Cru’s Views:



Wrestling Training. If you want to get trained to wrestle, it actually helps to actually show up to the training sessions. It’s like my old buddy Jack Burton use to say "When some wild eyed eight foot tall maniac grabs your neck, taps the back of your favorite head up against the barroom wall, and he looks ya crooked in the eye and he asks you if you've paid your dues...Well you just stare that big sucker right back in the eye and you remember what old Jack Burton always says at a time like that. Have you paid your dues, Jack? Yes, Sir, the check is in the mail."
The problem with wrestling, well, correction, one of the many problems is no one wants to pay their dues. Everyone wants it handed to them. I read an article where this Amazon started training with the Funks. She has a good look. The thing is she thought she would just come in and be a screen writer and do storylines and maybe commentary. The thing is she had no wrestling background. She was an actress and model, but guess what, that means jack shit in wrestling storylines if you do not understand the psychology within wrestling. The Funks made her learn to bump and work a match before any of the storyline/commentary things. That is exactly what should have happened. She ended up catching on and became a wrestler. I hear a lot of bad things about the Funks (Dory & Marty), I have no clue if they are true. I met them before and they were professional to me. Then again Big Bank Barfield was trained by them and we all know how that turned out, for those that know him, “I can razzle, ma’an”!
Back to paying ya dues…..lord help us all if a trainee has to break a ring down or put one up. I am not picking on anyone in particular, but I do observe people at shows. I know if you are or were training with me, then I would put you on blast for it and expose you on the spot.
If someone asks you if you are ready to train then you better respond like my ol’ buddy Jack Burton and say “I was born ready”.  To many times do people show up at shows ready, but show up for training, ah, not so much. That same person’s sister is probably the #2 prostitute in all of Kazakhstan. “She make ah good Boom Boom”.
Wrestling training fact: “if the ring is already set up, they will come!” I love how Kid Kayfabe, let’s say, a 1 month trainee shows up to the show acting like good ol’ Jack Burton with an “Everybody relax, I'm here” attitude.  Yo genius, your 2 hours late. You guessed it, it took about 2 hours to set the ring up.  He can add! What tops that is when a rookie has their first match and gets upset because a internet reporter does not know who they are, I guess the reporter did not get the memo on the greatness that was scheduled to debut,  It’s kind of like Jack Burton once said before a fight, “Well, ol' Jack Burton always says...(main henchman) Who? (jack) Jack Burton................ Me!!!" , but that is another Cru’s View for the future.  Oh, while it is fresh on my mind, here is another future Cru’s View, if you portray a “Bad Ass” in the ring, it does not make you a legit “Bad Ass”. Do not forget where your gimmick ends and reality begins.
I am not into training people to make money. Training does not pay my mortgage. Unfortunately that is not the case in other places. I will do a try out for a small fee. I want to see if they have the heart to make it through a simple, yet basic workout and drill. I want them to get a taste of what it will be like. 90% quit or never come back. I don’t think I am being a dick. Being a dick would be asking for thousands of dollars up front and having a kid sign a “Devil went down to Georgia” contract,  and then haze them until they quit. The funny thing is, out of all the people that have tried out, a female performed the best on her tryout. She breezed through the drill with flying colors. 2 months in she ended up quitting.  It seems boyfriends/ husbands and training to become the next big thing diva do not mix, but at least she found this out before shelling out thousands of dollars somewhere else.
It is time for the coup de gras of this rambling rant. If someone is performing a wrestling move or hold in pro wrestling, then it should simulate a legit hold or move. If you are a pro wrestler, or if you are portraying one on a weekend in the near future ask yourself these questions: What wrestling hold am I trying to do? What is the legit hold that I am trying to portray? Can I perform the legit hold that I am trying to portray? If there is no legit hold to what I am trying to simulate, then what the hell I am trying to do with this hokey looking shit? You are supposed to be working a shoot! Alah, God, Al Sha-Bing Bing or whatever higher power you pray to forbid that you actually have to shoot a hold, but you better know what the hell you are doing to protect yourself. Dancing around with a choreographer pretending to chain wrestle may look “Pretty”, but in reality I have never once used it in any legit fight. It better be snug and on a freestyle/ Greco level,  not the Jets,  the Sharks, or anything else from Westside Story.  Just remember what ol' Jack Burton does when the earth quakes, the poison arrows fall from the sky, and the pillars of Heaven shake. Yeah, Jack Burton just looks that big old storm right in the eye and says, “Give me your best shot. I can take it.”

Long live the Zbyszko Stall!

NWA-Atlanta News:



The NWA Georgia Heavyweight title tournament filled with a rapid pace. The original 32 man tournament will now have wildcard matches to get the last few remaining spots into the tournament. The tournament will have familiar names from the Georgia scene as well as new comers to the Georgia wrestling scene. 3 names new to NWA- Atlanta fans, but not the Georgia wrestling scene are Frankie Valentine, Brad Lynch, and Grant Mitchell. Frankie Valentine has been a long time stand out performer on the Georgia Wrestling scene for several years now and is regarded as one of the best all around performers on the scene today. Grant Mitchell and Brad lynch, also known as “the So Fine Mafia” are the most successful and dominant tag team ever in the UIW, but how will they fair in NWA- Atlanta? All three will be competing in the tournament for a chance at the NWA Georgia Heavyweight title.
The UIW’s controversial Stan Robinson will be making his NWA- Atlanta officiating debut during the NWA Georgia Heavyweight title tournament.

At this point it could literally be anyone’s tournament for the taking. Who is the favorite? Here is the reader’s digest version of certain wrestlers and their chances:

AJ Steele: He never got pinned to lose his NWA- Atlanta title. He is coming off a strong win over the Barbarian, and he did the fans of NWA- Atlanta a huge favor by getting rid of Prince Akbar.

Andy Anderson: He retired the NWA- Atlanta title as its last champion with a strong victory over Abdul Qadeer/ Tyson Dean.

Tyson Dean: He was able to fool everyone, steal the belt from Steele, and even though he lost to Anderson in the last ever NWA- Atlanta Heavyweight title match, he left Anderson laid out in the middle of the ring after the match.

Rick Michaels: Rick actually held a version of this title way back when. Can the seasoned vet pull off an upset? If Simon Sermon, Bobby Hayes, and Matt Sells have anything to do with it, then No. All three are also in the tournament.

Pain & Bill the Butcher: These two are coming off big showings at “Bash at the Bridge”. Bill beat the most controversial character in Pro Wrestling, Zombie Rick Rude. Pain took the Tokyo Monster (NWA North American Champion) to a draw/ no contest.

Drew Adler: Drew maybe the Dark Horse. He is young, but at 6’4 and 230lbs with the quickness and grace of a cat he has the all the tools to pull it out. There is a reason why he is the #1 prospect in all of Georgia.

Cru’s Views:



These are the Views of Cru Jones and only he, for he is I, and I is he. The following views are mine and do not reflect anyone else’s opinion, even though after reading them, I am sure a lot will agree with them.
I was sidelined at the beginning of the year, unable to do anything physical. (a quick side note, who would have thought that the Beastie Boys mashed-up with the Grateful Dead would sound unreal; listening to it as I type this).  Back to being sidelined. I have pretty much done everything inside the ring. Now I found myself unable to do anything physical. Personally I have always prided myself on my brains, not just the muscles. Actually a lot of people are shocked at how good I am when I spank them at jeopardy or any other trivia venture. I have been involved behind the scenes in various roles for most places I have wrestled. I camouflaged all of the off the wall ideas at RPW for the last 5 plus years. I guess you could say I got my ”Masters”  degree in taking a totally ridiculous idea for a match or storyline , then molding, twisting, and polishing it into something that makes sense.  I was able to work with a lot of bookers, Jodie & Nick, Micah, Jimmy, Bill, Jason & AJ, and M1. I learned what works and what does not work. When it comes to being creative and risky I am way ahead of the curve. I am proud that a lot of the stuff I pitched was shot down for the fear of it being too risky and fear of backlash. I have never half-assed anything; I always go all out in everything. If someone is scared to go for something I pitched, I do not look down or hold a grudge. I save that idea for the future.
I was faced with sitting on my butt and doing nothing, or getting involved in something. That something was NWA-Atlanta. NWA-Atlanta has pretty much let me do whatever I have wanted. I had creative control of whatever I did when wrestling for them. As time went on they would ask for more advice. I never interjected myself on them. I was happy just showing up and doing my own thing. As time went on I was asked to review matches by some of the guys. Next thing you know they asked me to start training their guys, in which I refused. To NWA- Atlanta’s credit they were persistent and finally got me to agree to training, which is good some days, but other days it totally pisses me off, but that will be another “View” to write in the future.
NWA- Atlanta had been looked down in the wrestling community in this area for most of their existence.  This is when I came up with a question. How many people can say they have helped turn a wrestling organization around? Sure, Football coaches have done it with programs or teams. I started thinking to myself and could not come up with a “yes” answer. Have people propelled certain organizations to another level, of course, but turn around a place with a bad rep?  I approached the powers that be of what I wanted to do. I wanted to help in any way possible to pull this off. It took exactly 6 months to do it.
The following are things that I did, but not limited to, and remember I been in this for 13 years for all those that think they are above it. I papered cars, doors, and windows with flyers. I trained anyone I could threaten to show up, including trying to walk out myself several times for lack of effort or dedication. I pretty much made 85% of the people attempting to train rethink themselves, nothing would be given by me, so they quit. I helped with creative, making every damn gimmick known to mankind, getting talent, confirming talent, dealing with marks in the crowd and behind the curtain, dealing with facebook bookers, concessions, all media outlets, teaching security guards about the importance of B.O.,write ups, flirting with ugly fans, promoting, even cleaning the nasty ass bathrooms in Locust Grove. The number one thing I did not want to do was be in front of the crowd and take away from the wrestlers. I hate that, when someone in a non-wrestling role tries to be the star of the show. It is Pro Wrestling, not Pro Announcing, not Pro Commentating, and Not Pro General Managing. Things happen and people do not show up, and of course things get totally screwed up like referees looking dead at cheating and still not making the correct call, so I had to interject myself at times, which I hated. For the most part I was able to help run things behind the curtain. I do not view myself as a “Booker”. I would say I am closer to an Adviser. I am going to let the cat out of the bag, Andy Anderson is the booker. All the praise that the booking gets needs to go to him. He bounces ideas off of me to make sure they make sense, but the majority of creative stuff is his ideas, so all of the haters out there can go chew on some crow! I have been hearing it for years, he (Andy Anderson) is a mark, he has not been around long enough to run a fed, he is not trained right, he is a belt mark, he is a sting mark, he killed Jimmy Hoffa, he was the third gunman on the grassy knoll, he is a white-latino like Zimmerman, and on and on. Here is the truth about Andy. He got in the business and got screwed over by some pieces of shit. Old school turds like Jeff White, you may know him as “Vision Warrior” or “Rampage”. If you do not, then do not worry, be thankful, you are not missing anything. He is a perfect example of someone who has been in the biz for 20 years and they still f@#king suck. Pretty much these guys promised the world and took the money and ran. Andy being Andy said “F” this and decided he could run his own show, since these guys pretty much had Andy doing all the work and stiffed him. This is a trend for Andy. If you know him outside of the ring, then you would know he is an entrepreneur. He owns several businesses, all of which he got pissed off and decided he could do it better, and did. Most, correction, everyone that talks shit on him does not know that. They just run their mouth off of bullshit they have heard from Jack Meoff or the local Mark Kayfaberson. His wrestling fed has been at it for 4 plus years now. How many guys would sit back, see, and admit to their flaws, and asked to get re-trained? Only one, and that was Andy Anderson. Not another person would set their pride aside and try to restart, at least not up to this point. That is what Andy did. It started with training, and then morphed into re-vamping the entire show and roster.
As for people running their mouth about stuff they have heard, here is another example. In the mythical Top 10 that came out recently there was a term mentioned “PCW Guy”.  This is also known as a “Platinum guy”. I am here to tell you, outside of PCW, it is not a good thing. Anyone who is not a “PCW Guy” knows what I am talking about. If you are a “PCW Guy” you automatically get labeled with the image of a cartoony spot-monkey who does not know psychology from his or her a$$hole. Is it fair? Of course not, but it is reality.  Are all PCW Guys like that? No, but there are some who are high on spots. It is not fair because these guys have to work hard to prove they can go. Marko Polo works out with me. I knew where he was from, but I just observed him. I did not get all into the “he said she said”. Marko is nothing like that. In fact when Marko speaks of Stephen training he tells stories of Stephen preaching on psychology for hours.  The point, get the info first hand.
My goal was to get NWA-Atlanta turned around. I interjected all kinds of ideas and opinions on things that needed to be changed to get things going into the other direction quicker. Honestly, I thought the biggest success was the War Games show in the spring. That show was a home run. The thing that was missing was exposure. It got rave reviews, but certain people did not see it. In a Top 10 that came out recently the comment was “ if Larry has never come to one of your shows, you ain’t shit”, this statement is so true. I do not agree with all of said Top 10, but some points I do. The assessment of the importance of Larry Goodman was dead on. At the Bash at the Bridge show Larry Goodman showed up unannounced. I was told midway thru the show in between trips of me running to my car in east bumble (a distant parking lot) for everything from masks, boots, and gear. My first response was “Is Anarchy not running tonight”? The fact that Goodman showed up was shocking considering NWA-Atlanta runs on the same nights as Anarchy.  I don’t care what anyone one says, Anarchy is Goodman’s first love, well maybe second to some good Vodka…lol..Take that Larry! Now that I think about it, 3 others from the mythical Top 10 were on hand also, only 1 booked to wrestle. So, that would make 3 on their own, not to mention that there were 6 other promoters attending the show.
The infamous Goodman report came out. I had warned the powers that be in NWA- Atlanta of the infamous day that when it does come out it will be an eye opener. I was right. Honestly I thought it would be a lot more brutal. I saw a lot more than the report had, but then again I pick the show apart every 2 weeks NWA- Atlanta has a show. Funny thing is Murder One and I was discussing a while back about loving how Goodman rips apart shows. It gives guys something to strive for, to improve. In corporate America, giant corporations pay people to come in and analyze & evaluate their company’s and tell them everything wrong with it and it cost big bucks. Larry is doing the exact same thing for free.
When asked about Goodman’s report, I replied that he pretty much was dead on. The next thing I said was now use it to improve. It is the same in training, don’t give me an excuse, tell me how you intend to resolve the problem, give me a solution, not an excuse.
Next on the horizon is trying to help organize a 32 man tournament over the course of the next 15 weeks or as I like to call it, Mission Impossible. Indy Wrestlers are the most irresponsible people I have ever met. After the last 6 months I see why the majority of them are unemployed or stuck in dead end jobs. If it was not for Andy a lot of people would have already been gone from NWA- Atlanta, but then again a lot of new guys are getting a shot to show what they can do in this tournament, so come October  26th the roster could look a lot different.  On to improving….
