OK, I'm a few months late here but I finally got around to checking out The Defenders. I was going to watch it when it first dropped but then I started seeing all the mixed reviews/sentiments about it, and coming off of Iron Fist which a lot of people hated I figured it could wait. … Continue reading TV Series Review – The Defenders

Retro Recap – Starrcade 1998
Starrcade 98 was a real crossroads moment of sorts for WCW. After a year of losing ground in the TV ratings war to the WWF but still making good money otherwise, they had to decide what direction to take their biggest star of the moment, Goldberg, and what to do with the remnants of the … Continue reading Retro Recap – Starrcade 1998
Movie Review – The Marine 4
So why on Earth would I watch the fourth installment of a straight to video movie series? And why on Earth am I actually reviewing it? Well, why not?

Retro Recap – Unforgiven 1998
Retro recap time! I got the urge to do an Attitude Era recap as way of pointing out just how not so awesome it could be at times.

Ratings? What ratings?
There isn't a week that goes by without Wrestling Twitter going on about RAW's ratings and how they're in the crapper. And every now and then even some personalities like Vince Russo or random bloggers (of which I am one, of course) chiming in. If you go by what they say, you'd be pretty concerned … Continue reading Ratings? What ratings?
No Mercy Thoughts
No Mercy is all done. Instead of a full recap I'm just gonna hit a few points. Women's Title Match I'm of two minds about this. On the one hand they only got nine and half minutes. On the other hand that was longer than the main event and as long as several other matches. … Continue reading No Mercy Thoughts
Baltimore Comic Con 2017
As has been the case for the last few years I hit up Baltimore Comic Con. Of the cons I go to, Baltimore is the best one for actual comic stuff. They have a lot of big name writers and artists there to sign books and for panel discussions, and it's easier to navigate the … Continue reading Baltimore Comic Con 2017
