Some thoughts on Roman Reigns
Anyone who reads my stuff here knows that I've talked a lot about Roman Reigns here, and that I'm a big fan of his. So with that, I'm typing this out as I'm still trying to grasp with his announcement that he's been battling leukemia for 11 years and now it's returned so he'll have … Continue reading Some thoughts on Roman Reigns
Venom and Pre-hating on things
As of the time I'm starting this post, I have not yet seen Venom, although I do plan on seeing it eventually. I originally wanted no part of it but now my curiosity has been piqued. My reason to avoid it was the same as most other people who weren't for it all this time, … Continue reading Venom and Pre-hating on things
More about the Crown Jewel
Looks like the disdain a lot of people are showing towards Vince McMahon over the Crown Jewel show that to date is still on schedule won't be dying down. Some media outlets have latched onto it, and the mere mention of it at Smackdown got boos from the crowd. And now in social media land … Continue reading More about the Crown Jewel
The Crown Jewel – what to do?
Should they have even done it? In hindsight, it sure doesn't look like it. It looks like they and a lot of other companies that were chomping at the bit to get in there and do business went for the 'we're letting women drive now!' snow job and didn't take into account the long history … Continue reading The Crown Jewel – what to do?

Was … Continue reading Reevaluating WrestleMania 34
Retro Recap – Hell in a Cell 2012
I figured that with Hell in a Cell on the way in a few days it was time for a Retro Recap of one of the previous offerings of this event. It's only been around as a standalone pay per view since 2009 I believe so there's some history but not like Summerslam or WrestleMania. … Continue reading Retro Recap – Hell in a Cell 2012
What comes after All In?
All In was an unqualified success this past weekend, and everyone involved should be proud of what they accomplished. I did not see the show myself, but from all accounts I got from people I trust it was a good show and worth the price of admission. More importantly the people who supported it are … Continue reading What comes after All In?
Woman’s (Wrestling) Work
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
A night at NOVA Pro Wrestling
My wrestling fan quest for 2018 continued this past weekend in Northern Virginia for a local indie NOVA Pro Wrestling. I got wind of them through social media and finally had a few free hours on a Saturday so I figured why not give them a shot. If you feel so inclined and there's one … Continue reading A night at NOVA Pro Wrestling
