OUCH-! SAMOA JOE vs NECRO BUTCHER (live review)
By popular demand, TC WATTS & ZIP WHITTLE have begun their live reviewing adventure and started with quite a doozy. It's SAMOA JOE vs (the) NECRO BUTCHER from IWA MS 6/11/05 in Philadelphia, PA. This was an insane affair that had the entire wrestling community buzzing about the dangerous bumps and insane stiffness. WARNING: The events in this match quickly invoke strong reactions from your hosts including cursing! Even a podcast about this match is explicit. Listen to us call a match that involved ZW using the phrase, "Like a Freight Train being hit with a space shuttle." INDEED.

TEN COMMANDMENTS FOR PROMO TAPES-!
The TEN COMMANDMENTS FOR PROMO TAPES by Zip Whittle
(closely adapted from an 2004 article by NWA Wildside President Bill Behrens)
I/ Thou shall rewind thy tape and mail securely using “Media Mail”.
II/ Thou shall identify thyself clearly and thy contact information (email & phone number) shall be up-to-date and valid. Thy phone number wilts have an answering machine or voicemail.
III/ Thy gear shall be real ring gear (not jeans & t-shirt).
IV/ Thy tape wilt not start with a promo and shall not include hardcore matches.
V/ Thou shall include one good, recent match that is well-taped.
VI/ Thy tape shall showcase thine ability to bump and sell as well as high spots and offense.
VII/ Thou shall realize that matches with established stars art a double-edged sword. Canst thine viewer know if you were being carried through the match?
VIII/ Thou shall not burn thine bridges with promoters, nay even if they be dullards! Thy mouth’s reputation wilt precedes thee.
IX/ Bewared thee of claiming recommendations from wrestlers unless they truly believeth thou art good (and not just being nice or ribbing thee)!
X/ Includeth a brief lineage of deeds (bio) and recent photograph of thee with thine package!
Other points:
• Get a passport.
• Always bring your gear in your car. Keep it clean.
• Be respectful. Introduce yourself to everyone in the locker room.
• Don’t promote yourself on message boards. Start a website.
• Your ring name shouldn’t be based on a current wrestling star.
• Recent matches are more important than long matches. A promo tape with old matches implies that you haven’t done anything worthwhile recently.
• A highlight tape is fine if it’s more than just one spot repeated! Be sure to include a complete match though to prove you can do more than just high spots!

New Show! 12-23-05
Literally an hour of news, views and reviews! We have tons of TNA, WWE and MMA news - it was eleven pages of material and it took us over 60 minutes to cover it! Where is Steven Richards? What new titles is TNA planning for 2006 and which ones are just rumors? Who is starting a new MMA promotion? Why do we love Belgium? What unusual person is showing up for the ECW DVD and what does Cheerleading have to do with wrestling anyhow? Who went from a deathmatch tournament to the WWE in ten years and is back in Japan? Whose birthday (in two days) signals a possible return to the WWE? And a request for our Canadaian fans...
