Shoot Fights

Post by scooter »

@WolfofWords is going to be flabbergasted...I've posted two wrestling topic videos in a row. This one is on shoots, which I'm a bit impressed I remembered correctly as a slang term.

This has been another bit of brain shrapnel from...

Yeah, some people were just known for being rough for real in the ring. It's unprofessional but I think justified if in self-defense. Usually, if somebody is working too stiff, you can make them stop by hitting them back hard. They usually back off but not always.

The Mass Transit Incident
Eric Kulas worked an ECW show where he pissed off New Jack who was notorious for being hyper-violent and with a bad temper. Eric Kulas nearly bled to death. [youtube]https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mass_Tran ... wrestling)[/youtube]


Mick Foley's first match with the WWF was a tag match against the British Bulldogs who ended up hitting him hard enough to dislocate his jaw.

In the middle of a melee, JBL beat the stuffing out of The Blue Meanie, leaving him bloody. All because Meanie had talked about him online.
