    My mam came home one day to all my friends standing around wooden decking watching me and another mate have a wrestling match with all the mattresses from the house as the canvas on the decking, ladders and plaster board smashed everywhere(substitute as tables) . She probably would of being less horrified if she ever caught me w*nking

    Same as everyone else plenty of stunners, chokeslams, sleepers were doled out when I was a kid. The big heavy crash mats in PE class were great as a base for doing flying elbows and splashes from the top of the climbing frames and for doing suplexes of all varieties.

    And once in 5th year a "friend" caught me from behind in a Tazzmission and had it on so tight I was on my tip toes and I turned blue, all I remember was the girls in the class screaming to let me go........I should also point out it was my own fault as he just wanted me to tap out but I refused being the little tough guy that I was haha I turned babyface that day woooooo

    When I was about 12 had a match with my cousin & some friends on a green. I took a full-on Cross Powerbomb but luckily landed properly, sold it like a champ though :P Match ended in a draw when my cousin got me in I think a headlock & I countered into some sort of Triangle Hold. Our faces went bright red but neither of us would tap out.

    As of 2014 Wrestlemania (IIRC), Omackeral was still doing worked shoot fights outside the woolshed, GOOD TIMES.

    He hits a mean vertical suplex when drunk too.

    I put the Camel Clutch on someone with no clothes on before.

    Wait now... Had you no clothes on, applying pressure, or was the guy straining on the ground face down, in the nip :p

    When I was young I didn't rate Ric Flair and I thought the Figure 4 was a crappy move. Until one day when I was 9 and play wrestling with my older brother and he put the Figure 4 on me. It was so painful and I never looked at Ric Flair the same way again.

    We used to play in a friends driveway, only two things went wrong:

    1. A friend doing some turnbuckle head bangs misjudged and caught his head flush on the pillar
    2. The same guy was doing a jump off the top rope, slipped when jumping and ended up doing a cross body, my other friend caught him perfectly but was also knocked off balance and they both fell to the floor. No injuries but the catcher lost as he was laughing too hard to kick out

    me,my friends and my brothers used to knock lumps out of each other but never got too hurt. my oldest bro used to make a wrestling ring out of some old mattresses and fence posts, put a white sheet over it and tie blue ropes around the 4 posts. made for some killer matches. i was the smallest so i got most of the punishment but i learned to fight and defend myself. i'm still a big wrestling/mma fan thanks to tough brotherly love.

    Me and my mates were the same, even as we got older, there'd always be a snap suplex, tazzmission or sharpshooter lying in wait for someone depending on what we were up to at the time.

    One time though, back in the college days, a friend of mine who was a weightlifter decided he could press me over his head, when he had me up on his shoulders (the starting point for an AA or an F5) one of the lads ran over and called for a 3D and pulled my head towards the ground. But neither of them let go and I ended up spiking in to the ground head first. I legit thought I had broken my neck. Everyone there got a fright, I saw stars and I needed a new pair of glasses after it but I was just relieved there was no damage done, so lucky.

    Me and my cousin used to call ourselves the OKPA (O'Keeffe Protection Agency) when we had wrestlin matches in school, this one time we set a guy up for a 3-D an hit it perfectly, he got up and started going mad as mid way through the 3-D he realised he was about to land in a big steaming pile of Dog poop that we had no idea was there......

    Think Id rather go through a flaming table ala Tommy Dreamer than land in dog poo ala your friend off a 3-D :pac:

    I remember the day I met one of the guys that would go on to become one of my best friends. We were standing outside the gates of our school, when suddenly he grabbed one of the other lads from behind with the Masterlock, doing the big swings and all. Still great friends a good 8 years later, and during the time we aren't both in college or something we go to either his or my house to watch the PPVs.

    I was doing a course a few years ago and discovered another wrestling fan in the class. We got into a worked shoot that we played out over a couple of months in the classroom, pretending to have fallen out. Then one day we stood nose to nose and I threw him a Rock Bottom.
