As is always the case I’ll be doing last year’s show but you can pick the show I redo this year. 1998 was done last year so that’s out of the running as well. This will be a fresh redo and not just a reposting of one I did years ago. Vote in the comments.
For some reason I’m not getting emails when someone posts a comment so I’ve been having to check each one on my own. Please bear with me if I can’t get to them as fast as I normally do.

THe show is back with an Extreme Rules recap and a barrage of fresh TNA jokes.
Apparently comments weren’t working on there for some reason. It should be fine now.
I think it’s safe to say that you’ve heard a thing or two about NXT. Over the last few years the promotion, originally designed as little more than a dumping ground for the young talent brought into the company, has become the hottest promotion in the world. The weekly TV show has become a highlight and must see for most wrestling fans as new talent from all over the world shows up, almost making it an independent all-star promotion under the WWE banner. This isn’t even starting to look at the live specials on the WWE Network.
In this book, I’ll be taking a look at over one hundred and thirty NXT shows, including every live special they’ve aired to date. This ranges from the first live special in February 2014 with Arrival and goes all the way through Takeover: Dallas with every episode of the TV show included in between. I’ll be including play by play and analysis as we take a look at what helped make NXT the hottest thing in the world of professional wrestling. Also, all of the live specials have been redone with new reviews.
Or if you’re in another country with its own Amazon page, just search “NXT Full Sail II” 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 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 appeared on this show with Killjoy last Saturday night and completely forgot to mention it. It’s the two of us talking about Wrestlemania weekend and my experiences there. There are some tech issues at the start but give it some time.

Made the drive from Dallas back to Lexington today so things should be back to the normal schedule starting Thursday. I’ve already got the Wrestlemania pre-show done so I’ll start on the beast of a show tomorrow.

In case you haven’t heard, the wife and I are heading down to Dallas for the weekend for Wrestlemania and associated acts.
We’ll be taking in Takeover: Dallas, Axxess on Saturday, Axxess again on Sunday morning where we get to meet Shawn Michaels himself, then Wrestlemania and of course Raw the next night. Just like two years ago, things are going to be a bit slow around the weekend as I can only get in so much reviewing while I’m in the hotel. This is also our honeymoon so she’s actually expecting me to spend time with her instead of something important.
Therefore, the reviews are all going to be a bit behind but I’ll be making posts for discussion before we leave and I’ll put up a quick live recap/thoughts on each show after we get back to the hotel each night. Once I get back home I’ll be looking at the shows in full for the regular reviews.

The Wrestlemania preview.

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.
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.
