What are some of the better and worse wrestling hometowns for guys to be hailed from?
Here are two examples- one cool, one lame:
The Department of Corrections In Cobb County, Georgia
WCW Special Forces

Truth or Consequences, New Mexico
Death Valley
Parts Unknown
The last two are iconic, but all three should be recognizable to long-time wrestling fans

What's funny is that, when Raven used "The Bowery," it was a time when New York's Bowery district had a history for being one of the more undesirable areas of the island of Manhattan. Along with being the epicenter for punk rock and a lot of avant garde music in the 70s, it was all drugs and crime. My first weekend after moving to NYC in '04 I accidentally got lost one Friday night in there and saw both a guy shooting up in a phone booth as well as a militant Black Israelite meeting. Fast forward to now and it's one of the most gentrified/cleaned up areas in the city. What were once shelters and smoke shops are art galleries and pre-schools. NYU's presence makes it one of the most heavily secured and clean areas as well. Basically, when the next generation looks back on Raven's billing, it's going to possibly seem exceptionally silly. |

I can't decide if "the other side of darkness" is dumb or awesome.
Web City, USA has to rank high on the dumb scale.

The best one is Badstreet, USA and it's not even close.

"The Outer Reaches of Your Mind"
Might be one of the best and worst home towns at the exact same time.

I always liked Beef Wellington's hometown of "The Backstage Area".
