However, this time I won’t be reviewing a show I recorded off the television, this time I’ll be reviewing a DVD, the release of the K-1 World GP Final 2006, featuring the final eight man tournament to find the World GP Champion. The commentators for this one are Michael Schiavello and Mike Bernardo, so at least I won’t be getting constant comparisons between Pepsi and holy wine.

So will the age of Orton continue, or will a new (or old) age be ushered in? And is that a re-vamped version of Werewolves of London I hear? Hopefully these questions will be answered as WWE presents the tenth annual Backlash, which will also give me my first chance to see what Mike Adamle is really like, and to see if new Smackdown announcer Mick Foley has improved since the first One Night Stand.

In 2001, Julian Radbourne achieved his dream job, working in the professional wrestling business. As chief reporter and webmaster for the UK-based World Association of Wrestling, Julian wrote numerous articles and show reviews, travelling up and down the country until leaving the company in November 2005.

Now, for the first time, you can read all of Julian’s articles on the British wrestling business in one volume. From articles on stars such as “Rowdy” Ricky Knight, Sweet Saraya, Zebra Kid, “The Showstealer“ Alex Shane, Flash Barker, Jake “The Snake“ Roberts & the U.K. Pitbulls, through to “exclusive” columns for 1 Stop Wrestling & The Wrestling Channel. This book also includes other articles from around the British wrestling scene, including articles looking at the now-defunct Frontier Wrestling Alliance, and the controversial Global Wrestling Force.
 
"I have gone through this book three times already, reading it word for word and I can honestly say that Julian Radbourne has put together one heck of a book. I am just hoping he does not stop here." - Bill Taylor, A1 Wrestling Newsletter
 
"Definitely recommend it to anyone who is a fan of Julian, WAW or even British Wrestling as a whole." - Carl "Malachi" Ford, WAW wrestler
 
"It brought tears to my eyes when I read it. It opened my eyes up to new goals for me. It was such an honor to be mentioned the way I was in your book, THANK YOU. It is better than any title I have ever held." - Former WAW wrestler and current US indy star Marty "Detroit" Reed
 
"If Jonny Storm's whole hearted recommendation didn't turn you on to WAW, don't be surprised if Radbourne's book does the trick." - Richard Luck, Fighting Spirit Magazine

Although I have to admit that I had considered not watching the programme at all, given that the trailers had shown ten year old kids trying to beat the crap out of each.

With a house filled with wrestling memorabilia some would say that he is a wrestling fanatic, so when he got the chance to travel from his home in Canada to rural Virginia to meet his childhood wrestling hero, he jumped at the chance, and just happened to take a film crew along with him.
