Who in the hell would play with them? This has been a pretty good week for wrestling, so I suppose the European […]
The Netflix original The Politician is a fascinating look into the possible consequences of unhealthy obsessions with ambition and determination which is something not many TV shows look into. Too many times we see a determined character who risks friendships, relationships, family etc to achieve the thing they crave and they achieve their dreams making […]
I’ve been clamouring for a talk-show style show in WWE for some time. A show like a late-night chat program where wrestlers are interviewed and the current product is discussed in a playfully casual manner. Finally, we’ve got just that. The Bump, which aired this week on the WWE Network, is hosted by WWE backstage […]
I have been waiting for a new Jeff Dunham comedy special for the longest time and finally Beside Himself was put on Netflix, a special for which I could not be more excited.

Photo Shoot is another one of those easy-breezy but entertaining original programs on the WWE Network. It’s simple in concept and execution. You take a WWE talent, man or woman, legend or current member of the roster, and you sit them down in front of television and show them a bunch of photographs from their […]

WWE Untold is a WWE Network original series that I’ve been thoroughly enjoying since it began. Discussing topics such as “The Failed Relaunch of WCW”, “The Second Coming of ECW”, “How Eddie Guerrero Became a SmackDown Legend” and more, it delves into these subjects in a fun snapshot manner and talks, using clips, backstage footage […]
Welcome to this week’s Impact Wrestling review, right here on Nerdly. I’m Nathan Favel and we have a wedding at the climax of the show. Yeah, a wedding. Who would pay to see a wrestler get married when you could pay to see them fight some-one? Okay, let’s get to the marriage thing so I […]

Adrian Street is a British Wrestling legend, and following the fairly recent NXT UK TakeOver: Cardiff, we saw a documentary pop up on the WWE Network about the man himself titled “Imagine What I Could Do To You”. This isn’t the longest of documentary specials yet it still covers enough to highlight Street and tell […]
Sasha Banks, for those of you who may not follow current WWE, is one of the best in-ring female talents in the world today. She’s an accomplished in-ring worker and has held numerous titles within WWE and even headlined Pay Per View events (specifically a terrific Hell in a Cell main event against Charlotte Flair). […]
Welcome to this week’s NXT review, right here on Nerdly. I’m Nathan Favel and I am not a Hot Child In The City. Nick Gilder will be so disappointed. Okay, this is the second two-hour NXT on USA, which means we only get the first hour on USA. Don’t worry. We’ve got both hours of […]
