    Cubed Circle Newsletter 241 – Consistency is Hard As many of probably noticed, we have been posting late and sporadically for the last month. This was, obviously, not our intention, but with the second semester eating into my free time, staying up to date is a tall order. Even without the newsletter itself seeing weekly publication the site has still remained up to date on a weekly basis, thanks primarily to co-author Ben Carass, as well as guest writers Paul Cooke and Leslie Lee III. But, the newsletter has survived for well over 241 weeks, and will hopefully thrive in the years to come. I have attempted to make provisions for publishing related tasks which should minimize the risk of major delays (obviously there will be some regular delays, as this late issue can attest), but we have some fail safes in place in order to keep this to a minimum. With all of this said, we have a great issue for everyone this week with Paul Cooke discussing the Pro-Wrestling Only Greatest Wrestler Ever project and his personal experience with the poll, Ben covers the news including tons of results from Japan and the Lesnar USADA violation, the Mixed Bag returns with a look at comedy wrestling, Ricochet/Ospreay, and a potential WWE match of the year -- plus Ben also looks at last Sunday's Battleground show and the first RAW of the brand split (a very good show). Also, for those unaware, we now have an official Twitter account @CubedCircleWres allowing the banger to unprecedented highs at @BenCarass and @RyanClingman.

  • Lance Armstrong: Uphill Racer ‐‐ Printout ‐‐ TIME Page 1 of 3
    Lance Armstrong: Uphill Racer ‐‐ Printout ‐‐ TIME Page 1 of 3 Back to Article Click to Print Monday, Jul. 24, 2000 Lance Armstrong: Uphill Racer By Joel Stein;Bruce Crumley/Le Quesne The Tour de France is supposed to be a team sport, in which a group of riders employs wind-blocking strategies and well-timed sacrifices to deliver victory to their designated star cyclist. Not this year. With his U.S. Postal Service team struggling to get up the race's first mountain stage last Monday, Lance Armstrong took off from them. Then he took off from his European challengers, effectively ending the 2,254-mile, 23-day race in an astonishing eight-mile sprint through the rain and up the Pyrenees. Only a crash will stop him from being first when the race finishes in Paris this Sunday. Armstrong's uphill surge was perhaps the most dominating move in the 97-year history of the race. As if the 4-min. lead he had gained over his nearest rivals wasn't devastating enough, he destroyed their psyches by smoothly accelerating in the saddle while they stood above their seats and pumped. And that was while each was fronted by a teammate to break the wind. "I had the impression I was watching someone descending a hill I was trying to scale," said French rider Stephane Heulot. Two years ago, Armstrong was more than halfway dead, his testicular cancer having spread to his lungs and brain. A kind doctor told him he had a 40% chance of surviving. But through a combination of surgery, chemotherapy and drugs, he managed to beat the disease.

The myth of the unbeatable fighter is just that, a myth. In what will go down as the single most memorable UFC fight in history, Ronda Rousey was not only defeated, but systematically destroyed by a fighter and a coaching staff that had spent years preparing for that night. On 2/28, Holly Holm and Ronda Rousey were the two co-headliners on a show at the Staples Center in Los Angeles. The idea was that Holm, a former world boxing champion, would impressively knock out Raquel Pennington, a .500 level fighter who was known for exchanging blows and not taking her down. Rousey was there to face Cat Zingano, a fight that was supposed to be the hardest one of her career. Holm looked unimpressive, barely squeaking by in a split decision. Rousey beat Zingano with an armbar in 14 seconds.

    Cubed Circle Newsletter 227 – We're Late, Just Like Gawker Media (RIP) We are back with a very late newsletter this week due almost entirely to lab report related delays. However, there is still a lot to discuss in this week's issue, including all of the news with Sting's retirement, upcoming cards, the “conclusion” to the Gawker trial, which is really only the beginning – and much more in the Pro-Wres Digest with Ben Carass. Plus, the Mixed Bag returns with a look at what may very well have been the best match of the year up until this point, discussion of WWE aesthetics, ROH, and must see BASARA. Ben also looks at last week's edition of RAW, Roadblock, and Mid-South from '82 with the infamous airing of the first Kamala vignette on Mid-South TV through 2016 eyes! – Ryan Clingman, Cubed Circle Newsletter Editor The Pro-Wres Digest for March 13th – March 19th.

[EDITOR'S NOTE: This report was left unedited and was intended to have been posted on March 20th, as such, some of the information may be out of date, and further information may be available for some stories.] TMZ broke the story on 17/3 that Steve “Sting” Borden's wrestling career is officially over, with the typically classy headline, “Sting Retiring from Wrestling...Neck's Too Jacked Up,” - quality journalism. Sting had not wrestled since facing Seth Rollins for the WWE title at Night of Champions on September 20th 2015 in a match where he suffered a neck injury while taking a Powerbomb into the turnbuckle.

  • The Full 100+ Page Pdf!
    2014 was a unique year for pro-wrestling, one that will undoubtedly be viewed as historically significant in years to follow. Whether it is to be reflected upon positively or negatively is not only highly subjective, but also context-specific with major occurrences transpiring across the pro-wrestling world over the last 12 months, each with its own strong, and at times far reaching, consequences. The WWE launched its much awaited Network, New Japan continued to expand, CMLL booked lucha's biggest match in well over a decade, culminating in the country's first million dollar gate, TNA teetered more precariously on the brink of death than perhaps ever before, Daniel Bryan won the WWE's top prize, Dragon Gate and DDT saw continued success before their loyal niche audiences, Alberto Del Rio and CM Punk departed the WWE with one ending up in the most unexpected of places, a developing and divergent style produced some of the best indie matches of the year, the European scene flourished, the Shield disbanded, Batista returned, Daniel Bryan relinquished his championship, and the Undertaker's streak came to an unexpected and dramatic end. These are but some of the happenings, which made 2014 the year that it was, and it is in this year-book that we look to not only recap all of these events and more, but also contemplate their relevance to the greater pro-wrestling landscape, both for 2015 and beyond. It should be stated that this year-book was inspired by the DKP Annuals that were released in 2011 and 2012, in fact, it was the absence of a 2013 annual that inspired us to produce a year-book for 2014.

Gathered over the past 10 months in Qatar, Turkey, Britain and elsewhere, hundreds of activists have isolated Egypt’s army- backed government diplomatically for last year’s removal of an elected Brotherhood-backed administration. The senior figures keep busy, shuttling between London, Doha and Istanbul to strategize in countries that still tolerate the movement, the standard-bearer of mainstream Sunni politi- cal Islam since it was founded in Egypt in 1928. But a political rebirth will be tough, even for a movement long adept at sur- viving repression and exile. Former army chief Abdel Fattah Al- Sisi, who deposed the Brotherhood’s elected president Mohamed Morsi last year and has since led a violent crackdown against its followers, is all but certain to win Egypt’s presidency in an election next week. He says that when he takes charge, the Brotherhood, which seemed an unstoppable electoral force after autocrat Hosni Mubarak was toppled in 2011, will cease to exist. Hundreds of Brotherhood followers were gunned down on Cairo streets when the army destroyed a protest camp after Morsi was top- pled last year.
