A lot of you will scroll by this easily but feeling the need to post this as I believe it's a strong FYI if you choose to follow me:

I'm a heterosexual male who's all(y) for LGBTQIA+ rights so any homophobic or transphobic discussion is not welcome here at all.

“I Am Your Champion:” the Life & Death of Wrestler Gino Hernandez is officially published!

I’m so excited to share Gino’s story with all of you! He was a remarkable performer who deserves so much more recognition.

The book is available from Amazon, B&N, and @McFarlandCoPub!

@SWManor I had a friend who had a very bad illness and in putting two and two together, I figured she had Covid and the very last message I sent her was "You don't have Covid do you?" About 3 days later her daughter posted a memorial for her. :(

@xWorldChampionx @tonyrichards4 @BoniLBlackstone The best person, to me anyway,that ever blended comedy and serious was Jimmy Valiant. He played a lot until it was time to fight and then you had to worry.

@petinfome A real dustbunny

[Albert Gourrier 🌍 @CatchThePinfall]

@ginagraps I love the Elegance about it :)

[Albert Gourrier 🌍 @CatchThePinfall]

@xWorldChampionx @tonyrichards4 @BoniLBlackstone Don't get me started on the Bushwhackers

[Albert Gourrier 🌍 @CatchThePinfall]

@NatbyNature Kinda appropo that he gets a bridge named after him as he acted as an excellent bridge in training people to be some of the best wrestlers ever

[Albert Gourrier 🌍 @CatchThePinfall]

@tonyrichards4 @BoniLBlackstone Serious Koko was awesome. I feel the same way about Ron Killings. I hate his current "playing stupid" character but I love him as a serious heel threat. Was hoping for a lot coming after his Capitol Punishment match with Cena.
