How weird is it that my favorite day on the MLB calendar falls in January? I’ve been pretty much nonexistent on the forums lately but I don’t want to disappoint the three or four people that read my traditional Hall of Fame thread so here I am. Let’s break it down. The New Class Chipper...

I've been nervous this day has been coming. He was a true legend. I'll go into more detail later on his importance to me as a fan. RIP Brain.

I'm hearing AJ Styles won the US title tonight. You don't see house show title changes very much anymore. Interesting.

I just read that Mr. Fuji has passed away. Mr. Fuji was one of the great heel managers of my childhood. Of course he wrestled and was a tag champion before his days as a manager but I think most of us know him as a manager. I’ll always associate him most with Demolition but he also...

From the mid 80s through all of the 90s Davey Boy Smith was in and out of the WWF. Whenever he left he wasn’t gone for long, and whenever he came back he was always welcomed as if he never left. He had a couple short runs in WCW but Davey Boy always seemed like a WWF guy. The British Bulldogs...

By the greatest pitcher of all time. Ok, slight exaggeration. Arrieta throwing a masterpiece in Cincinnati. You watching this GSB?

The outcome of pro wrestling matches are predetermined. I'm sorry if that surprises some of you. Maybe I should have put spoiler tags around that. Now that the cat is out of the bag on that one I have an even bigger shocker. I can't think of too many examples but sometimes the matches they...

I don’t think I need to inform people that are part of an internet wrestling forum that WWE has signed a lot of independent talent over the past year or two. Many “indy internet darlings” have found their way to either the main roster or NXT. We’ve seen Kevin Steen, Prince Devitt, El Generico...

I think most of us agree that Ted Dibiase was one of the best heels the WWF ever had. He debuted with the company in 1987 and was an immediate main event player beginning a program with Hulk Hogan upon his arrival. In fact he was responsible for ending Hogan’s four year title reign. Even...

Five years ago I created a thread asking who was the biggest name to have never competed at WrestleMania. This was limited to guys that were working for WWE during the WrestleMania years and were on the active roster during a WrestleMania. At the time Lance Storm was my pick but I don't think...

I've only been watching NXT for a couple weeks so I'm not too familiar with Elias Samson. I saw him for the first time about a week ago, and to be honest it took me a minute to realize he wasn't James Storm. Even though I'm not familiar with Samson I am a fan of the Drifter gimmick. Today I...

It's that time again. One of my favorite days of the year. It's MLB Hall of Fame day. Today the class of 2016 was announced so I will attempt to sound smart and give my annual analysis for the few who care to read it. One thing worth mentioning is around one hundred voters were eliminated...

Besides some of the Takeover shows I have not watched NXT. It's not that I haven't enjoyed it, I just haven't made it a part of my routine watching. For the past year I have constantly read about how great it is and how it's better than WWE. Now I'm hearing the London event (which as I type...

A lot of people have said 1997 was their favorite WWF year. It was definitely a turning point and even though we hadn't come to know the phrase yet the Attitude Era was underway. The roster was filled with both established and up and coming talent. The line between kayfabe and reality was...

Anybody care? No...ok

I just watched the latest Table For 3 show on WWE Network with William Regal, Wade Barrett, and Sheamus. Regal mentioned that he's been a comedy character for most of his WWE run and brought up the time he had to dress as a Vegas showgirl. I can't say I remember that night very well. It was...

It's time to visit my old school roots with a thread about a random wrestler that no one ever talks about. In this case it will be a tag team. The mid to late 80s were the golden age of tag team wrestling. If I were to ask people to name some WWF teams from that time undoubtedly I would hear...

It's that time of year again. The MLB Hall of Fame ballot for 2016 was released today. The results will be announced on January 6 and I plan on creating a more detailed thread that day to analyze everything, but in the meantime let's take a look at the ballot and make some predictions. Here's...

For the past several years Smackdown has become a joke among members of the IWC. It seems that very few people watch Smackdown on a regular basis and the ones that do go out of their way to tell us their only doing it out of boredom. It's almost as if it's embarrassing, even as an admitted...

Regardless of how some feel about the Diva Revolution it is indisputable that WWE is giving more attention to the women's division now than anytime in the past ten years, or maybe ever. For years the fans did not take the division seriously because the people in charge didn't take it seriously...
