  1. RD Reynolds just said on his podcast recently that the book was finished. The original was a good read

  4. Everything I've read said the book was a lot of unsourced crap. Can anyone elaborate?

  5. "Writing assistant"? Blah blah blah yada yada yada Big Show punches Daniel Bryan. Fill in the rest, monkey.

  6. It is a lot of unsourced crap. It's like a bunch of forum ramblings in book form.

  7. So Jeff Hardy and aj are the two young up and comers that hulk thinks have the biggest star potential? Hmmmm...

    ReplyDelete
  8. Yep. And they're both 36.

  9. Unless the Death of WCW book is written by Kevin Sullivan, I'm not reading it. Also, he needs to book TNA.

    "The writing assistant resumed his duties after medical treatment which made Sin Cara look like an even bigger pussy."

  12. Well not like that writer can make Big Show look like anymore of a bitch, so no harm done

    ReplyDelete
  13. Did he accidentally hit the writing assistant or "accidentally" hit him? Because there's a rumor that the assistant was seen giving someone a proper handshake earlier that day.

  14. As I type this cultstatus is at 9999 comments. What will he do for his epic 10,000th comment? TUNE INTO NITRO TO FIND OUT!!!


    (either that or it just stops counting at 9999)

  15. many laughs on the toilet as i read the original.

  16. and holy fuck do I feel old.

    ReplyDelete
  17. More bullshit per pound in the wcw book or when hogan talked about TNA in that interview?

    ReplyDelete
  18. It was my understanding they cited mostly dry statistics like ratings and attendance numbers, so pleasure elaborate on how its unsourced. I'm not defending it. I've never read it. I'm curious as to why you'd make that claim.

    ReplyDelete
  19. Maybe he's retiring at that #. It won't be touched for a long time.

    ReplyDelete
  20. "It won't be touched for a long time."


    Kind of like your wiener! ZING!

    I want to see an F-bomb dropped. Hopefully, he won't have a braineurism while typing his epic post, leaving it incomplete.

    Your sig fucks me up every time I see it.

  23. I'm not one to usually care about such things, but that's impressive. I'm calling it, #10,000 will be a "worked shoot" on Scott.

    ReplyDelete
  24. I think I post pretty frequently... he has more posts over the person in second place than I do total... that's... something.

    ReplyDelete
  25. That's pretty young, compared to how old Hogan is.

    ReplyDelete
  26. I would be embarrased to say I was "writer" or "assistant" on a show that entirely revolves around one dude saying another dude sucks, and then that dude kicking that guy back and calling him "poop". And then HHH beats both guys and they cry.

    ReplyDelete
  27. You accidentally looked down at your wang?

    ReplyDelete
  28. Not that I dislike Jake the Snakeor anything, but Hogan puts him in the all time TOP FIVE??? He's better than Ric Flair, Shawn Micheals, Bret Hart, Undertaker, I could go on and on.
    Jake was great in the ring and had a great gimmick, but come on,top 5?

  29. 10 years later and I'm still pissed I read that WCW book. It was nothing but speculation and conjecture without one quote from anyone involved with WCW. The only other book I've read with such poor writing and a lack of research has been the Bill O'Reily Lincoln book.

    ReplyDelete
  30. It was entertaining though. So there's that.

    ReplyDelete
  31. What you mean by "accidentally"?

    ReplyDelete
  32. Excited for the new edition. Definitely my favorite of the three wrestlecrap books that have been released.

    ReplyDelete
  33. They didn't bother to ask anyone who was actually there and they just reused second and third hand stories as if they were fact.
