Pro Wrestling Illustrated Presents REPORTS CARDS OF THE STARS (Buy it now at www.pwi-online.com) The Annual PWI “Report Cards” edition never fails to be one of our most controversial magazines of the year, and this year’s assessments are bound to elicit a strong reaction from many of the wrestlers profiled, as well as fans, promoters, and industry insiders. Each year, we select 50 of the top stars in the sport and attempt to objectively assess their achievement in five key categories: Goal Achievement, Marketability, Repertoire, Career Growth, and Overall Value. By awarding a letter grade in each of these categories, we are able to recognize and reward a wrestler’s accomplishments in one category while identifying areas in need of improvement in another. As a special bonus, this year’s edition highlights each of Ric Flair’s 35 years in the sport and issues a letter grade for each. While the “Nature Boy’s” career was certainly an A+ as a whole, it might surprise some to learn that he received three D’s along the way. *** The June Prowrestling.net podcast with a full rundown on WWE's One Night Stand PPV, thoughts on the big surprise finish, and Randy Orton's injury (25:40).

You may have browsed it at a book store just last week. You may be an avid reader of it today, anticipating its monthly arrival in your mailbox before it hits newsstands. The magazine is a pro wrestling institution. Pro Wrestling Illustrated is unaffiliated with any pro wrestling promotion, but covers them all. Some fans today subscribe because of the page after page of glossy color photos from today and yesterday, drawing from the richest photo library in existence. See what the upcoming top indy stars actually look like under the lights in a wrestling ring. See pictures of the next TNA Knockout star or WWE Diva with photos of the Shimmer athletes and other indy women in their developmental stages. Or browse candid out-of-ring shots of today's top national stars that don't make it into their official publications. Others read PWI for the articles, some of which, yes, play along with ongoing storylines and add new angles and dimensions to the suspension of disbelief, while other articles are historical in nature, such as the recent photo-rich "History of the Royal Rumble" with one page of facts and photos dedicated to each winner, describing how the victory affected their careers. There's the "Business Page" with an overview and analysis of key business figures over the previous month, including stock price fluctuations, TV ratings, PPV buys, and more. There are special issues such as the PWI 500 with a conversation-stirring ranking of wrestlers from this year's top five - John Cena, Edge, Mistico, Kurt Angle, and Undertaker - to the bottom five of Patrick Brink, Quicksilver, Brian Blade, Vincent Nothing, and Andre Heart. They even tell you a little about each and every one of them. Did you know that Andre Heart's finisher is the "Unsexier"? Now you know. The PWI Almanac is a desk reference book for any webmaster or wrestling fan interested in a well-organized chronicle and list of rosters, supershows, titles changes, and more.
