You heard it everywhere before the Rumble and now that Bryan meets Reigns at Fast Lane the sentiment is out there all over again: "Daniel Bryan vs Brock Lesnar is too unrealistic. In a real fight Lesnar would squish Bryan like a bug. There is no way we the fans can suspend disbelief to such a...

Aside from the fact that the whole "America sucks and my country doesn't"-gimmick is tired and old, am I the only one who is bothered by the fact that Rusev simply is NOT Russian? :shrug: Sure, they try to gloss it over by saying that he now "resides" in Moscow, but man, does it ever feel...

Lately all I kept hearing is how high the WWE is on him and how they're going to push him to the moon. They put Daniel Bryan with him (that plan got mercy killed) and now rumor has it he will be facing Cena at Wrestlemania. Is he really that good? I mean, granted, he is different. Check...

Sometimes I surprise myself. When I recently found out there is a theory that Chris Benoit was, in fact, and innocent victim of a conspiracy to murder him and his family and to frame him, I was actually astonished. This is probably old news to everyone else, but I sure as hell didn't know. I...

Reading The Brain's thread on Diesel's reign as WWF champion ( http://forums.wrestlezone.com/showthread.php?t=264145 ) I was reminded of one of the things that have always bothered me in the mid-90s WWF: Bob Backlund winning the WWF title from Bret Hart. What exactly was the deal there...

(Warning: This thread is a needlessly wordy rant. Might as well skip to the very last sentence. That being said, if you've got time to waste, please read on.) To answer my own question: Yes, of course. All it takes is a look at the ratings and PPV buy rates to know the answer. I felt compelled...

As has been reported on WZ the WWE has been polling their fans about their interest in several possible DVD releases. Namely the following: Best of Shotgun Saturday Night Best of Velocity Best of WWE Superstars Best of WWE Saturday Morning Slam Thanksgiving Moments Best of Bra and...

What is your (least) favorite WCW logo? Having a background in graphic (&) design I'm one of those people who pay way too much attention to details like championship belts, ring attires, stage designs and, especially, logos. For example, when the WWF changed to WWE and all they did was "get...

OK, maybe not really. But I have a hard time remembering the last time I laughed so hard. As a kid I only noticed that the movie was bad. I didn't notice, however, how unintentionally hilarious that piece of crap was. Here are some thoughts and questions that went through my head watching this...

I've always wondered when the beer made its first appearance. When he made his famous King of the Ring speech he wasn't doing it yet (or was he?). His career took off after that. And at some point he started drinking a lot of beer during the show or after matches. Anyone know when exactly?

So I watched that Bottom Line Stone Cold DVD the other day. One thing that stood out to me was the historic Austin-Bret Hart match at Wrestlemania 13, where both Austin turned babyface and Bret Hart turned heel. Several people weigh in with their thoughts on this one. "The hardest thing in...

Ever notice how many wrestling maneuvers have names that just don't make any sense? I never really questioned them because I learned those names long before I even learned to speak English, so for the most part I sidestepped the whole "why is it called that?"-phase. With some moves it's...

For myself it was a gradual thing. I heard the "truth" from day one, but I wasn't quite ready to believe it. The first time I came in contact with wrestling was through my older brother when I was about maybe 7. Smartass that he was, though, he didn't waste any time going on and on about how...

There were these kids at the bus stop today. One said to the other: "There was this movie on TV last night. They totally ripped off Sting. The guy was all dressed in black with White make up. Looked exactly like him. How lame." You can't make up shit like that.

The way we were... Remember the good old days? When Austin and the Rock were raising hell and the program was raunchy and Attitude and everyone loved it and the WWF presented just an awesome product all around? Because I don't. Here is what I do remember: I remember people being sick of...

Let's say you are an evil spirit and you hate wrestling, especially the WWE. You take possession of the mind of Vincent Kennedy McMahon and your plan is to drive his company out of business. But since you have a twisted sense of humor you want to do it through booking storylines and hiring and...

Anyone else notice Punk last Monday using the forbidden word? The w-word. Considering how much trouble the WWE is going through to pretend the word "wrestling" doesn't exist, I thought it amusing that Punk would flat out state "I am the best wrestler in the world." :p

I just watched the 06/03 edition of Smackdown! And saw the Johnny Curtis promo in which he explained why his tag title match with R-Truth is not going to happen. I got that part. But then he said: "Therefore I am going to do what any WWE superstar would do." He then proceeds to pour milk into...

I cant remember the last time he used his actual finisher, this Running Razor's Edge type thingy. Instead he uses his bicycle-kick more and more often to end his matches. It seems he is subtly changing it to his official finisher. Good thing, too. It's his best move. I have seen this twice...
