As you may know, I can't deliver all these breaking stories myself. Did you know that back in the days before the Internet, I had an ARMY of sentient rollerskates that brought me tidbits from around the wrestling world? WELL NOW, I DON'T NEED THOSE INGRATES ANYMORE. I have you, the people who send me tips and don't care if I give you no credit for them. If you have tip, or even a scanned picture of a postcard that HASN'T been defiled by those PostSecret jerks, send it my way to ProWrestlingSKOOPZ@gmail.com. Also, if you want only the latest in scoops straight up to the very instant they happen, you need to follow me on the Twitters, @HorbFlerbminber. Do you remember the time I reported that Kevin Nash was being arraigned on charges he killed the President in 1963? OF COURSE YOU DIDN'T, because you don't follow me on Twitter yet. DO IT.
If you need back issues of the SKOOPZ newsletter, then contact me using an intricate series of smoke signals that I learned from a man who claimed he was Jesus Christ's third cousin, 27,000 times removed while traveling on the CSX freight lines a few years ago. If you do, I will send you all the back newsletters you can fit in a satchel. What size satchel you bring is up to you, but it has to be a satchel. NO SCHOOL-STYLE BOOKBAGS, OKAY?
I also need questions sent to me for my upcoming interview with Andy Kaufman. Oh shit, spoiler alert, Kaufman's faking his death and he's going to come back on an episode of Smackdown to choke out Jerry Lawler with piano wire as revenge for all those years in Memphis. Personally, WWE is wasting him on that shitmire of a show. Anyway, ask anything you want, but you have to send the questions via sealed envelope to my special dropbox in the Sierra Nevada mountains. If you e-mail me, I will send you the super-secret map with instructions on how to beat the Bandersnatch guarding it.
Also, you can finally purchase the tenth anniversary edition of my book, Bryan Alvarez Smells Like Doo-Doo, which I co-wrote with Colin Mockrie. It includes a foreword from the members of the NODURTSHEETS dot com message board, and all new accusations of plagiarism, malfeasance, and simony against Alvarez. It also comes with a free pint of gasoline and a pack of matches just in case you get called to a civil trial for a suit Alvarez has against me for libel so you can burn the book without it being used as evidence.
Also, be kind, rewind.
- In the news story of the week, "Macho Man" Randy Savage will finally be inducted into the WWE Hall of Fame after years of being the biggest exclusion from the group. Many theories abound as to why Savage and WWE chairman Vince McMahon had a falling out. Some say it was Savage leaving for WCW, while others hold onto the brash conspiracy theory that Savage had an illicit affair with Stephanie McMahon before she was of age. All those rumors are actually FALSE. Savage actually made a joke that he was going to crush up some leaves and shove them into his new girlfriend's vagina, embarrassing McMahon and proving that Savage covertly read his dream journal behind his back.

This is, however, his mother, one day after Jones rihaba just came out, showed.

- Lucha Underground's second season begins tap... AHAHAHAHA, no, I just still can't get the idea that a real live wrestling company actually put its top Championship on Roderick Fucking Strong in the year 2015 of our Lord. Seriously, WHO DOES THAT?

- Sergio Brown imitated Ric Flair's famous "jet-ridin'" spiel after the Colts beat the Broncos in the NFL playoffs Sunday. After the tape stopped rolling, he further imitated the Nature Boy by heading to the bar and maxing out his credit card buying drinks for everyone before calling Vince McMahon for a cash advance.
