I know it’s been nearly two weeks since WrestleMania 30, so I’ll try to make my thoughts on the show quick. I had an absolute blast watching WrestleMania this year with my brother and my nephew. I thought it was the best WrestleMania in many years and it’s easily in my top five of all …

Welcome to the dungeon! This past week on Raw, the WWE began a tournament to determine the number 1 contender for the Intercontinental Championship. I have one question – why? I have never been a big fan of tournaments to determine number 1 contenders or champions, simply because it seems creatively lazy. The Intercontinental …

The events which took place in New Orleans at Wrestlemania 30 are sure to leave a lasting image in most, if not all wrestling fans around the world. The very image of the Undertaker lay down on the canvas whilst the Titan Tron showed the image “21-1” will forever last in our memories, that combined …

For this weeks look at the world of professional wrestling, I decided to open with a joke. What do bearded underdog wrestling champions have in common with buses?

Under the Spotlight – Beasts, Kings and Warriors
- By Adam O'Brien in Editorials, Slider, WWE
A lot can happen in one week.

The Week that Was for 4/12: Thoughts on the Ultimate Warrior
- Filed under Editorials, Slider
I guess I’ll use my column this week to talk about the death of the Ultimate Warrior. A few days later it’s still bizarre that I’m typing that. He’d been a focal part of the Hall of Fame and participated at Wrestlemania and Raw just days prior to his death. It was clear that he …

***EDITOR’S NOTE – This article was written BEFORE the outcome of WrestleMania 30 on Sunday night/Monday morning*** By the time you read my article this week, the dust will have settled and WrestleMania 30 will be resigned to the history books.

You Dont Know What You Got Till It’s Gone
- Filed under Editorials, Slider, WrestleMania
Wrestlemania eh? For someone who writes about wrestling, this was the PPV that just kept giving. From Hogan’s “Silverdome” to Cena winning, there’s plenty to moan about in there. But…there’s one thing the whole world is talking about. I’ve seen some major sporting shocks in my time – Tyson being knocked out, Manchester City …
