WWE,TNA and Wrestling - It was better when I knew Less

WWE,TNA and Wrestling - It was better when I knew Less  Myself and my brother were talking recently and My brother said that he felt like he enjoyed wrestling more when we knew less about it. I got me thinking about wrestling in the modern era and how much wrestling has changed since I first started watching as a 5 year old child.   It was 1991 I was 5 years old as I said and there is no Internet. We have no SKY TV (pay TV) and we don't even have a video recorder at home at the time. I first managed to see what Wrestling was  by seeing a WWF Wrestling Video at my friends house which introduced me to the awesomeness that is professional wrestling. From that day forward I was hooked on it and have been watching it ever since.   At That Point we could only see wrestling when my friends (or their parents) would buy a new wrestling video. So we weren't exposed to Wrestling much at all and certainly did not know any of the inner workings or what went on backstage. Th

Mick Foley Comedy Show Review Bath 2013

Mick Foley Comedy Show Review Bath 2013     Me and Mick Foley in Bath I brought my ticket for Mick Foley Comedy Show in Bath Months ago. I made sure I got a meet and greet ticket as I had gone to see Mick in Cardiff in 2012 and wanted to make sure I could meet him again. I arrived at the Komedia in Bath and the fans were queued up ready to get into the show. It was a very long line as I found out on the day that she show was sold out. That's a great achievement considering this was the first time for Mick in Bath shows that the advertising and promotion for his shows is spot on and he manages to reach the fans. I get into the building and I am on the bottom floor as I have a meet and great and priority seating ticket. Luckily a friends of mine @kitchkov saved me a seat where he was sitting so was able to sit 4 rows back and enjoy the show. I get some drinks and we are awaiting the start of the show. First of all the comedian supporting Mick on his tour comes out

My Memories Scott Hall WWF years 1992-1996

My Memories Scott Hall WWF years 1992-1996     In 1992 I was 6 years old. I didn't have much access to SKY television here in |England UK and I would go over my friend's houses to watch wrestling and see it on Sky as we didn't have Sky at my home at the time and without Seeing Sky you would not see wrestling as WCW used to be on ITV but had stopped at this point.   I don't ever remember seeing The Diamond Studd or Diamond Dallas page before I saw the Razor Ramon Character so being from England I always thought he was Razor Ramon from the off. It wasn't until I got older and was reading and old school WCW album (before the Internet!!!) that I realised he was the Diamond Stud!!   Below Is a video collection of Razor |Ramon 1st Vignette's for WWF       I didn't see Razor Ramon on his debut however I remember seeing Razor Ramon with Ric Flair and doing an interview with Ric Flair for Survivor Series 1992 here is one of the promos fro

Impact Wrestling - Creative, Creating an Impact

Impact Wrestling - Creative, Creating an Impact May 2013 Welcome to my new blog looking at Impact Wrestling and the positives that TNA  and Impact Creative Team have made to Wrestling so far this year please read on and as always everything you read is my opinion and my opinion as a wrestling fan I'm not a wrestling "expert" and don't proclaim to be one so with that said enjoy!!   TNA Impact Wrestling owned by Dixie Carter made some changes in the early part of 2013. Impact Wrestling decided to do what in my opinion needed to be done for a long time they took the first step to change the Wrestling business and change the Model that the Wrestling business had been so successful on in the past.   Dixie Carter stated “The Pay-Per-View industry has changed so much in the last decade,” says TNA President Dixie Carter. “The traditional pay-per-view wrestling model needed to evolve and we believe this strategy will positively impact not only the Pay-Per-Vie
