I posted a column on 4/11 asking if you all wanted to know the names and the URLS (locations) of the wrestlers I have verified are REAL on MySpace.com. MySpace is a huge, multimillion member community that is not well policed and fakes abound. I have started to verify who is and isn't real on there and have several names of wrestlers and divas from mostly TNA and indies and a few from WWE (Not many are on there as of now) that I could give you so you won't waste your time talking to a fake.

But I need to know if anyone is interested in a list (which will be added to as I continue to verify people) of these people and where you can find them on MySpace.

My poll question is:

Would you be interested in a list of wrestlers and divas from WWE, TNA, and the indies who are on MySpace.com? Only verified real names will be posted. Please click on one answer below.

Thanks!

The column can be read here: http://www.bellaonline.com/articles/art13403.asp

Would you be interested in a list of real MySpace wrestlers and divas?

Feel free to discuss this topic here as well. I get so many emails from people asking me if they are really talking to the legitimate wrestler or a fake and, sadly, most of the time, the legit wretsler writes me back or calls me back dumbfounded and has no clue he was having an intense conversation with anyone online.

That stings! <img src="/images/graemlins/mad.gif" alt="" />

Hi Patty,

I think we discussed this once online. I said something to the fact that you can be anyone or anything online? You should know I am the real deal, "The Greatest Wrestler wannabe of all time", and legitimately working toward that end. I posted me pretty mug in my profile for ya, and you can contact Playboy Buddy Rose or Colonel DeBeers for verification. Oh! I am sorry. You were talking about current SUCCESSFUL wrestlers. Gotcha! Lol, miss me in the chat room yet? Great idea though about posting the "real" ones though, would they be happy for you doing that? You could single-handedly drive a gazillion people to them therefore swamping the poor saps. Just a thought!

I think what you're proposing is an excellent idea, and in many cases, I can even help you with the verification process.

If you know of any legitimate sites/myspace accounts of wrestlers and divas, please email me.

I have a few I have to verify but I believe they are the real deals. Still, until I am 100% sure, I won't post them.

Patty, I have emailed you with something, maybe it will help?

I think it's a great idea to put these out there, so people can have a one-stop shop for this kind of thing.

I think that this idea would be great, not been on myspace yet myself RL commitments have been taking all my online time up of late. So actually knowing ahead of the game some of the real wrestlers and some of the fake ones because we know who the real ones are would be great. Kids would love that as well.. Good idea Patty..

I just came across a few more I didn't know were there. Caught up with an old and dear friend in the business. I will continue to keep track of the people in the business, whether it is in the big promotions or indies and will post a list in a week or so. Then will add to it as more people are discovered.

MySpace is where it is at for the moment as far as networking and getting the word out about things which is why many workers are there. To network with fans and to interact with them. I rather enjoy it.

I do NOT enjoy the silly letters I get from guys asking me if I "webcam" though. I make it clear I am there to network and for friends. PERIOD. That's the downfall of that community. Everyone wants to hook up. And the fake celebrities. But I am verifying them one by one and there is quite an impressive list of workers on there and some divas as well.

I signed up for My Space, with all the talk lately and all. I thought I would check it out. So far I don't really care for it. Maybe it will grow on me over time, if I go back and spend time there that is, and that is a big "IF". I like Bella Online and On The Fringe WAY better, those are more my speed. Besides, if I want to get harrassed, all I have to do is open my mouth and talk, don't need unsolicited harrassment for that. It's a gift I have.

I actually was going to leave MySpace many times but I have so many friends there from the business who I can keep up with, send messages to, and banter with, that I can't leave. Plus I have other people on my friends list I enjoy talking with.

It can be a little overwhelming, a little offensive at times, and time consuming. But I am there to network and it is a great place to do so.

Others are there to hook up which I steer clear of at all times. <img src="/images/graemlins/angel.gif" alt="" />

Patty,

Well, networking is a big plus, lord knows I need to do a lot of that, so far I am having good success at me selfish self promotion. Other then that, I don't have friends established on My Space. I don't know, maybe I'll spend some time there, we'll see.

Oh, by the way, I see them horns holding up that Halo on the smiley up there. And the halo is a little bent and rusty too. LOL

LOL Mikieboy, this may be true, but I am still growing in my role of the "KING OF THE BINGO HALLS". I have a show coming up in May for WAPW, if I can get medical clearance from my doctor that is, I had a blood clot in my leg that went into my lung, so it's kinda up in the air. But if I make it, my crown will sit a little straighter!

Thanks Mikieboy! When we do the show it, of course, get's taped, and then hilights are put to a music soundtrack. After this years show (I didn't wrestle in it last year)they will put the clip on http://www.wapw.net, and you all can see the Great One in action!

The WAPW show is slated for sometime in May. No concrete word yet as to when, but it WILL be in May. The promoter is Ed Baker and he is working very hard to put this thing together, or so I hear. I will keep you all posted!

Yes. I can't believe how many people have come forward with their URLS (I posted a bulletin on myspace).

It may be a long list that has to be cut into a couple of sections. Perhaps WWE and TNA people and then Indy people.

I won't do that for a while because I need to post a news column first though.

This might be a fun thing. If the real wrestlers have the time and don't mind, I say go for it.

(couldn't get the polls to work for me. I'm lucky I was able to get back here at all)

Happy Easter!

They are on MySpace to promote themselves and reach out to the fans. I have had many write to me asking me to include them in the list.

As far as not getting updates, RicG, do you mean message board replies? I know the only ones I get are ones I have earmarked as my favorite topics. I am not sure if it is different from non moderators. I will look into it and get back to you here.

I do know you have to post in a thread to get topic replies though.

Here's my problem. I am not technically proficient in any way, but am pretty sure there's a way to subscribe to the topics of my choice. I tried using the reminder thingee, but so far, it hasn't helped. I tried using that option for this thread and the chat thread, both of which I have posted in. I really need to get out more and start learning something, because the world continues to pass me by.

Have you checked your spam folder? They could be going straight to spam and you don't even know it. I get responses to threads I mark as favorites. I only mark a few or else I would have a very full inbox and I am here anyway checking things out.

Definitely check your spam or junk mail.

Sometimes Bella goes to my inbox (Yahoo), other times it finds it's way into my "BULK" folder. I never used to open my bulk folder, just erase it straight away, but I have learned to check it anyway.

Well, here's my problem. I haven't figured out how to mark a thread as a favorite. Sorry I'm such a dummy. I'm sure it's easy as pie, but damned if I can do it.

For me, there is a little box under this one that says "Extra Information". I have no idea if everyone sees that. Under that it says how many people are on the forum, the name of the moderator (me) and then it says "Favorite Topic (toggle)".

You click on the Favorite Topic thread and it will ask you to confirm that you want to make a topic a favorite. If you do, you will get email responses.

At least that is how it works for me.

Well, I wouldn't say I was smart for one. Friendly on a good day, but smart? I am starting to wonder what my Dad used to mean when he would say "Son, if it wasn't for the lack of it, you wouldn't have any common sense at all".

It seems common sense just ain't so, umm, common.

No flame wars, no trouble makers, no disrespect here. It really is a good place to go when you want to be with friendly, smart fans. I wish more who are reading, would post. We don't bite! (Hard anyway). <img src="/images/graemlins/queen.gif" alt="" />

I'm going to assume the ECW column is coming first, and then this one (possibly, unless some more big dramatic stuff happens!). I'd hate to be Patty now, with all the news that's happening at the moment!

I am compiling but wow, the workers are cropping up everywhere! The WWE guys are few and far between but TNA guys are all over as are indy guys and some older veterans. But I need to verify them all.

My page on MySpace has only real wrestlers on it.

I will give you the address when I remember it.

You can look up Patty_on_the_fringe or Patty Therre and it will take you to my page.

I am working on ECW now but have a PowerSlam deadline to meet and two interviews to conduct so tomorrow I may be able to post the ECW story - it has changed 10 times since I started compiling the info.

I will have something new up Wednesday I hope.

And then I will do the MySpace thing and just add to it as more people are verified. *whew*
