What was the conversation like? I mean, when stamp picked up, what did you say?
"Hello Mr. Stamp, I am a big fan of yours from wrestling. Could I please interview you?"

Make fun of Mr. Stamp all you want, but I think TNA is missing out on what could be the angle of the century. Hear me out.
This is how Dennis Stamp can be used to help bring up TNA's ratings and PPV buys:
Take any of the underutilized but talented wrestlers on the TNA roster, and push him as a great talent who always seems to come up short of the win for various reasons. Do this for several weeks. By some fluke, this talented but continually losing guy gets a clean pin on either the cruiserweight or (with alterations) a pair get a non title pin on the tag champions.
Set up for a championship match, where the general feeling would be that he'll/they'll come up short. Day of the big match. During the match, the underdog(s) can't seem to dominate as well as in the match that gave him/them the title opportunity.
Enter Dennis Stamp.
He comes down to the ring and, directly or indirectly, aids the challenger(s) in getting the win and the title(s).
Here's where it gets good. Dennis, in the post-match celebration in the ring, cuts a promo about how, although he gave years of his life to the business, that he was overlooked, underbooked and later treated as a joke. He didn't want to see that same fate for (insert underdog wrestler(s) here), so he was going to see to it personally that his charge(s) would not be overlooked, not be made into a internet joke, and most definetly be booked.
I realize that this may only appeal to the wrestling smarks at first, but if handled right I think it has killer potential.

YES! Stamp must be told of his cult following here at the 'Crap. PLEASE ask him to join. He would be a WrestleCrap GAWD! I think the fanboys would just scare him away, like they did for LuFisto ... Although I doubt that anyone would propose to him ...

Depends on how well it is booked after him initially helping out. If he is treated as a joke or an asshole it could turn out fantastic.

What was the conversation like? I mean, when stamp picked up, what did you say? "Hello Mr. Stamp, I am a big fan of yours from wrestling. Could I please interview you?" I never thought it would be this easy actually. I first went to Google and found the website for the Amarillo Public Library. I put some serious time into this shit. They got back to me today with a phone number that was disconnected. Next, I went to yellowpages.com, found another # and, boom he answered. He seemed really touched that someone wanted to interview him. Now here are some things that he touched on in his little talk. *He was interviewed by Bryant Gumbal (sp?) when he worked the LaBelle's territory in the mid 70's. He seemed proud of that. * He says that he in Paradise Alley with Stallone and Funk. * He tells a great story about Bret Hart coming down to Amarillo when he is 15 or 16 and him working w/Hart in his first ever pro match. *He also said that he has been fired by the best promoters in the world. Gene Kininski, The Funks, McMahon. I don't know why he wanted to brag about that, but oh well. And as of now, I don't think I'm gonna tell him about the site. Sorry guys, but I think that would ruin the chances of an interview. Maybe if we hit it off I might, but look at my sig for god sakes. I just don't know how he would take it.
