    An Original Thought (Nov. 21, 2008)

    Friday, November 21, 2008, 04:36 PM EST [An Original Thought]

    I just wanted to update everyone on my progress of being more internet friendly. I have recently purchased a laptop computer. This Survivor Series weekend, my good friend Joey Styles is gonna show me how to be able to comment and answer some questions that get posted on my WWE Universe page.

    So by next week i should be better educated and will be more proactive on my site. I would like to tell everyone that this WWE Universe page is the only way to be able to contact me.

    I have been told by people that there are several Myspace and Facebook pages where people are claiming to be me. THEY ARE NOT.

    I appreciate all fans spread the word that this is the only place to hear and see what Tommy Dreamer is doing.

    Thanks for reading

    An Original Thought (Nov. 5, 2008)

    Wednesday, November 5, 2008, 04:34 PM EST [An Original Thought]

    October 28th, 2008 was a very special day. It marked my 19th year in the wrestling business and I owe it all to my fans. 

    You have stuck by me through good times and in bad and continue to let me live out my dream.  For that I am truly humbled and grateful. 

    Thank you and I will continue to fight the fight for you. 

    Thanks very much,
    Tommy Dreamer

    An Original Thought (July 21, 2008)

    Monday, July 21, 2008, 02:20 PM EST [An Original Thought]

    I know I promised a very controversial Extreme Thought. I have run into two problems, and am missing two facts that I need to prove my claims.

    I still have that old ECW mentality of never lie to your fans, so I don't. I can't stand when I hear other wrestlers ramble on and on and their story is factually untrue. (Insert your own wrestler interview ramblings that you have read before right here. I choose one of the Ultimate Warrior's many.) I digress.

    Hang tight, and I will hope to have my facts soon. So I will let you in on two inside the locker room stories.

    1. Many People have asked me about the frying pans and if they were real. The answer is yes. Solid steel and Teflon. Mark Henry really did fold them, and he really is the World's Strongest Man. I really did bend and break that frying pan over his head. No Hollywood props; just real steel.

    2. This, my friends, is a real shocker. When Mark Henry slammed me on the floor two weeks ago, as I rolled over to check on Colin Delaney, I asked him if he was OK ... then I smelled a horrible smell. I asked Colin if he had farted because it was bad. He, in return, said, "I thought it was you." Then as I was still on the floor, I began to think, was I so disrespected that I just got the World's Strongest fart dropped on me? Does Mark Henry really hate me so much that he would slam me on the floor and poop on me? What about Tony Atlas? Did he drop a bomb on Colin and me? He does look like he still eats a lot of protein. I was really angry and went to the back to calm down. This took about 10 minutes or so, and I took a shower. However, when I went to put my clothes away, my underwear in particular, I thought I had sat on a brownie. It was I who had the **** knocked out of me both literally and figuratively.

    "The force of the slam knocked the **** out of you" is what the attending physician had said. I have had a lot of things happen to me in wrestling, but never this. Why the hell didn't I know it was me? Now that, my friends, is an extreme mystery.
     
    I am sorry for sharing ... but thanks for reading

    History lesson coming...

    Friday, June 27, 2008, 04:01 PM EST [An Original Thought]

    To quote from Matt Striker, your WWE teacher, "It is time for a history lesson."

    In 1994, Michael Fay, an 18-year-old American citizen was tried and convicted of vandalism in Singapore. His sentence was to be publicly caned with a Singapore cane. This act gained much outrage in the United States and grabbed national headlines.

    What resulted from that incident was the first-ever Singapore Cane Match, meaning the loser of the match had to be publicly caned between The Sandman vs. Tommy Dreamer. The result was I took 10 lashes (I actually took 12, Michael Fay only had to get four). The end result was how much it hurt, but my hardcore legacy began to grow.

    At that time this also put ECW on the map and the company that was counterculture and hip to the new trends started to grow due to its rebellious nature.

    You see, ECW was all about revolution and change. I was the leader of that rebellion. Now, with ECW being part of WWE, there is no reason for a revolution, but that doesn't mean I am not still a rebel. I still want what is best for ECW and a lot of times I feel I get stopped in my effort — but I keep on fighting and trying.

    In two weeks, I, Tommy Dreamer, am going to give my uncensored opinion of the state of ECW and my own career. To quote Y2J Chris Jericho, I am going to “break the walls down.” Actually, if there is a line to cross, I will cross it.

    The walls will be destroyed from their foundation. Make sure you tell your friends to read this and prepare to watch history be made again.

    Thanks for reading.
