  • Cubed Circle Newsletter 201 – We're Not Dead
    Cubed Circle Newsletter 201 – We're Not Dead Given the absence of a newsletter last week following our 200th issue the week prior new readers could be forgiven for thinking that we were on an unannounced extended hiatus. However, as long- time readers will know this newsletter, if anything, is vulnerable to technical difficulties, even ones as trivial as the loss of a laptop charger on holiday. However, after a week off not only are we back with a double issue featuring our last piece of G1 coverage, two weeks of NXT, Mid-South from 1982, and two weeks of RAW featuring Sting, but we also have the debut of a brand new column – the Pro-Wres Digest! The goal of the Digest is to encapsulate the week that was in pro-wrestling in 3-4 pages, providing a TL;DR of sorts for those unable to devote enough time to following every news story that breaks in a given week. – Ryan Clingman, Cubed Circle Newsletter Editor The Pro-Wres Digest for September 6th - 12th. Ben Carass. On Friday September 4th, John Cena was thought to have suffered an injury during a house show match with Kevin Owens in Hampton, VA. Amazingly, it wasn’t the springboard stunner that went wrong but another move John Cena should not be attempting, the code/infrared. Cena went for the move and Owens kind of just fell down on his chest; imagine an axe-guillotine driver but with Owens losing his balance too. When the report first broke, people were freaking out about Cena possibly suffering a neck injury, since they did stop the match for the referee to check on Cena and they went right to the finish after he was checked out.

  • Kevin Von Erich 1 Kevin Von Erich
    Kevin Von Erich 1 Kevin Von Erich Kevin Von Erich Ring name(s) Kevin Von Erich Billed height 6 ft 3 in (1.91 m)[citation needed] Billed weight 222 lb (101 kg)[citation needed] Born May 15, 1957 Belleville, Illinois Billed from Denton, Texas Trained by Fritz Von Erich Debut 1976 Retired 1995 Kevin Ross Adkisson (born May 15, 1957) is a retired professional wrestler under the ring name Kevin Von Erich of the Von Erich Family. He is the last surviving son of wrestler Fritz Von Erich and had four brothers that wrestled, David, Kerry, Mike and Chris, as well as an older brother, Jack, Jr., who died in 1959. Career Football career Kevin Adkisson played football at North Texas State University as a fullback, second string to Garry Smith, until an injury ended his football career and dream of playing in the National Football League. World Class Championship Wrestling Kevin started wrestling as Kevin Von Erich in 1976. He spent most of his career wrestling for his father's promotion, World Class Championship Wrestling. Kevin's natural athletic ability and good looks made him one of the promotion's biggest stars. He achieved great success in the company both as a singles and tag team wrestler, often participating in many of the company's high profile feuds. Kevin was also known for wrestling barefoot, highly unusual in a sport where almost all wrestlers wear high-topped boots. World Class announcers often jokingly referred to him as "The Barefoot Boy" on WCCW broadcasts. Kevin later admitted in an interview that he never set out to wrestle barefoot, but that before one of his matches someone hid his boots as a joke, and he wasn't able to find them before his match, so just went out barefoot to wrestle, and it later became his trademark.

  • Cubed Circle Newsletter 227 – We're Late, Just Like Gawker Media (RIP)
    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. Ben Carass. [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.

  • When Did British Wrestling Get So Big? Ben Carass
    Cubed Circle Newsletter – Best of 2015 Issue With the 2015 Cubed Circle Yearbook and end of the year fast approaching, we have decided to put together a Cubed Circle Recap issue this week, encapsulating some of the best content the newsletter had to offer in 2015 ahead of our biggest issue of the year coming up in less than two weeks. This special issue will be released alongside the new, and hopefully improved, cubedcirclewrestling.com. The site has been made dramatically easier to navigate, and the content is far more organised, which should make for a better user experience. The site logo has also changed, as visitors of the website will quickly notice. As always, any feedback is very much appreciated, particularly as far as the new website is concerned, as, realistically speaking, we should have some growing pains, although the old-site, one could argue, was the manifestation of three or so years of growing pains. But, for now, we hope you enjoy this special issue, and we will be back with another issue in approximately ten days – what will be, if not the biggest, hopefully the best issue we have ever published. Merry Holidays and Happy New Year, everyone! – Ryan Clingman, Cubed Circle Newsletter Editor When Did British Wrestling Get So Big? Ben Carass On November 13th 2004, FWA (Frontier Wrestling Alliance) ran the biggest post-World of Sport era show the British Wrestling scene had ever seen. A reported 1,785 fans saw such names as Terry Funk, Drew McDonald, AJ Styles, Colt Cabana, Paul Burchill, Spud and Doug Williams on the card at the Coventry Skydome that night for British Uprising III.

    Mick Foley Michael Francis "Mick" Foley Sr.[ (born June 7, 1965) is an American retired professional wrestler, writer, color commentator, actor and voice actor. He is currently signed to WWE, where he is the current on-screen general manager of Raw. Foley is widely regarded as one of the greatest wrestlers in the company's history. He has worked for many wrestling promotions, including World Wrestling Federation (WWF, now WWE), World Championship Wrestling(WCW), Extreme Championship Wrestling (ECW), Total Nonstop Action Wrestling (TNA), National Wrestling Alliance (NWA) as well as numerous promotions in Japan. Foley has wrestled under his real name and various personas, including Dude Love, Cactus Jack, and Mankind, also known as the Three Faces of Foley. Foley is a four-time world champion (three WWF Championships and one TNA World Heavyweight Championship), an 11-time world tag team champion (eight WWF Tag Team Championships, two ECW World Tag Team Championships, and one WCW World Tag Team Championship), a one-time TNA Legends Champion, and the inaugural WWF Hardcore Champion. Mick Foley formally trained at Dominic DeNucci's wrestling school in Freedom, Pennsylvania, driving several hours weekly from his college campus in Cortland, New York, and debuted in 1986. In addition to appearing on DeNucci's cards, Foley and several other students also took part in some squash matches as jobbers for WWF TV tapings of Prime Time Wrestling and Superstars of Wrestling, where Foley wrestled under the name, Jack Foley and Nick Foley. In one of these matches (the very first episode of Superstars), Foley and Les Thornton (another jobber) faced the British Bulldogs, during which the Dynamite Kid clotheslined Foley with such force that he was unable to eat solid food for several weeks.

  • We're Late! We Are Back This Week with Ben Captaining the Ship!
    Cubed Circle Newsletter #226 – We're Late! We are back this week with Ben captaining the ship! In this issue we look at all of the news from the week in the Pro-Wres Digest for March 6th to March 12th with the unfortunate passing of Lord James Blears, his legendary World War II survival story, TNA seemingly in jeopardy again, Kota Ibushi news, Dragon Kid's Hayabusa speech and much more! Plus, Mid-South from '82, and the Roadblock go-home show! – Ryan Clingman, Cubed Circle Newsletter Editor The Pro-Wres Digest for March 6th – March 12th Ben Carass. On March 5th Lord James “Tally Ho” Blears sadly passed away at the grand old age of 92, which is an impressive age to reach for the average human being but for a pro wrestler is pretty damn miraculous. Blears was born in Manchester, England in 1925 and became a big star in the 1950's in California where he assumed the gimmick of a snobby English Lord and went full-out with the full cape, monocle and cane look. While in California, Blears would hold several incarnations of the NWA and WWA Tag Team championships, first with Anthol Layton in 1953, and later in 1955 with Gene Kiniski; Blears & Kininski beat Mike & Ben Sharpe for the NWA Tag Team titles on May 7th 1955 in San Francisco. He was also a fixture of the popular outpost territory in Australia and in 1957 he had a series of matches against Lou Thesz for the NWA World Heavyweight title: 31/8/57 in Melbourne, 5/9/57 in Sydney, 9/11/57 in Brisbane and 14/11/57 in Melbourne again.

Plus, Mid-South from 1982 and the Extreme Rules go-home show. – Ryan Clingman, Cubed Circle Newsletter Editor The Pro-Wres Digest for May 14th – May 21st. Ben Carass. Top Stories: Johnny Walker, the legendary Mr Wrestling II, underwent surgery to repair an aortic aneurysm on 15/5. The last word from his son Robert was that the surgery couldn't have gone any better and the 81 year-old Walker was recovering in the ICU for a couple of days. Here's Robert Walker's full statement from 15/5: "Thank you everyone so much for your thoughts and prayers. The doctor came out of surgery and explained that everything went extremely well and couldn't have gone any better. Dad is in the ICU recovery for the next few days and should have him up and moving soon. As you may or may not know, an aneurysm on the aorta is a ticking time bomb and could rupture at any minute.

  • Cubed Circle Newsletter 223 – Good 'Ol Uncle Paul
    Cubed Circle Newsletter 223 – Good 'ol Uncle Paul After a slow news week packed with university commitments we are back with the 223rd issue of the Cubed Circle Newsletter looking at news from the week in wrestling, the most important item perhaps being the announcement of the 'Global Cruiserweight Series', as well as Mania direction and Weekend activities. Plus, Ben also discusses RAW from Monday, the go-home show for Fastlane, and a stacked edition of Mid-South wrestling from 1982! – Ryan Clingman, Cubed Circle Newsletter Editor The Pro-Wres Digest for February 14th – February 20th. Ben Carass. WWE sent out a press release on 16/2 announcing a new concept for the Network with the “Global Cruiserweight Series”. The new show will be taped at Full Sail University and is set to premier on July 13th at 9pm EST after NXT on Wednesday evening. The series will run until September 14th and will feature 32 wrestlers, all of whom have to be under 205lbs. Two of the most high profile indie names that were at the WWE try-out camp this week were Cedric Alexander & Tony Nesse and most of the people being looked at during the try-outs were for the new cruiserweight series. Triple H did an interview with, of all things, Channel Guide Magazine to promote the ten-week single elimination tournament. “I've always felt that there was this opportunity to do something special with cruiserweights,” Trips told the illustrious publication. He also noted that William Regal had been “out there is every corner of the globe trying to find not only ones who people are aware are the best, but others who nobody is aware of quite yet.” Good 'ol fun loving uncle Paul said he was, “open to working with other groups that are out there such as Progress, Evolve, Rev Pro and places like that” and noted that “it's an opportunity to be on a platform to be seen by millions around the world and become much bigger stars.
