Farewell, Bryan Danielson – Future WWE Hall-of-Famer
Yes, wrestling is scripted. It’s a male soap opera. I know that. Since I was 5 years old, I’ve loved the sport. WWE has been a part of my life every Monday night and one Sunday a month for a pay per view, for over 20 years. Wrestlers come and go, and it’s not very […]
Review: WWE Extreme Rules PPV (5/3)
To say the WWE’s booking of Extreme Rules was poor would be an understatement. It seemed like no one cared to watch this pay per view, but in the end I’m pretty sure most wrestling fans were pleasantly surprised. The show kicked off with a triple threat match between RVD, Jack Swagger, and Cesaro. This […]
WWE Monday Night Raw Review / Wrestlemania XXX Preview (3/31)
With WrestleMania 30 less than a week away, it’s time to look at the state of the WWE heading into the SuperBowl of wrestling. If Monday night’s Raw was any indication, WWE has done a fine job hyping 3 of the 8 scheduled matches. Unfortunately, that leaves 5 that may bore viewers. The biggest disappointment […]
WWE Monday Night Raw Recap/Review (10/7) – Daniel Bryan, Goldust and Cody Rhodes vs. The Shield, Big Show KOs Triple H
After screwing their viewers out of $55 the night before at a total piece of crap pay per view, WWE needed to respond with a worthy Raw the following Monday. In the end, it was by no means a great Raw, but it at least helped keep interest in some ongoing feuds. First, let me […]
WWE Monday Night Raw Review (9/23) – Rob Van Dam vs. Randy Orton, CM Punk and Paul Heyman Continue to Feud
This week’s Monday Night Raw was one of the more boring programs in recent months. It didn’t do much to advance any storyline, other than the Randy Orton/Daniel Bryan feud, as well as the CM Punk/Paul Heyman feud. My favorite segment of the night had to be Punk’s homecoming promo. The crowd was red hot […]
WWE Monday Night Raw Review (9/16) – The Corporation, Randy Orton and Daniel Bryan
Following a lackluster pay per view, I wasn’t sure where WWE was going to go with Raw. I was shocked that Daniel Bryan won the title – feeling that it’s too soon to leave Randy Orton in the dust as champion. And then WWE pulled one over on me, as I didn’t really expect Triple […]
WWE Monday Night Raw Review (9/2) – The New Corporation, Cody Rhodes Fired After Match With Orton
Monday Night Raw was again all about the new Corporation, driven by Triple H and Stephanie McMahon. Once again, Triple H had his way with Daniel Bryan, leaving one question in my mind. How long can WWE continue to have Bryan beaten to a pulp every week? Just when I thought things were going to […]
Where is WWE going with Daniel Bryan/Vince McMahon?
I’m going to take a break from my usual Raw Review column this week to focus on the big storyline from Raw and the effect it could have on the future of not just WWE, but wrestling in general. Of course the big storyline in the WWE right now centers around Daniel Bryan. Bryan is […]
WWE Monday Night Raw Review/Recap: Bray Wyatt Debut, Daniel Bryan vs Sheamus, CM Punk vs Randy Orton
This week’s Monday Night Raw was pretty effective in hyping Sunday’s Money in the Bank pay per view. With the debut of Bray Wyatt and the firing of GM Vickie Guerrero, the show still did a great job in promoting the upcoming event. First of all, I have to say that there were two very […]
WWE Monday Night Raw Review/Recap: Daniel Bryan Turns on Kane, Cena and Mark Henry, C.M. Punk Feuds With Curtis Axel
This week’s Monday Night Raw again was middle of the road, as an entire show goes. There was some good and some bad, much like last week. I think the main thing that Raw suffers from is the lack of explanation for some things. The first thing being the McMahon’s; Are they crazy, power-hungry, dictators, […]
