SD Jones passed away today on his native island of Antigua from complications related to a stroke.
Special Delivery" Jones, one of the steadiest performers ever to appear in a WWE ring, passed away on Oct. 26 in his native Antigua, West Indies; he was 63.
Jones, whose real name is Conrad Efraim, was trained in the early 1970s by WWE Hall of Famer Johnny Rodz, and entered WWE in late 1976. His WWE tenure continued through 1986. Through that time, Jones was a competitor who always gave optimum effort in all of his matches. Many of his opponents knew that if they wanted to gain a victory over Jones, they absolutely had to dig deep to earn it.
One of the more infamous distinctions that S.D. will be remembered for was his match against King Kong Bundy at the inaugural WrestleMania in 1985. The match lasted a mere nine seconds, and although on the losing end, this match made Jones a part of WWE history for the fastest pinfall ever scored at that time.
S.D.’s last WWE appearance was in 2006, when he inducted his long-time friend and confidant Tony Atlas into WWE’s Hall of Fame.
All of us here at Free Rein Media send out sincere condolences to his family and friends.

That's it foR this week, see you all next week on our 1 year anniversary show.
Thanks for everyone who tuned in this week.

Own A Piece Of Lockdown PPV History

If you saw the post-Lockdown edition of TNA Today, you know Don West couldn't wait to take a pair of bolt-cutters to the Six Sides of Steel!

According to Don, he's nearly finalized his huge Lockdown commemorative special, which will feature actual pieces of the steel cage that Samoa Joe won the World Title in!

Not only that, but according to sources Don actually has possession of Joe's towel from the Pay-Per-View as well.

Don is promising to unveil the Lockdown special in coming weeks...and he promises it will definitely be one of the coolest commemoratives ever!

ppdingles question of the week was this...

Do you think Randy Orton will walk out of Backlash still WWE Champion?

My answer is yes I do. He has overcame the biggest odds that were against him at Wrestlemania 24 and I think he can do it once again. Of course you will have to tune in this coming Monday night to see if I am right.


This week in Wrestling History is now a Blog exclusive!!!!! With more History!
I will still be covering a few history moments but the rest will be in a blog each week and this weeks blog is already up for you to enjoy and relive those wrestling memories.

The official Parent of the year award is underway and here are the two first nominees...

Cutting-Edge Parenting: Sheriff's deputies in the Orlando area were on the lookout in March for two women who, according to surveillance video from the Magical Car Wash, had pulled into a stall and deposited coins but then proceeded only to scold and then pressure-wash a small child.

Aron Pritchard, 27, was convicted of child endangerment in March in Hutchinson, Kan., after a jury declined to accept his explanation for his girlfriend's kids, age 2 and 3, being burned in a hot clothes dryer. Pritchard said he was just trying to show them they could have fun without necessarily spending money.

Throughout 2008 I will be keeping track of idiots like these and select a winner later this year. This should be fun.

Well that's it for this week, hope to see you all this coming Monday night for an all new episode and remember that this Monday is the Free Rein Media SUPER SHOW. Inside the Squared Circle at 7pm Eastern and then at 8pm Eastern is an all new episode of Probably Uncalled For.

See you at ringside!
