|  #1 Posted on 23.9.03 2059.13 | Instant Rating: 6.30 | I somehow have a feeling this announcement may carry more weight on THIS particular board. From wwe.com:
HERSHEY, Pa. – Sept. 21, 2003 – Former WWE Superstar Steve Blackman, a resident of Pennsylvania, came to Unforgiven tonight to see friends he hasn’t seen in a year and a half.
The “Lethal Weapon” attended a SmackDown! event here a few months ago, but he hadn’t seen the RAW crew since injuries forced him to leave the company nearly two years ago.
“I live about 10 miles from here,” Blackman said. Referring to his former “Head Cheese” tag team partner, Al Snow, he joked, “I came to bust Al’s balls.”
The former Hardcore Champion was sidelined due to severe migraine headaches. According to doctors, the headaches are caused because of bone spurs and other problems in his neck and spinal cord area. While he was competing, he’d get them 10 times a month; these days, he gets one every six to eight weeks, he said.
Recently, Blackman has gotten in touch with Kurt Angle and Dr. Hae-Dong Jho of Pittsburgh. Dr. Jho performed surgery on Angle last April; the Olympic gold medalist was able to successfully return to the ring two months later, and the operation is being viewed more and more as a miracle procedure. Blackman is considering – even leaning toward – having the surgery, which, if successful, would cure him of the headaches, and pave the way for a possible return.

A frank discussion of HHH's chances in Hollywood:
Dark Renegade: "I can see it now...Freddy vs. Jason vs. Triple H. Both Freddy and Jason are much better, but Triple H will screw Satan's daughter and he'll get Satan's help in going over both of them."
Canadian Bulldog: "That's just such an unlikely scenario. Obviously, it would end with Triple H running Jason over with a car, then invading his nightmare so that he could wallop Freddy Krueger with a sledgehammer." | InVerse

I would presume that means Angle was interested in seeing Blackman return, because he doesn't seem like the type of guy that would just be brought up at random. | tomk

Honestly the only WWF vs WCW matchup that I ever wanted to see was Cat vs. Blackman and with Jho in place...the stage may be set.

They are geographically linked - they have that Pennsylvania thing in common. Also, Blackman was Angle's first pretty-much-big feud when he came to the WWF.

I dunno. It was a pretty bad day if you were a Seattle fan watching the M’s offense sputter out again. | emma

Also, the specifics of Blackman's injury: "According to doctors, the headaches are caused because of bone spurs and other problems in his neck and spinal cord area." As soon as I read that sentence, I said to myself ("Self," I said) "That's exactly the kind of thing that Dr Jho's procedure is perfect for." | WillGilman

Some of us after a while have gotten used to Seattle's offense sputtering. Dammit... why do I have to live in such close proximity to such a chokey team.
Oh well.. at least The Seahawks'll keep me happy til their season dies
CHARLIE: I should have gone in. I'm such a chicken. I should have kissed her. I should go knock on her door and just kiss her. It would be romantic. It would be something we'd tell our kids about someday. I'm going to do that right now.

There's always next year (I'm allowed to say that because it's been said to me every goddamn year).
At least you guys have been the champs in living memory. I actually really enjoy watching the Mariners, and I was pulling for them over Oakland earlier this month to take the AL West Title, but whatcha gonna do?
Anyway, we'll give Oakland a good ass-kickin' for you guys.
The man, the myth, the legend...
