  1. Listening to the show has cemented my view that I'd vote Breaks, Pallo and Daddy in from the European section.
  2. Welcome to episode 6 after a long hiatus of Wrestling Eye Podcast! I am kindly joined today by former Powerslam Magazine writers Rob Butcher, John Lister and Greg Lambert Download: http://traffic.libsyn.com/wrestlingeye/Episode_6.mp3 Direct link: http://wrestlingeye.libsyn.com/ We are talking about the hugely influential Powerslam Magazine that was published in the UK and beyond each month from 1994 until 2004. We talk about its history, influence, the PS50 and end of year awards, each writers memories of writing for the magazine at different points in its history, what Fin Martin was like to work for and so much more! This is a great show and a real insight in to the workings of Powerslam magazine over the years.

  3. No Big Daddy love again Bix?
  4. They've surpassed the $4500 target now, which is great news.
  5. Hold on, aren't you from the UK? Yup, and used a VPN to access it.
  6. I never liked this spot. It made Flair look weak in my eyes, especially when he was the world champion.
  7. I let my subscription expire. Like someone said earlier, it still feels like a beta test. It had all the potential in the world, I realised this more and more over the last six months, even more so after listening to the WIll, Charles, Mookie podcast on fixing the network.
  8. I am pretty sure she was a member of f4wonline.com before the merger too. I know Kieron Dyer is a big fan of WWE too.
  9. I am a big user of Google Calendar to organise my life and such and I think it's a great. One of the features I like is subscribing to other calendars such as my football teams fixtures, and UFC events (https://www.google.com/calendar/[email protected]) - with so many UFC shows currently it serves as a good reminder who's on what shows. This calendar is updated often and has the fight cards listed which can come in handy. I was thinking, would anyone be interested in a Pro Wrestling calender? I am not sure if I can dedicate the time to update it but if someone else reads this and thinks it's a good idea they may like to do this project. Things I'd like to see in the Calendar: WWE/TNA/ROH TV shows and PPV/Network events with cards if possible. Any and all Wrestling iPPV's with cards if possible. Scheduled podcasts with upcoming guests if possible such as Austin's etc. House show schedule would be interesting too maybe? Release date of DVD's, Books, Magazines Anyone have any other ideas? I think it would be great if a few google calendars users collaborated on it as it would be a great reference point.
  10. Enjoyed reading these and totally forgot that Bruce Prichard announced as the Wizard.
  11. I remember endless Jim Duggan squashes on the syndicated shows shown over here on the German channels. *shudder*
  12. Steve Austin uses wrestling vernacular in every day speech if you listen to his podcast. "Gimmicks in the mail" and what not.
  13. Really enjoyed episode two guys, great concept!
  14. GFW in my eyes will never materialise as promotion anyway.
  15. Jerry Lawler did some weird knights of the round table piece with his coat of arms building up his KOTR '95 match with Bret Hart, there's also a picture of him barefoot stood in slop next to a horse. 14 year old me didn't like it.
  16. An interesting view behind the curtain working for the WWE from a variety of employee's and ex-employees: http://www.glassdoor.co.uk/Reviews/World-Wrestling-Entertainment-Reviews-E5718.htm

    Current WWE

    I cannot believe in hindsight that the Fandango push and win over Jericho just wasn't really capitalised on. Bit of a waste all in all.
  18. Like others have said, I found the Justin Credible Timeline to lack and real insight into the promotion; well no more at least than what's already out there.
  19. 1998 Yearbook would be a fun watch, I'm still working through the 1990 one though!

  20. This sounds fun, I'll try and take a listen to this next week.
  21. I remember getting my internet news in 1995/1996 from Alex Marvez and his "View From Daytona" page or email. Hazy memories at best.
  22. When I first saw this about a year later I thought it was absolutely phenomenal as I had never seen anything like it previously. The post match interview and angle was exquisite too. However, I'd be the first to admit that it hasn't aged that well.
  23. The first one that popped in to my head was Owen Hart vs. 1-2-3 Kid from KOTR 1994.
  24. April 1994 was the arguably best month in ring ever,
  25. Thanks to PWI I thought George South and The Italian Stallion were somewhat legit stars.
