It is called the Wee Boot for a reason. Unless he urinates while he does it then it's misnamed. Are we sure it's not the Weeaboot, the symbol of all his frustration and anger at not being Japanese?

So, he's your average indy wrestler skill-wise then.

Grado proposed to Seleziya Sparx whilst at Superkick'd in Toronto this weekend... supposedly. Huh. A strange way for Sparx to solve her visa problems but ok.

No joke, I think Sparx is a hell of a talent. Having said that, those visa problems were ones she caused and that's going to hinder any big promotion going for her again. I'd be shocked if ROH ever has her back again never mind how long the ban is. Having said that, if a Rev Pro booked her, I'd be there.

They knew about the border issues yet the kept increasing her push. So I don't get what you are saying here. There was at least some interest by WWE in Sparx. They liked her unique look and her ethnicity. The latter is why they gave Jasmine a tryout.

Sparx got in trouble because she said she was just visiting and not mentioning that she was wrestling while here. A border agent somehow matched up her border crossings with her US match results. ROH helped fix Elgin's issues. But Sparx straight up lied and got banned.

I totally agree with you on the personal responsibility front. Neither of us know the communications between ROH and Seleziya most likely. Just in talking to a couple of her better friends when the whole thing went down they felt ROH did "exploit" this impressionable young woman with stars in her eyes. Again ROH kept increasing her role when they knew about her border situation. ROH fixed Elgin's issues only after sitting on Elgin's paperwork for too long for passing it on. I've never heard or read about any heat or ill will towards Sparx from the ROH side of things only sadness. Anyway this thread is about Grado and I don't think I can say more about the Sparx situation.

First time I have seen Grado wrestle last night on Impact. As a Brit, I feel I should apologise on behalf of all right minded Britons to the fans in the US.
I feel embarrassed about the masses of my fellow countrymen cheering this useless wobbling mass.

With the border issues for the woman wrestling in ROH I have to question how border security found out. I'm sure some of you may have seen this before but a number of years ago Chris Hero ended up on the Australian Television show "Border Security" where he was held up because they thought he was working without a visa. Hero smoothed it over, told them he wasn't making any actual money and was doing it as a favour to his friend (Which I would say was 100% a lie) and they simply had the promoter sponsor Hero's trip and he was allowed into the country and to wrestle.
Now I'm no expert on America's laws but surely the female wrestler could have simply said "I'm doing this for exposure and am not getting paid" and she wouldn't have been banned from America, right?

It's a damn shame he's the one getting the spotlight post-Bootcamp and not someone like Rampage, Noam or Mastiff.

I do wish it was Mastiff because I am a fan of big guys and Mastiff is a big guy yet can go in the ring and is good talent wise as well. This is from TNA's own youtube page

I feel like I have to actively suppress my inner JBL/Heel Cole when I see this guy.
I don't mind you not having a conventional look(Bruiser Brody did not have a conventional look), I don't have any issue with a wrestler who's small(Rey Mysterio moved merch like no other except Cena), I don't have an issue with a wrestler with a little bit of flab on them(Samoa Joe has flab and is awesome). However, at least make sure you look like a pro wrestler.
This guy looks like such a, to use a term regularly used in the UK, a "knobhead."
