My primary takeaway from this first episode was when The Undertaker (or Mark Calloway) said “less is more.” This is incredibly true and very applicable to the superstars of today. Sure, they can’t do everything you could imagine athletically, but at the end of the day it doesn’t matter if they can’t captivate and enthrall … Read moreSteve Austins Broken’s Skull Podcast with The Undertaker

Seth Rollins’ heel turn is finally official, at least for this week. WWE creative went about it in a very clever way by adding a very real element to it.  This is exactly what Seth does on social media, a perfect example being when he called AEW the minor leagues of wrestling. The more he … Read moreRollins Heel Turn Cemented for The Week

The single biggest take away from Survivor Series was that NXT seems to have been officially established as a third brand in WWE. NXT is no longer just developmental, but rather a place that has more of a focus on recruiting young talent that has not previously been with the company. It just feels right … Read moreSurvivor Series

Most true wrestling fans have an appreciation for NXT Takeover events because while only 4-5 matches take place at each one, they are still of the utmost quality and keep fans talking about them for several months until the next Takeover. The current NXT superstars who will most likely be receiving a sizable push heading … Read moreNXT Takeover: WarGames

The men’s division in AEW – particularly the top 10 or so guys – is virtually on par with that of WWE. There are absolutely no concerns in that department. The character development of the guys in AEW is every bit as good and in some ways a little better than WWE. It cannot be … Read moreContrasting AEW & WWE Rosters

CM Punk makes some very valid points regarding his criticisms of WWE. Even a WWE fan like myself has to acknowledge that he is exactly right when he says that there is too much micromanagement in WWE. Even Vince McMahon himself has to admit that sometimes he is a bit of a control freak who … Read moreCM Punk’s Criticism of WWE

It looks like WWE came to the realization that Jerry Lawler and Vic Joseph did not provide quite the level of excitement that the WWE universe is used to on Monday Night Raw November 11th. Because Dio Maddin is still out due to his storyline injury from Brock Lesnar’s attack, Vince McMahon wisely chose to … Read moreSamoa Joe on Commentary Salvages Monday Night Raw

A potential avenue could have been created for WWE to orchestrate the breakup of The New Day with the injury to Xavier Woods. Upon his return, he and Big E could decide to turn on Kofi Kingston because he has gotten most of the glory out of the three men. This could have built up … Read moreBreakup of The New Day

In my humble opinion, 205 Live as well as dark matches before Raw and after SmackDown should be done away with in order to avoid overexposure of the WWE product. Take the two dark matches that occurred after the November 15th SmackDown for instance: Roman Reigns vs. King Corbin and Daniel Bryan vs. The Fiend. … Read moreElimination of 205 Live and Dark Matches

The recent regaining of his first name coupled with his appearance on the CBS Evening News could signify that WWE has come to the realization that they have struck gold with Mustafa Ali. The former cop has formed a deep connection with the WWE universe in a relatively short amount of time. Not to mention … Read moreMustafa Ali Big Push Pending

The Full Gear main event on November 9th between Kenny Omega and Jon Moxley was a little gory and uncomfortable to watch at a couple of points. What drew fans to it was the palpable level of passion the two men brought. They told an absolutely fantastic story without saying a word. There hasn’t been … Read moreAEW Full Gear Main Event

For all the scrutiny SmackDown has gotten since moving to FOX, the quality of the show is pretty damn good with WWE settling into its new home. The show is starting to feel more like an actual sporting event, as promised. My hypothesis is… this is due to the pace of the show slowing down … Read moreGood Quality
