  1. Damien Sandow: It's Been Worth It

    Damien Sandow: It's Been Worth It Many aspiring wrestlers dream of main eventing WrestleMania. Having their face in the advertisements for all the big shows, being everyone’s favorite (or most hated) wrestler. And to a lot of fans, your status on the card of a main stream organization defines...

  2. Ask This Guy a Question

    Who do you feel played the bigger role in bringing sexuality into the mainstream as a generally accepted part of the American mainstream culture- Marylyn Monroe, or Hugh Hefner?

  3. Ripped To Shreds: Hall Of Fame

    Ripped To Shreds: Hall Of Fame This year Ric Flair, a man who is universally considered to be one of the biggest and most recognizable names in wrestling history, was inducted into the WWE Hall Of Fame. The Nature Boy is got what many feel is a very worthy spot. Every year around March...

  4. Ripped To Shreds: The Twilight Zone

    Ripped To Shreds: The Twilight Zone NOTE: Just to clarify, this is about wrestling, even though the first part of this column does not make any direct references to wrestling. He entered through the gates, and realized there was something different about where he now was. It was not the...

  5. Ripped To Shreds: Stairway To Hell

    Kingovkings- I agree that things do lose their value over time, but also, four years after the debut of the hell in a cell match, it didn't seem as great, where as 4 years after the ladder match debuted, it still seemed like an awesome concept. I agree that the ladder match had to be whored out...

  6. Ripped To Shreds: Stairway To Hell

    enigma- thanks for the feedback. viva- That is true, but I feel it rings true that everyone saw The Ladder match as being a phenomenal concept for a match, and I don't think there's any denying it is not seen in nearly the same light anymore. Even if you were to take two of the best around...

  7. Owen Hart = secret WWE CHAMP NO JOKE!

    I watched the video and the match most likely got restarted. Or less they wouldn't have cut off the video like that. I was at a house show in early 1999 where Owen cheated to win the IC Title, and then a referee came down and restarted the match, with Owen losing.

  8. Ripped To Shreds: Stairway To Hell

    Ripped To Shreds: Stairway To Hell If a person were to take a look back at the world of WWE from about ten years ago, it is clear that it was a much different wrestling world back then, to say the least. The Undertaker was just coming off the heels of a victory in what was then the much...

  9. Owen Hart = secret WWE CHAMP NO JOKE!

    I used to check out house show reports a lot, and I never heard of title changes happening that are not well known. I think if stuff like that happened it would be discussed more on the internet. Does anyone have any reports of houseshow title changes that were not recognized on television...

  11. Wrestlemania Rewind Night

    Ric Flair was advertised in the commercial to be there, not just in a special appearance. He has only wrestled two singles matches at Mania, and they were against Savage and Undertaker. Savage won't be there, and most likely will never make an appearance on WWE television again. However, Batista...

  12. Wrestling 'virgins'....

    I would say Kurt Angle vs. Undertaker from No Way Out 2006. It was a very exciting wrestling match, had someone with an over the top gimmick, as well as a controversial ending. That ppv would be good too, as it has Randy Orton vs. Rey Mysterio. Two men fighting with an over the top...

  13. Marks And Smarks

    I really can't stand everyone who has the attitude that because they consider themselves "smarks" and they think they know what "good" wrestling is supposed to be, they can look down on the the more main stream fans, who they call marks. Because they have different tastes in wrestling, they...

  14. Paying Hardtime On The 16th Stop To Rome: The Racism Revelation In Wrestling

    Paying Hardtime On The 16th Stop To Rome; The Racism Revelation In Wrestling (Note: This was a column that was written as a collective effort by myself and two more respected columnists of the IWC. These columnists write under the screen names of of Romans 3:23 and and The Letter P. This...

  15. Revisionist History In Professional Wrestling.

    As for the talk about WCW revealing Mankind's title win, when something is open news, it's open to be used by anyone, including the competition. But the point is that WWE never even acknowledged that they revealed it themselves before WCW did. WWe should at least say that they did that.
