Off to Calgary


Time to go to Calgary, this is going to be fun. Leave some comments dammit!!

Apparently Kenta Kobashi has a tumor on his kidney that may be cancerous... Man I really hope everything works out for him. He is great at what he does.

Kudos and Big-Ups....


To my man Scott Monson (seen here.) You're doing a great job my man.

3BTV

3BTV returns... Eddie Guerrero in ROH. Enjoy.



This makes me sad....


I read this today and the optimism I had for ECW has quickly faded....

From PWInsider's hotline last night:
A meeting was held before last night's Smackdown/ECW taping with Vince McMahon, Kevin Dunn, and Paul Heyman. The decision has been made to pretty much break away from all the old ECW characters, ideas, and style of booking. The new plan is to make the show a full fledged third C brand of the WWE.

Vince McMahon was really let down by the reaction of the crowd at the ECW Arena house show, last week's 15% ratings drop, and the so far low ticket sales for the Smackdown/ECW tapings especially for the July 4th taping at the Wachovia Center. Those things were said to be huge factors in this decision.Paul Heyman now has even less control over the product while Tommy Dreamer has none. Heyman did script last night's show but alot of it was re-written by the WWE writers. Also for the first two weeks Heyman was in charge of running the shows backstage but that all changed last night as the show was ran pretty much like the usual for Raw and Smackdown.

A decision has been made starting with last night's taping to only fly in the ECW wrestlers that are scripted to work on the show. Only for the house show events will the entire roster be flown in. Also the old ECW referees are expected to get the axe very soon like former ECW ring announcer Stephen D'angelous did last week.

Kurt Angle will be taking time off very soon. As of late, Kurt Angle has been walking around like "the walking dead". People say that he's hurting all over all the time, but being injured isn't what he's taking time off for, and instead it's because of some sort of personal issue.Kurt Angle stayed totally to himself at the last ECW show Tuesday night and hasn't been sociable at all with anyone in ECW. He also showed up very late for the ECW show at the ECW Arena. They speculate that Kurt Angle is now looking at everything like this just isn't worth his time anymore (being in ECW that is).

I just finished downloading episode #3, will watch it tommorow after work but now I am losing hope rapidly.

Some card updated for NoC IV are up over at PWAwrestling.ca.

So I have made the executive decision and I'm not going to renew bigbadboris.com. Everything I can do on the site I can do on the blog and I kind of like it. I know I am a huge hypocite because when blogs first came out and they were a big thing I made fun of all the people that had them, but fuck it... They're cool.

The only thing that I can't do on the blog is all the downloads I've been doing over the years. To everyone that downloaded a match or a song or video or whatever, I hope you enjoyed it and I opened your eyes to something different.

The site should be down in the next day or 2.

Lunch Time

Lunch time, and what better way to spend it then in the nasty back room eating spaghetti and writing.

More rumors about Pronger continue to swirl, The latest one comes from an un-named source (we'll call him Scott) who says Chris cheated on his wife and got a girl pregnant and his wife left town.

Work is stressing me out, can't wait for the weekend and a couple of fun days off.

Photos of the Week


Vittorino, How I love thee...









Jesus... You never looked better.

Was Pronger a Bad Boy?

Rumor has it Pronger wants out of the city of Champions because he spent a little "quality" time with someone from City TV. Purely speculation....

Iced Capp


The cool thing about the blog is I can update at work... Iced Capp rules!

Dusty Rhodes DVD


I just finished watching the Dusty Rhodes dvd, it was pretty good but nothing blow-away. I think they could have gone into a bit more details, they seemed to gloss over a lot but I guess if you're going to tell the whole story it would take a long time. It'll take me forever to get through all the extras. Sometimes I think WWE goes a little overboard with the extras on these DVD's, who has time to watch them all?

What the hell is going on in Oiler land? A mere week after the end of am amazing playoff run, the city holds a afternoon celebration where a whopping 5 players show up. Kevin Lowe calls the playoff run a failure, and then the supposed saving grace Chris Pronger asks for a trade after one season of a 5 year deal... What the fuck.

RAW was a fairly fun show last night, the dX McMahon impersonation was fun although a little long. Also, they did a good job of creating a big match atmosphere for Cena and RVD but damn is Cena horrible... The main event of ECW tonight is Angle vs. RVD, on paper sounds pretty damn good to me.

Listened to a bit of the new live Counting Crows record, it's awesome. I think it's a little funny for a band that has only put out a handful of albums to put out a second live album. But if it's good it's good I guess.

Really looking forward to heading to Clagary this weekend for my sisters wedding. Chantal made a cake that I'm sure is going to be awesome. Only a few more days of work to go.

This just in, Edmonton will have a WHL team for the 2007/2008 season. That's cool... I wonder if they'll last longer then the Ice.

Alex Tanguay


So at the draft The Flames traded Jordan Leopold and a couple of draft picks for Alex Tanguay. I really liked Leopold but they definetly need some help up front for Iggy. I'm excited about this, when does next season start??

ECW Episode #2


Just finished watching ECW on Sci Fi episode 2 and it was much better then the shit that was in the first show. They fixed the look by taking the lights down and trying to give it back that old school look and the matches were pretty solid. This may turn out to be a good show yet.

The first one...


Well, BigBadBoris.com will be going down for a while untill I can get my act together and renew the domain. It will happen soon but in the mean time I will use this to babble. I may keep it when the site comes back because I can update this from wherever...
