    Jake Paul vs Mike Tyson November 15th, Live on Netflix

    If they are going to do these exhibition bouts, I really don't know why they don't just outright work them to make them more entertaining. If you can't give us the sport, give us a spectacle instead. Lay it out with a booker, figure out the best way to make it look good, throw in some...

    Mike Rotunda & Barry Windham Being Inducted into the HOF

    I was thinking the same thing. I was having flashbacks to Scott Hall being referenced exclusively as Razor Ramon and Madusa as Alundra Blayze. Hopefully, this is a sign that in the post-McMahon era more emphasis is going to be put on the names they are most well known by or what they wrestled...

    WWE passes 100 million YouTube subscribers

    With them hitting this milestone and as many of their videos hit huge numbers, it makes me wonder if now is the time for them to try a YouTube show. Like putting Main Event or NXT Lvl Up on there instead of having them on a pay service. It seems like that would be a better platform as I cannot...

    Mike Rotunda & Barry Windham Being Inducted into the HOF

    Well deserved moment for both men! They often get overlooked in discussions on classic WWF teams of the 1980s hopefully this will help freshen up memories of their time on top during that era!

    WWE pushing for The Rock to wrestle at May Saudi Arabia PLE

    I think his involvement will be a direct reflection of how strong his ties to Hollywood remain going forward. If he thinks he still has a strong standing with his position as an entertainer, I'd be willing to wager he wouldn't want to rock any boats by involving himself with an event that...

    TNA Sacrifice 2024 - FRIDAY, March 8 - Live from Windsor, Ontario - Live on TNA+

    That would actually be an outstanding idea, and seems perfect for TNA.

    AEW Collision March 9th, 2024: ATLANTA STREET FIGHT!!

    Now my brain is going "What would a Mistico/Okada match look like? Would it be a clash of styles or a fantastic match for the ages?" Have those two ever crossed paths before?

    Sammy Guevara Suspended

    If the reasoning behind Sammy's punishment is that he hit his finisher on Jeff, then Jeff should be punished as well for going with it. They obviously worked together on that, and Jeff ignored whatever protocols they have in place for those situations as much as Sammy did. If the idea is...

    The 2020 Era Starting to Become a Retroactive Guilty Pleasure

    Here is something unusual I have noticed after the last year of Triple H booking WWE: the better the promotion has gotten at re-focusing on good wrestling and solid booking, the more I find myself softening up on the bizarre, "cinematic" era of 2020 WWE. At the time, you could not have found a...

    Sammy Guevara Suspended

    I'm still trying to figure out why Sammy got punished, but the referee nor Jeff Hardy did. I keep hearing "Well, Sammy did a move...", but it was obvious Jeff and Sammy worked it out on the spot (you can practically see them conversing moments later), and Jeff went up for it. If Sammy had yanked...

    Ballyhoo

    I picked up Ballyhoo!: The Roughhouses, Con Artists, and Wildmen Who Invented Professional Wrestling by Jon Langmead about a week ago, and I have been completely enthralled so far. If you have any interest whatsoever in the earliest days of American professional wrestling, I could not recommend...

    First Time in a Forum in a LONG Time

    So, you're saying that I have been hoodwinked, bamboozled, and led astray?? I am...shocked!

    First Time in a Forum in a LONG Time

    I'll probably try that out during Smackdown if I get to watch it live!

    First Time in a Forum in a LONG Time

    Well, "Mr. Butters" sounds like a name that would be on a boss' door in an office environment, so I think that fits.

    First Time in a Forum in a LONG Time

    I think it'd be easiest just to summarize by saying "I will watch or at least try anything in a ring, on a mat, or inside a cage." I've been a fan since 1986 and continue to love the sport to this day.

    First Time in a Forum in a LONG Time

    Good evening everyone. My name is Will, and I am trying the forum thing for the first time in probably over a decade. I don't know if this will be a better environment to discuss pro wrestling than wide-open social media or if it will be even more chaotic. I am thinking the former, but maybe I...
