They’re doing a combo deal next year so I could get tickets for both shows in one shot. Also, Orlando has gone WAY better than Dallas so far as I paid 150 for a nosebleed seat at Wrestlemania XXXII and now I’ve got upper deck for XXXIII, Raw and Smackdown for 193. Indy shows/Axxess tickets upcoming.
As usual, thank you all for letting me be able to do this. You’re basically paying for this stuff (well, along with the wife needing to find something for Christmas/my birthday) and it’s the most fun I can have as a wrestling fan.

New E-Book: KB’s Monday Nitro and Thunder Reviews Volume V with Special Price
A comprehensive look back at every episode of WCW Monday Nitro and Thunder from January – June 1999. WCW is in trouble and there’s not much of a better way to put it. They’re being defeated by Monday Night Raw in the Monday Night Wars, but as any wrestling historian can tell you, that doesn’t mean there’s no hope. Monday Night Raw was crushed for the better part of two years so maybe WCW can come back as well. In this book, every episode of both shows in the first half of 1999 is reviewed in full, complete with analysis, ratings and complete content included.
Normally this will be selling for $3.99 but for the next ten days (as in thru Sunday November 27) it’s going to be at a sale price of $2.99. Pick it up cheap while you can!
In case you don’t have a Kindle, there are plenty of FREE apps you can get from Amazon for pretty much any electronic device, all of which are available at this link.
Or if you’re in another country with its own Amazon page, just search “KB Nitro V” and it should be the first thing to come up.
Also you can still get any of my previous books on the WWE Championship, the Intercontinental Championship, Monday Night Raw from 1997, 1998, 2001 and the first half of 2014, Monday Nitro from 1995-1998, In Your House, Summerslam, Starrcade, ECW Pay Per Views, Royal Rumble, Saturday Night’s Main Event, the WWF and WCW pay per views from 1998, Wrestlemania, WWE Grab Bagand Clash of the Champions at my author’s page here.
I hope you like it and shoot me any questions you might have.

I’m Going Back to Wrestlemania
So here’s a good one.
The wife is going to England to visit family the week of Wrestlemania. We were looking around to see if there were any nearby airports with cheaper tickets (a really good travel tip) and found that in Knoxville (two and a half hours away), the price was cut in half. As a joke, I said maybe we should try Orlando so I can drop her off at the airport and then go on to Wrestlemania that weekend.
As luck would have it, Orlando actually WAS cheaper and, as a result, I’m doing Wrestlemania and all associated shows, (including an indy show or two as I’ll be there by myself and can take a bit more wrestling than the wife), such as Wrestlemania (ticket already bought), Axxess (at least one session depending on who the VIP wrestlers are), Raw/Smackdown (in the same building for the first time that I can remember) and of course Takeover.
So yeah. I’m pretty happy and that’s due to all of you people. I flat out could not do this without you all reading my stuff and buying my e-books (new one on Friday). It’s the only thing I’ve ever wanted to do and somehow I get to do it every single day. Thank you all so much and you have no idea how much I appreciate you all reading my stuff day after day. It means the world to me and I’m not exaggerating a single bit.
All of them are under $4 and can be read on any e-reader.

It’s that time again. Starting on the 22nd, I’ll be counting the shows up again. As always I’ll be doing last year’s show and one other. In the comments, let me know which you’d like to see me do again. 2003 and 2005 were done last year and are therefore out of the running.

Wrestlingrumors.net
I’ve mentioned this site before but things are starting to be revamped over there and it’s getting a lot better. We’ve got a bunch of new people covering the news (including myself for the first time ever on any site) and a lot of new content, including video news updates and a lot more opinion pieces. Check it out at the regular site and on Facebook (https://www.facebook.com/wrestlingrumors) as they’re getting a lot better and it’s worth spending your time on.
A Few Updates
I’ve gotten rid of the sub pages for On This Day, Wrestler of the Day and I Want To Talk A Little Bit About. I haven’t done any of those in years and there’s no real need to keep the pages there taking up space. You can still find any of them by searching for the titles.
