While you're looking for GREAT Blackman matches, make sure you catch his feud with Shane McMahon.

It's mirror image but its watchable.

That'll, rightfully, always be remembered, if only for that bump Shane took.

Shamrock and Blackman for mine are 2 of the more underrated wrestlers from that Era.

Blackman vs Shamrock was always extremely fun to watch, and Blackman in the hardcore division was insanely good entertainment.

Even Blackman and Al Snow in Head Cheese brings back great memories.

<3 Blackman.

Haha, Head Cheese..

Forgot about that

They were great value.

Had the charisma of a lego brick, and was worse on the mic than Lance Storm.

You know wrestling is struggling when people start acknowledging a career for a tag team jobber and a low-mid card mixed martial arts expert with a side of hardcore.

Loved the matches Blackman and Shamrock put on. I remember when they had a match in the garage with cars surrounding them as the ring (iron circle match), great stuff to watch.

had no character/mic skills, but was still decent enough to work a match

Anything that involved Head Cheese was golden

Blackman was good because although he didn't have a "Pro Wrestling" background, he was willing to take some legitimate shots and some insane bumps just because he could. That's worthy of being appreciated in my opinion.

 

[TheGreatBambino]

ah the old hardcore tittle divison, wrestlers who they had no ideas for.

 

[Cleavy]

didn't he end up with concussion issues? (or am I confusing him with someone else)

I think you're thinking of Christopher Nowinski

He fared better than Tank Abbott and Dan Savern at the least.

I seem to remember a backstage segment when he used to carry his kendo stick around with him at all times - the Big Show (I think?) asked him "Do you sleep with those things?" to which he replied "Sometimes"
