Wrestletalk Magazine  |  Issue 137
In this month's edition, we have feature-length articles on:
- The Cruiserweight Classic, as 20 years after years after the cruiserweights hit Nitro, what lessons can WWE learn about booking lighter talent?
- Bobby Lashley, as FSM assesses how he has become a big hit both as an MMA fighter, and the TNA World heavyweight champion.
- WWE 2K17, as FSM covers everything you need to know about this year’s additions to the videogame, like crowd fighting, backstage brawls, gameplay tweaks and Goldberg.
- The Shoot Interview, as FSM explores the man, the myth, and the legend that is Sean Oliver, and his incredible work with Kayfabe Commentaries.
- Michael Bisping, who has captained the UFC’s European expansion and brought gold back to Great Britain. FSM puts to paper the story of “The Count”.
- The F.A Cup Final Day tradition, as FSM relives the history of the shows, and analyses just how the programmes faired on television against the football.
- Speaking of World of Sport, in this month’s Training Ground interview, FSM talks to UK veteran Frankie Sloan, who’s seen and done it all in the sport.
All of this, plus our usual news, PPV and TV reports, and DVD and videogame reviews. This month's issue also includes Rob Naylor's memories of the impression that pro wrestling theme songs left on him; in the wake of the Brock Lesnar vs. Randy Orton match at SummerSlam, Jim Cornette lets rip on the lunacy of WWE working its own wrestlers; and Nick “Magnus” Aldis explains how his wrestling career has changed as a father, as it now surely also will for Davey Richards and Angelina Love, to name but two grapplers.
