Also, If you have any questions or want to comment about any of the matches go right on ahead. There are about 7 or 8 Benoit matches that I've heard of but don't know enough a…

This interview that will give you behind the scenes access to how WWF/WWE operated, the truth and fiction behind the infamous TNA milk and cookie delivery to the WWE dur…

Link here This is worth reading, even if I'm not quite sure how it all ties together as an article or what to say about it. I guess you could consider it a nice inside view into the psyche of a wrestler, but be forewarned that it's all over the place.

Hacked from HTQ at TSM, who I've asked to post here, but hasn't surfaced yet. This is a great read. The World Wrestling Federation needs to, now, commission a study of why they and wrestling in general are losing the over-30 audience so rapidly. This goes against the company thought process, because despite what may be said publicly, the company's target age group and strongest demo per capita is Males 12-24. However, the age group that is losing interest in wrestling the fastest is those over the age of 30, who make up the vast majority television viewership for most programs (average viewership age of most network hit shows is early 40s), and are traditionally the m…
