WWF, 1993 Text by RD Reynolds You might have missed it, but WWE just celebrated its 1,000 epsiode of Raw. I mean, yeah, you may have missed it (it wasn’t like the company beat you over the head with its impending arrival for months on end), but I sure didn’t. With such a monumental event upon me, I decided to go Continue Reading...

25 Submitted by RD Reynolds on Sun, 04 August 2013, 20:51Quick note from RD Reynolds: All of us here at WrestleCrap.com are saddened by Art Donovan’s passing. His family and friends are in our thoughts and prayers! WWF King of the Ring, 1994 Text by Harry Simon We’ve all done it.

Classic Induction: TNA’s Early Days – Fat Guys Named ‘Cheex’, Midgets in Trash Cans, Flying Elvises – What More Could You Want??
23 Submitted by RD Reynolds on Fri, 26 July 2013, 09:15 A Special Look Back at the First Days of NWA-TNA After the WrestleCrap induction of the wrestling penises (or is that pen-i?) known as The Johnsons a couple of weeks back, I have been bombarded with requests for some of the more…how can I put this nicely?…idiotic characters and angles that plagued the first few weeks of NWA-TNA’s Continue Reading...
Classic Induction: Goonies R Good Enough – But Are They Good Enough to Stand Up to Piper, Blassie, and Sheik?
10 Submitted by RD Reynolds on Fri, 19 July 2013, 10:06Music Video, 1985 Text by RD Reynolds Not sure if I’ve ever mentioned it or not, but I am a child of the 1980′s. And if I haven’t…well, to be fair, you’d probably have to be an knuckle dragging mouth breather to have not noticed it. Listen to one episode of WrestleCrap Radio (come on, we really want to break a dozen listeners!), Continue Reading...
Classic Induction: Thunder in Paradise 2 – Because the World DEMANDED a Sequel!!
4 Submitted by RD Reynolds on Mon, 01 July 2013, 23:02It’s taken years. Even I don’t know how many. But I do know, unequivacably, that it has taken years. It’s been in ways my worst fear, my unconquerable foe. And yet here I stand before you, staring death in the face, all for you, my loyal Crappers. For the day has finally come when I will review Thunder in Paradise Continue Reading...
Classic Induction: Headlock on my Heart – In This Ring, I Thee Wed
13 Submitted by RD Reynolds on Fri, 28 June 2013, 09:15Country Music Video, 1987 Special Thanks to Fellow Crapper Punisher Bass for Finding the Tape for Us! I think sometimes that it’s hard for younger Crappers to get a feel for just how big a star Hulk Hogan was in the mid 1980′s. Kids, he was everywhere: he was on The Tonight Show with Johnny Carson, he was on Hot Properties with Continue Reading...
Classic Induction: Grunt – The Most Influential Wrestling Movie Ever Made!
8 Submitted by RD Reynolds on Mon, 24 June 2013, 09:15Theatrical Motion Picture, 1985 I have to admit – I was perhaps overexcited at the thought that we were going to dedicate an entire month here at the Crap to wrestling movies. If there’s one thing I love more than horrible wrestling, it’s horrible movies. Tell me we’re watching Schindler’s List tonight, and I will probably pass. Tell me it’s Continue Reading...
Classic Induction: 3 Ninjas on MegaMountain – Featuring Hulk Hogan, Karate Warrior
16 Submitted by RD Reynolds on Fri, 21 June 2013, 09:15Theatrical Motion Picture, 1998 If there was one thing I was disappointed with in the WrestleCrap book, it was the fact that although I spent an entire chapter covering Hulk Hogan’s movie career, I had to cut short pretty much anything past Thunder in Paradise. After all, the book was called “WrestleCrap”, not “HoganMovieCrap” (although, come to think of it, Continue Reading...
Classic Induction: Family Matters with the Bushwackers – Cousin Luke, Cousin Butch, and Cousin URKEL??!!
15 Submitted by RD Reynolds on Mon, 10 June 2013, 09:00Television Show, 1994 Text by Triple Kelly One of the most popular sitcoms of the 90s was a snazzy little series called Family Matters. The character of Harriette Winslow originally appeared on Perfect Strangers as the elevator operator of Larry and Balki’s at the Chicago Chronicle, which in those days…and probably now, was enough for ABC Network to greenlight a spin-off for Continue Reading...
