Well…that didn’t take very long. After a couple of months competing head-to-head with WWE, TNA Wrestling has decided to pack it up and go home. Continually getting trounced in the ratings by WWE Monday Night Raw, TNA Impact is heading back to Thursday nights starting May 13, 2010. In a …
In a surprise move, Chikara Pro is getting into videogame business with Rudo Resurrection (trailer posted above). I’m guessing most of you haven’t heard of Chikara. It’s an indie-wrestling organization featuring some truly outstanding talent, including one of my personal favorite, Claudio Castagnoli.
You’d think that Chikara would try to get …
WWE is kicking off its annual draft on tonight’s episode of Monday Night Raw. It looks like there’s a good chance that Kofi Kingston and Cody Rhodes will be heading to SmackDown; ProWrestling.net has reported that the two were seen filming a SmackDown commercial in Los Angeles.
I want to hear …
WWE has announced that it has released Mickie James, Shelton Benjamin, Katie Lea Burchill, Jimmy Wang Yang, Kung Fu Naki, and Slam Master J. I’m mildly surprised that Benjamin was released. He’s a phenomenal talent, but the company struggled to highlight him (no, I’m not talking about his hair). I’m …

I’m too emotionally spent for a full recap. I’m having a hard time imagining how I’m going to enjoy WWE without Shawn Michaels. Wow. Anyway, here are the results (mostly from my friends Joey and Jose who were at the event).
- Yoshi Tatsu won a dark-match battle-royal.
- The Big Show …
I am totally bummed that WrestleMania 26 will be the first one I’ve missed in eight years. My streak is over, but hopefully so is The Undertaker’s. Before I get ahead of myself, I wanted to give you my WM26 predictions and I’d like you to post yours in the …
Last night’s episode of WWE Monday Night Raw was one of the best I’ve seen in a long, long time. The wrestling was decent, but the mic work was truly memorable. There was a certain edge to a number of promos — an edge that has been missing ever since …
“The Nature Boy” Ric Flair is 61 today! Whoooooooo!!! Flair is the best pro-wrestler I’ve ever seen and is a living legend. There are so many brilliant Ric Flair moments (spanning four decades!). While his “retirement” match with Shawn Michaels is fresh on my mind, I’m going to go with …
