What would George Hackenschmidt do?
I've been reading this website with all kinds of stories about shoot fights involving wrestlers. One interesting episode involves bodybuilder Craig Titus (who recently was arrested for murder) telling off and then jumping Booker T, only to get punched out by Orlando Jordan. But here's one I really like:
George Hackenschmidt and an assortment of wrestlers were touring the UK putting on shows in various halls and arenas . George's tour finally came to Liverpool and its local theater. But the theater's owner didn't want "fake wrestlers" in his hall so he told George's promoter to takes his group and get lost. The promoter promptly told this hall owner were to go so an hour later this theater owner cam back with a mob of local boxers from a nearby gym. The result was a pitch running fist fight which went around the theater and on to the streets of Liverpool. The wrestlers apparently beat the living shit out of the boxers. At one point Mr. Hackenschmit press slammed the local boxing champ over his head and down a flight of stairs. The end result: Hackenschmit and co. were barred from performing in Liverpool and the boxers got a 5-star arse kicking of a lifetime.That's right—the Russian Lion gorilla pressed the guy, then threw him down the stairs. That is awesome.

Well that's not very nice at all. Instead I should've told you off and said that I've always really liked you and then bought you a sandwich that was way bigger than all of the sandwiches that I've bought or made for you before.
Also, wait til Tuesday, buddy!
Also, this has nothing to do with Til Tuesday, Peter.
