Thanks Matt. Could you elaborate on that a bit though. I can't remember who it was but there was a discussion about the type of fans that gather here very recently. I'm not clear about how Power Slam deviates from that.

Hi everyone. I wanted to get people's thoughts on Power Slam magazine. If you've no idea what I'm talking about, perhaps a few words by way of intro would help. Power Slam is a UK based magazine, covering mainly US and Japan wrestling. It's been around since the summer of 1994. Every December they run a PS 50 - Top wrestlers for the previous 12 months. I've been lurking on this board for over a year, and can't remember seeing any mention of the magazine. I think it got a quick mention on Chad and Parv's show about the UK scene. I would have thought it quite a relevant/prestigious mag, but perhaps I'm completely wrong? Thoughts anyone?

Hello, I'm Mick Murphy from Newry, Northern Ireland. I'm 36, a fan since 1990-91. Started with WWF, then through Power Slam magazine (I'd love to get talking more about that sometime..) I ventured into tape trading in the mid-90s and covered a lot of the pimped stuff around then. Probably leaned more on WWF during attitude era but have been filling the blanks gradually since then. Never stopped watching entirely, but new to boards etc. I've been lurking on the site since the start of last year.
