So I took the Ultimate Wrestlemania Challenge that a few twitter friends were kicking around.

Why I don’t pine for the Attitude Era (UPDATED)

I made a few revisions and swapped out some names and dates to make it current. "It used to be better" That is the battle cry of many fans above … Continue reading Why I don’t pine for the Attitude Era (UPDATED)
