No Grudge Matches Here

If you’ve come to The Rap Sheet looking for info about Raw, SmackDown!, or the lowdown on folks who call themselves Big Daddy Destruction, Black Dragon, or “Dirty” Dick Brody, you’re seriously off track. January Magazine contributor Ali Karim alerts me to the fact that somebody in St. Louis, Missouri, known as The Crimefighter, a self-described “fan of pro-wrestling, ever since about Wrestlemania One,” has a completely unrelated blog up, also known as The Rap Sheet. Sheesh! I already knew there was a hip-hop Web site called Rap Sheet.com, a sports-related blog from the Boston Herald entitled The Rap Sheet, and a newsletter called the Rap Sheet, produced by the Monroe County (Florida) Sheriff’s Office. But this additional Internet use of the Rap Sheet name came as a surprise.

Fortunately, it’s hard to imagine that the Rap Sheet you’re looking at right now might ever be confused with a blog that talks about changes at the New Midwest Wrestling organization and bashes casually on gays and lesbians.
