The WWE universe will be wishing Sasha Banks all the best in her recovery from injuries to her hip and tailbone suffered at Hell in a Cell. I will begin by stating the two picks in the draft which may be two of the most underrated. The first is Buddy Murphy, who appears to be … Read moreWWE Draft – Night 2

WWE is most likely going to leverage the star power of Tyson Fury for Crown Jewel emanating from Saudi Arabia. The company is likely going to book a match between Fury and Braun Strowman in addition to Cain Velasquez vs. Brock Lesnar (one would think the WWE Championship will be on the line). The Saudi … Read moreFury’s Star Power

This past week in pro wrestling was one of the greatest weeks in probably 20 years since the fateful week in January 1999 when Mick Foley won the WWE Championship. WWE never looked back, as WCW never beat them in TV ratings again and wound up being bought out by Vince McMahon in 2001. This … Read moreNot Cool Lashley

One has to feel a little bit for Braun Strowman because it seems that every time he gets in the picture for a world title match, he comes up short (no offense Gable). In the eyes of any observant fan, this obviously means that Vince McMahon doesn’t trust Braun enough to carry the company as … Read moreLast Title Opportunity for Mysterio

This week’s episode of Monday Night Raw was an entertaining episode because the pacing of the matches, as well as the backstage segments, were given a decent amount of time to develop. This week was headlined by Baron Corbin winning King of the Ring and the return of Kane (or should we say Glenn Jacobs, … Read moreKing Corbin

Before I get into any of the happenings this week on Monday Night Raw, I’d like to make a proposal for a storyline involving the Universal Championship (I’ve already made my proposal for Kevin Owens to become WWE Champion at WrestleMania 36, but I have been hesitant to make a prediction about the Universal Title … Read moreStone Cold at MSG

After seeing this week’s episode of Monday Night Raw play out, WWE fans can conclude that Bayley is turning heel and aligning with Sasha Banks. WWE creative is having Bayley maintain her loyalty and close connection with Sasha. I have two main thoughts about this: It’s refreshing to see a champion in WWE going through … Read moreBayley Heel Turn

I can’t think of a better way to spend my 23rd birthday than by thoroughly enjoying Monday Night Raw. Before I get into anything wrestling-related, I want to start out by addressing Andrew Luck’s rather abrupt retirement from the NFL (he is the son of Oliver Luck, who is the Commissioner of the XFL and … Read moreRollins and Strowman – Double Duty at COC

The remainder of August, as well as the entirety of September and October, will be slightly slower-paced months for WWE and there will be more time given for each individual match, or segment. If one pays close attention, this is not difficult at all to see. It seems to be a very good idea for … Read moreSlightly Slower Pace, New Tag Team Champions

It is a very big deal that Stone Cold Steve Austin, one of the greatest of all time, publicly gave Seth Rollins his approval as Universal Champion while Monday Night Raw was on the air. Seth’s confidence has clearly risen because of this as evidenced by the promo he cut right before his match with … Read moreAustin Endorses Seth

Tony Gonzalez’ Pro Football Hall of Fame Speech Before I get into discussing Monday Night Raw, I wanted to address something Tony Gonzalez said during his speech over the weekend at the Pro Football Hall of Fame enshrinement ceremony, which is absolutely true for every sport, including WWE. In essence, he said that “Hall of … Read moreTony Gonzalez & Goldberg

WWE followed the massive rating increase of the Raw reunion with one of the best episodes in recent memory, in this new, edgier, slightly more sophisticated version of the Attitude Era. The last segment of the show was particularly awesome with utter chaos taking place. I had absolutely no idea what was happening, and it … Read moreGreat Storytelling
