    Hey everyone. The info in this video is pretty outdated already ; the OHF donation amount is now over £2k!
    I will likely make the donation at the end of this month instead. Will keep you all posted.
    Thanks to everyone who bought a shirt, sent a superchat or just watched the videos.

    Hello, my name is Benny Gordon and I actually work for a few wrestling companies in Colorado as a referee. A little after I started training, I started watching this series in mid 2022 and have been watching ever since. From that period all the way until October of 2023, I used to ref every Thursday, so I would be listening to new episodes of Reliving The War on the way to the company I work at which would get me even more excited to ref. This series even helped me answer a fellow wrestler's question about Goldust's shattered dream finisher. I just wanted to say my thank yous and give you the flowers you deserve for such an entertaining and well put together series.

    Loved the live reaction to the David Flair match, easily a new segment I'd love to see when applicable... I still miss those Chinlocks though, nothing will replace them.

    I just wanna mark this spot, it and the match with Meng are two of the funniest segments of anything on RUclips let alone Wrestling Bios.
