Find her at @TheWitchMilitia on Twitter. I sat down to watch Night 1 of WrestleMania 37 this past Saturday … Continue reading Dreaming in Reality
Bianca’s win for Black Women

You can find her on Twitter at @TheWitchMilitia. I have been a wrestling fan for as long as I can remember. As a little girl in … Continue reading Bianca’s win for Black Women
State of the WWE Women’s Division
I got inspired to do this by Becky Lynch's suggestion that the name 'Men's' and 'Women's' be taken off of the top singles titles on each brand. Personally I found the whole 'remove the distinction' thing to be a solution in search of a problem, one that doesn't really fix any of the issues or … Continue reading State of the WWE Women’s Division

A Right to Complain?

TLC 2018 Thoughts

The Cruiserweight Title Match between Buddy Murphy and Cedric Alexander was good while the Guitar Match between Elias and Bobby Lashley did what it needed to do. The Cruiserweight division has been good most of the year and it's good to hear people chanting … Continue reading TLC 2018 Thoughts

Why Dave Meltzer's comments deserve the heat that he got for them We're still hashing out the mess that Dave Meltzer made of himself a few days ago on his podcast when he said (I'm paraphrasing here) that Peyton Royce looked more attractive when she was in NXT when she was 'lighter' (a reference to … Continue reading Woman’s (Wrestling) Work
