Beast Posted November 29, 2016 Report Posted November 29, 2016 Fantastic stuff here. I recently went on a spending spree picking up a bunch of old Apter mags and I love reading the various wrestlers/angles focused on in each issue. Your column is a great resource. Quote

Laz Posted March 15, 2017 Report Posted March 15, 2017 The Apter mags were integral in my growing love of pro wrestling. Inside, the Wrestler, and PWI were regular purchases from late '97 until I went online two years later. I'm just echoing everybody else here when I say that this is a great idea. It makes me wish there were still full-kayfabe wrestling pubs out there. Quote
