Welp, judging by the reviews this year's Survivor Series was not one for the history books. Was it bad? I don't think so. Go back to the lean years of the mid 90s or pre-Brand Split 2010s if you want to see bad shows, and there are plenty of editions that are only remembered for … Continue reading How would I Fix It?

Review – Iv3rson
Documentaries in this day and age, especially the ones done with full cooperation and involvement of the subject, can be way too whitewashed to be of any value. Not that we necessarily want to know every bad thing someone has said or done but when serious transgressions that may have lead to arrests or worse … Continue reading Review – Iv3rson

If you … Continue reading Blue Brand Blues
I believe in Hangman Page

That continued on for the next couple of years but then in 2016 the … Continue reading WWE Releases
WrestleMania 41 Thoughts
NIGHT ONE THE GOOD Jey vs Gunther Good opener, had much more of an old school NWA match kind of feel to me. Which was a good thing. The big knock on Jey Uso's ring work is that he spams a handful of moves all the time. This match moving like it did pretty much … Continue reading WrestleMania 41 Thoughts
