  • Samoan Submission Machines
    Samoan Submission Machines: Grappling with Representations of Samoan Identity in Professional Wrestling Theo Plothe1 Savannah State University [email protected] Amongst the myriad of characters to step foot in the squared circle, perhaps no ethnic group has been as celebrated or marginalized as the Samoans who have made their names in professional wrestling. The discussion of Samoan identity in the context of sport has examined Maori identity and masculinity in New Zealand, among other topics, but there has yet to be work which considers Samoans within professional wrestling. This research investigates Samoan identity through a content analysis of televised wrestling matches. This research identifies six primary stereotypes under which Samoan identity is portrayed. These portrayals of Samoan characters, I argue, flatten the representation of this ethnic group within wrestling and culture at large. Keywords: Samoans, identity, representation, gimmicks Introduction Among the myriad of characters to step foot in the squared circle, perhaps no ethnic group has been as celebrated or marginalized as the Samoans who have made their names in professional wrestling. This research investigates the identity of Samoans within professional wrestling, and the different ways they are constructed and presented to audiences. “Gimmicks,” characters portrayed by a wrestler “resulting in the sum of fictional elements, attire and wrestling ability” (Oliva and Calleja 3) utilized by Samoans have run the gamut from the wild uncivilized savage, to the sumo (both in villainous Japanese and comically absurd iterations), to the ultra-cool mogul who wears silk shirts and fancy shoes. Their ability to cut promos, an important facet of the modern gimmick allowing wrestlers to address their opponents and storylines, varies widely as well, but all lie within their Samoan identity.

    el Fans, here we are at 500! The BRL’s 500 to be exact and what a trip it has been. Imagibash 15 was a huge success and the action got so intense that your old pal the Teamster had to get involved. The exclusive coverage of that ppv is in this very issue so I won’t spoil it and give away the ending like how the ship sinks in Titanic. The Johnny B. Cup is down to just four and here are the representatives from each of the IWAR’s promotions; • BRL Final: Sir Gunther Kinderwacht (last year’s winner) • CWL Final: Jane the Vixen Red (BRL, winner of 2017 Unknown Wrestler League) • IWL Final: Nasty Norman Krasner • NWL Final: Ricky Kyle In one semi-final, we will see bitter rivals Kinderwacht and Red face off while in the other the red-hot Ricky Kyle will face the, well, Nasty Normal Krasner. One of these four will win The self-professed “Greatest Tag team wrestler the 4th Johnny B Cup and the results will determine the breakdown of the prizes. ? in the world” debuted in the NWL in 2012 and taunt-filled promos earned him many enemies.

The winner will advance to face Sledge and Hammer who won with him, but turned ugly when he kept blaming the CWL bracket.

  • Angry Aryans Bound for Glory in a Racial Holy War: Productions of White Identity in Contemporary Hatecore Lyrics
    Angry Aryans Bound for Glory in a Racial Holy War: Productions of White Identity in Contemporary Hatecore Lyrics Thesis Presented in Partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By Roberto Fernandez Morales, B.A. Graduate Program in Sociology The Ohio State University 2017 Thesis Committee: Vincent Roscigno, Advisor Hollie Nyseth Brehm Eric Schoon Copyright by Roberto Fernandez Morales 2017 Abstract The Southern Poverty Law Center reports that, over the last 20 years, there has been a steady rise in hate groups. These groups range from alternative right, Neo Confederates, White Supremacist to Odinist prison gangs and anti-Muslim groups. These White Power groups have a particular race-based ideology that can be understood relative to their music—a tool that provides central recruitment and cohesive mechanisms. White supremacist rock, called Hatecore, presents the contemporary version of the legacy of racist music such as Oi! and Rock Against Communism. Through the years, this genre produces an idealized model of white supremacist, while also speaking out against the perceived threats, goals, and attitudes within white supremacist spaces. In this thesis, I use content analysis techniques to attempt to answer two main questions. The first is: What is the ideal type of white supremacist that is explicitly produced in Hatecore music? Secondly, what are the concerns of these bands as they try to frame these within white supremacist spaces? Results show that white supremacist men are lauded as violent and racist, while women must be servile to them. Finally, white supremacist concerns are similar to previous research, but highlight growing hatred toward Islam and Asians.

  • 40-Day Lenten Devotional on the Lord's Prayer 2021
    40-DAY LENTEN DEVOTIONAL ON THE LORD’S PRAYER 2021 Dear friend, This 40-Day Lenten devotional is a gift for you from First Presbyterian Church. Our elders at First Pres are calling all of us to our core practices of praying together and reading and practic- ing Scripture during this time of Lent—Ash Wednesday to Easter. This devotional on the Lord’s Prayer is a companion piece to our current sermon series, ”Teach us to Pray.” It is called Freedom in the Father, and it takes the Lord’s Prayer nearly word by word exploring its deep meaning and application for our life. There is a tremendous freedom in turning over the daily components of our life to a loving and gracious Father and increasing our dependence upon Him. The Lord’s Prayer allows us to do just that. Unlike most of our devotionals, I am the author so the person speaking is me and the examples are from my life. This devotional is designed to be used daily individually or as part of your family devotional. It is also designed to be used by a micro-group. We have written some reflection questions to be done once a week exploring how the Spirit and the Word have spoken to you during the last week. I hope you will make this devotional a part of your daily routine alongside your Church family. We are seeking unity in the Holy Spirit and the bond of peace (Ephesians 4:3) so that we may share “New Life through Jesus for Edmond and the world!” In Him, Rev.

  • What Do You Know About Wrestling?
    What Do You Know About Wrestling? Ask anyone what wrestling is and they will be able to answer. This sport is a worldwide phenomenon with millions of fans. However, not so many people know how wrestling was born and where it comes from. Professional wrestling, pro wrestling, or simply wrestling is actually a form of performance art and entertainment. It combines theatrical performance with athletics. Wrestling usually takes the form of events that are organized by touring companies, mimicking a title-match combat sport. Wrestling is a billion-dollar entertainment industry. In the 1980s, local forms of wrestling declined very much in Europe, while in North America they gained momentum. Later on, the advent of television offered pro wrestling a new opening. Where does it come from? This unique form of sport which is displayed is based on, as well as evolved from, classical and catch wrestling, alongside modern additions such as strength-based holds and throws, acrobatic maneuvers, and striking attacks. Most of these additions originate in various international martial arts. To make things even more spectacular, improvised weaponry may sometimes be included in a fight. Wrestling originates in a popular form of entertainment from the 19th-century Europe. Later, it grew into sideshow exhibitions in North American traveling as well as vaudeville halls. It was not long before professional wrestling grew into a standalone style of entertainment with numerous variations in cultures around the world. Wrestling and boxing soon became instrumental in making pay-per-view a great method of content delivery. Show wrestling has become very popular, especially in Central and North America, Europe, particularly the UK, and Japan.
