      There's a LOT of " Hacksaw's " in prison. Lotta tuff as shit teddy bears, who made one itty bitty mistake, n pay hard for it. Friend of mine got jumped at a bar, over a girl they lost cuz she wanted my friend more. Well, they were celebrating their win over stomping him out 5-1. Lol
      So Clint grabbed his deer rifle out of his truck, n shot the beer bottle that the dude was holding, and the glass embedded into the dude's skin. He was fine, he was never gonna get shot, my pal Clint is hardcore, but not a fn murderer. Well..... He got popped for "shooting him"! Saying the bullet was close enough n might've nicked him.
      It didn't. But whatever.... 10 years for attempted murder and A&B with a firearm. I can do another 29 stories here...

    "Big difference between justice and law." That's essentially what my granddad told me sixty years ago, and he was a member of the state bar for over fifty years. I liked Borne in WCCW, and his later interviews where he admitted his behavior, but he also invited all the demons in and never really tried to get any help.

    Matt Bourne was always a wild card. I saw him on an independent show with the BBOW. He was supposed to come out and sign some autographs, but he sat behind his table, pretty drunk mouthing off and calling a bunch of people names.
    He decided it was a good idea to try and feel up one of the female talent that was there. My friend who stand at 6 foot five and is disciplined many of martial art told him his behavior was unacceptable and that he needed to apologize. He decided to cause a big scene and puff up his chest, like he wanted to take him out in the parking lot and fight.
    My friend warned him that that wasn't a very good idea, but Matt just kept running his mouth. Eventually, one of the other fighters on the card had to break things up.
    I have fond memories of the show minus that incident. There was a couple of little people wrestlers that put on a hell of a match. One of them was named beautiful Bobby. Jake Roberts and the one man gang had quite about. The man took a chair shot to the head and to a loose screw. Jake ended up cutting his head open. I've got pictures of the aftermath.
    The free birds were there as well. Quite a hell of a tag team match. Greg, the hammer Valentine wrestled as well and was a pleasure to meet. I still have the autograph he signed for me.
    There was a generic version of the ultimate warrior who I had my picture taken with. I don't remember who he wrestled, but it was pretty good.
    One of the other matches on the card I don't remember the opponent, but the heel was a guy named LA Steele. I remember his valet getting her wig ripped off lol. The guy had very curly blonde hair so 90% of us in the audience thanks to my big mouth started calling him Goldilocks. He wasn't very fond of it. He did the typical heel maneuver of getting in my face and telling me to shut up. It was awesome. What was a little awkward is when we saw him the next day at a local restaurant grabbing breakfast. Have been any nicer though. Pretty cool guy.
    The memories of wrestling stuck in my head…

    Matt Bourne was known for cheap shots and starting fights. Two of the best stories involve Brian Blair (which was an epic fight), and Double A Arn Anderson. Seems Bourne was a fan of getting drugged up and getting into fights.

    @Nostalgia9478 Or maybe you B Dumb. The Koko/Hacksaw thing was clearly a misunderstanding. I love Hacksaw but you don't know the guy personally, but he slipped up and said something that Koko mistook as an insult. It's funny that you point out the Roma punch as proof of him being out of control. Hacksaw did the same thing in the ring with Steve Austin in WCW and others. No one is a perfect angel.

    I miss Matt. He was a family friend, n was well liked here in Portlandia.
    He wasn't reliable always, and has his demons, but he was a bad MF. and he was tough. His dad was meaner than Matt was ffs!
    I went to the house one time, n Tough Tony Borne answers the door: " wtf doo ya wan " ?!
    Uh uh, isss is mmm matt home?
    ( He was suppose to be helping at the local college for a wrestling tournament, but never showed... I think he left to Mid South that week? ). Obviously Matt made the right choixe n becoming a star. But he could've called at least. Lol
    But that was Matt in a nut shell.
