We are into March and it is only a little more than a month until WrestleMania 31 in California. Last week was one of the times when I felt like I’d wasted time watching RAW, so I was hoping the Road to WrestleMania might take a more interesting and entertaining turn tonight, and I’m glad […]
After what was a rather bland and unexciting PPV at Fastlane, WWE continue to hype the upcoming 31st WrestleMania event, an event in which many of the matches seem to be either confirmed, or all but confirmed with strong reasons to think they’ll happen. On the card, it seems we will see Roman Reigns in […]
The Road to WrestleMania continues, and we make a final PPV stop at the first WWE Fastlane PPV. When we leave this show tonight we should have a clearer view of what the big show in March will have in store for us, and hopefully we’ll have seen some interesting and entertaining matches and angles […]
WWE Survivor Series 2014 was an event that showed it was time for a product refresh. This was probably why the big story for the pay-per-view was Vince McMahon pitting Team Authority vs Team Cena in battle with the tease that we would see the downfall of Triple H and Stephanie McMahon… surely that couldn’t […]
The go-home show on the lead up to WWE’s February PPV, Fast Lane, should be a show that offers plenty of incentive to watch the main special event. This RAW should leave fans with every intention to watch Fast Lane and continue on the Road to WrestleMania. Of course, these go-home shows are hit and […]

Last Novembers UK stay at Liverpool for the WWE came at a particularly tumultuous time leading up to Survivor Series. The Authority had just been told the week prior by Mr McMahon that if they lose then they lose their power, so they continue to set about building the most dominant team they can after […]
We continue on the Road to WrestleMania 31 here with the second RAW of February 2015. Last week we saw Daniel Bryan beat Seth Rollins in order to gain a shot at Roman Reigns at WWE Fast Lane, with the winner of that match going to WrestleMania to face Brock Lesnar for the WWE World […]
Another year over in the WWE Universe (sick of that phrase yet?), which means another triple disc DVD set compiling the best moments of Raw and SmackDown from the last year, all of which you watch in full again on the WWE Network for only £9.99 a month (how about that one?). From Occupy Raw […]
A day after the controversial and disappointing Royal Rumble and we learn that the live Monday Night RAW show from Hartford, Connecticut has been cancelled due to the historic storm that hit the North-west of the US, causing roadways to be closed and thus causing WWE to cancel.

Watching the recap that comes […]
So here we are, only a week away from the official launch of the Road to WrestleMania, the 2015 Royal Rumble. The Rumble is one of my personal favourite wrestling shows annually, and has been since I started watching professional wrestling 22 years ago. Let’s see if this episode of RAW, being promoted as a […]
I remember when the Hell in a Cell match truly shocked fans, when Mick Foley risked his body to make the match memorable and something truly special. Now with WWE: Hell in a Cell 2014 the pay-per-view features minimal use of the cage and for the most point is one of the lesser events of […]
I am a Girls fan and proud of it, though with Girls: The Complete Third Season I have become somewhat annoyed, but I still remain a fan. The characters are reliably flaky and pretentious, but there is a strange reliability in that for the audience and more importantly there are some episodes in this season […]
When a season is proclaimed as the final of a series there are certain freedoms it is given, and high expectations from its audience.
