Welcome to a special Thursday Night edition of Tuesday Night….wrestling. SYFY decided that they needed Tuesday to unveil a new sci-fi series, so ECW got shifted to Thursday. ECW, this week, was a mix of decent action and another long episode of Abraham Washington’s Amateur Night at the Comedy Club.

ECW came live, on tape, from Bakersfield, CA.

July RAW Report Card

The Katz Files – Arnie Katz
The July RAW Roster Report Card!

The Kingfish Arnie Katz presents his April promotion report card for the good folks at WWE’s RAW.

About the Report Cards
Each month, I issue a report card for RAW. I examine and grade the promotion in all the vital areas. I discuss strengths and weaknesses and chart the ups and downs. The grades in parentheses are for the previous report card.

Donald Trump is gone, The Bash is history and there’s been a big talent reassignment. That’s a lot of change in a short period of time and RAW has still not yet fully become what it will be in the wake of all this.

Still, it’s time to fill out the RAW Report Card and give the good news (and the bad) to the fine folks at RAW.

37 Years of wrestling memories

HeadLocker — Jay Shannon
My Best Memories of Wrestling
Our resident philosopher celebrates his birthday by waxing nostalgic about some of his favorite wrestling memories

Around this time of the year, I tend to look back at life and smile. 37 years ago, my late grandfather took me to the old Sportatorium for my first live wrestling card. That created a life-long love of the sport. As I will celebrate my 44th birthday on Tuesday (July 7th), , I wanted to take a few minutes to look back at some of my favorite people places and events in wrestling.

The Phantom of the Ring – Remembering Waldo

The Phantom of the Ring

Remembering Waldo Von Erich 

 

He was the consummate Naughty Nazi, from his World War II German helmet to his jackboots to the ubiquitous riding crop he carried, which could be brought into use if the situation warranted. And unlike his many of his “countrymen,” he never changed, unrepentant to the end.
