It's Time For WWE To Save Kurt Angle From Himself. Again.
On Saturday night, I went to a show from House of Glory, one of the local independent wrestling promotions in New York City. It was a really fun show until an accident in the semifinal match, when Chris Seaton of the New York Wrecking Krew tag team broke his femur in a freak accident; he landed wron...
Kurt Angle’s Return To Wrestling Was A Beautiful Disaster
WWE was in a bind going into last night’s Tables, Ladders and Chairs pay-per-view. A contagious viral illness is going through the Raw locker room. Bray Wyatt was pulled from his match against Finn Balor. Roman Reigns was pulled from the main event, scuttling the Shield reunion....

Brock Lesnar's Matches Keep Getting Harder To Watch
For the last few years, Brock Lesnar has undoubtedly been the WWE performer who feels most like a “star” every time he appears. His character is protected more than any other, rarely put in compromising positions. He’s only on TV in the weeks leading up to his big matches, preventing him from being ...
Cesaro Busted His Two Front Teeth On The Ringpost
The slingshot-into-the-ringpost spot is a staple of professional wrestling. I associate it mostly with Mr. Perfect, but a ton of people do it.

Tonight’s Thursday Night Football game between the Texans and Bengals was, with a few exceptions, your typical awful weeknight NFL action. The Aussie rules-style final play, and its equally down-under level game-ending tackle by J.J. Watt, though, deserved our closer attention....
Kevin Owens Busted 72-Year-Old Vince McMahon’s Head Open

John Cena And Roman Reigns Broke The Fourth Wall, Cut A Great Promo
There’s so much talking on WWE Raw. It always opens with a promo and sometimes they just talk talk talk. For every great Paul Heyman promo there are two segments that just drone on and on and on. It happens. The show’s three hours! What else are you going to fill time with, wrestling?...
