When I published my article on Monday, I called “Stone Cold” Steve Austin a marketing genius. After heading on over to WWEshop.com, I can more than confirm this notion. His new shirt is now number the number one seller. Not only is that shirt number one, but another one of his shirts that I used [...]

This totally sucks. PWTorch.com is reporting but if you saw ECW last night you knew he was hurt that Evan Bourne is going to be out at least four months with a severe ankle injury. You could see it last night after flipping out of the ring and overshooting the group on the floor. This [...]

Over at Prowrestling.net there is a link to a Newsday.com article with a statement from Gabe Sapolsky about his removal as booker of ROH. Now don’t get your hopes up. The quote sucks and isn’t really worth mentioning but since it is a slow news day, get it, it warrants a comment. There really isn’t [...]

According to Prowrestling.net via Figure Four Online, Adam Pearce has been brought on as Ring of Honor’s new booker. Word around the campfire is that Pearce will bring a more 1970s style of wrestling to ROH, but continue using the same roster. And who says Jim Cornette’s style is outdated?

Of course the one lasting memory of Jones is his “9-second” (more like 22-second) squash loss to King Kong Bundy at the first WrestleMania. All of the other times he [...]

Steve Austin is a marketing genius. This guy comes back for one lousy appearance as a special guest referee and he has a new t-shirt. The shirt follows his pattern of having a skull on it like this one or this one or even this one. The t-shirt also follows another pattern that I emphasize [...]

I’ve been nice to TNA for their Race for a Cure t-shirt and tried to be optimistic about their live iMPACT! in Las Vegas this week over at the Pro Wrestling Torch. That nice streak is coming to an end after looking around TNAshop.com and seeing the Prince Justice Brotherhood shirt and the child wearing it. [...]

The next target of my mocking in the world of wrestling is Hunter Hearst Helmsley. The King of Kings has quite a little collection with his HalloWWEen package. I already went thru my thoughts on the WWE Title Belt so I’ll leave it alone. The first item in the package is the Triple H Iron [...]
