The Thunderdome gave WWE this Roman Reigns, will they keep him?
For all intents and purposes, WWE exited its “Thunderdome Era” last night. The “Hell In A Cell” pay-per-view was the last one that will take place in the company’s outsized and glorified TV studio, as next month’s “Money In The Bank” will take place in Fort Worth before a live crowd. There are still...

WWE misses another chance to release the right people
I could spend hours dissecting the ways in which WWE failed the very talented people that it released yesterday. But that’s usually the story whenever the company announces a raft of releases. There’s always one or two that most fans will be in disbelief at — both for their release and the lack of u...
Bianca Belair and Sasha Banks did the thing
The main event of Wrestlemania has had a bit of a rough streak the past few years. That could simply be a product of cramming Brock Lesnar and his wavering dedication and attention span in there repeatedly. But it could also be that it’s just really hard for that one match to thread all the needles ...

AEW wins the Wednesday Night Wars with WWE, if they ever really started
It’s been in the water for some time, but WWE made it official today. They’re moving NXT from Wednesdays to Tuesdays two weeks from now, just after Wrestlemania. What they didn’t announce is that they’re essentially giving up on the “Wednesday Night War” against AEW on TNT. WWE would never admit def...

It was a great weekend for terrible people in wrestling
It is often said that WWE does its best booking when backed into a corner. That is, whether through injuries to performers or sudden waves of popularity or other factors, when the company has to change or invent stories on the fly is when it tends to produce its best work. Daniel Bryan is a perfect ...
The NCAA doesn’t know what it’s doing; also, see Connor McDavid's insane no-look pass
As the NCAA begins the process of sorting out their tribute-to-Hoosiers championship tournament, it’s becoming pretty obvious that they’re making it up as they go. Which we already knew, but it’s always a little jarring to see a multi-billion dollar “non-profit” give the shrug emoji to genuine quest...

Is WWE putting a title on Matt Riddle ignorance, direct retaliation, or something in between?
WWE isn’t known for its sensitivity, and at times is quite proud of that, and that was clearly evident on Sunday night during the company’s “Elimination Chamber” pay-per-view event. Matt Riddle won the United States Championship, and to say the timing is odd would be scaling a mountain of a euphemis...
The wall between AEW and NJPW has come down, maybe, but what’s next?
