Holiday Reflections From “The Highroller”

Monday, November 30th, 2009

It’s begining to look a lot like Chirstmas, indeed, greetings from The Strip in Viva Las Vegas, Nevada, It is I, The Diamond of diaster, The Spade that never fades, The Club that gets the job done, and the man with so much Heart, I deliver the goods and always get what I want, “The Highroller” Michael Busciacco, with the only blog, that is by a highroller, of a highroller, and for the highroller, The Craps Shoot. Here we are, a weekend off from OTW action, and another great holiday in the books, I must say I enjoyed flying back to New Jersey to see my family for once, and not having to come to face all you annoying, uneducated fans. While you all got your take out meals from Boston Market, I wined and dined over the finiest turkey dinner that my mother perpared, along with many of close family and friends. Now I’m back in Las Vegas, getting ready to close off my villa, and relocate to my Winter residence in Reno just in time for Christmas. It will indeed be a busy month for yours truely, luckily Dan De Man and myself have coordinated and comprised all the measures we are taking in the final weeks of OTW in 2009, with the big double event on the 19th, we don’t want to end this year without making sure ever end is justified by it’s means.

Knowing that all Old Time Wrestling’s titles are now on a frozen period, we will not have to worry about the next two weeks of defending our titles, along with “Full Throttle” Chris Bohren and “Pretty Boy” Brian Johnson. Tournement matches are now being put into place by General Manager Jim Molineaux, I hope he will be fair and impartial as he claims to be, I would like to announce that my vote of no confidence is still be processed as we speak Molineaux and I promise that I will not rest until an infraction or even possible impeachment is set upon, it’s nothing personal Molineaux, you and I have been down our roads already, it’s simply for the people you claim really run OTW and that is the fans. It’s time that someone steps up that is fair and firm and you don’t seem to hold either of those qualities, enjoy the power while you may or my not still have it.

So Old Time Wrestling returns this weekend December 5th with our usual 2pm bell time, hopefully “Pretty Boy” Brian Johnson will grace us with his presence, and not be the chicken he was 2 weeks ago, what about Anthony Digotti and Bazzoka Joe? They seem to not keep a steady schedule with OTW, could they be consprying something? Could we be possibly see the long awaited reunion of Mass Destruction? What about Luis “The Punisher” Martinez, can’t seem to live with the fact that Craig Nash knocked him silly, and has to live with the fact that he is no longer the dominating giant he once was. What direction is “Slow Boy” Eddie Hawkins going in? Obiviously the wrong one, the man could get lost in a cardboard box. What about Rob Ispota, the man only has one victory, but then again hasn’t everyone defeated that failed project? Matt Miles, the man takes nearly an eight week hiatus and thinks he can be put right back into the title picture? I would have to debate that. Adam Channlor, A miltary man who doesn’t even have a rank, and your only symbol u had is what we have now, your dog tags, you haven’t proved anything to me, your not tough at all and I hope for your sake you get some type of “A” game going if you want to survive the ranks of OTW.

That’s one side, now onto my friends, Welcome James Pasquale, you’ve already been ditched by us have fun on your own, Glamourous? I won’t say anything further. Rob Vegas, haven’t seen much of you but you got potenial pal. Miss Shavana Yvonne, you seem to be having trouble keeping “The Thriller”, Irish, and Brandon together as a unit, apparently you tried to outdo “The Highroller”, but everyone knows I am the one and only sucessful manager in OTW. A man once known as Gaylords has adapted to America and demands to be called Sir, idenity crises are very common amoung our population, Gaylord, I mean Sir, I hope you find whatever it is your looking for. Let’s talk about The Platium Club, CK Cross, still putting on an award winning performance everytime he goes out there, Craig Nash, I already talk to much about this man, the only giant, the only destroyer, I’ve said it a million times, but I’m gonna say it again the man has yet to have his shoulders pinned to the mat for a 3 count. Dan De Man, our fearless leader, looking to once again be the dominate king he once was, I could not ask for not only a great business partener, but a friend and mentor, the man is built like a brick house and will never let anyone get the best of him. Finally, IM Smarter, when you look up wrestler in the dictonary(If you know how to do that) this man’s picture is right next to it. Despite your chants of a fictional movie charactor(that movie sucked anyway) he has shown that he can teach anyone a lesson, in or out of the ring. Whether he’s hitting the books, or hitting the gym, he stays focused 24/7 and now his main focus the OTW Heavyweight Championship, I can only stand by and support him every step of the way, his determination is never stopping, the man has one integerdy in his pinky finger then most men have in their whole body. Johnson, you may not know who your opponant will be on the 19th, but keep your eyes on your former partener, he was always the better memeber of Pretty Smart, while you did all the talking, he did all the work in the ring, the man defends tag titles on his own, while you take weeks off, All in all Johnson, you may have caught him off guard a year ago, during that brutal no holds barred match, however things change in a year, he’s stronger, he’s quicker, and he’s not afraid to put his life on the line. Be perpared Johnson, because you never know what the future will bring.

Oh by the way Where is Danny Miles?Stay tuned to OTW to find out.

Now there is one man on the OTW roster I have left out, and with good reason, for he is the man that pocesses something that “The Highroller” once had, and wants back really, really bad. Chris Bohren, alittle over a year ago, you stole a mask of a great Junior Heavyweight Champion, and put it on, pretending to be him, you never were yourself, you were always a wanna-be, now ever since The Platium Club took away the only thing you had going for you, you got lucky and became a champion. You live on the fact that everything happens for a reason, and now you hold a title that requires a lot of work to keep, a demanding schedule, having to face now only the 215lb and below in title defenses, but also all the heavyweight in exhibitions. Bohren you’ve impressed a lot of people, with your in ring style of both mat and high flying. I won’t lie, I have a lot of respect for you, but I don’t like you, I have made it my mission to train harder, and make sure that on the 19th of this December month I am the man facing you one on one for that title. I never had enough time to enjoy that title, and I don’t have a bad memory, I remember the day I lost that title you were the referee and after reviewing footage, you saw what Miss Yvonne did to me. I’ve forgiven her, but in the end it was you who cost me the title, and now I want it back and I will go through any means nesscary. Take these next few weeks to think long and hard Bohren, because I will win the jackpot of jackpots, I will draw 21 on the table, the ball on the roulette wheel will land on my number, and the dice will read 7 or 11. It all comes down to the end of this year Bohren, enjoy the title while you have it, because it will once again be mine.

Old Time Wrestling, Putting The Class Back In Classic, make sure you join us in the final three weeks of 2009.

Happy Thanksgiving From All of Us in the Platuim Club

Tuesday, November 24th, 2009

You know I love the Holiday Season, it is indeed the most wonderful time of the year, forgetting your sorrows and reflecting on your times with family and friends, I am happy to fly home to New Jersey this year, to be with my family and closest friends. Of course I will be in the casino when I’m not celebrating, but it will all be good and fun. I wish to commend to my fellow closest friends, Dan De Man Jones, CK Cross, IM Smarter, and Craig Nash that you all enjoy your Thanksgiving Holiday, and our week off from Old Time Wrestling.

Now if you weren’t there this past weekend you missed a lot of intense action and a lot of controversy. I can confirm that a homeless man seemed to speak his mind and now it is offical. All Old Time Wrestling Titles are on a frozen period, which means that over the next 3 weeks there will be no title defenses amoungst us champions. And even more offical rulings in the case that no one in OTW can hold no more then one title in a given title reign. Of course IM Smarter will be the exception for the time, considering he holds 1/2 of the tag titles and 1/3 of the six man tag team titles. After I got in the face of Molineaux and the homeless man who thinks he runs OTW, I finally got my point across, week after week after, The Platuim Club has been forced to defend either out tag or six man titles, while Johnson and Bohrn keeping getting non title defenses. It makes me sick that one would discrimate because we are better wrestlers and have more potenial. But now the ruling stands. I for one am happy, now I don’t have to worry about defending my title until our big annual double event on December 19th, I will get into detail about this alittle later.

Chris Bohrn, Con Orgello, whatever you want to be called, you know, after you stole the title from “The Thriller” you’ve been ducking all contenders, you know I never got a rematch after the title was stolen from me. Now it is time for me to show everyone that I was always a true Junior Heavyweight Champions, I understand there will be tournement matches to determin the number 1 contenders for the titles, well Bohrn this is the oppertunity I have been waiting for. I will survive and come December it will be you and me, I will make it happen one way or another, and I will once again reign as champion.

“Pretty Boy”? More like a Pretty Coward, you pride yourself on being a fighting champion, yet you were no where in site this past weekend? You know IM Smarter is breathing down your back, and you refuse to face him one on one, now looks like you got yourself a little break that tournement matches will determine your number 1 contender, however I will make sure that every Platuim club memeber including myself will be in that tournement. We will not be satisfied until your title reign comes to an end. Have a nice Thanksgiving “Pretty Boy” because after the 19th it may be your last.

Oh by the way not that’s it’s any importance, but along with James Pasquale, Little Johnny’s application for The Platium Clubs newest member has also been terminated, we are now once again accepting applications, I will be attending a training session this week, so if you want in see me personally.

Now it’s offical Old Time Wrestling’s last event of 2009, will take place Saturday December 19th with a special Double Event. Yes OTW prides itself by giving the fans twice the action in a single day, two separate events, our usual 2pm bell time, with a break for you fans to grab dinner, then back 7pm with the night sky above and the December weather breathing down your neck. All Titles will be defended, and all of the talent of OTW will be there. It is going to be the event of a lifetime. Call our offices now to reserve tickets and seating as seating may be limited, call now (856) 933-0500. The Events will takes place at the home of Old Time Wrestling-”Pretty Boy” Larry Sharpe’s World Famous Monster Factory, Building 130A, Harding Avenue, Bellmawr, New Jersey. The times will be 2pm and 7pm Eastern Standard Time, don’t miss out, see what will happen in OTW before we enter 2010. “The Highroller” is ready for action and I well regin surpreme in whatever I do. 2009 was an up and down for me, and I will finish up strong. Just like a poker game, whether I get a full house, a straight, or a royal flush, I always win and i always win big.

Old Time Wrestling, putting the class back in Classic? Class is a very big word. General Manager Jim Molineaux, you want to pride yourself on being a fair and impartial general manager, making OTW about the one things it desevres to be about the wrestling fans that come out every Saturday and support us. Lately though In my personal opinion you have not upheld your controlling of what is going on behind the curtain. This past weekend “slow boy” Eddies Hawkins entered the ring with extra with an object inside his tights. Now I can’t blame the referee for what happened, as he is still very green at his sudden position. However it is under my opinion, being the former OTW senior offical that tights are to be check in the lockerroom prior to the bout aswell. It is the job of the General Manager to recieve a report from the offical. I’m am taking it into my own hands to personally to file a complaint and a vote of no cofidence to you Molineaux. No matter what happens justice will be carried out in some form.

With another weekend of intense action passing I can’t live in the past only in the future. Even with the absence of our leader Dan De Man, The Platium Club is still getting our point across. I am happy to say that Johnny is working out well with our inigiation program and hopefully he will stick it out as what he lacks in size he makes up for in potenial. I would to publicly announce the termination of James Pasquale, sorry man, guess you don’t have what it takes to be in the most exclusive club in OTW. Hope you enjoyed the beating “The So-Called Punisher” gave you. Luis you seemed disatistfied this past weekend, I guess you want you rematch with Nash, who could wait to beat the crap out of you again however the flu had it’s ways. I don’t why people ask for more and more beatings I guess getting hit in the head so much does that to you. I was happy that Nash felt better, Rob Isopata found that out first hand. Nash can only grow strong now and continue to dominate the ring as he does every week.

Johnson, Digati, you two seem to have hot tempers well we’re not gonna take it, you want a show down, you find 3 more guys and will gladly except your challenge to a 10 man tag, bring “The Punisher” Bring Bazooka Joe, Adam Channlor, Hawkins, Bohren, Miles, bring whoever you can, it just won’t work for you. It is our time now. Johnson, Smarter wants that title shot, and you are finally realizing who was the brains in Pretty Smart. Your afriad Johnson and it’s killing you inside, your title that you never deserved will be taken from you. That’s all I have to say.

We Didn’t Start The Fire

Monday, November 9th, 2009

Happy Monday, while all you middle class workers rush yourselves out of the house, grabbing breakfest and coffee at your local donut shop, and then sitting in traffic for 2 hours just barely making it in on time, I sit here in my villa, awaiting my 5 star breakfest, my suite butler preping everything, and looking out the window as the bright lights of Las Vegas begin to settle and the sun starts to rise.

Well another week of intense action has gone by in Old Time Wrestling. Surprises around every corner, new wrestler debutes, and contorversy of course. This week we saw the debute of James Pasquale, although he fell to defeat of “Slow Boy” Eddie Hawkins, I applaud the man’s effort, he may have a bright future in OTW, but only time will tell. It seems that Miss Shavana Yvonne has control over her men from a distance. It has been well documented that she is indeed smitten with the former Junior Heavyweight Champion “The Thriller” Andd Bivins, however her latest protege Irish Mike Kruz’s got the rematch that was intended for Andd againist “Full Throttle” Chris Bohren. Andd over disgust seem to prevent Irish Mike from obtaining the title this past weekend. Miss Yvonne was no where in site to settle this, as the supreme manager of managers, Miss Yvonne, you should never let your men get out of control, that’s free advice, take it for what it’s worth.

Moving on lets talk about The Platium Club, indeed with CK Cross taking a week off to heel his wounds from the chain match and Dan De Man off on his bi week vacation, The Six Men Tag Team Champions, IM Smarter, Craig Nash, and myself decided it was time for a title defence. We called out anybody, and who awnser the challenge? Two men that have already wrestled Johnson and Bohren, but we said that they must have a 3rd man, no more will we not be evenly challenge. Out of nowhere a man who hasn’t been seen since September Matt Miles decides to emerge. I was under the impression him and his brother have stepped down. I guess the erge to get back in the ring had been killing him. To no avail though we still showed that we can take a surprise and make it a diaster. Johnson you can try and try, but it’s just not working out. Now you took it up a level by busting Smarter’s nose. Ever since you two parted ways, you seem to think you’ve had more sucess, well let me tell you something Johnson. IM Smarter is the future and your still living in the past. He’s in better shape, he has better ability, and all in all he is just plain “The Best”. This week he pinned you 1,2,3 imagine if your title had been on the line. Something to think long and hard “Pretty Boy”.

I am happy to announce that we have selected a new potenial canidate for The Platium Club. John uh, lets just call him Little Johnny. Apparently he was the only one who submitted an application, and being equal oppertunity people, we decided what the heck. It’s nice to have a servant not only at my villa but at OTW to now. Will this 5 foot 4, 100Lb soaken wet, little dreamer last? Only one way to find out be there every Saturday, Building 130A Harding Avenue, Bellmawr, New Jersey, 2pm eastern standard bell time. There is nobody else who puts the Class back in Classic. Old Time Wrestling, it’s action back in time.

What Doesn’t Kill Us Only Makes Us Stronger

Monday, November 2nd, 2009

Ya know, all the people, that are loyal fans of Old Time Wrestling, who value all of its talent, really get on my nerves a majority of the time. I mean when you see people constantly not apperiating a good effort, it hurts. It’s been well over 2 years since I was wrongfully fired from being the great referee that I was. I can say that despite all my sucess of being a manager and now a wrestler, I still miss refereeing. Sometimes they say you can only go around once in a lifetime, but then people say there is always a second chance.

I leave that following statement open for the time being, now onto the facts. This past Halloween was not at all the Halloween I pictured, I mean the night was special but the action in OTW that afternoon is very unjustified. First of all IM Smarter complety robbed out of a well deserved victory over Anthony Digotti. Eddie Hawkins, you slow, uneducated, piece of human waste. You want to play cat and mouse with The Platium Club? Well you better gather your pieces of chesse and find the smallest wall hole you could fit into. Because you have now signed away what is left of that slow brain of yours. If you thought being in special education was tough, wait until The Platium Club enrolls, educates, d graduates you from Pain 101. I can’t say this class is easy, but I can say that the teachers benifit more then the student. Another match that day saw Dan De Man (The man you must cheer for!) fall short in a impromptue rematch with the unfortunte new OTW Junior Heavyweight Champion Chris Bohren. It was sad to say the least. A man who copied a once great OTW wrestlers, and now that he no longer wears the mask that he stole, he finally thinks he’s going Full Throttle? I guess will just have to see how much longer he could hang onto that belt.

In what was the highlight of the afternoon, once again due to the hands of Craig Nash, the mighty has fallen again. Yes the former 3 time OTW Heavyweight Champion, the man who claims to follow the belief that he can punish people, could not awnser a simple 10 count. Luis, I think your career is over pal, it has been settled that you no longer have it. A man that over 5 years ago was the main staple in OTW, can no longer do his duty. I don’t have to keep explaining myself, when I say Craig Nash is the future. Plain and simple. In only one short year, this man carried a tag team and single handledly won the tag titles, he destroyed both Darksyde and Fuji Tanaka, to the point where they have not set foot back in OTW since, and he dethroned Johnson of The Heavyweight Title, only to lose it on a technicality. I don’t have to explain any further.

Well CK Cross’ long awaited return to action came up short unfortunly, but he did give one heck of a fight to “The Pretty Boy”. I personally stood ringside and watched these two men destroy each other with a chain. I have to give credit where it is due, despite my hatred for Johnson, he can put up one heck of a fight. It may take a bigger man to finally dethrone him, but don’t worry The Platuim Club has many things to offer and Johnson you better not start hiding now, because your obligated to defend that title, so don’t think now that you got by one member that your home free.

I am happy to announce that hopefully this week, Dan De Man and myself will be personally holding an open contract to any elligible memeber of The Monster Factory Training School a chance of a lifetime. An open tryout to be the next member of the most exclusive club in Old Time Wrestling The Platuim Club. Do you want a future in Pro Wrestling start out the right way. This open tryout is only open to current students at The Monster Factory training school. I personally will be attending training session to take applications. Dan De Man will make the final say, when you are accepted you will go through an enlightment program that will last 1 month, if at the end of that month you have proven you are worthy an acceptence you will obtain. This is once in a lifetime and it will make your future in OTW brighter. Sign up now, feel free to message me right here at The Craps Shoot with any questions. Until next week here it comes:
