History

Reynolds launched the site in April 2000, quickly developing a following among wrestling fans. Reynolds shut the site down in 2001, claiming the high cost of running the site was responsible. It returned the following year, albeit without the backlog of past inductions.

In August 2005, WrestleCrap introduced a podcast called WrestleCrap Radio. A podcast is a series of audio or Video digital-media files which is distributed over the Internet by syndicated Download Typically Reynolds and columnist Blade Braxton discuss their personal lives, make jokes that may or may not relate to current wrestling (or wrestling at all), pretend they are unpopular (claiming to only have 12-13 listeners) and rarely discuss news items from the wrestling industry. On occasion interviews with guests from within the wrestling industry are broadcast. In 2006, the site added several new writers and features.

There is also a book written by the creators of WrestleCrap with an introduction by John Tenta, with the same name (ISBN 1-55022-584-7). Reynolds also co-authored The Death of WCW, with wrestling journalist Bryan Alvarez.

Winners

The 2001 award was not revealed until 2003 due to WrestleCrap's closing in 2001.

Each year's Gooker award, with the exceptions of 2001 and 2002, was determined by a poll of site visitors. The 2001 and 2002 awards were chosen by Reynolds, since he felt there was no competition those years.
