There's so much in this one. From Hogan's heel turn at Bash at the Beach to Steve Austin's unexpected star making performance at King Of The Ring, Roddy Piper jumping ship and Bret Hart signing a TWENTY YEAR deal with the WWF. So much happened in the second half of 1996 and in this you can read all the PS issues in full as Fin Martin chronicles one of the most important periods in wrestling history.

The Power Slam Yearbook 1995 Part Two is now available. It includes Issues 13-18 of Power Slam — originally published between July and December 1995 — and a new four-page introduction written in September 2024 that delves deep into the events of June-December 1995 in pro wrestling which was a strange and frequently irritating time to follow the industry: https://insidetheropesmagazine.com/products/power-slam-yearbook-1995-part-2

Triple H was the cover star of Issue 207 of Power Slam back in October 2011. He had beaten CM Punk at Night Of Champions the previous month in their big one on one encounter.

What did you think at the time of The Game defeating Punk when most people thought Punk should have went over? Did it matter? Should Hunter have done the job?

Thirty years ago this month, Hulk Hogan was the cover star and interview in Issue 2 of Power Slam in September 1994.

PS editor Findlay Martin remarked to Kenny McIntosh on their Power Slam Overrun podcast earlier this year that in the chat for Issue 2, Hogan seemed to have his wits about him and was fairly honest and candid. Hogan would go on to become a compulsive liar in modern day interviews. What’s your favourite Hogan lie from his media interviews?

Twenty fours years ago this month, in the September 2000 issue of Power Slam, Steve Ciaccirelli penned the “Bigger Than Wrestling?” article on The Rock.

Did you think Rock would become the Hollywood juggernaut he ended up being when he was in WWF in 2000?
