Everytime I am on the computer I find myself somehow wandering over here and reading random messages about people's signs and throwing notebooks and what not. I figured if I'm going to do this, I might as well make myself useful.

What I propose is an "Ask the wrestler" column. While I may not have all the answers, there are others (Mav) who might.

You can ask any questions you want. They can be focused on me, wrestling, indy wrestling, or whatever ridiculous topic you wanna muster up.

If you dont wanna do it, thats fine. I figured I would offer.

Hey, what's wrong with random messages about signs?! JUST KIDDING!!!! That is a fantastic idea. I don't know why somebody didn't think of it sooner! I have a lot of questions I'd like answered! Great idea!

Question for YOU Randy - where the HELL have you been the last few months? Dan Barry had 2 outstanding matches, which in my opinion, were probably in the top 3 MOTN's of each of those shows. I guess you are too busy reading posts about Ghost's chair and notebook. Cool

I think its a cool idea Dan. Maybe some of these comedians will ask some real questions. I did an interview w you, so I can't think of anything new to ask now, other than maybe...if you were a show promoter for one night, what would be the first thing youd be sure of regarding the show, paying talent, advertising, fans satisfaction w the venue, prices, etc. solid match lineup. etc?

My question to Dan:
Would a 12" screwdriver shoved up Gray Ghost's rectum do permanent damage?

Well Randolph, I'm Dan Barry. You're question was frivolous considering my name is attached to the post.
If your question was, "What have you done?"
I am a 25 year old originally from Long Island but now residing in New Paltz, NY. I have been a pro wrestler for 7 years and was trained by Mikey Whipwreck, Mike Mayhem, and John Curse. I have wrestled all across the northeast and won a few titles along the way. My signature move is the Irish Car Bomb.
The wrestler I try to emulate the most is the Yeti.
Next time be a bit more specific.

Maybe a bit too specific. I had my right ear reattached once, perhaps he too was in a car accident.

Well you can't really think of one more than the others. When promoting your show, you need to have all of those and more on your mind at all times.
Id start witha building. Because without that, a show idea is useless. THen a solid line-up, but I'd want to be able to afford that line-up before the show starts. I'd then go to advertising. I could have Hulk Hogan in New Paltz, but if no one knew about it, it would be useless. First thing I'd do is get a local school involved, maybe donate a few tickets, create a raffle sort of thing. Then I'd flyer the town and neighboring towns in and around schools. Then I'd go to the internet. With a good enough show, the fans will come.
There is a lot more to running a wrestling show, including having a ring, dj, referees, ring announcers, in ny i need a license, insurance, mats, guardrails, a doctor etc..
Without one of these pieces, the whole show falls apart so like I said, you need to consider everything as a whole.

Yes. You're a sick individual. Here's a website for you to consider.
http://www.angermgmt.com/
There are other websites I could send you to, but they aren't safe for work, or children. Nor are they remotely relevant to Indy Wrestling or Dan Barry.

Finkel is Einhorn, Einhorn is Finkel.

In Ace Ventura: Pet Detective he was the reason for a Dolphin Super Bowl loss with "The kick heard round the world." He stole Miami's Dolphin and it was up to Ace and his wacky antics to find the culprit. He found out that the female lead detective on the case had actually been finkel pre-op. (You're gun is digging into my hip)

Depends on who you ask. If you can close your hand and it makes a noise, (keeping your fingers straight) it sounds like a faint clapping. Otherwise, it makes no sound, but you look like an ass.

If GG pointing out that I failed in my attempt to have fans ask wrestling quesions is sucking up, I'd hate to see what pointing out my flaws consists of.
He is a huge wrestling fan and he wants to talk about wrestling mainly. You are a fan who is the comedic relief. I find your posts funny, hence why I'm responding.
I think you both kill each other's fun. SO blaming him for killing your fun when you're doing the same for him isn't right.
And lets keep one thread on here on topic, ask questions, respond to my answers, and dont bash the ghost here, thats what PGW threads are for.

I also wanna state for the record, I did say in the opener that you could ask any question you want. So despite the craziness, it's allowed

Dear Dan Barry,

Here's the scenario.

Your nearing the finish of the biggest, most important match of your career. So big, in fact, that it could land you a spot on the KTW roster.

Suddenly, as you near the finish, a rift in space & time opens right in the center of the ring. Emerging from the rift is drunken tiger who recently underwent cybernetic augmentation that not only gives him machine like strength, but also a detachable penis.

Said drunken tiger comes to you and offers you the opportunity to go the future and become the one millionth contestant on Canada's premier game show, 5-4-3-2-Run.

What do you do?

Why do I spend more money going to shows than some wrestlers spend on training?
