    My niece who lived in Lexington Tennessee passed away last year. Her and my wife were a year apart and super close. As my wife was going through her pictures, she finds an autographed 5x7 of Eddie Gilbert personalized to my niece. It's now a prized piece of my wrestling autograph collection. RIP Eddie and Keri

    I read this title and thought it was an actual punch with spikes, not a drink with something put in it lol

    The spiked punch is a great name for a finishing move.

    JIM CALLING SOMEONE A REDNECK BEING FROM “KENTUCKY” IS CRAZY

      Jim's not a redneck though, he's a hillbilly. The hills of his neighborhood are literally steep enough to launch a speeding car on top of his fence post!

    Cornette talking about Bullet Club Gold getting stripped of their gold, should ironically be comedy gold.

      ​@@SwayzeKobain98What are you complaining about? Jay White was the weak link in that group. With Juice Robinson in there instead, they will finally get interesting.

    If this happened after the fall of the territories someone would have demanded Eddie Gilbert start using a "spiked punch" as a finishing move.

    Eddie Gilbert wasn’t at the same level as Flair, Steamboat, Funk… mid-card was where he belonged.

    • @johnriggs6995
      @johnriggs6995 Місяць тому +1

      Tell me you never really watched Eddie Gilbert without saying you never watched Eddie Gilbert…
      Eddie was really too good for mid-card and too over to really be a good face: his best role was as a lower class heel. His “hot stuff international” gimmick is how jcp got Rick Steiner snd Sting.
      Left to his own devices, Eddie could have been the next Paul jones or Kevin Sullivan.
