Shouldn’t all of the matches on wrestling preshows have time limits? If what I’m watching is supposed to be a legitimate contest, how does anyone know that it’s for sure going to be over by the top of the hour when the actual event is scheduled to start? What happens if one day you send …

Angel Garza, Pretend Playboy
Apologies if this is a totally out of date question, but operation Steve catches up on all the wrestling is still rolling its way through February. Why is Angel Garza’s gimmick on Raw that he’s some kind of irresistible ladies man when not long ago on NXT, which airs on the same channel as Raw …
WWE Wine. Yes, The H In Whine Is Missing ON Purpose
I am extremely disappointed in everyone involved in this new WWE Wines endeavor. How do you put out this product and not call it “World Riesling Entertainment”? Complete branding negligence is what that is.
Blah Talk
These Raw Talk and Talking Smack shows that WWE does. Who are they for? Who out there, when Raw in particular is over, wants more? By the time I get through the experience I’ve generally about had my fill of nonsensical yip yap and time filling gum flapping. I never watch anything live anymore, and …
Pro-Wrestling Favorability Survey
For once, let’s take a survey not related to accessibility. This one’s about wrestling, specifically how you feel about and access programming from various companies. This survey is being conducted by Brandon Thurston (bhthurston@gmail.com), an independent researcher, writer, pro-wrestler, and sometimes business consultant who creates content associated with wrestlenomics.com. He plans to use the results …
WWE Going From Two Groups Of Incoherent People To One
WWE CONSOLIDATES CREATIVE TEAM, BRUCE PRICHARD TO LEAD This makes sense. Both teams ultimately answered to Vince McMahon anyway, plus I’ve lost count of how many times I’ve watched nearly identical stories play themselves out at the same time on shows that are supposed to be separate and distinct. Why pay two sets of people …

Wrestler’s Court
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QH5FKsjrhyo Not sure how big the target audience is for segments like this, but I definitely enjoyed it. Then again I’m not sure how big the audience is for Impact in general these days, so maybe it doesn’t matter. As good as the show is, the company is pretty far off of most people’s radars …
One Of The Greatest Things Impact Has Ever Done
My god, the throwback show they did back around American Thanksgiving was so so so so so so so so fantastically hilarious and fun. If you hated it because everybody was out of their normal characters, the whole thing was super ridiculous and you felt like it made a mockery of wrestling I understand, but …

A Free Idea For WWE
If we’re going to keep doing this knock on my door stuff with Aleister Black, we’re going to need a months long storyline wherein somebody repeatedly plays Nicky Nicky nine doors on him until it looks like a Roadrunner cartoon as Black gets more and more desperate to catch the guy. You’re welcome.
I Do A Stupid Thing And Regret It Almost Immediately. It’s The Wrestling Notepad
A note from present day me before we get going here. When I decided to let myself get months behind on all wrestling so that I could catch up on older shows I’d been putting off because WWE takes up so much time every week, there was a part of me that thought dude, you’re …
