Review: Strowman Destroys Reigns on Best ‘Monday Night Raw’ in Ages

Posted: April 11, 2017 at 1:00 pm   /   Professional Wrestling

In what was one of the best episodes of Monday Night Raw in years, the WWE Universe saw one man go on a warpath of destruction against another wrestler. I’m talking about Braun Strowman, the WWE’s new “Big Man.” Strowman is bigger than the Big Show, and more nimble than Kane or Undertaker. Face it, Strowman […]

Wrestlemania 32 Just Got Awesome – Shane McMahon vs. Undertaker

Posted: February 25, 2016 at 11:09 am   /   Local, Wrestling

After Sunday, I had my doubts that this years’ Wrestlemania would be as grand as past Mania’s had been. WWE’s Fastlane was not only predictable, but besides a pair of matches from Kevin Owens/Dolph Ziggler and Chris Jericho/A.J. Styles, the payperview was a disappointment. As Monday Night Raw opened, I was hoping to find out […]

Review: WWE Monday Night Raw in St. Louis (4/28)

Posted: April 30, 2014 at 2:53 pm   /   Local, Professional Wrestling, Television Reviews

This week’s edition of Monday Night Raw was not only the go-home show for the Extreme Rules pay per view, but also aired live from St. Louis. With the pay per view being less than a week away, there was not much hype surrounding this weeks edition of Raw, which was not necessarily a bad […]

WWE Review: WrestleMania 30 – A Weekend to Remember

Posted: April 8, 2014 at 11:15 pm   /   Local, Professional Wrestling, Television Reviews

WrestleMania weekend was everything I thought it would be. Fun, entertaining, and one hell of a long drive! I embarked on the journey to New Orleans with three friends. We left Thursday night, stopped in Tunica, which was not a good idea. The slot machines did not treat me well, however, the rest of the […]

WWE Monday Night Raw Review / Wrestlemania XXX Preview (3/31)

Posted: April 1, 2014 at 2:27 pm   /   Local, Professional Wrestling, Television Reviews, Wrestling

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 […]

Review: WWE Monday Night Raw (3/3)

Posted: March 6, 2014 at 10:03 pm   /   Local, Professional Wrestling, Television Reviews

The WWE sure knows how to play the fans. Raw was live from Chicago this week. After weeks of wondering what would happen due to local boy and company star CM Punk leaving, Raw went off without a hitch, and without Punk. Much to the chagrin of the fans, Punk never showed. What made it […]

Review: WWE Monday Night Raw (1/13)

Posted: January 15, 2014 at 9:33 am   /   Local, Professional Wrestling, Television

This week’s edition of Monday Night Raw continued to build upon the upcoming Royal Rumble pay per view. The main storyline to get a lot of attention was the Daniel Bryan/Bray Wyatt story. While it appeared that Bryan had gone to the dark side and joined the buzzards, apparently things changed on Raw. After opening […]

Review: “Old School” WWE Monday Night Raw – (1/6)

Posted: January 7, 2014 at 1:52 pm   /   Local, Professional Wrestling, Television Reviews, Wrestling

The first Monday Night Raw of 2014 was a start to what is hopefully a great year of wrestling. The theme for the first show of the year was “Old School,” which meant several former wrestling stars were scheduled to appear on the show. Wrestlers from the past such as Roddy Piper, Rikishi, Sgt. Slaughter, […]

Review: WWE Monday Night Raw (12/2)

Posted: December 6, 2013 at 9:32 am   /   Local, Professional Wrestling, Wrestling

The latest installment of WWE Raw was another snoozer. Try as they might, the WWE cannot overcome poor writing and trying to rebrand, repackage and resell matches from 2009 that fans’ have seen umpteen times before. It’s a losing battle that the WWE is fighting. I don’t see it improving until the part-time stars return […]

WWE Monday Night Raw Recap/Review (11/4) – Big Show vs. Randy Orton For Title? Corporate Kane?

Posted: November 7, 2013 at 10:41 am   /   Local, Professional Wrestling, Television Reviews

Well, it was back to the crapper for Monday Night Raw this week. I actually decided to watch it live, rather than DVR it, which made it even worse. There’s something to be said for the ability to be able to fast forward through a lot of the junk the WWE puts on television these […]
