream and watching…

Men of Iron
“I prefer fact to fantasy, no matter how inviting,” Stark smirked at the apparition before him. The otherworldly face of the unknowable Goddess twisted into a sneer. “You have no belief in anything, then,” she thundered. “You are a hollow, soulless being who can never achieve transcendence.” Tony Stark never met a challenge he couldn’t…
