I thought WXO would be a promotion to compete with WWF. They were around in early 2000 or 2001 with Ted Dibiase as the commissioner type role. Barry Darsow wrestled, Fred Ottman got stuck in a car and Johnny Ace pulled a Lex Luger "I don't know" type of promo where he didn't know what the letters stood for, IIRC. I think it only lasted one more episode, if that, before disappearing.

Also Jerry Jarrett never got involved in a cocaine smuggling operation.
At least not as far as anyone knows.
Say what now?! I thought I knew the whole story but this is a new twist. From what I could piece together, he claimed ownership of a suitcase of AU$700,000 that had been the proceeds of said cocaine smuggling, while heavily under the influence of cocaine himself during his police interview. He got caught bragging about his “performance” in his interview in a tapped phone call to the bloke he was covering for. It was all in exchange for a sizeable loan, because he was in financial trouble and needed to pay a debt he had to Lenny Kravitz.

A follow-up to ECW that ran out of the ECW arena.
Used a lot of the same roster too. I only had 2 DVDs of theirs and from what I've read the promotion was once put up for sale on eBay for 150k

Global Wrestling Federation I don't remember if I ever watched it when it first aired back in the early nineties, but I watched several of the old reruns they used to show on ESPN Classic a while back. It had the Patriot as one of their top guys, also Buff Bagwell in a Lone Ranger mask and Booker T and Stevie Ray as the "Ebony Experience." Ahmed Johnson as "Moadib" and The Godfather as "The Soultaker." Bastion Booger as "Makhan Singh" Raven as "Scotty Anthony" and JBL as "John Hawk." I even started fantasy booking my own revival of the company back in 2014. Just an fyi that you didn't need to know.

I believe the matches on that DVD are from GWF.
