After 2 1/2 years absence i have decided to return to wrestling, no im not quitting porn, just reuniting with my first love. i went to a show my old trainer was at and had a bit of the old nostalgia strike and after the beginning of the new year... when my pneumonia is gone, i am gonna sart training again and knocking off the old ring rust so i can go back to wrestling. keep y'all posted.

Thanks for that update, we were worried about you.

Really.

Rob, you wrestle professionally?

yeah, used to.... i have been involved with wrestling since i was a cameraman for an indy at 16 and started training at 17.

who was the wrestler attacked and got injured, that Rob Black madness. What was name of that league he was involved with, didn't seem professional. Not even on the WCW level at the time.

Is WWE a goal?

LOL

the first part im gonna stary out of but the league was XPW... was never involved with them.
asking if WWE is a goal is an odd question, i liked them long ago and i have several people i trained with who work there now, i also know many people in TNA and honestly i would probably fit better there (X division) but in essence it is a passion of mine that i love doing even making zero money on the indy's. so my goal is just to do it and enjoy myself.

to be honest i think at this point in my life i am begining to realize there is more to life than mking money and getting rich. its about doing what you love even if you never live in a mansion... just do what you love and fuck everyone else.

I don't think I could watch you get your balls caved in!

Gene Ross's former site was hard to read, that's why I asked about old stuff.

I saw Paul Wight ( Big Show ) in college and he couldn't play basketball to save his life. Now years later he's twice the size and hopefully fat in his pocketbook. What's a guy that large supposed to do?

Considering how much media people are paid, athletes will never attain such riches, the amount of working out and getting injured during training sometimes becomes a meaningless thing. 16 games in a NFL season few of them are making $1 Million per game.

Actors on Friends made $1 Million per show.

Katie Curic..is that her name on NBC..$65 Million contract to sit on her ass and her content, stuff she talks about are sometimes athletes who will never achieve what she makes. The hell it is physically making a professional sports team is amazing.

Local talking heads make more than semi pro baseball, basketball and hockey players.

I'm sure the WWE commentators make more than the wrestlers. Work getting into the ring is worth pennies compared to a face sitting on their ass talking about wrestlers.

Ya'll in California have to build two or three stories up. Midwest we have basements, more space per square foot. Get more house and its not a mansion. Lot sizes are bigger too.

If you could work a "season" and then live out of state, that will expand your pocketbook.

thats why i moved back to fl, the costs and taxes are all better. most indy wrestlers make maybe $20 a show and in the WWE the contracts are decent, but not spectacular. a few make a lot of money, your big names like Triple H, etc, others make enough to live comfortably but with the travel and injuries it is a wearing job. as far as commentators money, its ok, but not great. most of the commetators have other jobs within the company that they do where they make most of the money.

Gen: dont worry, my balls can take a beating :P

huh? 252 million for a-rod? manny got 8 years for 160 million, and mickleson, tiger, beckham, schumacher all make sick amounts. 252 million dollars is real money, like "i manage a hedge fund and that's a real chagall on da wall" money. there are maybe a half-dozen that will get paid close to that for just acting, throw in mick jagger, oprah and madonna and it's pretty even between the michael jordans and the entertainers.

Get back in the ring and be a heel. I'd go back, but I cant do that and MMA at the same time. I would rather fight now, cause I know the wrestling window is wider for me than MMA.

What will your ring name be? Are you going to wear a mask or some shit like that? Maybe Rob Black can aome out of retirement and manage you.

no i wont wear a mask and ill probably wrestle as myself, Rob Longshot.... admittedly i had some bad gimmicks before but now i gots a killer one

i love being a hell, im a natural heel, especially with some of the redneck crowds down here... i just channel Kevin Sullivan for some inspiration.
