Donga is stuck in an act. It's plainly obvious he's living out a WWE fantasy script in real life. He talks big whenever he's in front of a mic, issuing threats, challenges, and making overly dramatic claims, even the way he talked to Failure.
It's not surprising he's put on this WWE tough man act. Look at what a lame ass life he was living prior/during his time at the Kumite. Lives in some trailer trash tier house with his hick as hell mother and nonce father, go to the car wash that his family works (not owns, works) at. Can't wrestle because he's crippled as shit, wheelchair or otherwise. It's a sad existence. No wonder the second he got the chance to play tough guy online, he did.
Going back and listening to the Tim Loy call from Zoom's stream, apparently there isn't a notary number on the notary stamp. Not a lawyer so I'm wary of taking Zoom's word on this, but he said that all notary stamps require a notary number.
A lot of places are going away from embossed seals because they copy like shit and you can just order one off the internet so its not extra secure like they used to be.
That being said, @Goku 1000000 O Every state I know requires the seal to have the commission number of the notary on it.
If anyone has the document I can likely find out if that person is a real notary or not. Should be public record.
I wonder if he will be like wings and do streams that he is forced to do out of necessity while people endlessly troll him. Its gonna be a depressing downward spiral
I've had several wrestling shows that had to be notarized for waivers/insurance reasons (typically fairgrounds or National Guard Armories) prior to us being admitted to the backstage area.
Lying on the form speaks worse for the notary public because it is their sole job to verify the identity of the person signing (typically through a driver's license). Them not verifying Dongas identity could cost them up to $1500 in fines and them losing their notary status. Basically, the notary has more to lose from this than Donga.
Not meant as a challenge to your pedigree at all, I just have questions for someone related to the industry in question since the opportunity is available
My take is that a combatant presenting themselves as sincere but with no intent to ever show up is unusual in the business. If a last minute pull out in that case causes a spate of refunds, would the company not want to pursue it? Or is it just a "show didn't go as planned, let's focus on the next one" situation?

That's why there's always a disclaimer (even for pro wrestling) "Card subject to change". Valor Fights could be dicks about the whole thing and refuse refunds, but most places would never actually pull carny shit like that.
If Valor Fights had a legal contract between Warski and Donga over the fight, then Valor could sue for breach of contract, but otherwise, the worst that will happen is he loses all credibility on youtube.

There are strong hints that they do have such contracts, with strong hints at a particularly draconian clause covering simple withdrawal. Or at least what Andy considers draconian in his previous contract experience
Aside: any speculation on the easy way out of the contract Warski keeps mentioning? Mine is that it involves a public apology from Donga
Since failure abandoned him and probably talked to warski, I have a feeling that it involves giving failure the money that he apparently never received for their show. I don't see any other "easy way out"
I'm not so sure that the notary seal is such a big deal. From the sounds of it he filled in the paperwork but didn't submit it. If his family does own a car lot then he undoubtedly has access to a title notary, who is just someone that is issued with an individualized notary seal and is authorized to witness and verify document signatures.
Edit: Explain why you disagree then. I've had to get documents notarized and true copies certified for background security checks numerous times throughout my employment. It's really not a big deal and lots of people are authorized to perform the task. I usually have my local pharmacist do it.
Where's the evidence that it's fake? As has been mentioned already, Donga's family run a car lot. They undoubtedly have a title notary on the premises. Even if they don't it's not like it's hard to find someone that's authorized to witness you signing a document.

I get the impression people are mixing up a notary stamp and a court filing number/true copy or whatever. As stated before he probably has easy access to a notary on the car lot he is related to.
I'm not thinking there would be anything illegal about having a notary stamp a name change application he signed, even if he doesn't intend to turn it in. Even if he foraged a notary stamp, I seriously doubt he would be prosecuted as he never actually used the document. That's my take at least. I unfortunately think it will be anticlimactic in terms of legal action.
The issue with the notary stamp is that there was no number on it. If there is no number, which ID's the notary public that the stamp/seal belongs to, then it's not legit.
Edit - No number present is per Tim Loy, the promoter that got the document from Donga. He said this on a phone call with Zoom that Zoom was streaming live. This isn't Zoom spin.
Krout is a great cartoon villain. He's always got elaborate schemes against people and every leak is like a cut scene where he describes his entire plan to whatever bad guy of the week. Great fun!
I do find it incredibly ironic for all Donga's talk about "internet people" that he is the one to chicken out when he's expected to make good on his tough guy persona. On the internet Donga fabricated this avatar of a tough guy who is willing to fight anyone IRL. That's about as 'internet person' you can get. You literally create a person that only exists on the internet and not in the real world.
I did listen a bit to the Kumite at the height of the Internet Bloodsports stuff, but I was fooled enough by Donga's calm voice to realize what a retard he was. I thought he was just a boring normal dude, but it turns out he's a boring retard.
