It’s time once more for Wrestlemania the biggest professional wrestling and sports entertainment event for fans and performers that there is. This year the event is held in Orlando, the home of NXT – where a lot of the current roster of superstars got their start -and as usual (at least on paper) the card […]

Well the road to Wrestlemania continues for the WWE with the Raw-exclusive pay-per-view Fastlane, one of the companies lesser PPV’s… For most fans this is just the WWE spinning it’s wheels while waiting for the biggest event in the wrestling calendar. Taking place at the BMO Harris Bradley Center in Milwaukee, Wisconsin; Fastlane opens with […]
In my 25 years as a wrestling fan, Royal Rumble has always been one of my favourite annual events. The opportunity to see a bunch of your favourite WWE stars and the potential for surprises make it a night to keep an eye on. This year has some interesting matches, and the Rumble itself it […]
Prior to the event, during the TakeOver kick-off show, we found out the results of the NXT Awards, and so I figured I’d begin this article with the results of them. Match of the Year: DIY vs. The Revival (2 out of 3 Falls/TakeOver Toronto) Breakout Star of the Year: Peyton Royce & Billie Kay […]
WWE’s annual Extreme Rules PPV always finds itself full of gimmick matches such as table matches, ladder matches, street fights and things of that nature, so it’s no surprise that the 2016 version of Extreme Rules is also full of these types of matches. Sometimes it can result in overkill, other times it can result […]
So, the post-WrestleMania PPV, Payback, has happened (over a week ago now) and it was a night of good, bad and in-between but it was fresh and had a feel of something new, like WWE are making an effort to build new stars (finally). Results: Kick-Off Show: Kalisto retained his US Title against Ryback Kick-Off […]
It’s the final WWE pay-per-view (if you don’t count the network only Roadblock – which, to be fair, is more like a network special than PPV) before the biggest of them all, WrestleMania 32 – and the stakes couldn’t be higher! Roman Reigns, Dean Ambrose and Brock Lesnar battle it out in a triple-threat match […]
When you think about the Tables, Ladders and Chairs matches of the past, they have been about human wreckage and high spots. When the name was taken for the PPV event it lessened the appeal somewhat. Is WWE: TLC – Tables, Ladders & Chairs 2015 something different though? Surprisingly yes it is. Starting with the […]
Older wrestling fans remember Hell in a Cell fondly. It used to be the cage that saw the debut of Kane, that Mick Foley threw himself off (and through) all the time, and of course The Undertaker made iconic. Now, as we arrive at WWE’s Hell in a Cell 2015 it is just another name […]
To celebrate the release of Survivor Series 2015 – on Blu-ray and DVD on 25th January 2016 – we have a copy on Blu-ray to giveaway! As one of the “Big Four” PPVs, Survivor Series is always must-see, but this year’s is the most dramatic and prestigious in the event’s history. Fans will be gripped […]
Tables, Ladders and Chairs matches haven’t really been the same since the Attitude heyday of Edge & Christian and The Hardy Boys but still the WWE perserve with the pay per view each and every year. 2015 looks set to be an interesting PPV with – at least on paper – a few matches that […]
As we head into this years Survivor Series there’s not only the loss of the current WWE champion to deal with but also an apparent terrorist threat to deal with too. No wonder the WWE let Lillian Garcia blast out “The Star Spangled Banner” as loud and as bold as as she possibly could! That […]
WWE Night of Champions 2015 SHOULD be a celebration of the companies best. Though we know this is not how the WWE work, even if they want you to believe they do… We have to have much more drama in the matches than celebrate something as silly as “wrestling”. Joking aside, WWE Night of Champions 2015 had […]
Hell in a Cell is a pay per view that has spawned some classic WWE matches over the years. But since the end of the Attitude Era, and in particular the more “hardcore” style of wrestling, the idea of two men fighting in a cage seems to have lost steam within the company. Especially in […]
WWE’s Summerslam is one of the main pay-per-views of the year for WWE and is normally one of the biggest events of the year. With the inclusion of Arrow’s Stephen Amell and the return of The Undertaker Summerslam 2015 promised to be a good year. Starting off with Sheamus vs. Randy Orton these two are trustworthy […]
For the first time in over a decade, “The Beast Incarnate” Brock Lesnar returns to Japan to inflict damage and give his opponent Kofi Kingston a one-way ticket to Suplex City as part of the WWE PPV Beast in the East. NXT Champion Kevin Owens hopes to continue his dominant reign as champion when he […]
WWE Battleground 2015 promised big matches and the beginnings of a revolution. Whether it delivered that is to be seen, but with the card WWE had put together there was definitely promise of something special. With the lower card featuring Shaemus vs Randy Orton, Primetime Players vs. New Day and Roman Reigns vs. Bray Wyatt, […]
Money in the Bank has a history of being fun, especially the match itself which often tends to be chaotic. With WWE going through somewhat of a change for WWE: Money in the Bank 2015, it felt more refreshing and interesting. Especially with John Cena vs. Kevin Owens being one of the big fights of […]
There are plenty of rumours about why the Elimination Chamber has been removed from the normal pay-per-view list, but it did not stay away long. WWE: Elimination Chamber 2015 became a WWE Network special but here in the UK we also get a DVD release. Read on for my thoughts… The timing of the Elimination […]
Okay, so it’s time for one of those B-shows of the annual WWE calendar, Payback, a show that, on-paper, sounds okay, but isn’t offering too much in terms of fresh or exciting new feuds in my view. We’ll see how the matches go, shall we? The opening match of Payback sees Sheamus taking on Dolph […]
WrestleMania 31, the WWE’s biggest event of the year is over and we arrive at Extreme Rules, the pay per view that WWE claim is their time once a year to “go extreme”. The PG era has meant that “extreme” in the current WWE climate is very different to what it meant back in ECW […]
