Well who knew that this whole thing with Dean Ambrose/Jon Moxley would turn out like this? In hindsight when it was announced he wasn't re-signing then you had to figure that he wasn't coming back, but then the send off he got made it at least look like it would be a temporary thing. Even … Continue reading On Jon Moxley and Creative Freedom
Creative Freedom isn’t an Entitlement
This one is coming on the heels of John Moxley (or as you may know him, Dean Ambrose) releasing a video that is essentially proclaiming his freedom from WWE. One of the reasons, if not the main reason, Dean/John did not renew his contract is that he didn't like the roles he was given by … Continue reading Creative Freedom isn’t an Entitlement
Believing in the Shield
Unless something changes, we're heading into the home stretch for what is in my opinion the best faction I've ever seen with the exception of the first run of the Four Horsemen. When they first debuted if you'd told me that I would be making that statement today I would have blown you off. But … Continue reading Believing in the Shield
No More Dean Ambrose?
Man, it's been a rough last few months if you're a fan of the Shield, let alone a member. First Roman Reigns had to leave to go battle leukemia and now it appears that Dean Ambrose may be done, too. He almost died while going through surgery and recovery for his injury earlier this year, … Continue reading No More Dean Ambrose?
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.

Before I get into the show a few things: The 'Delete!' chants were huge, so much that my seven year old son picked it up real … Continue reading Extreme Rules 2017 Recap
Superstar Shake Up – One Week Later
There were a lot of instant reactions to the Superstar Shake Up last week. I figured it would be best to wait a week and see how it shakes out first, so here's what I think so far: RAW I'm fine with the middle and bottom rows. Alexa Bliss has already shaken up the women's … Continue reading Superstar Shake Up – One Week Later
WWE Fairfax 2017
I hit the Road to WrestleMania tour last night in Fairfax. Great show start to finish. Here's what went down. Opener: Heath Slater, Rhyno, and Mojo Rawley vs Curt Hawkins and Breezango Nice 'He's got kids!' chant going for Slater whenever he was in the ring. Mojo is a local guy and always gets a … Continue reading WWE Fairfax 2017
Elimination Chamber 2017 Thoughts
The night was about two people in particular: Bray Wyatt and Naomi, two people who have worked their asses off for five plus years to overcome bad first gimmicks and become champions. Their victories are a beacon of hope for everyone toiling away in developmental, or at the bottom of the main roster or even … Continue reading Elimination Chamber 2017 Thoughts
