The Tag Rope: Year One

We believe in long-form, thought provoking articles, captivating photography and original artwork for the intelligent professional wrestling fan who demands more from the content that they consume. For the last year, we have tried to redefine what a professional wrestling magazine can be, and we’ll continue to do so moving forward.

If this is your first time checking out The Tag Rope, we sincerely hope you enjoy the read. Inside this ebook, you’ll find a collection of articles from the first four issues of The Tag Rope, ranging from a recollection of what it was like to be in the Mercedes-Benz Superdome the night the Streak was broken to a retrospective of the life and times of Antonio Inoki.

For existing readers of The Tag Rope, there's still plenty of treats inside this ebook, including remastered articles with new artwork and an exclusive article from The Tag Rope's Iron Man, Bill Thompson.
