Losing Little Tokyo, and other fond memories
I got a call a couple of months back from Greg Oliver. He told me that a long-lost friend was very sick. I was sorry to hear that. I told him to keep me posted. I know it sounds strange but I didn't feel right about calling my old road mate, Little Tokyo, because I hadn't talked to him in years and that is really too bad.

Guest column: Hitman was always SummerSlam's best performer
WrestleMania is without a doubt the WWE's premier event, where the company's top feuds, matches, and superstars take centre stage. However SummerSlam is just around the corner, and although it may be considered the little brother to the big event it has had its share of great moments.

Guest column: Remembering Macho Man, one month later
"Then we figured out we could park them in front of the TV. That's how I was raised, and I turned out TV." - Homer Simpson, parenting poster boy. There are some people in this world who you have to give credit for helping to raise you in a way your parents never could. Sure, Mom and Dad took care of the necessities, but with all they did do, sometimes it was the work of complete strangers that got us through our day, that made us believe in something besides everyday right and wrong values and gave us that fantastical look in our eyes that said "This is unbelievable, and I will never be the same again." In short, we had other heroes and they were the ones on TV. Just as Homer said, they had a part in raising us and molding us into the people we became. The "Macho Man" Randy Savage was one of those people.

Guest column: Why Cena gets booed
For the longest time, World Wrestling Entertainment has been trying to do everything in their power to get the majority of fans to cheer John Cena. They've tried giving tweaks to his on-screen persona, they've tried pointing out he's active in charitable campaigns (such as the Make A Wish foundation), they've had him routinely expressing support for the U.S. armed forces, and Cena has made an effort to improve his wrestling repertoire. Yet, all of these efforts have ended in failure and I believe the reason is because WWE has failed to examine the basic reason that he's getting booed.

I shared so many laughs with Mad Dog Rex
I just walked back from my kitchen. I went out to look on my fridge of the picture I have from a television taping at BCTV. The pic is of myself, Joe Cagle and the one and only Mad Dog Rex being interviewed by Ed Karl in front of the cameras under those hot television lights. But sadly, like many of the relationships in my life, the picture has been misplaced.
