First, let me state I’m not personally offended by Dean Ambrose bringing up Roman Reigns’s cancer in his scripted promos. But also, it doesn’t matter what I’m personally offended by, at least not in the […]
Due to Roman Reigns relinquishing the WWE Universal Title on Monday night in order to concentrate on his medical treatments for the recurrence of leukemia, WWE has taken a fresh look at the alignment of […]
Change for the better doesn’t happen if those working with a historically oppressive regime ostensibly to steer them in a better direction don’t set certain parameters and make it clear there is a line you […]
Roman Reigns is not a heel. Roman Reigns is a babyface by every traditional pro wrestling definition. What he is, more specifically, is a rejected babyface. I, frankly, find his comments to ESPN this week […]
The Roman Reigns Era hasn’t been deleted. It’s just been delayed until Apr. 27. The news of Brock Lesnar signing for another match – or more – this afternoon is no surprise. It had to […]
Ronda Rousey not only no-showed WWE Raw last night, she has been removed from the next two Raws and the original article announcing she would be on every Raw leading up to WrestleMania has been […]
Jonathan Coachman has been a major upgrade to Monday Night Raw’s commentary team. He has not, this week at least, been a helpful advocate for Roman Reigns on social media. He wrote on Twitter earlier […]

WWE’s announcement on Thursday that A.J. Styles would face Jinder Mahal for the WWE Title rather than face Rusev for a chance to join Team Smackdown was a jolt to expectations going into Survivor Series […]
In an article published by Vice today, Ultimate Warrior’s vile, bigoted, hateful, judgmental comments about a cancer victim, Hurricane Katrina victims, homosexual people, a woman defending a gay man, and even Martin Luther King Jr. […]
Last night’s big show-closing angle on Monday Night Raw is generating fierce debate among fans. Was it a cool buzz-generating angle or utter nonsense, or is it too soon to tell? For me, it’s utter […]
WWE ratings this year continue a downward trend that is very likely going to end up taking a huge chunk out of their massive TV rights fees on their next TV deal in a couple […]
I just posted highlights of a new interview with Sean “X-Pac” Waltman advocating that Roman Reigns being “heelish” is better than being officially turned heel and becoming an all-out heel. He, disappointingly, said “it’s not 1980” as […]
Joey Styles was fired by Gabe Sapolsky of EVOLVE, not because he wasn’t “P.C.,” but because he defied a crystal clear mandate made by his bosses not to bring politics into his commentary. If Styles […]
Two-thirds of respondents in our PWTorch Poll believe that having three Hell in a Cell matches on one PPV is “overkill” and “waters down” the concept. I agree. Last Monday WWE announced that besides Roman […]
On the season premiere of “Total Bellas” on Wednesday night on E!, John Cena was portrayed rather terribly. As a viewer, I was left wondering if he was really like this and thus totally unaware […]
Al Snow says wrestlers shouldn’t throw punches in his latest instructional video. I want to draw attention to this because I love what Al Snow has to say here. Not just about punches, but about […]

There is understandably some consternation that a brand split will be bad for fans and bad for WWE because it splits a “thin” roster in half, and because last time the brand split was executed […]
