Saw this in the Philippine Star

 

Mick Foley ‘live’ in Manila

FUNFARE By Ricardo F. Lo

The Philippine Star 01/10/2006

 

Fans (this one definitely not included) of wrestling to whom the name Mick Foley rings a thousand bells will jump with joy to know that their heavyweight (literally and figuratively) idol is coming to Manila – "live!" – on Jan. 21 to 23 to promote the forthcoming WWE (World Wrestling Entertainment) Raw Live Tour slated at the Araneta Coliseum on Feb. 24 and 25.

 

During his three-day whirlwind visit, Foley will make the rounds of radio and TV stations, and make personal appearances in malls. Wrestling fans may also catch a glimpse of him during a special motorcade.

 

The Big Dome show (which also features wrestling stars like WWE Champion John Cena, Intercontinental Champion Ric Flair, World Tag Team Champions Big Show and Kane, and Women’s Champion Trish Stratus) is so popular that, I heard, tickets are already (well, almost!) sold out.

 

Here are more facts about Foley for the sake of clueless, non-wrestling fans like yours truly:

 

Foley, who became a professional wrestler in 1983, is known for three distinct gimmicks, namely: Cactus Jack, a maniacal and blood-thirsty Western outlaw; Mankind, a tortured soul who hides behind a leather mask and inflicts pain on his opponents to ease his memories of a dark past; and Dude Love, a swinging "hip cat" and weenie.

 

He formed "The Rock n’ Sock Connection," one of the most popular tag teams in WWE history, with The Rock (now a Hollywood star twice featured in this section’s Conversations with Ricky Lo). The duo went on to win the World Tag Team Championship thrice. Foley has captured the WWE Championship thrice (once in 1998 and twice in 1999).

 

Noted for hardcore matches, Foley has "souvenirs" to show for it, including eight concussions, part of his ear ripped off, second-degree burns from a C-4 explosion and more than 300 stitches/scars.

 

Don’t look now but Foley is also a successful author. His autobiography, Have A Nice Day, reached No. 1 on the New York Times’ best-seller list. He has also written two children’s holiday books, Christmas Chaos and Halloween Hi-Jinx. All the profits from another children’s book, Tales From Wrescal Lane, were donated by Foley to the building of a school in the Philippines. Since 1996, he has sponsored the education of two Filipino kids, one of whom graduated from the program in 2001.

 

You see, behind, rather inside, a hulk is a little boy.

 

 

 

 

I'm gonna get my books signed!!!!! :boo:

INJURY UPDATES ON WWE WORLD CHAMP BATISTA AND WWE CRUISERWEIGHT CHAMP KID KASH

 

The belief among those I've spoken to is that WWE World champion Batista suffered a torn triceps at last night's house show, an injury he's suffered in the past that's kept him out of action. Batista had been working through a lat injury in his back already, and the timing of the triceps tear was bad. One has to feel for Batista as over the last year, he's worked really hard to improve his game and earn a main event position. While on the way there, he dealt with a lot of personal hardships as his wife had been suffering from cancer at the time. Now that he's made it to the top of the card, he's racking up injuries left and right.

 

WWE Cruiserweight champion Kid Kash did indeed break his arm due to a stiff kick from Tony Santarelli while working for WWE developmental territory Deep South Wrestling last Thursday. There were some who were hoping it was just a bad bruise but we've confirmed it was in fact a break. At the Smackdown house shows this weekend, they did a strange deal where the injury was announced and a match was held to crown a new Cruiserweight champion. The match then ended with a DQ, so Kash was ruled still Cruiserweight champion

breaking news: ni-relenquish ni batista ang wwe heavyweight championship sa isang house show ng smackdown today. declared vacant ang championship at sa next smackdown magkakaroon ng match para diyan.

 

re: juventud.... di talaga siya tumatagal sa isang federation. tamago can correct me, pero tinanggal na rin iyan dati sa wcw, pero dahil sa isang incident sa wcw australian tour na nag-end up na kinulong ata siya. sa ecw din di siya tumagal.

Here's something new.....

 

just saw this on the net.....

 

 

Bastista was placed on injury and since he could not represent the title GM Theodore Long ordered a Battle Royal for all the wrestlers of SD. Knowing that Kurt Angle was frmo RAW he still came in but was beaten up by SD stars...in the end part of the match only Angle and Henry was left...

 

Angle was damn good enough than Henry and picked up the win to become the new Heavyweight Champ! :boo:
