  1. Would anyone be interested in a reading group?

    Regal's book is brilliant, and unfortunately out of print. If you can get it second hand I thoroughly recommend it. My Gary Hart books has arrived actually, I'm on holidays next week so I have to read it then. I also need to find my Have a Nice Day. When everyone is organised let me know, Troy...
  2. Would anyone be interested in a reading group?

    That is a terrible book, along with Hogan's first bio. I haven't read the second one.
  3. Orton/Kelly Kelly

    I read an interview she gave after Test died, she said something along the lines of she was going to dedicate the rest of her career to him, and she was going to work towards winning the women's belt. I always respected her a lot more after that interview. I suppose those who pay attention to...
  4. What Have You Been Reading Lately

    I just finished Tymon's Flight by Mary Victoria. I read a lot of fantasy books and this one was very, very good. The author is quite interesting, she worked for WETA, Peter Jacksons company and worked in the film industry for ten years before she retired to start writing. Really great books...
  5. Would anyone be interested in a reading group?

    Have a Nice Day is a great book to start with if you've never read a wrestling bio, it's fantastic, and it really defined the whole genre. That's probably fairly easy to get if you don't have a copy either.
  6. Orton/Kelly Kelly

    Not that the women's title really means much these days, but it's a shame he decided to run his stupid mouth now she's just been made champ. In interviews she's always seemed serious about her career, the poor girl finally gets a title after five years and the idiot starts talking about who...
  7. Would anyone be interested in a reading group?

    Well we could always start off with a book everyone has, and everyone should agree on the book of course. I've done this before and we used to break it up over a month or longer so it didn't take up too much time during everyone's week. I was thinking of doing some ongoing live reviews of books...
  8. Would anyone be interested in a reading group?

    I know it's a bit nerdy (but I am quite the nerd) I thought maybe we could pick a (wrestling) book, read a few chapters at a time and do an ongoing live review with discussion. I thought it might be more enjoyable that way getting a few people involved.
  9. Orton/Kelly Kelly

    Boreton. That's perfect :)
  10. Orton/Kelly Kelly

    I see he's up to his old tricks, and everyone's always saying he's grown up over the last few years.
  11. Chavo Guerrero Released

    I don't get it at all. He was used on TV more this year than he has been in ages, he's even had a PPV spot. Maybe it's his decision? Edit: Well he's claiming he asked for his release on Twitter http://twitter.com/#!/mexwarrior
  12. Playboy Gary Hart Biography

    LOL Scott that's normal retail price over here, a lot of books cost $40. I know a lot of people (including myself) who have pretty much badgered him into doing another print run, as it's self published he has to re-coup the costs. I'm sure it's well worth it.
  13. Tenille Tayla signed to WWE Development *DO READ*

    They've signed a few interesting prospects for the women's roster lately. Good luck to her, I hope she makes it to the main roster soon, I'm sure she can work well being trained by Storm.
  14. Desmond Wolfe Released

    Oh c'mon now, who wrestles in TNA? In all seriousness, they had used him briefly on the Explosion show as a Commish, (or so I read I have never followed that show) I don't know why they stopped doing that. I'm sure he would have been a riot. As for his injuries I have never understood why...
  15. Playboy Gary Hart Biography

    The author has done another small print run. You can purchase it here http://playboygaryhart.net/ I've been told by a lot of people this is one of the best wrestling bios ever written. If you're interested in a copy I suggest you order it quickly (I've ordered mine!) When it was out of...
