Katz Files: My Weekly RAW Notebook!
The Katz Files – Arnie Katz
My Weekly RAW Notebook!
The Kingfish Arnie Katz presents his analysis and insights inspired by the 10/273 episode of RAW
A memorial placard for Special Delivery Jones filled the screen before the episode began.
The Kingfish Comments: How well I remember Special Delivery Jones from the old WWWF days. He was what might be called an “elite jobber,” along with Johnny Rodz. SF Jones didn’t win a lot of matches, but he worked hard and well in the ring, so it was always a good sign when he was the opposition for whomever WWWF was trying to put over at the time.
The closest current equivalent might be Sho Funaki. Jones had a few moments in the limelight during his long career, such as Kung Funaki is now enjoying, but he was basically one of the bit players in the wrestling show. Yet Special Delivery Jones embraced his role and made the most of it. He will be fondly remembered.

OWW Wrestler of the Weel: Awesome Kong!

OWW Wrestler of the Week: Awesome Kong
Our resident philosopher, Jay Shannon, takes a look at possibly the most dominant female wrestler to every compete in wrestling, Awesome Kong. Kong defeated Taylor Wilde to begin her second run as TNA Knockouts Champion. I am proud to award this week’s OWW: Wrestler of the Week award to Awesome Kong.
When one thinks of dominant women in wrestling, several names come to mind: Fabulous Moolah, Lita, Trish, and Beth Phoenix. The most destructive force in women’s wrestling has yet to step foot in a WWE ring. She was the NWA Women’s champion and is the two-time TNA Knockout champion. She’s a California girl, but doesn’t look anything like the stereotypical blonde beach bunny. She is Awesome Kong, the most brutal woman to ever step in the ring.
