    I'm just wondering is this available in Ireland because I haven't seen it anywhere yet? Thanks.

    It did get a UK release, ISBN number 075664190X

    I haven't stumbled across it myself in retail shops, but then i haven't been looking.
    It can be gotten online either way, so it's not a complete rarity just yet. :)

    Worst case scenario, give that ISBN number to your local book shop and see if they can order it in for you.

    Good luck.

    Many moons ago I sat around contemplating how amazingly insightful a WWE Encyclopedia would be. It would solve a long-running argument with a friend as to what a "Titantron" actually is.

    For some reason, i doubt such terms even get included in the book.


    Has anyone gotten it? Is it any good? Anyone recommend it? Or recommend to avoid it? :)

    Given that anyone with a decent internet connection with a google search can find anything they'd want about the company. It then renders it a picture book of sorts.

    Personally, I wouldn't bother myself.

    I spotted it in Waterstones in Cork a few months back, can't remember exactly how much it was but it was around 30 euro, I think.

    Fair point, but it could be good for when you're moving around and out and about without an internet connection.


    Speaking of books.. anyone have any idea why WWE don't do e-Books? You'd think they'd be a big thing now, what with SONY's virtual book reader thingymabob they made.

    I seen it in HMV Grafton Street few weeks ago. Had a flick through it. It's pretty thorough, full of info. Think it was only €20. Goody buy. The only reason I didn't get it is cos I'm broke and have other, better things to spend money on tbh.

    They can, but they have to be ones bought from the App Store in iTunes. AFAIK, there aren't a whole lot of newer books on it yet, mostly classics. I haven't checked it in ages though, so it may have changed.

    It's definitely in most larger Easons, especially in Dublin
