WHAT DO YOU GET WITH A PWTORCH SUBSCRIPTION?

Thanks for your interest in becoming a PWTorch VIP Member! A Pro Wrestling Torch subscription includes more perks than any other membership of its kind in pro wrestling (with many flexible pricing options).

First, why are we different than the alternative sources of pro wrestling info? A letter from PWTorch editor Wade Keller explains - click here

Here are just a few of our features...

-Ad-free access to all content on PWTorch.com's Main Listing with easy-to-navigate VIP site layout with drop-menus and buttons to take you where you want to go quickly and easily. (You're on a page right now that shows our VIP layout!)

-Online access to the new PWTorch Newsletter (12-16 print pages) each week.

-Email reports on all major PPVs, Raws, and select other major TV shows, plus frequent staff Roundtable Reviews, Mojo Mitchell Commentaries, and more.

-Over 500 complete online editions of the PWTorch Newsletter (12-16 print pages) dating back to the early 1990s, with eight more added on average each month.

-Around 50 new VIP-exclusive audio shows with Torch editor Wade Keller and Torch staffers and contributors featuring post-PPV and post-TV show analysis, interviews, commentary, conversation, and more covering not just current events, but also unmatched historical perspective from Bruce Mitchell.

-Other special features in our VIP Archives and VIP Appendix including special theme-collections of articles and audio shows from our over 20 year history covering pro wrestling. This includes our Torch Talk Library.

More are added frequently! You can also catch up on some of the best columns ever written on wrestling including over 50 of Bruce Mitchell's feature-length columns dating from 1991 to 2008 and Pat McNeill's great humorous year-in-review columns. (Click on the VIP FEATURE JUMP MENU at the top of this page to see a drop-down list of all of the VIP-exclusive categories.)

-"Editor's Pick" lists: To make navigating through our massive archives easier, PWTorch editor Wade Keller has highlighted some of the best articles and audio updates from the over the last 20 years. His "Editor's Picks" are listed on the right sidebar of many VIP library pages and audio listing pages so you can hit some of the highlights of our 20 years of work right off of the bat when you first sign-up.

-Membership in our VIP Forum featuring interaction with PWTorch staff members on a regular basis and the most informed collection of wrestling fans you'll find anywhere talking about current wrestling events, answering each other's questions about the past, and reacting to the latest Torch articles and audio shows. There are also sections to talk about non-wrestling subjects such as sports, politics, and pop culture with people you get to know in the VIP Forum.

Also, more than half of our thousands of our subscribers opt to also receive the print copy of the PWTorch Newsletter each week for the convenience of receiving the "best of" content, including many VIP-exclusive articles and news items, in a 12-16 page print newsletter. You can get a "full subscription" including delivery of the paper copy for about 70 cents extra per week. Just choose one of the three options below that makes the most sense for you.

WHICH SUB OPTION IS BEST FOR YOU?

Note Regarding Pay Pal: Pay Pal - which is owned by EBay - is the most reliable, totally secure, and popular e-commerce provider. It conveniently accepts Master Card, Visa, Discover Card, and even payments through your checking or savings account. Even if you aren't a Pay Pal member already, you can order a subscription through the Pay Pal website by using your credit card and creating an account just for your Torch subscription order. Pay Pal makes signing up extremely user-friend. It takes about two minutes.

If you choose to order via Credit Card or choose to use your existing Pay Pal account, choose one of the following options. These orders do not auto-renew; you will have the choice to renew when your sub expires.

Important Notes: When submitting an order through Pay Pal, after clicking "Pay," be sure to click on the blue "Click Here to Continue" link in the lower right corner of the order confirmation page as that will ultimately direct you to the VIP Password Sign-Up Page. When you sign-up through Pay Pal, be sure the name on your Pay Pal account matches the name you use when signing up for your Torch VIP Password (or include a special note with your order explaining any differences):

100 ISSUES (includes 100 weeks of Torch VIP benefits)

Although Pay Pal is our "preferred" method of accepting payment, we welcome orders in several other ways.

If you wish to subscribe via email or postal mail or fax, you can send your entire Master Card or Visa credit card number, plus your expiration date and your full name as it appears on the credit card, along with the subscription term and price you are choosing (see above) via email or via postal mail to:

Pro Wrestling Torch
P.O. Box 211654
St. Paul, MN 55121

To order via CHECK or MONEY ORDER, use the address above and include your mailing address and the term of the subscription you are choosing (see above).

ALL ORDERS are processed Monday through Friday during normal business hours. The arrival of your first newsletter will be confirmation of your order, although online orders using Pay Pal will receive immediate verification along with information on how to sign up for a VIP password right away. We usually fulfill new orders the day we receive them, but please allow 7-14 days for delivery of first issue in the mail. Your VIP password should be activated within a few hours during normal business hours. If you subscribe online at night or on the weekend, your VIP password will usually be activated within hours, but occasionally it may take as long as until the end of the next business day.

WE WILL NOTIFY YOU BY EMAIL WHEN YOUR SUBSCRIPTION IS ABOUT TO EXPIRE. HOWEVER, IT'S BEST TO NOTE THE EXPIRATION NUMBER ABOVE YOUR NAME ON THE ADDRESS LABEL OF YOUR LATEST NEWSLETTER AND THEN RENEW AT LEAST THREE WEEKS BEFORE YOUR FINAL ISSUE IS MAILED TO ASSURE UNINTERRUPTED SERVICE.

NOTE: If for some reason you are not directed to the VIP password sign-up page after submitting your order through Pay Pal, please notify us via email. If you sign up via email or postal mail, you will be notified via email (if you include one with your order) how to sign up for your VIP password.

=======================================

VIP ESUB (NO PRINT COPY) SUBSCRIPTION SIGN-UP OPTIONS

You can become a PWTorch VIP member for just $7.50 per month (or a discount of just $5.55 per month on average when you pay for a year up front). Payment for a Torch VIP E-Sub Membership is made exclusively through the reliable, totally secure, and popular e-commerce website Pay Pal, which conveniently accepts Master Card, Visa, Discover Card, and even payments through your checking or savings account. (Note: To take advantage of our Torch VIP E-Sub Membership, you must do so through the Pay Pal links below.)

Even if you aren't a Pay Pal member already, you can order a subscription through the Pay Pal website by using your credit card and creating an account just for your Torch subscription. Pay Pal makes signing up extremely user-friend. It takes just a few minutes.

Now you can receive all of the great Torch VIP features, but receive a discount off of our usual rates by opting out of receiving the actual print copy of the Torch Newsletter in the mail. We will pass the savings from printing and postage expenses on to you!

A "Torch VIP E-Sub Membership" includes all of the benefits that Torch VIP/Newsletter subscribers receive, except you won't receive the actual print newsletter (but you can read it online in its entirety).

You can subscribe for just $7.50 per month, or save even more by subscribing for recurring payments every three months of $18.50, every six months for $35.50, or once a year for $66.50 (save $23.50 off our monthly plan rate).

You will be billed automatically by Pay Pay at the end of each membership term unless you indicate otherwise. Pay Pal makes it easy to stop future payments or change future payment options, such going shorter or longer-term with your payments. Just sign-in, click on subscriptions, and click cancel whenever you want service to stop or to change plans. Your Torch VIP password will be operational until the end of your paid term.

So for between $5.55 and $7.50 per month with no further obligation, you can become a PWTorch VIP E-Sub Member and enjoy the great online and email features thousands of PWTorch subscribers worldwide already enjoy, then do nothing and be renewed at the end of each period. You can also cancel anytime to stop the next payment. Your password will be active and valid through the full term you have paid. Please note that pro-rated refunds are not offered in mid-subscription.

IMPORTANT: If the name on your Pay Pal account will not match the name you'll be using to sign up for a VIP Password, please include next to your first name the name of the Pay Pal account name in the First Name line in parenthesis so that we can match the payment to the password application. So if your name is Josh Smith and the Pay Pal account name is David Smith, the first line of the VIP application form should say: "Josh (David Smith)."

Rates are the same for everyone anywhere in the world, so overseas PWTorch.com readers have the most affordable option ever to become a Torch VIP member. You must pay in U.S. funds.

CHOOSE ONE OF THE FOLLOWING FIVE OPTIONS:

Important Notes: When submitting an order through Pay Pal, after clicking "Pay," be sure to click on the blue "Click Here to Continue" link in the lower right corner of the order confirmation page as that will ultimately direct you to the VIP Password Sign-Up Page.

PLAN 1: $7.49 for one month, then $66.50 billed every 12 months
