Good day and welcome to “Balistik Blabber”, my little corner of wrestling opinions, suggestions and wishes. Today I’ll be talking about something serious… it’s about the anti-wrestling movement… specifically, a book that recently came out with a very, VERY long title… behold:
”Ring of Hell: The Story of Chris Benoit and the Fall of the Pro Wrestling Industry”
This book contains a gold mine of scandals within the wrestling business, including the following which I found and edited from “The Score Boards Sports Forum” due to some very grisly detail. The complete and unedited list of items can be found in this link:
WARNING! This list contains very crude content! Read at your own risk! Parental guidance is strongly urged.
1. What life really was like at the New Japan dojo during the company’s peak, including countless stories of outrageous hazing, violence, psychological and sexual torture.
2. The behind-the-scenes story on Kensuke Sasaki beating New Japan trainee Hiromitsu Gompei to death.
3. The most coherent and well-sourced profile of Antonio Inoki (a Japanese wrestler who Hulk Hogan once KO’d in the ring with the “Axe Bomber” stiff lariat) being a somewhat crazy and gullible person, being fooled to believe in the existence of treasure so much he almost hired a search crew for it.
4. An account of Riki Choshu & Masa Saito being completely rude and brutal including a situation where Masa Saito beat the stuffings out of Vader for trash talking with him… this led to Saito to knock Vader out for real in the middle of the ring and having the referee count Vader out…
5. Stories about Benoit being very violent towards new trainees and Jushin Liger randomly punching rookies in the face for the heck of it.
6. The most in-depth, grisly, unbelievable behind-the-scenes expose of the role of the Yakuza in Japanese pro wrestling and countless stories about them including the FMW disaster.
1. Paul Heyman talks about his drug use…
2. The greatest catalogue ever of ECW/WCW backstage debauchery, including new Hall and Nash stories. Includes information on how many drugs and groupies were being abused and how absolutely insane everyone went.
3. The REAL story of the Kevin Sullivan versus Radicalz situation.
4. A previously unpublished story about how Bischoff started Nitro to avenge himself on a rib played against him by an unnamed, anonymous devilish promoter.
5. The bar-none most uncensored look at modern-day Vince McMahon, his outlandish behavior, and his bizarre relationship with Stephanie.
6. The first behind-the-scenes, uncensored, completely honest look at what it’s like on the WWE Creative Team, including interviews from a half dozen former writers on the record including Heyman.
7. That longtime WWE Head Writer Dave Lagana fired in early 2008 for repeatedly extorting sexual favors out of the wrestlers, male and female alike, with the alleged knowledge of WWE management — a scandal that has been successfully kept from the press until now.
8. That Vince McMahon recently fired a heavily injured wrestler for seeking medical help — calling him a “*****” who wasn’t worthy of being a WWE wrestler and creating a neurotic fear of rehabilitating injuries within the WWE roster.
9. Some great McMahon family stories, including the account of writer Dan Madigan driving in the McMahon limo… apparently, he watched Vince very gently cradle and snuggle Stephanie to sleep in his arms, then fall asleep himself snoring… it’s not over ‘coz he suddenly catches HHH looking at them drool unto each other and snore into each other’s faces with a mixture of utter repulsion and spectacular triumph.
10. That multiple sources claim Dean Malenko was allegedly Eddie’s drug hookup?
1. An entire chapter delving into the life of Kevin Sullivan (Benoit’s WCW “rival”), including his many secrets… how he used Nancy to get booking power… eyewitness stories of his drug abuse debauchery… how he beat Nancy, and how he convinced Nancy to pretend to cheat on him for the show… and then beat her until she finally decided to actually cheat on him for real.
2. Publisher PR. “Despite regularly passing “comprehensive” World Wrestling Entertainment drug tests, Chris Benoit’s psychological meltdown was partially caused by an enormous drug habit that he maintained for the majority of his WWE tenure. On a daily basis, Benoit haphazardly mixed huge dosages of amphetamines, steroids, painkillers, psychiatric drugs, and alcohol — with catastrophic effect on his psyche.”
3. PR: “Chris Benoit had displayed dangerously violent and sadistic behavior as early as 1987, and over the
