90's Wrestling: Our time in the ring

Mike and I meet up to talk about one of the greatest eras in Professional Wrestling, the 1990's. However, before we get to the meat of the topic we get to talking about the time we spent as Wrestlers on the British circuit. 

We talk about the promotions we worked for and other wrestlers we worked with. It is a really good look at our perspective on the industry and the sport. 

The best film I ever read.

A look at film novelizations, how they can enhance the film and what they provide for fans.
