The Rock is one of the greatest of all-time for sure (both in WWE history, and overall pro wrestling history), but he's not the greatest (again in both WWE and especially overall pro wrestling history). The Rock's greatest shortcoming when it comes to his legacy, is his lack of longevity. I...

I was highly annoyed and deeply offended when I watched the match too when it happened. And I was always team WWF/E, so I'm not a biased WCW mark. From what I remember what was on the internet at the time, it wasn't supposed to be Sting's only match. From what I understood and was reading...

One of the most prestigious awards that an artist and/or performer can win is the Kennedy Center Honors award. Since 1978, 5 artists/groups/duos in a number of formats of the performing arts have been chosen to receive the award each year. The honorees are honored over a weekend in Washington...

Best wrestling podcast is Something to Wrestle With Bruce Prichard. Conrad Thompson, his co-host, knows his stuff and does ridiculous amount of research. Bruce and Conrad each week go ridiculously into detail over a particular topic, and it's extremely entertaining, with Bruce's hilarious...

That's actually not quite the case. The NFL Combine is usually from February to early March. If WWE holds off on Wrestlemania until April like they've done the last few years, it shouldn't be an issue. For example, the NFL combine this year is from February 27-March 5. Wrestlemania is on...

Congratulations to Goldberg and now the Dudley Boyz for being inducted into the HOF. That being said, if the rumored class turns out to be correct, it would be, IMO, the weakest and most underwhelming class ever for the HOF. I would assume WWE would go with more than 5 names that are...

I'm torn on Wrestlemania VIII. On the one hand, it's one of my favorite events ever. Not just because I attended it and it was only my second live wrestling event (and first ppv), but it also had two top 25 WM matches of all-time. Bret and Piper and Savage and Flair. It's hard for any WM to...

I generally love the 1991 Survivor Series event, even though it could've been better. I absolutely loved the opening match of Piper/Hart/Bulldog/Virgil against Flair/Dibiase/Warlord/Mountie. One of the best Survivor Series elimination matches ever. And of course the Hogan/Taker match was a...

Where's Bret Hart on the card? I don't see him anywhere.

First off, I've enjoyed reading your re-writes of the early 1990's WWF (E), and thus far, I've actually agreed with or enjoyed most of your re-writes of storylines, feuds, championship wins/losses, what you did with wrestlers' careers, etc. But this is the first one where you've done some...

Rather than listing the most stacked roster in WWE history, with the top being candidates (84, 87, 91, 92, 98-99, 02-03, current) already being mentioned, I"m gonna instead list what I feel is the most overlooked and underrated/stacked roster in the history of the WWE, which hasn't been...

Another point that people tend to mostly forget about that helped bring about the decline in ratings and viewership was the disastrous move to move Raw from the USA Network to TNN in September of 2000. TNN was not near as big of a tv channel then as it is today, and it was probably in about a...

I've got a couple of mind, although they may not count. My first one is the Steiner Brothers vs. the Headshrinkers at WM IX. That's one of the most overlooked and underrated WM matches ever, as IMO it was the best match on the abysmal WM IX card. It was a great match that should be talked...

I think this would be a tremendous thing for WWE, any indy promotions (TNA probably the least), and most importantly wrestling fans all around. Having a wrestling network that has WWE, WCW, ECW, TNA, ROH, AWA, Florida Championship Wrestling, World Class Championship Wrestling, and more, how...

I do think the roster is overworked big time, and there's a number of causes to it. Comparing it to the roster of the 80's and 90's, wrestlers back then didn't have to take off near as much time for injuries, like wrestlers are nowadays. There was never a situation where Hulk Hogan, Randy...

I absolutely love what you did with this year's event. I wasn't so big on some of your changes from the 1987 Survivor Series, but you vastly improved the real-life card with your version. There's only two major problems I see, along with one slight thing I disagree with. One is that you're...

Love the idea of re-booking classic Survivor Series events as that hasn't really been touched upon so much, unlike Wrestlemania and Summerslam which have been done to death. The only problem for this particular instance is that I loved the 1987 Survivor Series event, and you took away some of...

Yeah, I really screwed up by not putting Luger in the poll. I wouldn't say he was the best wrestler of the year per se, but he definitely should've been in the discussion. That was a major mistake on my part. I should've probably included him on the poll over one of the ECW guys (like Sabu...

I couldn't include every notable wrestler from 1997, as I was trying to bring up names from all three major American promotions, hence why I had an "other" option there, and that's where I did mentioned Eddie Guerrero. You could certainly make the argument that Eddie belongs in the...

I voted for Bret Hart as well, (though Stone Cold came close as my second choice) for all the reasons you listed. 1997 is my favorite year ever for wrestling and Bret Hart is a major reason for that. He was the anchor of WWE that year, and so much of what happened that year centered on Bret...
