During our formative, teenage years, my friends and I were big fans of wrestling; the industry was at its peak back then as the World Wrestling Federation (WWF) went head-to-head with World Championship Wrestling (WCW). Since then, the industry and my passion for it has died down somewhat as World Wrestling Entertainment (WWE) reigns as the dominant “sports entertainment” product. Still, I like to keep abreast of current events in the WWE and share my thoughts on their annual pay-per-view events and classic matches.
Wrestling Recap [3:16 Day]: Rock vs. Austin (WrestleMania X-Seven)
“Talk about your psalms, talk about “John 3:16”…Austin 3:16 says I just whupped your ass!” With those immortal words, spoken by the legendary pro wrestler “Stone Cold” Steve Austin after winning the King of the Ring tournament on 23 June 1996, a momentous wrestling career was about to unfold before our eyes that would see … Continue reading Wrestling Recap [3:16 Day]: Rock vs. Austin (WrestleMania X-Seven)
Wrestling Recap: Survivor Series Results
Heading into this year’s Survivor Series, it’s fair to say that a large chunk of the WWE’s marketing and build has centred around the event coinciding with the Undertaker’s thirtieth anniversary and his “final farewell” to the role (and, presumably, wrestling).

On paper, this makes sense as you don’t want to risk … Continue reading Wrestling Recap: Survivor Series Predictions
Wrestling Recap: Hell in a Cell Results
Winner: R–Truth by pin fall, championship retained Though relegated to the kick-off show, this was a surprise addition to the card; still, when was the last time the 24/7 Championship was actually defending in a match? Seems like almost immediately after introducing it they would suspend the 24/7 rule just to keep the belt from … Continue reading Wrestling Recap: Hell in a Cell Results
Wrestling Recap: Hell in a Cell Predictions
I can’t help but notice that the WWE hasn’t really put that much effort into putting together a match card for this year’s Hell in a Cell event; only a few days ago, there were just four matches announced for the pay-per-view, with two of them, of course, being Hell in a Cell matches. Instead, … Continue reading Wrestling Recap: Hell in a Cell Predictions
Wrestling Recap: Clash of Champions: Gold Rush Results
Well, I’m glad I went to all that trouble to actually praise the WWE for managing to get all of their main roster belts on a pay-per-view for a change only for them to pull two matches at the very last minute; to be fair, I wasn’t especially hyped to see Bayley fight Nikki Cross … Continue reading Wrestling Recap: Clash of Champions: Gold Rush Results
