The commercial which aired yesterday on RAW said this book would be out today, but I did not see it at Barnes and Noble and their website as well as Amazon say Nov 19th. Did anybody find it?
I really enjoyed the first edition - it would be the book I would want with me on a deserted island.

Really not sure, but I guess It's out. I even saw the cover on the net.

Ordered it months ago through Amazon, for 25.00...WWE said today was the release date.

I'm interested to see if Chris Benoit will be in it. I've always wanted one of the first ones so I'll probably pick this one up once I'm able to flip through it.

They removed any mention of his matches in Wrestlemania Magazines they've published, but he was in the Encyclopedia. Kinda creepy.

Like I'm not a fan of having a collection of WWE history without him but at the same time you obviously remember him for what he did. I expect him to be in it honestly.

At the SmackDown live show last Sunday, Tony Chimel mentioned it was available now.

I ordered one off Barnes and Noble. It was like $31 (included tax) with free shipping. Not sure if that's a good deal but we will see how fast it ships.

Has much changed/been added from the first edition? I guess all they could really do is add the newer guys and extra achievements onto people's entries, but I'm not sure it's worth me double-dipping.

I skimmed through most and yea, its mostly updated with new guys, results, title reigns, home media, WWE films etc. They added a paragraph or two for people, like Randy Savage for example got a full page mentioning he passed away by suffering a heart attack.

I'm shocked WWE decided to include Benoit. Here is part of an interview that was conducted with Vince in 2009: Funny thing is on Classics on Demand they remove Benoit matches from PPVs. For example they aired Summerslam 2005 last year and instead of starting with Benoit vs. Orlando Jordon which was the first match of the card, they started with Edge vs Matt Hardy.
