    LOOOL any of the old heads here will recognize this!  God damn, this brings back memories.  This dude was a weirdo who used to post here and always talked about writing this book — it was even in his sig — but it never materialized.  We’d always make fun of him, asking what the other half of the job was.  

    Yea Jon Barber. He died earlier this year,appears to be suicide. He had the book finished but wanted to have it come out in 2024 on the 25th anniversary of the first XPW show. Pretty decent book.

  2. 9/11 was an odd day for me. My Aunt was in the hospital about to die from the cancer she had been fighting for 5 years. I slept in that day,had passed out in my recliner in the living room the night before. I woke up and the tv was on MTV. The sound was off and I thought "This is one odd music video". Took the dog out,had a cig out on the porch. Walked back in and the phone rang. Was my dad telling me my aunt was dead.

    It was hours later I found out what was going on.

    I read Jim Starlin's Metamorphosis Odyssey from Epic Illustrated. I've been reading quite a few Marvel magazines lately, and I feel like they were an untapped avenue for Marvel's creators to enjoy creative freedom and explore their own original ideas instead of trying to shoehorn them into the monthly books. Very few creators took advantage of the possibilities of this new format, and there weren't a lot of successes, but Metamorphosis Odyssey was definitely a success. It was gorgeous to look at and the concept was intriguing. The execution wasn't perfect (it felt a bit rushed to me), but it was magnificent in its scope. I must admit, I immediately thought, "Wow, it's Green Arrow" when Vanth finally appeared. 

    The Rick Vietch stuff from EpiC Illustrated is good. Heartburst IIRC was first printed in there.

  4. Years ago Powerslam Productions held a show in a strip mall church in Picayune MS. This was right after Luke Hawx won the Extreme Rising title off Stevie Richards.

    So Hawx defended the title against one of the guys he was training down in NOLA at the Wildkat school. PRetty sure Luke still has the Extreme Rising belt.

    I just sat down and watched Limitless Wrestling's UNDENIABLE from July 31. Opening match between Kevin Blackwood and JD Drake was amazing, and Ace Romero vs. Eddie Edwards was, IMO, a serious MOTY contender. I got sidelined by a heavy-duty convo so I missed some of the other matches, but this was a really good show.

    Limitless is great. When you got time got watch the three seasons of their weekly show. It was an hour or so each episode and really good.

    I posted a different version of this match last week which had edited out the awesomeness of Lady Lee.  I want to see her ever day.

    ========================

    Ryan Oshun RETURNS!  He is the most hated wrestler by your great aunt on Facebook.  This is in Louisiana and the community center looks slightly more upscale than the ones in Mississippi.

    ===========================

    That's a wonderful title for a Lance Von Erich book! Genius!

    Yea it is a great title. 

     

    Got in the other day a horror fiction book based on Indie wrestler Charlie Kruel. Cover is made to look like a late 80s Horror vhs you would find at the video store. Got it cause Charlie was booked for the Battlezone Southern Belle tournament that was gonna happen in Sept. But now it is cancelled.

     

  8. OH Wow Wrestling WOW got this match. Last month Battlezone brought in the Rock N Roll Express. Match was suppose to be the main event. But between the VIP early entry and when the first match started at 730pm Ricky and Robert had sold everything they had,plus Ricky had  a 600 mile drive. So Leading Edge,made up of MS vets Monty Warbucks and Calvin Rose, agreed to move the match to the one right before intermission.

     

    Not sure,haven't watched all this version,but after the match Ricky got on the mic talked about working nearby towns while in Watt's Mid South. "Hell we are in the WWE HOF and never worked there!" Few of us were like didn;t they work there while in SMW and then later on as part of the short lived NWA invasion?
