With the year coming to a close, it seems like the perfect time to reflect on the biggest shift WWE has undergone in 2016. The brand split was meant to bring the best out of talent, and give greater opportunities to those deserving. However, it’s safe to say it was most likely a cash grab, …

WWE has been a media/television juggernaut for more than sixty years, but the name attached to the brand right now does not represent how far they’ve come from in the last 20 to 30 years. I grew up on the WWF side of the Monday Night Wars. When it was time to watch pro wrestling, …

WWE took a gamble on July 19th as they held their first draft in over fifteen years, effectively splitting up their roster into SmackDown and Raw exclusives. For the most part, the draft has been a success – new story lines have been introduced, new superstars have stepped up, and a breath of fresh air …

For those that have known me for a period of time, they’ll know I have never been fond on The Miz and I didn’t see what a lot of people saw in him during his Tag Team run with Jo-Mo and even more so in his WWE Title run, for me, much like Dolph Ziggler …

#DIY vs The Revival, TakeOver Toronto, November 2016 If ever there was a match that epitomises tag team wrestling then this was it. Since August both Ciampa & Gargano had vowed to dethrone the tag champs, if the previous TakeOver match was a verse then this was the chorus. The Revival have singlehandedly reinvented tag …

Today, I’m going talk about three superstars that are in the WWE’s cruiserweight division! KOTA IBUSHI Ibushi was the standout for me in the Cruiserweight Classic a few months ago, destroying absolutely everyone in the tournament in concession.

I’ve been in the background for a while. Like Shawn Michaels circa-1997, I lost my smile. Now I’ve found it again. Hopefully, like Michaels’ run between 2002-2010, this will be remembered more fondly. I’ve been a fan for over 25 years and have written all over the place, done a few podcasts and basically harrassed …

The WWE draft has been a revelation for some superstars on the roster, some have gone from strength to strength, however, others have seen their stock plummet dramatically. It’s quite fortunate that the company are currently so blessed with such exceptional talent, but for the talent themselves it can be a curse, because often some …
