Triple H’s WWE career went to the next level in 1999, and for a time, many fans considered him the best pro wrestler in the world. However, many of his detractors at the time would accuse him of taking elements of his gimmick and even look from ECW’s Shane Douglas. Additionally, some felt that Triple H’s nickname, “The Game,” was in response to Douglas calling himself “The Franchise.” However, while discussing Triple H during this time period on his popular podcast, Jim Ross has played this down, although he would acknowledge he’d heard the comparisons. Douglas, real name Troy Martin, broke...

There was a time in the 1980s when Jesse Ventura was one of the most popular members of the WWE – then the WWF – Universe. He was a championship-caliber in-ring worker, a fantastic talker, and is still widely regarded as the borderline prototype for a color commentator in the booth, especially for ex-wrestlers looking for a new lease on their careers.

Like all pro wrestling promotions, AEW is always looking to bolster its roster with new talent. And now, after he worked two Collision tapings in Canada early this year, Fightful Select has reported that 23-year-old Tommy Billington has signed with AEW. However, it should be noted that the report notes it isn’t known whether he received a full-time contract or is on a per-appearance deal, which is typical for many unestablished talents when they first join AEW. For those unaware, Billington is the nephew of The Dynamite Kid, who worked for WWF, Stampede Wrestling, All Japan, and New Japan, often alongside his cousin Davey Boy Smith. And while he had a terrible reputation due to purposely injuring opponents and bullying those weaker than him in the locker room, he is still regarded as one of the most influential wrestlers ever. Sadly, his legendary career would be cut short while he was in his 30s due to injury, and after being confined to a wheelchair for decades, he passed away in 2018 on his 60th birthday.

Last week, pro wrestling lost a genuine legend when former WCW wrestler and booker Kevin Sullivan passed away following a three-month battle with illness. And now, during this week’s episode of Raw, WWE Hall of Famer Paul Ellering of The Final Testament would pay tribute to his friend and colleague by painting Sullivan’s trademark X on his forehead, which was originally inspired by the wicked cult leader, Charles Manson. Up to three months ago, it was believed that Sullivan was in good health as he regularly attended fan conventions and had his own podcast. However, following what was described as a “devastating accident,” he would be hospitalized, and a GoFundMe was launched to help him pay his medical bills. This would see names like Tony Khan, Chris Jericho, Cody Rhodes, Mick Foley, DDP, and Jim Cornette all make significant contributions. Yet, despite being able to pay for the medical care he needed, the news would sadly break on August 9 that Sullivan had passed away due to complications from a blood clot.
