The "Or Else" Podcast and the Baron Brothers

After a year of The "Or Else" Podcast with Tommy Else, we have reached a critical point in the history of Resistance Pro Wrestling. We have reached the infamous Minnesota Pub Crawl trip, the cancellation of the reality show, the departure of Billy Corgan and the fallout.

Tommy and I have reviewed and rehashed the journey. Along the way, we have been joined by some key players in the history of RPro. Recently, RPro co-owner Gabriel Baron joined us for what turned out to be a three part interview. 

Tommy and I have looked forward to having Gabe on the podcast for a long time. We all agreed this would not be a standard review of Gabe's journey into the world of wrestling. We all wanted to discuss what everyone wanted to know. While we did discuss a bit of the inner workings of RPro, we concentrated on meatier topics. Tommy and I addressed every major rumor, allegation and accusation and Gabe answered all.

This was all unedited, unrehearsed and uninhibited. Much like when we had "The Ego" Robert Anthony on a short time ago, we wanted our guest to just tell his story.

So many stories have been tossed around. Sides have been taken. Friendships have been lost. Still, nothing concrete has ever been stated publicly, until now.

Ego came on the podcast and spoke from his heart. He was professional, but still spoke his mind. Tommy and I were very proud of this interview and extremely grateful to Ego for his time and consideration.

Prior to recording, Gabe stated he was just going to be himself and he would answer anything. Like Ego, Gabe was open and honest about his side. In addressing the major issues, Gabe stated rational explanations, often offering proof behind his statements. Again, Tommy and I were proud of this interview and appreciative of Gabe.

Around 4 years after the Billy departure, this is still an emotional topic for all involved. Tommy and I always maintained we never took sides. We simply stayed where we were, because we saw no reason to leave. Neither of us have ever wavered on that stance. Neither Ego's nor Gabe's interview changed our minds.

I do not say Ego was wrong for leaving. That was his decision and (as he stated) it was more about not having fun than about other reasons. I cannot say anyone was wrong for leaving. Everyone had their own reasons. Tommy and I only say we had no reason to leave and could not understand why most of the dearly departed choose to abandon and crap on us for our decision.

Ego and Gabe have definitely given us plenty of new thoughts anbd Tommy and I will be reviewing these interviews and giving our thoughts on an upcoming episode of The "Or Else" podcast. More guests will be joining us. Tommy has reached out to many folks from RPro's past and has received a lot of positive responses. Also, RPro co-owner Jacques Baron is scheduled to get his turn to speak his truths.

We have come a long way with our podcast, but we have a way to go still. There is a lot of life left in this story and Tommy and I will continue to deliver it.

You can find all episodes of The "Or Else" Podcast on Soundcloud and the Skype interviews are also available on The "Or Else" Podcast channel on YouTube. Stay tuned, because we still have a lot more to bring you.

Friendly Encounters: Gilbert Gottfried, Jacques Baron and Haley Baron

Friendly Encounters is a weekly series featuring my friends who have met celebrities.

Jacques and Haley Baron are two more friends I have met through The Resistance (formerly RPro). I have seen them in good times and bad times with the wrestling company and all that went with it and I am happy to say they are looking happier and stronger than ever.

I admire the couple for sticking with what they believe. With the departure of Billy Corgan from RPro,they faced a tremendous amount of adversity. They lost friends, money, wrestlers and more.

While many abandoned ship, many of us stayed with Team Baron. I never thought of leaving. Everything I had at RPro was because of Jacques and Gabe and their families. This was my time to return the loyalty and friendship they had shown me over the years and I do not regret staying.

Jacques is quite good at impressions, especially wrestling stars, although he can also do some random sitcom stars (ask him about his Good Times medley). He's got a great mind for wrestling and for fun (and for wrestling fun). Mostly though, he's just a great guy. I have had many great moments and memories with and because of Jacques and I will always appreciate him.

Through it all, Haley has been right there. She's a rock.She might even be feistier than Jacques. They make a great pair.

A few weeks ago, they had a "date night" at a Gilbert Gottfried show. I love the picture. It's dark and a bit mysterious, yet their faces are illuminated.

This Friday, May 4, you can see both at The Resistance: Chapter Two: Revelations. Since it is a Star Wars themed night, you never know how they will look. You might see Princess Haley and Jacques Solo. You'll have to come out to see for yourself.

On the Beat at The Resistance Chapter One: Creation

The Resistance debuted last Saturday and it was a great start for the new wrestling company.  I was optimistic about Chapter One: Creation, but I didn't really know what to expect.

I did know that co-owners Jacques and Gabe Baron were working hard to make The Resistance unique and really fan-interactive.  I saw a lot of online polls and voting for wrestlers, matchups, stipulations and other fun stuff.  I saw a lot of social media hype from the incoming wrestlers, most of whom I had never previously seen in person.  Still, it remained to be seen how it would all come together on show night.

I am happy to report that Chapter One: Creation surpassed my expectations.  The show was exciting from start to finish and the fans were really into it.

Aside from being the debut, this show presented other challenges.  The Baron brothers introduced a wheel, which selected fans would spin to determine match stipulations.  With 24 options on the wheel, there really was no way for wrestlers to prepare for their match.  They had to deal with whatever the wheel spin produced.  As exciting as this was for fans, it was a challenge for the wrestlers, but they all did great.

I have to applaud all of the wrestlers a bit more.  They were all very polite and fan-friendly.  They seemed very happy to be there.  It was a lively, positive group.

The crowd was a bit bigger than I expected.  They were all hoping to win one of the raffles to actually be part of the action.  Longtime wrestling fans Eric Joseph Larkin and Jim Strong got to be a manager and a ring announcer, respectively.  I talked to them afterwards and they were legitimately giddy about the experience.

Another interesting thing about the fans was how they cheered.  As my broadcast partner Tommy Else and I talked about in our interview below, there were a lot of times when the fans seemed to be cheering for everyone.  I think that speaks to the wrestling talent and how hard they were working.  Nobody took the night off one bit.  The fans just cheered for it all.

Despite the frenzy of the first show,. I was able to get some great interviews.  We lead off with John Skyler, the Heavyweight champ  of The Resistance.  We also got co-owner Jacques Baron to give us his thoughts.  The very unique Darwin Finch gave us a few minutes of his time to discuss his style in and out of the ring.  Last (and not least), I got Tommy's thoughts on the night as we wrapped up the show.

It was an excellent first event, but of course, The Resistance has a lot of work to do to keep the momentum going.  Fortunately, I truly believe they will.  There was a real buzz in the air Saturday.  I have a lot of faith in the Baron brothers and everyone else involved.  I think they have created something unique and I am excited to see this all develop.

Friendly Encounters: David Naughton and Jacques Baron

Friendly Encounters is a weekly series featuring friends who have met celebrities.

This is a really cool "Friendly Encounters" edition.  First, as my friend Jacques would say, he is featured in it.  Jacques is cool (it's always good to butter up the boss).  Seriously, Jacques is a good dude and has been one of the highlights of my years working with Resistance Pro.  He is one of the very first people I met within the company.
He also happens to have an extensive collection of memorabilia.  One of his most unique pieces can never be sold however.
He has a tattoo of David Naughton on his right forearm.  Serious, look at the picture.  There is the star from "American Werewolf in London" etched into his forearm.  That is passion for the film!
I'm not the only one impressed with that either.  David Naughton himself enjoyed seeing the tattoo at a recent Days of the Dead convention.  I can't say it was the only such tattoo he has ever seen, but you can bet there haven't been many (if any).  Leave it to Jacques.
As a sidenote, I had no luck talking Jacques into adding a Johngy tattoo to his other arm.

Jacques Baron of Resistance Pro at Days of the Dead Chicago 2015

One week from today, Resistance Pro Wrestling returns.  "resolution" will be held at the V.F.W. 

7256 W 63rd St, Summit, IL.  After a three month absence, I am excited about the upcoming show.  Even more excited though is RPro Co-Owner Jacques Baron.

As has been well-documented here and elsewhere, RPro has been through a lot in its' four years of existence.  There has been some good and some bad.  It hasn't been the usual infancy of a wrestling company, but RPro is still standing.  This is testament to the Baron brothers and their passion for the company and the people involved.

At the Days of the Dead convention a couple months ago, I spent a lot of time with Jacques at his booth.  It is always a blast talking to Jacques.  He is one of the funniest people I know and he does some killer impressions.

This conversation went beyond just amusement though.  We talked a bit about RPro and the future.  I saw the spark in his eyes.  I saw the love for the company.  Heck, I didn't have to see it, he stated it (again).  Jacques is not shy about expressing himself (good or bad).  Sometimes that openness has gotten him in trouble, but fortunately, it hasn't changed him.

Jacques has made mistakes.  (Who among us hasn't?)  I still firmly believe that his heart has always been in the right place.  I stayed with RPro, because I believe in RPro and I believe in the people there.

"Resolution" kicks off te new year with some great matches on the card.  I am excited about the matches, but even more excited just to see my friends all together at the show.  Some of the best fun is the pre-show banter.

If you haven't been to an RPro show, I encourage you to try one.  There is a roster of talented young, wrestlers who will bust their butts to put on a great show. 

RPro is back.  Happy New Year indeed!

Jacques Baron and me in Schaumburg, IL-November 2015.

Friendly Encounters: Jacques Baron and the bWo

Friendly Encounters is a weekly series featuring friends who have met celebrities.

Jacques Baron would have fit nicely with the bWo (Blue World Order) in ECW.  Pictured with the Blue Meanie, Nova and Stevie Richards, Jacques looks great in the blue.
Actually Jacques is friends with the members of the bWo.  They shared a booth at a Wizard World convention a few years back.  This is the same convention when I first became aware of Jacques and Resistance Pro Wrestling.
I see these four and I see four great guys.  I also swee four funny men who give great interviews.  I interviewed te bWo guys individually and all were a blast.  Jacques is also always up for some fun during interviews (and more fun off camera).
Nova (aka Mike Bucci) has an incredible wrestling mind.  He is mostly out of wrestling, choosing to concentrate on his regular job.  He could jump back into wrestling at any time.  I am sure the offers are out there.  He is also one of the most genuine men I have met.  I have heard nothing but praise about Bucci.
Blue Meanie (aka Brian Heffrom) is a good dude.  When I went as Blue Johngy for Halloween, we exchanged tweets.  The guy is funny and talented.  Don't let his weight fool you.  He could go in the ring.  Good for him now that he has lost a bunch of that weight.
Richards is probably the most active wrestling-wise of the three.  Little Stevie is still in incredible shape.  My favorite memory of Richards is from the Blue Meanie interview.  The camera panned around and caught Richards enjoying his salad.  He stopped mid-bite and remained frozen until the camera was off of him.  It was pure lunacy.
Then there is Jacques.  I love the guy.  He (and his brother Gabe) have welcomed me into the RPro family (and their families).  He always has a kind word and a sharp wit.
This Friendly Encounter isn't so much about them meeting.  They have met many times.  This is about four great guys who gave me fun memories together and individually, in and out of the ring.

On the Beat with Gabe and Jacques Baron at Days of the Dead 2014

I always have a great time interviewing the Baron brothers.  Jacques and Gabe Baron of Resistance Pro wrestling are always good for some interesting and witty banter.

At the recent Days of the Dead, I caught up with them again.  We talked a little horror, a little wrestling and a little nonsense.

I have written many pieces on Resistance Pro and I will continue to do so.  The Baron brothers deserve all of the press they can get, but I don't write just for them.  I write for the other workers at RPro.  I write for the loyal fans of RPro.  I also write for the potential fans out there who have not experienced RPro yet.  I cannot encourage you enough to come out and enjoy a show.

The next show is "Animals" on Saturday, January 17 at 115 Bourbon Street in Merrionette Park, IL..  Until then, please enjoy the interview with Gabe and Jacques.

Friendly Encounters: Jacques and Gabe Baron Meet Jesse White

This is a weekly feature about friends who have met celebrities.

The Baron brothers and Resistance Pro wrestling have been doing great things for the Chicago communities since RPro's debut.  School fundraisers, the Positive OutReach Program (POP), special nights honoring various folks at their events and more are just a few of the ways they are giving back.
Earlier this year, they were on the receiving end of something special.  Jesse White, the 37th Secretary of State for Illinois, presented RPro with an award for all they have done.
White is a well-known politician, although ironically perhaps not as famous as the Jesse White Tumblers.  White has done great things with the youth of the area and he recognizes others for doing similar.
Resistance Pro isn't just about wrestling.  It isn't just a business here to take your buck, put on a show and leave.  I have seen their many efforts and actually have been part of several of them.  I see the effort and passion that everyone involved has.  This is the real deal.  It isn't about cameras and press.  They do what they do for people, not for the praise.
Jesse White recognized them with an award.  While not as prestigious, I am shining the JohngysBeat/com light on them today.  As 2014 comes to an end, I look forward to a great 2015 with RPro.

Friendly Encounters: Jacques Baron and Jason Priestley

This is a weekly feature about friends who have met celebrities.

Last week, I featured Gabe Baron and Paul Williams, a bit of an unlikely combo.  Today, I am giving equal time to Jacques Baron and Jason Priestley, another sort of unlikely duo.
Priestley is best known for his role on Beverly Hills 90210.  His resume includes far more than just that show though.  He has acted and directed many projects steadily since his 90210 days.  He even has carved a bit of a career on the race track.
While Gabe eloquently described his interest in Paul Williams, Jacques was a bit less descriptive and far more succinct.
"I love me some Jason Priestley," he posted on Facebook.
What else needs to be said?  Who doesn't like Priestley?  He is a good guy, by all accounts.  Actually, the same can be said for Jacques.
Maybe the two of them are more similar than one would think.  I could see Jacques hanging at the Peach Pit.

Friendly Encounters: Jacques Baron Meets Heather Langenkamp

This is a weekly series featuring friends who have met celebrities.

I have been a fan of Heather Langenkamp for years.  I have met her a few times at various conventions and I think she is incredibly cute.
Jacques Baron of Resistance Pro met her at Days of the Dead a few months ago.  He got the picture below and he proclaimed that she is "hot."  I cannot disagree.  Jacques is a great judge of talent.
As co-owner of R Pro, Jacques deals with a lot of talented wrestlers on his roster.  He also deals with hundereds more who want to be in R Pro.  He must be doing something right, because R Pro is going stronger than ever as it enters its third year of business.  One might say that R Pro is "hot."
Is R Pro hotter than Heather?  I know that is a tough question and hard to actually compare.  I have spent a lot of time at R Pro events, talking to the talent and watching the action.  It would only be fair for me to spend that much time with Heather and then judge things.  Oh I like my chances of accomplishing that, but I can dream.
Maybe I should just rely on the big smile Jacques has.  Then again, I usually see that same smile after every R Pro show.
I guess we can just call it a tie, but if Heather wants to plead her case, I am open to accompanying her to an R Pro event.  Now that is a perfect evening!

On the Beat with R Pro's Positive Outreach Program

Between games at the Kicks for a Cure event last summer, Resistance Pro's C Red talked about starting a Positive Outreach Program.  He had a vision of R Pro reaching out to youngsters.  A few weeks ago, that vision became a reality when we appeared at the Southside Occupational Academy.  Since then, we have held events at Fenger High School and at Neil Armstrong Elementary School.
I have been privileged and proud to have been at each event.  I have seen the grateful students and teachers. I have also seen the proud, humble and emotional members of the R Pro family.
Each event was a wonderful experience.  Believe me, I got far much more than I gave at each event.  I am sure my friends at R Pro all feel similarly.  Rather than me speak for them, I am including interviews from them right after the events.  I love the passion and emotion.
R Pro is doing something special here.  They are making a difference.  They are proving they are not just a another wrestling company.
After you watch the interviews, head over to the R Pro POP (Positive Outreach Program) Facebook page.  Give it a "LIKE" and show R Pro your support for this great cause.

On the Beat with Resistance Pro's Positive Outreach Program

JohngysBeat.com is all about meeting celebrities.  Over the years, I have written about hundreds of celebrities.  Today, I am writing about being with a music legend, two wrestling company owners and several wrestlers, but more important than that, I was with students from the Southside Occupational Academy for the debut of the R Pro Positive Outreach Program.  The full report, including an interview with C Red, the man behind POP, can be found on the Patch at On the Beat with Resistance Pro's Positive Outreach Program.
R Pro's Creative Director Billy Corgan (also of the Smashing Pumpkins) believed in POP so much that he took time from his insanely busy schedule to be there and speak.  R Pro owners Jacques and Gabriel Baron were both there.  Wrestlers Eric St. Vaughn, Matt Knicks, Marshe Rockett and Suge D were also joined by Michael Bradley and Stoney McGee (both of many roles within R Pro).  This was a large assemblage of talent and all believed enough in the cause and in R Pro to make this happen.
The goal of POP is to be a positive force in the community.  I have seen for the last two years how things don't begin and end with the ring of the bell.  It might sound cliche, but R Pro is really one giant family.  People don't just show up for wrestling and then leave.  We see each other, talk regularly, support each other and do the things that a family does.  I have never felt more accepted by any organization.
The goal of POP and R Pro was to be a positive in the lives of these students (and others in the future).  I gave a bit of my time and walked away feeling more positive than I ever had before.
Thank you C Red.  Thank you R Pro.  I love you all.

Friendly Encounters: Jacques and Haley Baron Meet Nikki Sixx

This is a weekly series about friends who have met celebrities.

I have written many times about Resistance Pro Wrestling.  It has been a real pleasure covering R Pro over the last year or so.  It has been even better getting to know the people behind R Pro.
Jacques Baron is one of the Baron brothers (aka the owners of R Pro).  Jacques was the first person I connected with in attempting to start covering R Pro.  I met him at the first show.  I also met his wife Haley.
Right from the beginning, they treated me like a part of the R Pro extended family.  Not only was the Baron family hands-on with R Pro, they are very fan-friendly and interactive.
Over the last year, I have been to most of the R Pro shows and a few after-parties and other R Pro events.  The Baron family has never been too busy to stop and talk for a minute.  They really make everyone feel like a valued customer.  I really think if they could, they would invite everyone over for dinner.
R Pro just celebrated its one year anniversary.  There was such a buzz in the air and everyone looked so happy and so proud.  I was excited for everyone at R Pro, but especially the Barons family.  While it is true that a company succeeds together, a successful company needs good people at the top.  R Pro is successful and they have great people at the top.
It has been a pleasure getting to know Jacques and Haley.  I am proud to consider them friends.  I lok forward to a great second year.
Below is a picture of Jacques and Haley with Nikki Sixx.  Jacques called it a "mark out" moment.  I can understand that feeling.  I have had many "mark out" moments at R Pro.
Thank you to Jacques, Haley and the rest of the R Pro for making me feel like part of it all.  Happy holidays to you all and I wish you the best in 2012.  I'll be there as the ride continues!

Resistance Pro's Anniversary

Next Friday, November 30, I will be attending an anniversary party. This is no average anniversary party though. It is Resistance Pro Wrestling's one year anniversary and I am sure it will be a big celebration! I first learned of Resistance Pro at Wizard World 2011. Harry Smith, a third generation wrestler and part of the legendary Hart family, was manning their booth. Smith would eventually become R Pro's first Heavyweight champ.
I attended their first show a few months later at Excalibur. One show and I was hooked. I was so impressed with the production quality, the excellent matches and the fan-friendliness of the Baron family (the folks behind R Pro). Over the next year, I attended most of their shows and got to know everyone, including the Baron family, the wrestlers and the extended R Pro family of staffers. I interviewed many of the wrestlers, too. My nephew Matt and I even became part of their street team and helped with the poster distribution.
The Baron family aren’t just owners. They are now my friends. So, too, are women’s champ Melanie Cruise, Eric St. Vaughn, Nikki St. John and so many more. If it sounds like I have had a blast, it is because I have. I am not alone either. Matt and my friend Scott Beatty are also hooked, along with a ton of other fans.
That is a direct result of the passion that the Baron family has for R Pro and the passion they pass on to everyone involved.
Where else can you find the wrestlers posing for pictures and signing autographs before and after every show? Where else can you get to know the owners and the wrestling talent? Who else has a musical director in Sheri Shaw (along with Brian Judy, her sstaria partner)?
Where else will you see legendary wrestlers actually wrestling, like Vader, XPac and John Morrision, who with “The Ego” Robert Anthony, gave us a “Match of the Year” performance. Anthony would later win the Heavyweight title, which he still holds.
This all brings us to Friday, November 30 at the Teamster Auditorium, where R Pro will celebrate their one year anniversary at an event called "Sad Wings of Destiny."  Jake “the Snake” Roberts and Amazing Kong will be there, as well as Billy Corgan, R Pro's Creative Director and lead man of the Smashing Pumpkins.  I am sure R Pro will provide a few more surprises next Friday, too.
Several hundred fans will pack the place and be part of the anniversary event. Notice I wrote “be part of”, because at R Pro, the fans matter. Everyone truly wants to put on a great show for the fans! R Pro cares. What a unique concept for any business! Then again, the Baron family is unique!
So to Resistance Pro Wrestling and all involved, I say Happy Anniversary."  To all fans or potential fans, I say come out and enjoy the night. This is a celebration after all!

On the Beat with Resistance Pro Wrestling at Wizard World 2012

When Matt and I arrived at Wizard World 2012 for our pre-event meeting of official video bloggers, we put in our claim for the Resistance Pro Wrestling booth.  Who would be better at talking to the R Pro family than Matt and me, sort of the odd cousins of the family.  Because of our previous work with R Pro, the fine folks at Wizard World handed the R Pro duties to us.
We started off by talking to Jacques Baron, who along with brother Gabe, is the man behind Resistance.  Jacques is a cool guy who has welcomed us with open arms.  We have seen R Pro grow in so many great ways in less than a year.  Jacques is certainly responsible for a lot of that success.  Check out ResistancePro.com to learn more about this exciting wrestling organization.

While Eric St. Vaughn has yet to make his wrestling debut, his presence at ringside is certainly noticed.  He also has a large contingent of fans at every event especially the Johngy's Beat crew.  We look forward to watching his career develop.  To follow him and get his updates, check out the Eric St. Vaughn Facebook page.

R Pro's Women's Champ Melanie Cruise has held the belt since Day 1 of R Pro.  She is one of our favorite interview subjects.  For more info on Melanie and to follow her career, check out Melanie Cruise's Facebook page.

Nikki St. Johnstarted in R Pro as an associate of Melanie Cruise.  Now Nikki is gunning for Melanie's title.  Another of our favorites, Nikki shows her big heart with her work for the Animal House Shelter in Huntley (IL).  Go to Nikki St. John's Facebook page to keep up with all things Nikki.

"The Ego" Robert Anthony has been involved in some of R Pro's most memorable matches.  The Ego definitely has a bright future.  To learn more about him and keep updated, go to the Robert Anthony Facebook page.

Jay Bradley is one of the first breakout stars at R Pro.  Jay puts on 5 star matches with everyone he faces and is currently in the thick of the title picture.  Jay is bound for stardom.  Follow him on the Jay Bradley Facebook page.

Michael Bradley is part-comedian, part wrestler-in-training and an all around great guy.  Like all members of the R Pro family, he is all over the place at each event.  Check out Michael Bradley's Facebook page to keep up with his latest activities.

Jacques Baron and brother Gabe are the men behind Resistance Pro Wrestling.  These guys work tirelessly to put out the best product possible.  They are definitely "hands-on" and highly visible and active at each event.  They have been great to JohngysBeat.com since the beginning and we love the entire R Pro family.  Head over to ResistancePro.com to learn all about this exciting wrestling company!

Resistance Pro is having their next event, "Just a Game", tomorrow night at Excalibur in Chicago (IL).  Gene Snitsky is on the card, Johngy's Beat will be in the audience and you should be there, too!

On the Beat with Jacques Baron of Resistance

I first heard about Resistance Pro Wrestling at last year's Wizard World.  Pretty much since then, I have been trying to get an interview with the Baron brothers, co-owners of R Pro.  I finally got that interview last month at Obsession, R Pro's fourth event.
Don't misunderstand me.  I am not in the least bit upset it took that long.  If you attend any of their shows, you will see how busy these men are.  I am just grateful that the interview happened at all.
Seriously, these men and all around them are busy from start to finish on event night.  They are definitely hands on owners.  Last month, Jacques was at the ticket counter before the show.  After the show, both brothers were coordinating interviews and doing other such managerial things.  Despite being a blur of activity, they always have time to greet the fans.
I am so impressed with Resistance Pro Wrestling.  They have great talent on their roster and bring in excellent superstars as added talent.  There are great rivalries already building.  Their matches are full of solid action.  Everyone involved with Resistance gives it their all and really reaches out to make each event special and fun for the fans.
We really appreciate Jacques giving us his time and we encourage everyone to check out Resistance.com and also a live event of R Pro!  You can also get info and updates on the Resistance Facebook page and follow Resistance on twitter.
