But why they probably won't (If you'd rather listen than read I talked about this on my Rob the Genius podcast on Anchor, Spotify, and Apple podcasts). As of right now, WWE and AEW are still going to be putting on TV shows. They both taped a good bit of stuff in March and early … Continue reading Time to shut it down
Retro Recap – Clash of the Champions 8
This recap is brought to you by the quarantine! Yeah, I was looking for something I hadn't watched in a while and I settled on this one. I was a big NWA fan back in the day so I saw this when it happened, but I haven't watched it in a long time. The Clash … Continue reading Retro Recap – Clash of the Champions 8
What about Chris Benoit?
The past week or so has seen a resurgence in mentions of the name Chris Benoit, obviously set off by the first two episodes of the Dark Side of the Ring series on Vice TV. And with it the weird discussion about how he should be handled by us and the WWE given how he … Continue reading What about Chris Benoit?
Roman’s Next
I've mostly stayed on the sidelines when it came to talking about Roman Reigns since he came back, mainly because I was tired. I'd unloaded damn near every thought I had, found as much factual information to back up my opinions, and I think I covered every angle there was on the man's career. So … Continue reading Roman’s Next
Retro Recap – WrestleMania 6
It's been a while since I've done one of these, and with 'Mania being around the corner I figured I'd get back on the old bicycle. WrestleMania 6 was the first one that I watched live, on something called closed circuit TV. Pay per view was alive and well but the WWF decided to show … Continue reading Retro Recap – WrestleMania 6
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
The NY 50
This is a fun little exercise that I've partaken in for the second year in a row. The NY 50 is a top 50 tanking of WWE wrestlers across brands (Raw, Smackdown, NXT, 205 Live) based on ring work. All of us who are participating submit our own list and then it gets compiled into … Continue reading The NY 50
WWE Live Fall Tour 2019 Results
A month ago the WWE Live Tour was in town so I checked it out. The Summer show I went to was a RAW show and this one was for Smackdown so we get a different cast of characters this time. Smackdown Tag Team Title Match: New Day - Big and Kofi (c) vs The … Continue reading WWE Live Fall Tour 2019 Results
What about ACH?
It's been over a month now, and everything is still changing rapidly even as I type this out (I started this back when he first showed us the T-shirt design). My own opinion has been fluid and everchanging as well so if you're looking for me to have some definitive assessment........that's just not happening, and … Continue reading What about ACH?
Time to Go
Jim Cornette absolutely stepped in it this week when he said during the most recent episode of NWA Power that Trevor Murdoch was so tough he could ride through Ethiopia with a bucket of fried chicken..........yeahhhhh, that's no good. It went over about as well as you may think it did, so it's no shocker … Continue reading Time to Go
