Wrestling Chatter

Hi guys, Well, despite everything going on in the world, WWE really are going ahead with business as usual. It turns out that despite many protests from fans, they are going ahead with Wrestlemania without any crowds. They've also gone one step beyond that!  Now airing on both Saturday and Sunday (US time), WWE have followed New Japan's lead and made the biggest show of the year run over two dates! This means that there will now probably be nearly twice the amount of matches and whether that's a good thing or not, well we'll have to wait and see! I guess in one way you could see it as a replacement for NXT Takeover which always happens the day before Wrestlemania. Of course, with more matches, it means a lot more matches to preview and it's especially hard at the moment as we have no idea which matches are going to be on what day. So, I've decided to stray away from my usual match by match preview (because it will take me all week), and instead I...

Hi guys, Another year, another Wrestlemania and another mixed set of matches and results. I normally do this sort of thing match by match but I'm finding it monotonous so I am trying something different - maybe it'll work, maybe it won't. Overall, I think that this year's WM was alright. There were some amazing matches, there were some meh matches, there were some good booking and there was some awful bookings of the superstars.  The Pre-Show The disappointment of the pre-show only came from the messy Andre the Giant Memorial Battle Royal because the CW championship and Women's Battle Royal was very good for a pre-show. The women's match was filled with rivalries and stories from the use of Paige on commentary to the NXT girls teaming together and giving the main roster women a run for their money. I was so happy and surprised that Naomi won but it was well deserved and could be the start of another push. I also can't praise Cedric Alexander an...

Hi guys, I know its a bit weird writing this post just as Miz lost his IC title and is off to film the final instalment of Marine 5... or is it?  The Miz is probably one of the veterans of WWE and has probably been there for one of the longest periods (obviously minus Cena, Kane etc). Yet, his career seems to be a series of mid card positions and failed top card attempts (which is no fault of the Miz but booking *is that any surprise*) when really, to me, he seems to be one of the stars holding the company together.  I think he may be the best heel the company has had for so long, probably the best in the modern era. Okay, he doesn't keep kayfabe because we all know he's such a sweetheart and so friendly but that doesn't matter. Whenever he's in the ring, he just seems to attract heat from the crowd and genuinely come across as though he hates everything and everyone that comes near him, except Maryse and the Miztourage! It seems as if he's that one c...
