While boasting fans in several countries from across the globe, today, professional wrestling maintains a lasting presence in five territories - USA, Canada, United Kingdom, Japan and Mexico. ‘Culturally embedded spectacle’ is the unique conceptual framework developed for this paper to explain the longevity of professional wrestling in these five locations and includes the following factors: a continuous history of professional wrestling, national television exposure during the Old School era highlighting larger-than-life characters playing the face, an extensive group of independent professional wrestling federations and commemorative cultural experiences for young and old fans. 2 Granted, there may be other aspects not included here.

  • Cubed Circle Newsletter 179 – Wrestlemania Weekend 2015
    Cubed Circle Newsletter 179 – WrestleMania Weekend 2015 We didn't have an issue last week due to WrestleMania Weekend, and our preparation for various events. However, we are back this week for what will be, behind the yearbook, most likely our biggest issue of the year covering not only WrestleMania 31, but also all the WWN Live shows (excluding Kaiju), the Hall of Fame, last week's RAW and NXT, Balor/Owens, the post-Mania RAW, terrific ratings, and more! It was the happiest time of the year – WrestleMania Weekend. – Ryan Clingman, Cubed Circle Newsletter Editor WrestleMania 31: A Classic Show? Not Really. Ryan Clingman. It seems strangely apropos that the most important piece of build on this year's Road to WrestleMania took place not in a medium governed by the pens of creative, or even exclusively by the whims of Vince McMahon, but rather through the contract negotiations between the aforementioned VKM and the WWE World Heavyweight Champion Brock Lesnar. With Mania excitement as low as it has been in years, perhaps decades the WrestleMania 31 outlook was far from positive – a reality further compounded by what seemed to be the inevitable departure of Brock Lesnar for a second run with the UFC. Whilst Creative was not remedied during the final week's build, nor may it be recovering a week on from the year's biggest show, last week's breaking news of Lesnar re-signing with the company, soon heated, at least somewhat, a build that had been fast approaching absolute zero. No longer, as in WrestleManias over the past five years, was this show's closing image predictable – the opposite was the case, in fact, as many a possibility involving Lesnar, the heel who was over like a God, Reigns, who was hated by the majority, and Seth Rollins, the Money in the Bank briefcase holder with respect from the hardcore fanbase – were possible.

  • Cubed Circle Newsletter
    Cubed Circle Newsletter In some ways this week was a slow news week, there were no big puro shows to cover or pay-per-views, on the other hand the RAW rating was telling, but we didn’t get the segment by segment ratings due to Thanksgiving. Still we have a pretty decent sized newsletter for you this week, with a lot of different content including: Jonathan Snowden’s book ‘Shooters: The Toughest Men in Professional Wrestling’, RAW, The hours for the show, Impact, Cornette in brief, a New Japan iPPV preview and Ben Carass covers SmackDown and NXT. There is also an ongoing series on the front page covering some of the matches that I have overlooked over the past year, which I hope some people will enjoy. For those that haven’t seen it yet, the front page is now updated everyday, so if that is something that interests you check it out at cubedcirclewrestling.com – if you wondering about the 2002 Triple Crown match between Tenryu and Mutoh today is your lucky day. With that being said, I hope you enjoy this week’s newsletter. - Ryan Clingman, Cubed Circle Newsletter Editor Shooters: The Toughest Men in Professional Wrestling By Jonathan Snowden Review When I first picked up Jonathan Snowden’s Shooters off Amazon I was expecting a fun read, but little else.
