Crapper Louis Izzo writes: A few months ago, I sent in pictures from an issue of WWF Magazine, Summer of 1993, which advertised a weird plaque of WrestleMania IX that would have your name in the marquee. I couldn’t imagine anyone spending money on such an odd looking piece of merchandise, but then I saw this in the November Continue Reading...

Looks like your friendly neighborhood Headlie writer has finally made it to the big time! My very first review on Wrestlecrap. Oh, how I’ve waited for this moment. Sadly those hopes were dashed when I saw this pop up on Facebook: Uh oh. Admittedly, I thought this meant that Vince Russo shooting on me in the upcoming RD and Blade Continue Reading...
It Came From YouTube: When you hear this song, Linda McMahon is coming to spice things up!
5 Submitted by "The Big Cheese" Paul Kraft on Sat, 03 May 2014, 02:00You may know this song as the WrestleMania song from WrestleMania: The Album (buy your copy today!), but true wrestling fans know that if you take out the vocals and all the sound clips, it magically becomes Linda McMahon’s theme song! Thus ensuring that if you hear this instrumental, you’re sure to be in for some fine robotic “emoting” and Continue Reading...

20 Submitted by Jordan Mishkin on Fri, 02 May 2014, 08:00Toluca Lake, CA – WWE officials, superstars, and volunteers gathered in Toluca Lake, California to launch a large-scale search party to find missing Diva JoJo. “Listen up, ladies and gentle,” said Vince McMahon, his WWE windbreaker flapping in the breeze. “We have a missing Diva out there.

Someone Bought This: WCW Talking Sting Mug
6 Submitted by "The Big Cheese" Paul Kraft on Fri, 02 May 2014, 02:00Bryan (who runs the awesome WCW Worldwide blog) found this goofy WCW Talking Sting Mug (?!). Here’s what he wrote about it on the blog entry: Featuring classic Stinger quips like “UGHHH…” and “I’ll be back”!! Yeah, that just about sums it up. I guess when Sting isn’t threatening the NWO, or constipated, he’s impersonating Arnold Schwarzenegger? This is one of Continue Reading...

It Came From YouTube: Let’s go on a picnic with Waylon Mercy.
16 Submitted by "The Big Cheese" Paul Kraft on Thu, 01 May 2014, 02:00I love this promo so much. Waylon Mercy manages to make a nonsensical promo about picnics entertaining. I could listen to him rattle off picnic food all day. What do picnics have to do with wrestling? Nothing! Nothing at all. But who cares? This is amazing....
Someone Bought This: The Nasty Boys know how to look tough in their own t-shirt
8 Submitted by "The Big Cheese" Paul Kraft on Wed, 30 April 2014, 02:00Another gem from the WCW Worldwide Blog, it’s an early 90’s WCW Nasty Boys t-shirt. Because nothing says “Dangerous, street-tough punks” like an acid-washed t-shirt. This shirt would go perfect with some vintage early 90’s acid-washed jeans and a jean jacket. Oh yeah, and a mullet. Then you’ll be all set to conquer Nastyville in style!...
Rewriting The Book presents – An RTB editorial (beta test)
31 Submitted by Jed Shaffer on Mon, 28 April 2014, 20:37Hi! Probably not what you were expecting when you saw “RTB” on a column header. Sorry about that. Anyway, welcome to the experiment! I’m trying out something new here … a way to stay in touch with you, the loyal fanbase, during the hiatuses (hiati?) between editions of the column. Maybe do some Q&A, or riffing on RTB ideas that Continue Reading...

3 Submitted by "The Big Cheese" Paul Kraft on Mon, 28 April 2014, 02:00Crapper Amanda White writes: We are Dynamite, the predecessor to “Young Strong and Healthy?” It’s got PN News, Giant Haystacks, Owen Hart… Wow! I’ve never seen this before! Apparently it was for a promotion called the CWA (Catch Wrestling Association) out of Europe. That’s a pretty catchy song, actually!...

(I know, he’s not one for Japanese wrestling, but still…) Wow! Those two guys are really rise to the occasion! They aren’t loafing around… This match really is the best thing since sliced bread. They deserve a toast for their efforts! Continue Reading...

Someone Bought This: TNA Willow Golf Umbrella
15 Submitted by "The Big Cheese" Paul Kraft on Sat, 26 April 2014, 02:00Crapper Benjamin Trecroci writes: Or at least they think someone will buy it. Wow, it’s not just an umbrella, it’s a golf umbrella! I didn’t think it was possible to look any dumber playing golf, but if you bring this thing with you onto the golf course, then fore-gat about it! I think even The Joker from the 60’s Batman Continue Reading...

It Came From YouTube: WWE Aggression combines theme music with rap and makes crap
7 Submitted by "The Big Cheese" Paul Kraft on Fri, 25 April 2014, 02:00Crapper Jim Shea writes: Ahh yes, back in 2000, WWF compiled some of the biggest rap stars to do rap versions of WWF theme songs, it was certainly a mixed bag. Sure there was Snoop, Run DMC, Method Man, and Redman on there, but I seem to remember there were a few songs that were laughably bad. Big Show’s theme Continue Reading...
Induction: Barry Didinsky – Life’s a pitch, and then you buy an Undertaker jean jacket
58 Submitted by Art0Donnell on Thu, 24 April 2014, 20:00WWF, 1995 Hulk Hogan. Steve Austin. D-Generation X. The nWo. What do they all have in common? All of them generated huge merchandise sales. Also, unfortunately for Vince McMahon, none of these entities were wrestling in the WWF in 1995. So what could a promoter do when none of his stars were exactly raking in the cash at the merch Continue Reading...

Someone Bought This: The Giant Gonzalez Hasbro figure is amazing and it can be yours!
20 Submitted by "The Big Cheese" Paul Kraft on Thu, 24 April 2014, 05:26I stumbled upon this Giant Gonzalez Hasbro figure on Amazon. Here’s a picture of the Amazon listing: Several things crossed my mind immediately when I found this wonderful figure: 1. Someone (and possibly several people) at Hasbro and WWE said amongst themselves “Yes! That Giant Gonzalez guy is really going to connect with the kids! We must strike while the iron Continue Reading...
It Came From YouTube: The Rock appears on That 70’s Show as his dad
5 Submitted by "The Big Cheese" Paul Kraft on Thu, 24 April 2014, 02:00Crapper Mike Burke writes: The Rock plays his father Rocky Johnson on a season 1 episode of “That 70’s Show” with Ernie Ladd appearing as his manager. (Ken Shamrock and the Hardys also made an appearance.) That opening joke by The Rock was great! This would’ve been so much better without the cutesey reference to The Rock thrown in, though....

Check this shirt featuring Tetsuya Naito being managed by none other than Astro Boy. Also here’s a T-shirt for last year’s G1 Climax featuring Kinnikuman whose toyline was brought to the US twice under the name M.U.S.C.L.E in the 1980s and later “Ultimate Muscle” in 2002.
