He HAD hepatitis. The issue in WWE is that Hepatitis is transferable for the life on anyone who was ever infected with it. Orton forgot that he had it when he was very young.

Don't worry. There's no health risk. Unless "Ace" screws over my main man, Magnum Conroy, like he did Roddy Piper (one of my idols) at WM I ! ;D ;D ;D |

Sorry, Tobi, but unless you want to look like Jeff King did after the Lincoln cage match, I'd leave Bob Orton alone. We might have to start calling you Tobi Hopeless.  Starman has spoken. |

Botch as PW Inc. Champ would be interesting. Magnum's had that belt for (it seems like anyway) ever!

I think that Magnum won the belt in December, 2005 by defeating Harker Dirge in Streator, Illinois. That was the night where Steve Cain was almost run out of town on a rail. A couple of fans got everyone going against Steve. It was great fun. Starman has spoken. |

Yeah, Conroy has had the belt for awhile and Matt Maverick (Harker Dirge) held it from July '03 til Oct. '05. We don't "hot potato" our strap. And after Conroy pounds Botch, '07 will keep looking a lot like '06! ;D |

It also goes a long time between defenses. Magnum is a bit overrated.

It also goes a long time between defenses. Magnum is a bit overrated. A true big man with a heavyweight title - I know that's a very novel concept for downstate since all the groups in this area put their "heavyweight" titles on guys smaller than me (6'1" 200 lbs.)! |

He HAD hepatitis. The issue in WWE is that Hepatitis is transferable for the life on anyone who was ever infected with it. Orton forgot that he had it when he was very young. Hate to tell you there is no such thing as HAD Hepatitis. Once you have it you always have it. Hepatitis is an incurable Viral infection. It is treatable to help your body keep it in control but you can not cure it. I know this because my mother has hepatitis C. She contracted it when she was 16 from a garage tattoo. She went undiagnosed until she was 45 and it didn't wreak any havok on her system. She is now over 50 and it is destroying her liver and she is on constant medication. Havng lost 45lbs in the last 6 months. I know she has ot go in for regular check up and every other year goes in for a liver biapsy (sp?). But the point here Embrace is Hepatitis is not curable, it doesn't run it's course and go away like other viruses. Once you have you ALWAYS have it. You can supress and control it so it doesnt ravage your liver and cause general failuer, OR you may not have an out break and have an inactive virus in your blood (as my mom did for almost 30 years). But once you have it you have. |

But once you have it you have. Very true, Tony. Bob has his well under control. His wife is a nurse and Bob has reassured us he's doing great. To have Bob ref a match shouldn't be considered a health risk. He's not going to get busted open and expose anybody. |
