I was really torn on what to give number four this week. The top 3 were secure, but I had a tag match featuring four guys I adore or Big E Langston vs. Seth Rollins in a match that was decent, but I’ve seen both do better. Big E Langston and Seth Rollins didn’t make [...]

Posted: May 26, 2012 by solacewinter in Wrestling Reviews and CommentaryUpon a late night/early morning discussion about NXT and the dropped story line of who the mystery attacker was, it brought up a few other dropped storylines. What happened to our Anonymous RAW GM? What happened to Tyson Kidd’s constant change in managers every week on Superstars? New Nexus disappeared because of the Summer of [...]

I’m going to get in so much trouble this week. 4. Zack Ryder vs. Heath Slater I like Ryder, I was a fan of his when I first saw him on ECW when he was still rocking the one pant leg on his attire. As he grew I enjoyed him more. Even as he became [...]

3/5 The old adage, “If it seems too good to be true, it probably is,” would have been the perfect lesson for the main character to repeat in his head through this book. What is it about a slick man promising a lot of money that people just jump at the chance of? Oh right, [...]

Once again NXT has forgone plot of any kind and become NXTStars instead of what we had grown to love, which was a show about stories and the wrestling ability. Chris swore up and down because Drew finally gets to be used in the store and it’s when it’s gone away from storylines, leaving WWE [...]

It’s that day again where we talk about the books we are reading this week. Let’s begin! I just started it today so I don’t have any input on the book itself so far, but it’s the sequel to Gualtieri’s earlier book, Bill the Vampire. In case you can’t guess by the first title, these [...]

(check out the companion piece from Kevin Hellions, Wish Drew Were Here) http://teamhellions.com/2011/09/27/wish-drew-were-here-what-happened-to-wwes-drew-mcintyre/ It’s that time again where we wonder who gets the Top 4 list. This month it’s Drew McIntyre. Despite popularity, and the fact that when he comes out during live events the crowd goes crazy, WWE is under utilizing this amazing talent. [...]

Well, of the WWE shows I watched this week this one was my favorite. Yes, even after a show that had Derrick on it and another that had Scott on it. FCW was my favorite. Here’s a bit of why: 4. Brad Maddox Goes a Little Crazy Sure, he definitely had a Dean Ambrose thing [...]

d Crap. 4. Tyson Kidd Screw WWE for not only putting Kidd in a sqaush match against Tensai, but for putting a squash match on Superstars. “Superstars is about the wrestling!” Oh wait, squash. Okay, so it was not an out and out squash. Kidd got in some offense. But still, it didn’t last long [...]

Left off of the list this week, and just barely, is Kassius Ohno’s promo where he calls Cesaro’s bag from last week a purse. This was Ohno’s best promo yet and solidifies my ongoing love for him as a man who grows every time I see him on the FCW screen. Also left on, for [...]
