    Got this in from eBay -- does anybody know a great way to compile a bunch of scans together and uploading it for others to grab?  I'm thinking of doing a post about the final issue of WCW Magazine and putting a download link at the very end of it.  Would it be easier to save them into a CBR file??

    OCT WRESTLING CHIT CHAT THREAD

    I went through and tried to map out the famous undefeated, 173-0 streak of Goldberg that gets dismissed a lot today and I got up to Goldberg losing to Kevin Nash on his 162nd match.  Has the WWE or WCW ever gone and listed an official match listing for his streak? The one on the old BillGoldberg.com page had several doubles (they counted the taping and airdate for certain WCW Worldwide matches) and a couple other lists I've found stop around 150.

     

    Also, feel free to click-through and correct my post if I've messed up. I cycled through three sites and think I have a solid list.

    Listening to Flair on Austin's podcast revealed that the WWE guys weren't happy with Flair behavior at all, but the 2K guys and gaming dudes there all loved it.  I even heard the GiantBomb crew joke around on their podcast about how crazy Flair was.  They even told a story about how Alex asked Flair point-blank about his involvment with Red Alert 3 and Flair had no clue what he was talking about.

     

     

    Also, here's a little something I made last night when I was bored.  Everytime I see a commercial of this show, I can only think of one thing:

    The Wrestling Book Thread

    I noticed Luger's book was available on Kindle.

     

    Not worth it.  I wrote a small review of it over at my old site Drop ToeHold as I got my hands on a review copy.  There's no real meat to anything in his book and he just flies through everything.

     

    Super disappointed, but here's a bit about showing up unannounced on WCW Monday Nitro and pissing off Hogan:

    "When I arrived at the Mall of America, I had a towel over my head and was immediately escorted to the inner bowels of the mall, well away from the locker room and central concourse area where everything was happening. It wasn’t until that moment that I knew how it was all going to come down. ‘At the very end of the show you’ll come out in your street clothes,’ Eric told me, ‘and get nose-to-nose with Hulk Hogan."

     

    "My entrance was definitely a surprise — to the crowd and to the other wrestlers gathered there.

     

    I walked up to Hogan and said my line: ‘I’m back at the WCW to wrestle with the big boys.’

     

    I was still in Hogan’s face when they signaled for a short commercial break. Knowing we were off the air momentarily, I broke character and smiled at Hogan. It was a big mistake.  'Wipe that grin off your face, or I'll knock it off. You're stealing money from me and my family right now,' he said to me through gritted teeth.

     

    I immediately stopped smiling.

     

    After the show I tried to apologize to him, but he brushed me off. I learned a big lesson from him that night: never break character when on camera in front of the fans — even on a commercial break.”
