Look, I don't want Lesnar gone, that wasn't my point. My point is that his matches have become stale and useless. He won't be a draw if fans smarten up and realize every match is pretty much identical with a bit of his opponent's offense peppered in for flavor. Brock is a beast, he's...

Look, I've watched wrestling since I was six and I'm not a kid anymore. I've followed WWE from the time it was the WWF with larger than life superstars like Andre, Hogan, Savage, Warrior and so on through the attitude Era to now. I've been so pumped with the success of Nxt, the brand...

A lot of Good wrestlers were in ECW at some point. Names like Steve Austin, Chris Benoit, Bam Bam Bigelow, Chris Candido, Christopher Daniels, Lance Storm, Terry Funk, Rey Mysterio, Scott Hall, Stan Hansen, Chris Jericho, Eddie Guerrero, Dean Malenko... And the list goes on.

So, let's travel back in time and land at Raw on February 24th, 1997 when ECW invaded Raw. Let's pretend that Paul Heyman is a wrestler in ECW, not the owner. Let's assume he'll currently have the mic skills from back then and still evolve into the unique mouth piece he is today. Let's also...

Face Commentator and Play by Play: Jim Ross Heel Commentator and Play by Play: William Regal Color Commentator: Matt Striker JR is the voice, Regal is the wrestler, and Striker is the passion.

Okay...if they couldn't even give us a Daniel Bryan appearance in the Royal Rumble match, they could have at least stood behind Roman Reigns. Did you hear those chants for Reigns at the end? How could the WWE not predict the fans would side with Reigns over Batista? When will WWE realize that...

Agreed. The birth of a great character should come from a collaboration between creative and the performer. If the backstory and gimmick aren't believable, then the character won't feel real. If the performer can't embrace the character, we as the fans will notice...

So, I've noticed something that Triple H said not too long ago popping up in a lot of people's posts. Triple H commented that he doesn't want any developmental talent being brought up from NXT or anywhere else unless creative has fleshed out long term plans for them. Now I, for one, absolutely...

When I read your post I imagined Antonio Cesaro feuding with Wade Barret for the World Title. Antonio reminds me of wrestling the way it was back in the 80's when I was growing up. If more "wrestlers" like Cesaro, ones who put the "W" back in WWE as he says, held the title, I could see title...

I agree. The only individuals out there that buy into the "deadman" and "mystical powers" aspect of his gimmick are kids. I know that my three do anyways. I wouldn't mind seeing the American Badass gimmick return with a touch of ministry Taker in there. If you could take the American Badass...

I had the displeasure of seeing Nailz perform at a local wrestling event some 15 years ago or so and he was ridiculous. There were a lot of kids at the event and I know from time to time wrestlers cuss under their breath during a match, or mouth the words, but Nailz was screaming obscenities...

I like your perspective. When reading wrestling websites and dirt sheets, I tend to take everything with a grain of salt, but I still read them. I think it's human nature to want to deconstruct things to understand how they work, and hopefully to gain a deeper appreciation for it as a result...

I've been watching a lot of Bray Wyatt lately and agree with most of you that he is great at what he does. I also agree with Triple H's thoughts of not calling up talent until long term storylines are setup for them, but... Instead of bringing up Bray and the Wyatt family, just bring up Bray...

I've been a wrestling fan ever since I was 5 years old when my dad ordered Wrestlemania 2 on pay per view. Oddly enough, the only match I have memories of watching was the twenty man battle royal ending with Andre eliminating Bret Hart(I believe this was when I became a Bret Hart fan growing...

The question is real simple. I am a big fan of WWE's Multimedia Department as far as Video Packages hyping matches go. The best video packages are the ones that air the night of the PPV showcasing everything that's happened in the feud up until that point. My favorite video package or promo...
