Slam! Wrestling

Founded by Greg Oliver and John Powell, SLAM! Wrestling
(http://slam.canoe.ca/Slam/Wrestling/home.html) changed the way North
America's true favorite pastime was presented on the web. With the backing of
Sun Media and Canoe, SLAM! Wrestling brought pure journalism to the muddy
waters of the pro wrestling media coverage. Never in the Internet Age had the
squared circle been viewed with a keen eye by reporters and analysts who broke
down the philosophy of wrestling and feted its legends, while also not being
afraid to show the very human side of the locker rooms that are hidden from
the plain eye inside the world's biggest arenas. SLAM! Wrestling takes readers
on a journey through SLAM! Wrestling's first dozen years and the often all-too
real world of professional wrestling. From WWE to the independent leagues that
dot North America's landscape, SLAM! Wrestling gives the unique view of the
reporter's eye as history unfolds, including interviews with "Stone Cold"
Steve Austin, John Cena, "The Rock" Dwayne Johnson, Trish Stratus and many
others. Plus, for the first time ever, SLAM! Wrestling's writers take you
behind the scenes and share their insights into what made the site stand out
as one of the most respected sources for information in all of the Internet
wrestling community. From the celebration of WrestleMania XVIII in Toronto, to
the tragic death of Owen Hart and many others, SLAM! Wrestling has covered it
all and now brings the history of the mat wars straight to your bookshelf.
