CYBERSLAM,
REVISITED:
Here it is, the famous/infamous remains of Cyberslam. Some
could call it a “fake” Cyberslam, but it’s more real than what you’d get at the
old Scoopscentral site. Looks a lot like the original thing. Some time I may go
in and clean up or add on a few things too. But I wouldn’t bet on it.
BAGMAN’S PROTOTYPE’S AUJAM’S BOARD OF
DOOM
(The Legendary Board of Doom, now run by Aujam. Myself and
Holy Evil have Minority Owner Roles)
For the years upon years that I have had this site, I never
put a link to the BoD up, going back to the old Insidetheweb BoD. Part of the reason
was that everyone’s site linked to the BoD, and chances are anyone at my site
would already know where it is. But now that I think about it, most of those
sites are gone now… or have links to an old address. So, in the off chance that
some old-timer types something like “Cslam” or “Cyberslam” or “Board of Doom”
into a search engine and gets this site as a hit… they can see that the good
ol’ BoD is still around with a lot of old names still calling each other
bitches.
Archived BoD: It’s always interesting to take a
trip down memory lane. Here are a few glimpses of what Archive.Org has saved.
Just a snapshot of a couple of days its history.

<there is another set of BoD messages from Feb 4, 2001,
but I can’t seem to access an archived main board… just individual posts and
their replies. If anyone wants to try and help me find the main message board
in the archives, it would be much appreciated. This is from the time that the
BoD was hosted by Wrassle.net, so you’d have to check in archive.org’s pages
for Wrassle>
Old Cslam Sites:
These websites have had some longevity and have stuck around
after all this time. Some sites are worthy of note, and some pretty much have
nothing of interest at all (but even those I’ve included just to be complete).
Let’s hope that these links don’t go dead.
CNN (Cyberslam News Network)
http://www.oocities.org/hammerlock_news/
Yes, this page is still up! Can you believe it? I can’t
either. From the times when Cyberslam was so popular that it spawned off
bunches of unofficial news sites that a lot of people actually read! Wrassle
has never been able to achieve this.
CRF: http://thecrf.tripod.com/ and
The work of Masterzoma.
CEW: http://www.angelfire.com/wi/mythofcslam/enter.html
What was their OOC board, I think, still survives as the
primary Ring Wars OOC chat place. Not that I give a shit about ring wars.
CFL: http://www.oocities.org/Colosseum/Park/7072/
Not much here at Roman’s CFL site. But it’s interesting to
look at an old card for a minute, right? Yeah, I know. Not really.
AWO / iAWO: http://www.angelfire.com/wrestling3/relic14k/
and
http://www.oocities.org/Colosseum/Lodge/9136/
I don’t really know anything about the AWO other than
Pestilence used to be a commish there.
ITFA: http://www.oocities.org/itfacslam/
Guerilla TV: http://www.oocities.org/rehtiw22/
To be honest, I just grabbed this link from Prototype’s site.
Apparently it’s not complete, but good enough, eh? Proto apparently has a Cage
of Rage archive site too, but the link to it doesn’t work for me. Get your shit
together, Proto!
Bobbybob’s Allstars: http://www.oocities.org/bobbybobs_allstars/Allstars.html
BB’s Allstars made a comeback in Wrassle.Net, so some of the
content is related to Wrassle. But there are still old Cyberslam pages at the
site too, such as Bios for Fleshbasher, Canadian Kid, Killall and others. Nice!
High Court: http://www.oocities.org/Colosseum/Court/9517/index.html
A site for Genocide’s old stable. Well, I don’t know if Geno
made the stable… but that is sure as hell who I associate with it.
Barefoot Bar & Grill: http://www.oocities.org/Colosseum/Ring/6748/grill.html
Apparently this is the place that the Assassin’s Guild used
to hang out. It’s pretty worthless now that the message board it used to have
is gone. However it was pretty worthless back then as well… because, you know,
it was the place where the Assassin’s Guild hung out.
Widowmaker’s Funeral:
I think this stuff may also be at Chico’s Flash Video Site (also
linked through my flash video page). But I’m vaguely recall the html doesn’t work
on that site for some reason. Hopefully it works with these.

Web Archive’s Dead Cslam Sites:
These are all that is left of a few famous and memorable
pages that were influential and memorable in Cslam’s history but are no longer
there. I don’t include these pages with the rest above because they are
incomplete. Some of the links within the pages don’t work, some do. Some of the
pictures load, some don’t. You know how it goes.
CSPN: http://web.archive.org/web/20000306034916/http://oocities.com/Baja/Mesa/5455/index.html
CSPN2000: http://web.archive.org/web/20030501161238/http://mir.spaceports.com/~cspn2000/
Arguably the best of the CSlam news sites ever made and
successor to CSPN. The un-updated page stuck around in limbo for quite a while
after CSlam closed down, though the page did become loaded with tons and tons
of pop-up ads. But now it ain’t there no more.
CCW: http://web.archive.org/web/20000615000555/ccw.cyberslam.com/
CBF: http://web.archive.org/web/20030502201028/www.oocities.org/Colosseum/Ring/3669/index.html
I was in the CBF for a short time, and remember this being
a great site. All behold the place where huge names like Al Bradd, Chevalier
and Satanspimp used to come in CSlam’s heyday.
Alternative CRF Site: http://web.archive.org/web/20000129201603/www.oocities.org/TimesSquare/Ring/9523/index.html
Bagman’s News & Views: http://web.archive.org/web/20021211200405/http://www.angelfire.com/ca2/zipomatic/news.html
Blood Brothers: http://web.archive.org/web/20010728013905/www.oocities.org/Colosseum/Loge/3133/
The Revolution: http://web.archive.org/web/20000312011320/members.tripod.com/cslam_revolution/index.html
Holcombe “Wrestling Federation”: http://web.archive.org/web/20010428085304/http://comp.uark.edu/~holcombe/
Okay, I know. This isn’t a Cyberslam site at all. But
let’s face it… not placing it here would mean I missed a chance to insult
Mightymark. Doesn’t look like too much is left here though.
Got
another old CSlam site you think should go here? Send an email to my_mandingo@hotmail.com
