These are incredible times to be a professional wrestling fan. The state of WWE might not lead one to draw such a conclusion, but even the most cynical fan should be able to find a whole host of things that work for them right now. WWE is going through a real injury crisis yet are surviving, as the roster is as stacked as it has ever been. Lauded independent talent are now getting the chance to show their stuff on the biggest stage. Outside of WWE, there has never been so much wrestling out there, waiting for us to watch and enjoy. Are you looking for something more in-ring based, full of fast spots and state-of-the-art technical wrestling? Try Pro Wrestling Guerilla or Ring of Honor.

Born in the middle of Wales in the middle of the 1980's, John can't quite remember when he started watching wrestling but he has a terrible feeling that Dino Bravo was involved. Now living in Prague, John spends most of his time trying to work out how Tomohiro Ishii still stands upright. His favourite wrestler of all time is Dean Malenko, but really it is Repo Man. He is the author of 'An Illustrated History of Slavic Misery', the best book about the Slavic people that you haven't yet read. You can get that and others from www.poshlostbooks.com.
