When WWE announced it's historic deal with Netflix, in 2024, it also spelled the end for the 'WWE Network'.  The network wasn't just home to classic WWE/F content but it was also home to classic WCW content (as well as other promotions such as ECW) which WWF/E purchased in 2001.  Fans of WCW content were obviously disappointed about the news and, presumably, WWE heard them!!!  WWE have now launched an official WCW YouTube channel that'll act as a sister channel to the, absolutely incredible, 'WWE Vault'!!!  The channel will see full WCW matches, Pay-Per-View's and episodes of 'Nitro' and 'Thunder' uploaded!!!  This is great news for fans of WCW and clearly shows that the company still has a strong fan base even two decades after it closed its doors!!!  Check out, and subscribe, to the channel here -  WCW on YouTube

From 1998 to 1999 WWE (back then WWF) had a television show called 'Super Astros' that featured a mix of established luchadors and, underutilised, WWF stars (mostly from the companies 'Light Heavyweight' division) that was aimed at the promotions Latin American audience!!!  The show is, unfortunately, a forgotten footnote in the promotions history (evidenced by its extremely short run) but looking back at the talent showcased it's a real shame that the programme is so overlooked especially with how highly WWE regards luchadors nowadays!!!  R.A.W Media have put together a playlist of some of the shows best matches in the hopes that it might highlight the fact that WWF/E had the opportunity to showcase the 'Lucha Libre' style way before names like Rey Mysterio or Penta came along!!!  Check out the playlist here -  The Best Of WWF 'Super Astros' (Playlist)

What's good everybody and welcome back to the latest edition of 'Chucky's Report'!!! This time around I'm featuring a legend of the Jersey, Channel Islands, Hip-Hop scene Bean Lebouc (formally known as B-Eazy).  Whether he's spitting fire verses or producing masterpieces with his instrumentals he will always deliver with top notch artistry.  I have been a fan of his for over a decade now watching his journey from an artist to a producer to a blogger and so much more. I've also been lucky enough to call him a friend.  He has given me loads of opportunities to work alongside him (especially here on R.A.W Media) and helped me get out of some of my darkest moments in life.  I know we will continue working together, as we march forward, and hopefully one day we will have the opportunity to work on some music together.  A little known fact is that after B-Eazy laid down the mic, after his final project 'FLOWERS' in 2021, I included a bouquet of...

Like Dirty did with Souls Of Mischief and Mos Def previously Das EFX sound right at home here matching the vibe perfectly!!! Definitely a project for both Hip-Hop and DnB heads to enjoy!!!
