Well, watching the new Edge documentary atm, good stuff so far, and regarding the whole thing between him, Lita, and Matt Hardy and how the majority of everyone (wrestlers and fans) were somewhat sheepishly bitter at Edge and Lita, and gave Matt Hardy some sort of heroic, quite possibility, sympathy to him, we get the whole weird hindsight kind of thing, seven years later.

I mean did anyone, in 2005, think that in 2012 that Edge would retire as somewhat of a heroic wrestler, Lita doing local radio/being in a punk rock band (I think) and making the one-time appearance, and that Matt Hardy just went insane with DUIs and rehabs and going crazy on youtube?

Pounding my way through Y2J's first book now (every time I poop), and it is fantastic so far. I'm maybe a quarter of the way through, but this book has increased my fibre intake by a lot because I just can't wait to get back to the ****ter.

Well, currently reading Foley's 2nd book, Foley is Good, its pretty good stuff so far, and he has made a point that is pretty interesting that has to do with professional wrestling causing deaths outside of the industry and people blaming and, sometimes, suing Vince for it.

Foley retaliated with listing on how all sorts of pop culture leads to some kind of death at some point (all kinds of sports, music, movies, plays.) I found that part really really entertaining and true about it, yet people just loves to pigeon-hole wrestling and the WWE.

Hope this is the right place to ask something like this, but I just found a couple of old boxes full of wrestling mags from the 80's-early 90's. Wondering if there's any kind of market at all for these or if there's a good place to look to find out if they're worth anything at all?

Looks like WWE is going to release a DVD on Undertaker's streak. I'm sure the first disk would probably be the worst disk ever, and that the last disk would be the best one ever. Anyway, here's a promo poster.

As it stands, of course, if some people liked the earlier Undertaker squash matches of the 90s, then this is for you, most people may pass on the dvd for that though. The last two disks is going to be, for sure, worth it.

I find it hilarious that Hulk Hogan is only the 23rd best superstar of all time but the leg drop is the 7th best finisher. I guess he wouldn't have even made the top 50 if he didn't have such a devastating finisher!

Some solid trolling here from Vince.

Apparently RVD's frog splash is 19 spots worse than Eddie Guerrero's.

Somehow the fact that Eddie had a better career equates to his frog splash being better.

I might be in the minority with this, but I would love for Jim Cornette to write a book. His commentaries and interviews available on youtube are phenomenal. There used to be a 4 hour shoot interview (he did with RF Video in 2000) on youtube, but they recently took it down. I can't find it anywhere now. The first time I listened to it, I was thinking I might listen to some of it, but surely not 4 hours worth. Once it was a few minutes in, I wouldn't have missed a second.

This should be the best book of his series since so many interesting things has happened in and out of the ring during the span of late 2007-late 2010.

From him breaking his leg in the scaffold match to going over every booking note he had when booking wwe in 96/97 to having hours of conversation with bobby heenan. it's great stuff.

i'd recommend listening to his booking shoot first.

Watching "Tombstone: History Of The Undertaker" on Netflix ATM, Just finished the In Your House 1997 event, man what a ****ing real life save by Taker in that one.

You can clearly see the finish was supposed to be Foley attempts to burn Taker with Flash paper, Taker blocks with Bearer, Bearr gets burned" but the lighter wouldn't light.

You see Taker kicking the crap out of Bearer while Foley staggers around with this lighter close to his chest trying to light it. Finally Taker walks over, kicks Foley, steals the lighter during the kick, now he's trying to get it to light while kicking Bearer, who's in the corner.

Then he lights it, Bearer gets this "Oh ****" look, sells really well, Taker teases him with the lighter, popping the crowd, then does the "burn".

That really would've blown a pretty decent angle if the burn was never pulled off.
