Really you should. I’ve been told they’re quite good. Granted I was talking to myself but it was in fact said. I have quite the selection to pick from and all are available on Amazon Prime:
All of them run over 200 pages and many break 400. That’s not bad for under $4 each. Check them out as I’ve yet to hear someone who doesn’t at least like them a little bit. They’re all e-books and can be read on pretty much any device and you can find free apps to read them on for almost any device here.

New E-Book: KB’s History of Saturday Night’s Main Event
One of the most common complaints wrestling fans have today is how much content there is to watch. WWE alone has at least seven hours of wrestling TV a week. For over twenty years, we’ve gotten used to wrestling airing every Monday night with some of the biggest stars in the sport squaring off. However, things weren’t always the same. Back in the 1980’s, wrestling television was based around the idea of squash matches. Most shows featured a big name against an unknown and matches against other stars were almost unheard of.
Things began to change in 1985. Powered by the strength of Wrestlemania and Hulkamania, the WWF was able to air a series of specials on NBC, featuring matches between big name stars and even title matches, all for free. The shows were major successes and helped push the company into their golden era, sending professional wrestling to heights no one had ever seen possible.
In this book, I’ll be looking at all thirty six episodes of the series, as well as the five Main Event specials, breaking down every match, segment and show as a whole. As usual I’ll be providing play by play, historical context and analysis of every show. The reviews are all new and never before seen.
The books runs over 300 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.
Or if you’re in another country with its own Amazon page, just search “KB’ Saturday” 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 1998 and 2001, Monday Nitro from 1995-97, In Your House, Summerslam, Starrcade, ECW Pay Per Views, Royal Rumble and Clash of the Champions at my author’s page here.
I hope you like it and shoot me any questions you might have.

New E-Book: KB’s History of Monday Nitro Volume II
We’re going back to the 90s again for a look at the second full year of Monday Nitro. The previous year closed out with WCW on a hot streak but things would pick up even more in the coming year. WCW would go on a run that had the WWF and Monday Night Raw not only on the ropes but on the brink of death.
Over the course of the year, Nitro was must see TV with action, drama, violence and the NWO running roughshod all over WCW. The stories were as compelling as ever and made you want to come back the next week to see what was going to happen. In addition to the top story, 1997 also saw the rise of the future with stars such as Rey Mysterio Jr., Chris Jericho, Chris Benoit, Dean Malenko and Goldberg becoming some of the most interesting parts of the show.
In this book, we’ll look at every episode of Monday Nitro from 1997 and see why they were so unstoppable all year. Each show is broken down segment by segment and match by match with historical context, ratings and analysis of what worked or didn’t work about each segment and how the shows added up to being so successful for WCW.
The books runs over 400 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.

New E-Book: KB’s History of In Your House
My newest book is pretty self-explanatory. It’s the complete history of In Your House, a WWF pay per view series that ran from May 1995 to April 1999. The series covers most of the New Generation and the first half of the Attitude Era and everything in between. There are some absolute masterpieces included in this series, ranging from the first Hell in a Cell to Canadian Stampede to Austin vs. Dude Love II to Shawn vs. Mankind and many others.
Also included is a look back at the story that kept the company afloat when WCW’s boot was over the WWF’s throat: the Border War. The majority of the story took place at In Your House, including the final blowoff in Calgary. There’s also a good portion of the most famous feud of all time with the corporate Vince McMahon trying to suppress the rebellion being waged by Stone Cold Steve Austin. The feud defined the Attitude Era and carried the company to heights never believed possible.
In Your House was one of the most important pay per view series of all time and features some of the most important matches in the company’s history. This new book looks at every single show in the series and includes detailed history and analysis of each show, broken down match by match and segment by segment. The book runs about 320 pages on a Kindle or about 170 single spaced pages in Word.
The book is available from Amazon for just and can be picked up in any country that has Amazon.
If you’re in another country and would like to pick it up, just search “KB’s In Your House” and it should be the first thing that pops up.
If you don’t have a Kindle or E-Reader, there are 100% free apps that can be downloaded from Amazon, found here.

New E-Book: KB’s Complete Monday Nitro Reviews Volume I
Yes I’ve done it again, this time with the first in a series Monday Nitro reviews. Volume I covers everything from the first episode through the end of 1996, which includes a lot of awesome moments and matches. These shows feature a long series of Eddie Guerrero vs. Chris Benoit matches, a bunch of world title matches and changes, the New Japan invasion, the debut of Chris Jericho, the Alliance to End Hulkamania, the reformation of the Four Horsemen, and of course the rise of the NWO in their dominance of WCW.
This was one of the most important times in wrestling history as the way wrestling was presented on television was changed forever. The days of an hour of squash matches a week were gone and the flagship show was now on Monday nights. The Monday Night Wars were underway and this show rocked Monday Night Raw to its core. These shows still hold up today and are well worth checking out.
The book is available from Amazon for just $4 and can be found in America here
If you live in another country and have an Amazon specific to said country, just search KB’s Nitro and it should be the only result that pops up.
If you don’t have a Kindle, there are completely free apps you can download to any device imaginable which can be found from Amazon here.

KB’s History Of Starrcade E-Book
It’s that time again as I’ve written a new book with ALL NEW reviews of the flagship show of WCW. There are 18 shows in all in this one, starting back in 1983 and ranging all the way forward through to 2000. This is exactly what it sounds like and is something a lot of old school WCW and NWA fans will be interested in. Also, this time the book is only $4 instead of the usual five.
The book is available worldwide and can be picked up in America here
If you live somewhere else and want to pick it up, just search “KB’s History of Starrcade” on your Amazon site and it should be there.
It’s an e-book format, but if you don’t have a Kindle or any other kind of e-reader, there are free Apps which can let you read it on your computer, phone or whatever else you prefer. You can find those free apps here:
Would anyone be interested in me making full series of my reviews available as e-books? I’d throw them on Amazon or something after fixing them up a bit. I’m talking the entire series (say all the Raws from 1998 for example which would be about 240 pages) for something like four bucks each. Even if you don’t have a Kindle there are apps for them for almost anything mobile.
