My understanding is that Fighting Spirit Magazine is still going. What's the deal with Pro-Wrestling Illustrated, is the one over here the same as the US version, or a special UK version?
I suppose there is WWE Kids as well still going.

Another one who used to buy Power Slam religiously. Can’t be the only one who mainly bought it for the Q&A!

The Q&A was great, I used to enjoy Stately Wayne Manor's column in PS, even if he was writing from a heel point of view. Think the oldest issue I have is number 33 from April 1997. Occasionally they'd come with a little booklet covering different topics, two I remember were the writers listing their top 5 cards and the other listed real names, birthdays and stuff. I remember being fascinated to find out that wrestlers had actual real names. I also remember it had a full page picture of Sunny on the inside of the front cover that I'd gaze at (having just learnt her real name is Tammy Sytch). |

Ah, Power Slam.
I think I bought it every month since the 4th or 5th issue. Such a helpful and informative read. Best mag I’ve ever read and I couldn’t understand why early issues of Fighting Spirit would slag it off.
The day I bought my monthly copy was always a good day and it had good re-read value too.

It's so depressing walking into a WH Smith now and seeing only one wrestling magazine if you're lucky. I truly miss WWE Magazine and Power Slam. Might have to buy some back issues of each for Christmas.
This was the month that the annual PS 50 issue would be out as well.
On a funny note, I asked Fin Martin on his Facebook who number one was in this year's PS 50 as a joke and he bestowed the honour upon me! My heel turn and narcissistic gimmick change is imminent now...

I did buy a coupl of wcw magazines, in around early 200 time, wish I had kept them!, I have the odd couple of wwe magazines too from around 10 years ago too. Who remembers back in the 90's Raw magazine was tagged 'for the mature fan'.

Bought the February 2003 edition of Raw Magazine a few weeks ago after watching a few episodes of Raw from early 2003 on the Network. Might make buying back issues a regular thing as there are loads I didn't get over the years. I'll be sticking to issues from 2000 to 2004.

Powerslam was great. I remember trading a few VHS.
Loved Facts and fun parts. Great magazine.
