Welcome back to our Bret Hart ratings! This week it is just me for a go-around of some of the modern talent in the wrestling world in the post-WrestleMania landscape of spring 2021. Also, uh, only one of the superstars rated today was on WrestleMania. Oops! I'm not good at synergy. Let's get right into... Continue Reading →
Hey, I am getting to watch WrestleMania live tonight. No more Secret Hitler or pizza with friends. I get to watch pro wrestling in my basement like a winner! After a night one that started weak (by me; I get it, though. You're all all-in on Bobby Lashley) but finished incredibly strong (again, that Belair/Banks... Continue Reading →
First of all, this review is going to be up a little bit later than I would prefer. I'm usually good to get my reviews on these shows up within thirty to forty-five minutes of said show's conclusion. But for WrestleMania night one... I will have been hours behind. My apologies! My wife had the... Continue Reading →
WrestleMania is rad. Whether you like professional wrestling or not, there's still a national mystique around WrestleMania. It's wrestling's Superbowl, it's Academy Awards. The biggest night of the wrestling calendar. And while the general wrestling viewing audience is comparatively small nowadays, there is still a curiosity about 'Mania every year. Because so many of us... Continue Reading →
Remember when there was Fastlane AND Roadblock? When WWE was really god damn intent on selling the very literal "Road" to WrestleMania? They should have kept that theme up. They could have added a few more of these nothing shows leading into April! WWE Traffic Jam! WWE Fines Doubled Zone! WWE Last Reststop For 62... Continue Reading →
I didn't watch Raw last night, so I don't have much to say on it this week. Last week's episode was ROUGH, and while I guess I'm happy for Lashley to "finally" get the big world title he always felt on the cusp of, I never really cared for the guy. He doesn't do anything... Continue Reading →
It's the Elimination Chamber! Or, as my Mac might prefer, the Slimination Chamber. It's the most wonderful time of the [WWE] year, guys! We had the Rumble, WrestleMania is imminent, and in between, we get one of WWE's best gimmick pay-per-views (with only Money In The Bank challenging its second-place-to-the-Rumble status), the Elimination Chamber! (And,... Continue Reading →
Hey, there was no spoopy activity on Raw last night! No Alexa. No furthering of The Fiend's absence. Just wrestling and a lot of memes about Nia Jax's hole. Matt Riddle and Keith Lee had a swell little match to set up a Triple Threat at the next PPV for Lashley's US Title, and GOD,... Continue Reading →
It's just been a few days, but I REALLY seem to be the minority in my opinion on the 2021 Men's Royal Rumble match. I'm surprised to see so many people high up on it, but I can live with that. It clearly wasn't for me. It just felt do derivative. Randy Orton leaves early... Continue Reading →
2021: The Answer To My Wife's Question It's been a year, but we are back for another entry in my Ranking The Rumbles series! We are going to do things a little differently this year. I'll be actually talking about the whole of the 2021 Royal Rumble pay-per-view, though I will be focusing most of... Continue Reading →
