Hell in a Cell 2015 airs on WWE Network Sunday, but I’m not entirely sure this isn’t a 2002 throwaway pay-per-view given the lineup. In fact, two of Hell in a Cell’s featured matches happened on the same card, this same month, 13 years ago. Undertaker-Lesnar is the return engagement of a plodding match that […]

USA Network and WWE announced their longstanding partnership is expanding in 2016, with Smackdown moving from Syfy to USA.

It’s the go-home Raw before WCW Uncensored Extreme Rules, WWE’s last vestiges of the ECW reboot. The very concept of the Extreme Rules event leaves much to be desired: every match having a gimmick is oversaturation; there was an all-gimmick show just four months ago with TLC; and, in the era of PG, it’s difficult […]

What I want all you fat, internet sweathogs to do right now is keep the noise down while I take off my robe… Ravishing Rick Rude, one of the best heels in wrestling, died 16 years ago today. Rude was effective at his job of being a truly hateable character, and boy, did I hate […]

The match between Charlotte and Sasha Banks on the March 5 edition of NXT was no different than any other encounter the two have had in the past year–save one element. Just like their previous, recent encounters, Banks and Charlotte put on a contender for match of the night that showcased their respective in-ring acumen […]
