Now, I have never been one to doubt El Dandy, but I’ve also seldom ever doubted “The Excellence of Execution” himself, Bret Hart. Bret was always a Wrestler’s Wrestler. He was dedicated to the craft, and he took wrestling as seriously as anyone else who has ever stepped foot in a ring. Wrestling wasn’t just Bret’s career; it was his whole damn life. He was … Continue reading Bret Hart categories Classic
What am I even doing right now? I forgot already. Let’s look up at the title of this article again… oh, right! Gimmick matches! Got it. Let’s start the show! 5. Falls Count Anywhere Starting off really basic before we get to the more convoluted match types that I love, FCA is a bout that I usually get a kick out of. Much moreso than … Continue reading Top Five: Wrestling Gimmick Matches
For the fourth time already (wow!), it’s NXT’s new annual tradition: War Games! I’ll be honest… I had completely forgotten that KUSHIDA was not a part of this card until the pre-show failed to mention him. He’s been getting something of a huge push recently, so I was surprised he wasn’t included in some format. I figure he was initially planned to get a run … Continue reading NXT War Games 2020 Review
Remember last year? When WWE went through a minor international incident that necessitated the complete reworking of an episode of Smackdown, which then resulted in NXT becoming an integral part of Survivor Series? I miss those days. For 2020, WWE’s Survivor Series was back to a two-show affair. Just Raw and Smackdown were competing for supremacy. To see which show is… The Best Of The … Continue reading Survivor Series 2020 Review
I have one very prominent thought that is impacting much of my watching tonight: I swear to god I thought the Seahawks’ game was supposed to be at 4pm EST! But nope, they moved the game to Sunday Night Football, opposite what will be at least the second half of Hell In A Cell. Can I further erode my entertainment-adled mind by watching this show, … Continue reading Hell In A Cell 2020 Thoughts And Review
With the 2020 WWE Superstar Draft Extravaganza in the rear view mirror, Raw and Smackdown kicked off with their… *sigh*… Season Premiere episodes this past week. It’s the start of new things in WWE for the next year-plus, as talents moved to new pastures. But did WWE get it right? Honestly, I don’t think they did a terrible job. There were some flubs and some … Continue reading The 2020 WWE Draft Reimagined
Wait… is it Premier? Or Premiere? Spell check says they are both right. I think one is, like, the ruler of a country, and the other is a debut of something. I honestly didn’t know those words were not both spelled the same way! Damn, Raw is teaching me English tonight. One of them means Soccer or something, too, right? Anyway, tonight was the season … Continue reading Raw 2020 Season Premiere
For my Night One coverage, check HERE! After having not seen any full, live episodes of Raw or Smackdown in several years, I found my first dive back in–the Smackdown Draft Night–to be highly entertaining. I was pleasantly surprised by the overall quality of that episode. Could Raw keep up the momentum? And wow… Raw is REALLY three hours long these days, huh? I know … Continue reading The 2020 WWE Draft: Night two (Monday Night Raw)
I’mma be straight with you right at the start: This was the first episode of WWE television I have watched live in literal years. As noted previously, I maintain my love of WWE with a steady diet of watching Pay-Per-Views and Network Specials ONLY. It’s better for everyone that way. I read the day-after Raw and Smackdown reviews and see how upsetting everything sounds. Who … Continue reading The 2020 WWE Draft: Smackdown Night One Coverage
