Certainly sounds like LAX are f***ing pricks.
The dude doesn't cooperate on an over-the-top backcracker, then when the guy falls over from lack of help, does a f**king BORDER TOSS, just because it's an indy show and they feel above that sort of shit?
Yeaaaah, that's the pinnacle of professionalism.

If true, then yeah, that's kinda f***ed up on LAX's part. But then, we're only really getting one side of the story.

Was only a matter of time before Hernandez hurt somebody. Most of his moveset looks like it'd be quite painful/dangerous.
Kind of weird that Mack's lung has collapsed more than once. Can someone have a glass lung?
Also, I find it funny that KIRBY has a lung problem. But that's just the video game nerd in me talking...

Kirby and TJ are a really talented tag team, ive seen them and they have a bright future, this story does not represent LAX well but i think it could be a little over-exaggerated, accidents do happen in wrestling, im sure Hernandez didnt intentionally try to hurt Kirby, if so then he ought to think about changing his profession.

Ive watched Hotsutff Hernandez in the ring since about 2001. Ive been in buildings of 40 or less people watching him and I have NEVER seen any hint of "unprofessionalism" from him.
I dont know what happened with LAX there, but I find claims of unprofessionalism from Hernandez hard to believe, based off of what ive seen from him the last 6 or so years.

Pro wrestling great Bret Hart once said his proudest accomplishment in the wrestling business was that he never seriously hurt an opponent.
And that should be the goal of every performer who makes his living in the mat trade. A pro wrestler's main responsibility during the course of a match is to protect the body of his "rival." somebody should tell Amazing Kong to read this part

It says they wrestled before on TV. i'm guessing they are the guys in comahan's sign, the victims of the Border Toss/Vertabreaker combo they did on iMPACT.
Yeah, I'm surprised that they would do that, though. Wish there was some more facts, though.
Are they talking about Daffney from WCW? Isn't her real name Shannon?

Kirby comments on the story:
I want to issue this statement on the article released about LAX, ourmatch, and my injury. Please feel free to use this on your site. On July 20th In Myrtle Beach SC we were fortunate enough to participate inthe Rock N Roll Cup for Hermie Sadler’s UWF. TJ and I had the pleasure ofworking LAX that night. In an unfortunate but unavoidable turn of events Isuffered a punctured lung. However, I was not injured while going intothis match as stated. In my previous update post on MySpace I gave themedical definition of my condition. Three years ago (around the same time)I suffered a Spontaneous Pneumothorax (take note on the key word there,SPONTANEOUS). To clear things up a Spontaneous Pneumothorax is a suddencollection of air or gas in the chest that causes the lung to collapse inthe absence of a traumatic injury to the chest or lung. (*Defined onhttp://www.lungusa.org/site/pp.asp?c=dvLUK9O0E&b=35772 American LungAssociation site). Once you suffer a SPONTANEOUS Pneumothorax your chancesof suffering it again increase. You can have this reoccurrence at anytime:while driving, singing, sneezing or sleeping - unfortunately it happenedin the ring. This being my second Pneumothorax I now have to undergosurgery to make sure this doesn’t happen again. I in no way contribute LAXto my injury nor do I think they were unsafe with me. As far as the article goes that was written about the incident, they werenot any of my thoughts or words. Thomas, while no secret is a friend ofmine, does not speak for me and gave his own thoughts and opinions on thematter. I was not contacted nor asked what my thoughts on the match were.Though sometimes Thomas believes his intentions are for the better, theyend up hurting more than helping. I’ve tried to explain this to Thomasbefore but he is very passionate about his friends and speaks his mindwhen he feels compelled to. It basically comes down to this, I suffered asevere yet unavoidable injury and it unfortunately happened in the ring. TJ and myself hold no animosity towards LAX. We thank them for the opportunity and look forward to one day meeting them in the ring again. Ijust want to apologize to TNA Wrestling, and LAX for any inconveniencesthat may have been caused by this situation and article. Now someone book a rematch this could be a “Slobberknocker”!
His lack of paragraphs is his fault not mine. He doesn't blame LAX at all.

Article: "Kirby said they would never ever work LAX again." Kirby: "Now someone book a rematch this could be a “Slobberknocker""
LOL @ This Article. Take this with a grain of salt gentlemen.
Also, if you have a disorder where your lung keeps collapsing it's probably not wise to bump on your back, which if I've got the human anatomy right is Muscle > Ribs > Lungs. There's not too much to bump on and it's just a matter of time before it collapses again if he wrestles after this.

I also doubt Hernadez would take liberties on some indy guy. Not to a serious injury degree anyway. I do have to say that having watched LAX since thier TNA debut they have some stiff moves and wrestle a tough style as thier gimick demands. Hernandez border toss always has the potential to go bad. How many times have you winced in pain for Chris Danials on the recieving end of it? As for what Tenay calls "The Gringo breaker" that move should be banned from every promotion around the world. It looks cool as hell but dude seriously how can you protect a guy who is dangling from your lower back as you drop him on his head and neck? Side note time. I watched beyond the mat again a hwile back and thought that Tony guy from APW did the verdebreaker in a dark match. Cornette reacted as if he killed the guy and Vince didn't seem impressed with the move at all

Homicide Comments on Statements By Omega Promoter Thomas Simpson TNA star & former NWA TNA World Tag Team Champion, "The Notorious 187" Homicide gave the DOI the following statement, concerning an article written by Mike Mooneyham where Omega Promoter Thomas Simpson portrayed the LAX tag team in a negative light:
On July 21st, LAX of myself & Hernandez, participated in the UWF "Rock & Roll Express" Tag Team Tournament show, in Columbia, South Carolina. It was an honor to be part of this show as I have much respect for the Rock & Roll Express tag team, the OMEGA promotion and the talent that has come out of OMEGA. I just read an article where Mr. Simpson slandered myself and Hernandez. Short & simple I never had any problems with anyone at that show. We are professional and are very humble when it comes to this business. Simpson didn't have the facts right and to me, was stirring up stuff for the internet. I am sad to hear that Kirby "Krazy K" Mack was injured in the match, but the truth was he was injured before the match. We were told after the match that he wrestled this match with an injury. I understand you have to feed your family & put food on the table, but why wrestle with an injury if you know the end result will be you making your injury worse? Also the "Border Toss" is not some sort of death finisher and Hernandez was not out there to hurt anyone. I hope that Kirby heals up and that he and his partner get a contract some day and become stars. Myself & Hernandez have no personal animosity for the Mack team and wish them well. I do wish that Mr. Simpson would get his story straight as what he put out there is complete bullshit. To Mr. Simpson- "You are Bob O'Reilly and I'm Snoop Dogg. SHUT THE f*** UP SIMPSON. That also goes out to ya bitches who don't know the facts nor bothered even contacting me for them."
In other Homicide news, Homicide returns to the northeast on 8/11, making his long-awaited CZW return. He will challenge CZW Champion Ruckus for the CZW Heavyweight Title on that show. Homicide will also be defending the JAPW Tag Team Championships with Hernandez on 9/8, in Rahway, NJ.
You can also see Homicide every Thursday night at 9PM on TNA Impact, which airs on the Spike TV network.

That cannot be a real comment from Homicide. Too much English and punctuation to be him.
