  1. I see that the next issue is out at the end of this month, on the last Thursday. Maybe the magazine is going back to the old schedule? I just read it today, and it seemed very out of date. Everything that was being talked about was from January and the very beginning of February, 5/6 weeks is just too long I think. The legitimacy of the reader's comments is a bit iffy now in my opinion as well. In the past couple of issues, comments have been credited with such ridiculous names as "Mr. C.L" (Two issues in a row), "Mr. S" and "Mr. L". I hope I'm just looking into it too much though, as when I look past the constant ripping into certain wrestlers and the smarky "ROH IS BETTER" comments, I do enjoy a lot of the magazine most of the time. I think for myself there's a really nice feeling about getting a crisp new magazine every month, that you don't get by reading a news site on a screen. With a magazine, you can keep and store them for years and look back down the line on what was. I just wish he would tone down the preaching, and keep it more up to date (Though I do understand that might be impossible, I would gladly take it that way if he trained his fingers not to type things that are going to depress 90% or so of his audience). Everything would be alright then.

  2. What is the closest date prior to any Wrestlemania that either of the top two titles have changed hands?

    Unless I've missed something, it was when Eddie Guerrero won the WWE Title at No Way Out 2004. This was because Wrestlemania was so early that year, and meant it was just one day off of being a month prior.

  3. Did Evolution at any point have every member with a championship?

     

    E.g. HHH, World. Orton, Intercontinental. Batista & Flair, Tag Team.

    Yeah from Armageddon 2003, when Triple H beat Goldberg & Kane in a Triple Threat to win the World Heavyweight Title, Batista & Flair won a Tag Team Turmoil and Orton beat Van Dam for the IC Title.

  4. I do. It's on Sky Box Office. I found this out by looking on WWE.com.

    I asked in here because WWE.COM is often wrong about British TV information. Not only that, but the way their website is set out makes it incredibly hard for me to find out simple International information. So I just thought it'd be much easier and for the sake of time to ask in here, that way me and others in the same situation who don't want to waste time searching that site for what seems like hours on end, have a simple and ready answer. Thank you very much.

  5. Shawn and Marty famously never liked each other for years while as a team. They had a breakdown in the early 90s. Marty's shoot interview has all kinds of stories of them fighting each other, or the other one not bailing the other out of jail when they got in trouble. Marty gave Michaels a good kicking in a hotel room before in 1991, and Marty says thats where the relationship died between the pair. I think there's even a picture knocking about where Michaels has the black eyes from the fight.

     

    Mosh said he thought Thrasher was a tosser in his shoot interview. Warrior and Sting aren't the best of friends either, based on there personalities clashing back in the Blade Runner days.

    The Headbangers must have tried putting up with each other for one last run in the Indies, as the pair uploaded a video challenge to Youtube a while back. I also had no idea about Michaels & Jannetty either, I have heard somewhere that Marty wasn't happy with their WWF push and the split happened soon after and that was that. Had no idea there were fights between the pair. Oh well, cheers.

  6. Oh thanks. It's a shame really that the relaunch couldn't have gone through. I was just thinking as well that maybe if they had of given him a lighter schedule there wouldn't have been as much pressure, but he couldn't cope with the same sort of thing in his TNA runs either.

  7. I guess this would be the right place to ask this. I'm thinking of buying a TNA made T Shirt from A Merch (The Black and white Hulkamania one), and I was wondering what the materials are like. All the WWE one's I've bought in the last couple of years have been really uncomfortable hard cotton, so I wanted to know if TNA's shirts are more comfortable? Also, do they have any big giant TNA logos anywhere noticeable? Thanks.

  8. I'm looking to buy one of the Hulk Hogan boxsets the WWE released. Can anyone recommend me which is the best one to get? Cheers

    It depends if you have any of his WWF PPV matches on other sets and what you are looking for. Both sets released after the name change are decent, the first includes alot of his bigger matches (1st title win against Iron Sheik, early Wrestlemania's, Starrcade against Sting, 2002 PPV returns etc) and can be found here:

    The second is as the name suggest all previously Unreleased on official DVDs, so unless you have DVD-R's or old tapes your not going to have any doubles. I myself just watched the set and really enjoyed it. http://www.silvervision.co.uk/products/Hul...VD-3-Discs.html. I preferred the second one as I have the Tagged Classics so the first is only really for the early WWF and the WCW stuff. The second one can be found on Amazon brand new for

  9. Did Stone Cold ever wrestle Edge? I'm struggling to think of the two being together in any form ever.

    I don't think they ever had a one on one, but they were on opposing teams on Raw at the start of 2001 (15th Jan):

     

    Bradshaw & Farooq & Steve Austin Vs. Christian & Edge & Kurt Angle

     

    EDIT: Here you go, they're in the ring together form about 34 seconds onwards, albeit briefly:

    Oh right cheers, it seems strange thinking that they were on the same roster for 4 years yet hardly ever made an appearance together. I can't think that'd happen often now.
