Has Dormehl written the Undertaker article then? Judging on past form with him and the subject of Taker, I might have to give this issue a miss!

 

Yes he has, but it isnt as heavy on references from 1800's historian authors but more on wrestling books from the past such as lawlers, foleys or dutch mantells so the article doesnt suffer from the usual strange and pointless comparisions.

From what i've read so far its been good. Yeh enjoyed the Hennig article. Nice story about his barnet for ss91. It was a terrible do.

Its interesting to hear cornette say that bearer would have loved all the pre mania shenanigans with punk and taker.

The siren is a top sort. Not sure what that siren search is all about but its always good to see a bit of eye candy in a mag.

Good point that. I 'look' at the siren page every month and gawk over the fit birds, but I have been getting the mag for ages and have absolutely no idea what it is about. What exactly is a FSM Siren? Brian, care to shed any light? May actually be half an idea to include a description in the magazine itself. Kinda reminds me of later-year WCW.
