VIP 2006 BACK ISSUE – Pro Wrestling Torch #923 (July 15, 2006): PWTorch scapegoated in ECW book by Heyman, Keller on Flair-Foley, Mitchell Feature on the return of ECW, McMahon on the Passion of the Showstopper


SPOTLIGHTED PODCAST ALERT (YOUR ARTICLE BEGINS A FEW INCHES DOWN)...

SUMMARY of #923 cover-dated July 15, 2006: This issue includes an expanded, in-depth cover story – one of our longest ever – detailing the truth behind the spin in WWE’s “The Rise and Fall of ECW” book, most specifically Paul Heyman’s false claims, mistaken dates, and unfair scapegoating for a monumental incident nearly ten years ago. PWTorch finally sets the record straight with a comprehensive comparison of Heyman’s statements ten years ago versus today and a detailed look at the p.r. games that ultimately backfired at almost every turn… Plus, Bruce Mitchell’s in-depth feature column on the Revival of ECW, along with commentary on how he was portrayed in the ECW book… Pat McNeill looks at “The Passion of the Showstopper” and his desire to distance himself from the DX gimmick… Wade Keller’s in-depth feature column looks at Ric Flair’s and Mick Foley’s shoot comments aimed at each other, and why they are mostly ironic and revealing, with a historical comparison that shows both are a lot more alike than they’d ever want to admit… Wade Keller’s End Notes looks at the upcoming fall season of pro wrestling, which may be the busiest of all time… Plus WWE Newswire, TNA Newswire, ROH Newswire, ETC. Newswire, the weekly Quotebook, the 1996 Backtrack, the weekly schedule, Raw TV Reax, and more…
