    Antonio Cesaro Labeled "Boring" By WWE Officials

    I feel like anything I say would just be repeating my thoughts on Wade Barrett, another guy with the same kind of appeal and badly needs direction. A guy could possess all the qualities one could ask for in a wrestler or a draw but they won't get over yodeling to the ring every week. Cesaro is...

    Dolph Ziggler IS NOT Main Event Quality

    I wish WWE had built him up better in the time between his MITB win and cash in and figured out what they wanted to do with him, because there was really no growth or change in Dolph on the road to the title. He's exactly the same Dolph Ziggler he was a year ago and he's no more compelling as a...

    Royal Rumble & Elimination Chamber See Big Increase In PPV Buys

    There's no questioning Rock's draw power, but to me Rock is someone you'd bring in particularly when you want to draw attention to your show when you've got something big planned. It gets annoying when it seems like the end goal is (or that it should be) just about the pay day, and it's all...

    Official Payback Poster?

    The last couple of years WWE have been designing posters based on concept rather than glitzy or grungy effects, like an advertisement rather than a "poster", I think it's usually more fun actually (everyone hated the Del Rio MITB one but I thought it was just clever). That said, this one is...

    Hollywood Director Says The Rock Needs To Grow Up And Stop Wrestling

    It's an easy statement to rip apart coming from an easier target, but I guess he was just fucking around. Most people who don't watch wrestling see it as immature anyway so it's nothing unusual either.

    WWE Asking Fans Why They Stopped Watching

    Match quality is just one factor of many that makes pro wrestling interesting. How much it matters depends on the fan I guess, but it is not the end all. The reasons why have been laid out pretty well already. Wrestling is all about making people want to see extraordinary athletes "fight" each...

    The Undertaker Praises Several Talents

    It's good to hear that now and then there's someone with status just letting guys know what they're doing well, rather than doghousing them when they step out of line. Positive feedback and opportunities are what make people wanna push forward.

    *SPOILERS* WWE SmackDown Tapings for 4/26/13

    I gotta say, without being familiar with any of Ambrose's work pre-WWE, I'm still waiting to see what all the talk is about. I've watched a couple of FCW promos and even at a glance I think he pulls off his gimmick very well, but I agree with Cork that Reigns and Rollins have kinda overshadowed...

    WWE.com teasing a 4th Shield member

    True, they can always pull any reason they want out of thin air. But I'd really prefer if they were more careful in The Shield's case. It's already a skeptical choice to give them a hidden leader figure and it seems like another one of those things where it's only done for the sake of an...

    WWE.com teasing a 4th Shield member

    I'd rather not see Punk lead another faction but he is literally the only connection to The Shield that has ever been teased, if they choose to go through with this angle. I really like how The Shield truly operates as a unit with no singular head of the group, it really sets them apart from the...

    Zack Ryder Turning Heel?

    I'll need to see how the gimmick works before I make any assessments, but I will say that even though I don't really like Zack, I do think he deserves the chance. I think I'd enjoy Ryder more if he improved his delivery on the mic.

    WWE Asking Fans Why They Stopped Watching

    Short version: Bad writing and the lack of angles and storylines distributed amongst the card for people to work with. I know WWE is bound to get a lot of "we want less Cena" responses and his lengthy dominance over the roster does frustrate me as well. But it's not because he doesn't deserve...

    Backstage News on Punk's WWE Status, Original Plans for RAW, Problems with Creative

    Re: Backstage News on Punk's WWE Status, Original Plans for RAW, Problems with Creati May as well give Punk all the time he needs to heal up since he's not getting another reign in the near future and there are plenty of others ready to try and fill Punk's spot. Also allows Punk and his...

    I'm only finishing watching Raw just now and I'm kinda starting to hate how WWE takes any fun and organic fan reaction, as with Fandango and Daniel Bryan, then base entire segments around it and milk it until it's just mechanical and no longer interesting.
