It was late January of 2006 when Dan-e-o and I were on the phone, shootin' the shit talkin' wrestling (as we often do) when we finally said, half-jokingly...we should just start a site.
We felt like we had so many opinions, insights and were still fairly well connected within the business...hell it only made sense.
There are tons of other guys out there runnin' wrestling sites and radio shows who have never even been backstage at a show. Guys who literally don't 'know' the business. So why not us? Dan-e-o was itching for a reason to get back into wrestling after his stint as a wrestler/manager in the AWF, and I was being asked on a weekly basis by fans of my old wrestling radio show and the columns I wrote for Slam and TSN when I'd be back in the game.
On February 13th 2006, Tha O Show was born.
Our first couple months, the only traffic we had was ourselves and a few friends. We stuck to it though. We decided to build a MySpace page to increase our reach. Man, did that pay off!Through our MySpace friends, word of mouth and people finding us through various search engines we bounced all the way up to a mind blowing 5,000 visitors per day.
Now, we knew...we had something that people really liked.
Tha O Show has gone through many phases this past year, and 2007 will see even more growth. We're in stage one of the process of moving us from Blogger to our own dedicated servers. We're looking at even more merchandise for 2007 for all our O-sters and of course we plan to increase the amount of content you receive from us on a daily basis.
Expect MORE articles, MORE interviews, MORE radio shows, MORE prizes, MORE heat seeking and just MORE O's!
We would like to thank everyone who has contributed comments to our posts over the past year. 2006 was an awesome year for Tha O Show, but you ain't seen nothin' yet!
