Yoko passed away in 1997.

Yeah, Pitbull Anthony Durante died some time ago.

I've seen a few matches of Art Barr's and I can honestly say he was incredible. He could have been something special. I would be prepared to go out and say he would have been HUGE. He could go down as the biggest wasted talent of all time imo.

PPVs...

Jan - NYR & Royal Rumble
Feb - No Way Out
March - Wrestlemania
April - Wrestlemania & Backlash
May - Judgement Day
June - ECW
July - GAB & Vengeance ?
August - Summerslam
September - Unforgiven
October - No Mercy
November - Cyber Sunday & Survivor Series
December - Armageddon

Unfortunately Art Barr's career is somewhat tarnished by being convicted of rape. He worked in Portland for a while, but his reputation was out there and his wrestling license was subsequently revoked in Oregon - so he moved onto WCW, who tried to push him, but sadly the reputation followed him and subsequently he was demoted and released.

Iluvnuts, you could be thinking of Renegade who was somewhat of an Ultimate Warrior wannabe. He was pushed almost instantly, he was a fairly average worker and the fans reacted accordingly. He took his own life in 1998 or 1999 I think.

I HAVE A QUESTION!

In a last man standing match, do the wrestlers have to be in the ring for the referee to make the count or can the count be made with the wrestlers anywhere in the arena?

Anywhere in the arena. As reference to the Shane V Kane Last Standing Match at Unforgiven 2003 where Shane jumped off the platform.

Lenny and Lodi were a very lovey dovey, touchy feely tag team in the later years of WCW....what was their secret that they eventually revealed to JJ Dillon and name one of the two groups (non wrestling) who influenced the change to the original angle....btw-no Wikipedia usage! It really doesn't help that much anyway

Someone please correct me if I'm wrong, but would I be right in saying that Shelton Benjamin has performed the T-Bone Exploder off the top of a ladder before?
