Just cause it's a local event, Rick Flair won and won't retire/disappear
any time soon.

Maj,  the wrestling conference is still alive and well. The machine it's on
changed buildings so I think it's got a new node address. Yup in out and
out brawl from start to finish, Flair won it.  He won the match after
beating the crap out of Vadar with a chair outside the ring. Final moves
were beat him with the chair toss him back in the ring, go for a pin,
Harley goes to the top rope to drop an elbow on Flair, Flair moves,
Race nails Vadar with the elbow, Flair goes for and gets an inside
cradle for the win....

Austin beat Dustin for the US title, The Nasty got disqualified due to
outside interfence from Missy who was letting it all hang out and Rude
defeated Big Bossman with a sunshine flip after taking a beating...

mike...

I'll see if I can mail you something to help you access the conference

    Yo, TTom, ya don't have to apologize for posting wrastlin' info.  I,
    for one, find Pro Wrestling *at least* as entertaining as NFL football,
    and certainly leaps and bounds better than [gasp!] soccer.  Certainly
    the athleticism is just as entertaining (I've yet to see Jerry Rice or
    Pele' leap from the top of a turnbuckle, fly through the air like
    Superman, and land on somebody's chest) and we don't have to worry
    about somebody becoming paralyzed or (completing the soccer parallel)
    getting kicked in the chin.
    
    Now, on the negative side, the outcomes are clearly defined before the
    match begins, but isn't that kindof a welcome relief to the flip-a-coin
    "parity" of the NFL?  [yes]  Let's face it folks, in the world we live
    in we all could use a little predictability; a little clear definition
    of "good" vs. "evil".

    	I miss the old days in rasslin' when they used to have to check
    their stilettos at the door and the pre-match meal consisted of a
    quart of bourbon.  Crowds were more fun too.  Mostly made up of
    pre-release types and winos instead of yuppies and their kids like it
    is today.

    Rat on Slash,
    
    One of them upstanding wrasslin' fans got citizen of the year by
    trying to stab Black Jack Mulligan with a shive a while back.
    That fan could spot a phony a mile away.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

As of Thursday afternoon 11/18, node WWF, and, therefore, this notesfile,
will become unavailable.  The system is being brought down, backed up,
packed up, and being moved from DSG in Westford to MRO in Marlboro this
weekend.  If all goes well, it will be available again Monday morning, 11/22.

WWF will have a new DECnet address - 7.429

Word is that MRO will have a site power shutdown sometime during the long
holiday weekend; please consider this your notice that WWF will be unavailable
over that weekend.


My apologies for the short notice.
