WrestleMania 9 was at a time of major flux for the WWF and the wrestling business, and not in a good way. If anything it was a sign of just how quickly things can change. When WrestleMania 8 ended the WWF roster was the most loaded it had ever been, but now.....yikes. Ric Flair, Ultimate … Continue reading Retro Recap – WrestleMania 9
Awesome Con 2018
As always I hit up Awesome Con every year when they come to DC, buy some stuff, and take some cosplay pictures. I did not get a chance to stop by Friday and meet New Day, but I did meet Christian this year. He's really cool and took a picture with me and my son. … Continue reading Awesome Con 2018
WWE Road to WrestleMania 2018
As was the case last year, the Road to WrestleMania tour came through locally here so I took in the show. With two weeks left until the biggest show of the year I didn't expect anything earth shattering but went in hoping for a good, entertaining show which we did indeed get. I've seen most … Continue reading WWE Road to WrestleMania 2018
A Night at Maryland Championship Wrestling
This past weekend I had the opportunity to take in an indie wrestling show for the first time ever. Indie wrestling is at an all time high right now, and for all intents and purposes has replaced the old territory system as a place for guys and gals to come and go from place to … Continue reading A Night at Maryland Championship Wrestling
Retro Recap – WrestleMania 12
WrestleMania 12 took place a few months before Hulk Hogan and WCW would shake up the wrestling business with the heel turn heard around the world. It was a real interesting time in that some major roster changes were about to take place that would have totally spoiled if they were to happen today. Scott … Continue reading Retro Recap – WrestleMania 12
Fan Wars: Roman Reigns vs Daniel Bryan
Daniel Bryan's clearance to wrestle and imminent return to the ring has had a very shall we say interesting side effect. We're not even 24 hours in and there is a civil war of sorts brewing between his most loyal fans and those of the man who has been the number one guy in the … Continue reading Fan Wars: Roman Reigns vs Daniel Bryan
Daniel Bryan’s back! Now what?
Well......he's back! The official word came down from WWE today that Daniel Bryan is indeed cleared to wrestle again. So of course that means he's back for WrestleMania and beyond. I'm guessing that he'll work some kind of limited schedule, more frequently than Brock Lesnar does but not out on the road several nights a … Continue reading Daniel Bryan’s back! Now what?
Roman’s Main Events
The weeping and gnashing of teeth over Roman Reigns winning the Elimination Chamber match and getting a fourth straight WrestleMania main event is in full effect now. But rather that fight people on the internet over it, I have a simple question. Which WrestleMania main event would you have taken Roman out of? I'm running … Continue reading Roman’s Main Events
Movie Review – Black Panther
Black Panther is the latest entry in the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU), and the last movie before Infinity War comes out this May. But like Wonder Woman last year it bears a special significance above and beyond just being a cool movie we wanted to see. It's not the first superhero movie with a Black … Continue reading Movie Review – Black Panther
Retro Recap – WrestleMania 2000
WrestleMania 2000 took place at kind of the midpoint of the Attitude Era in that the in ring action would get demonstrably better after this show than it had been before, thanks to an infusion of talent from WCW (Chris Jericho, Chris Benoit, Dean Malenko, Eddie Guererro, Perry Saturn) and their own ranks (Kurt Angle, … Continue reading Retro Recap – WrestleMania 2000
