• On This Day In Pro Wrestling History (May 1, 1999) – Old School Wrestling Veteran Passed Away
On this day in 1999, we lost Old School Wrestling Veteran Jos LeDuc (Real name: Michel Pigeon) at the age of 54 due to natural causes.
Jos LeDuc wrestled for several different territories in Canada and the United States during the 60s, 70s & 80s, mostly teaming with his kayfabe brother Paul LeDuc as The Leduc Brothers.
He briefly wrestled for the World Wrestling Federation between March and July 1988, but most famously had a role in the first ever movie Vince McMahon & the WWF ever produced: “No Holds Barred” starring Hulk Hogan.
REST IN PEACE JOS LEDUC!

• Attitude Era Veteran & Impact World Champion Tease A Match
Below is a recent Twitter exchange between Old School Attitude Era Veteran Ken Shamrock and Impact Wrestling World Heavyweight Champion Brian Cage where they teased going at it:
It was an honor that night to be amongst the legends to win the #10lbsofgold #worldsmostdangerousman #godfatherofmma #TNA #NWA #NWAWorldsHeavyweightChampionship https://t.co/3puzgNzFyR

Am I the only one curious to see what would happen if the legendary @ShamrockKen and current @IMPACTWRESTLING World Champion @MrGMSI_BCage squared off? https://t.co/oZW8sTOIMc

Let me help with the curiosity, the outlook is as follows… 100% probability of #snap #crackle and #pop followed by heavy precipitation from @MrGMSI_BCage as I stand over him as the new @IMPACTWRESTLING World Champion!
— KEN SHAMROCK (@ShamrockKen) April 30, 2019
Predicted outcomes could have strong percentage of probability, Minus the standing over me as new impact champ. normally maybe, but since I'm a machine ur percentage goes way down. I got a degree in Steiner math, So I know the numbers dont lie, and they spell disaster for you.

A machine is man made, has faults and can only take so much. Sounds like it’s about time for #theworldsmostdangerousman to #breakthemachine
— KEN SHAMROCK (@ShamrockKen) April 30, 2019
Many have tried. All have failed. I got a lot of respect and admiration for you Ken, & it'd be an honor. But I think your time/ability to be able to break the machine has come & gone. Right now you look like the only things you're breaking is Jack & shit. And Jack left town
