Wrestling Encyclopedia

Recommended Posts

Guest ShooterJay

I've been put in charge of putting together a RSPWFAQ-ish type document for the Shooters.net, which will be relaunching March 10th (thumbs up, cheap pop) However, I'm not sure where to start. What do you guys think is absolutely essential, core material for the encyclopedia? Contributors to the actual document are welcomed and encouraged, as I obviously won't be putting it together myself. Thanks y'all.

Since it's been a hot topic on this forum lately, you should do a comparison of Ric Flair and Hulk Hogan and their impact on this sport, positive and negative.

how about some bios of older wrestlers.  i never had the opportunity to watch the wwf through the 80s and early 90s, and i think it would be great to get some background info on some of the names i always hear dropped.

Mcmahon Family Turns: How many? How long did they last?  When was the first one?  Who turned the most?

Things I'd like to see:

 

Hitories & analysis of Japanese, Mexican and European wrestling- how they influenced what we see today, how different styles evolved, etc...

 

A BIG list of finishers / trademark holds- who invented / popularized certain moves, who used them in the WWF. Like, Mick Foley used Kenta Kobashi's Double Arm DDT... Where'd the Undertaker get the Tombstone from originally? This would be great.

 

"Firsts" in wrestling - who did the first ladder match, etc...

 

Luck with the site, dude, I'll be checking it out...

 

Peace y'all...
