Nia Jaxx vs Alicia Fox - We've reached the point with Nia Jaxx where she needs to face competitive opponents, and she got one in Alicia Fox. Fox has never been one of the more highly regarded women on the roster, but she's gotten better over time and she did her job really here. She … Continue reading Clash of the Champions thoughts
Is KO Mania here to stay?
We're one week into the reign of Kevin Owens as the WWE Universal champion and the wheels are starting to turn in setting up the next few weeks of storylines.

WWE Battleground Recap

WWE Money in the Bank Thoughts and More
Well, in a matter of days things got really interesting in WWE land. We got our fastest successful Money in the Bank cash-in when Dean Ambrose caught Seth Rollins slipping and pinned him for the title just mere minutes after Seth won it from Roman Reigns and barely an hour after winning the briefcase himself. … Continue reading WWE Money in the Bank Thoughts and More
RAW – 5/23/2016
I don't normally do RAW recaps, because I don't usually watch it live and I don't have time to get proper recaps up in any kind of timely fashion.

Extreme Rules Recap
Dolph Ziggler vs Baron Corbin (No DQ) - This was on the pre-show. Decent match, although they didn't use the no-DQ stipulation to the fullest. Corbin should be moving on to some other opponent now. As for Ziggler....no idea. I imagine he'll get into some program with someone that will make for good house show … Continue reading Extreme Rules Recap

WWE Payback Recap
Pre-Show: Dolph Ziggler vs Baron Corbin Surprising finish here. I think everyone had Ziggler doing the honors and jobbing, and yet......he won with a rollup. Match was ok, but felt a little short as I watched it live. I honestly don't know where this leaves Corbin. He better get a rematch soon to get a … Continue reading WWE Payback Recap
WrestleMania 32 Recap
OK, better late than never here's my WrestleMania report. The show was pretty long and had 11 actual matches (I'm not counting the Rock's segment), more than we've had in a while. As expected Roman Reigns walked out as the champion, much to the chagrin of a lot of people. The show also saw the … Continue reading WrestleMania 32 Recap

Now I missed most of the separate roster days but thanks to wikipedia and the WWE Network (still only $9.99!!) I've managed … Continue reading New Old WWE ideas for 2016
