The Wrestlemania preview.

http://mightynorcal.podbean.com/e/wwp-42-kb-and-myself-head-home-to-wrestlemania/

Think of a great wrestler over the last forty years and odds are they’ve been the Intercontinental Champion. Since 1979, the Title has brought us a long list of great matches, stories and champions, many of whom have risen to the top of the wrestling world on the strength of their time as Intercontinental Champion. It’s been called the workrate title and is often associated with the best wrestling that you can find anywhere in the world. Whether it’s a mat classic or a bloody fight, more great matches have been fought over the Intercontinental Title than almost any championship in the history of wrestling. Any way you look at it, there’s a reason why this title is thought of so highly among wrestling fans.

In this new book, I’ll be taking a look over 400 Intercontinental Title matches from pay per views, television and house shows with every title change (at least all of them filmed) included, along with a long list of successful title defenses. I’ll be including play by play and analysis of each match and taking a look at how much the title has changed as well as stayed the same over the years.

The books is my longest ever at over 500 pages on a Kindle and only costs $3.99, or the equivalent in other currencies. If you don’t have a Kindle or e-book reader, there are several FREE apps you can use to read it on pretty much any electronic device. You can find those from Amazon here.

You can pick up the book from Amazon here.

From the UK Amazon here.

From the Canadian Amazon here.

Or if you’re in another country with its own Amazon page, just search “KB Intercontinental Title” and my book will be the first thing that pop up.

Also you can still get any of my previous books on the WWE Championship, Monday Night Raw from 1997, 1998 and 2001, 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 and 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 back on Killjoy’s show as we discuss the week in wrestling and I ramble on about a lot of stuff, including the upcoming History of the Intercontinental Title book.

The bitterness returns as we look at the drek that was this week’s Raw.

Aside from XXXI of course.  The count-up starts March 3.

The Three Wise Men gather to discuss the Undertaker’s potential opponents for Wrestlemania and to preview Fastlane.

As hosted by Killjoy, I go on and on for about two hours and forty minutes on whatever topics come to mind.

Shocky and NorCal are mad about stuff.

We continue through the history of one of the biggest wrestling companies of all time with the second half of Monday Nitro and Thunder from 1998. It’s a bad time for WCW as the Monday Night Wars are starting to swing in the other direction. Monday Night Raw started winning again in April 1998 and WCW has been scrambling for a way to get back on top. However, their strategy seems to be a combination of quick fixes and going back to ideas that worked before. These methods don’t have the most successful track records in wrestling history but maybe they’ll work here.

In this book, I’ll be looking at every Monday Nitro and Thunder from July 1998 through December 1998, breaking down each show match by match and segment by segment. This is a very important time in WCW’s history and it should be interesting looking back and seeing what was working, what wasn’t working, but most importantly why it wasn’t working. As usual I’ll be providing play by play, context and analysis of every show.
