Hi Dave,I'm not usually a WWE apologist, but I do have to question your ranting on the Smackdown title match at Survivor Series. To me it looked like Triple H and Kozlov had a purposefully boring match to make the fans want Jeff Hardy more.They stalled on the mat a lot did bearhugs and such. It did...

Thumbs Down Best Match: Team HBK vs. Team JBL Worst Match: Triple H vs. Vladimir Kozlov (that was worst match of the year level bad) The Edge return was well done, and the best thing on the show. The storyline with Jeff Hardy, and using his real life issues for a wrestling storyline was desperate...

Hi Dave, I'd give the PPV a thumbs in the middle with it being close to a thumbs down. I don't think they delivered on this one. Crowd at the theatre was way down as I suspected due to the Grey Cup. Best Match-Team Orton vs Team Batista Worst Match-a triple threat Undertaker vs Big Show, HHH vs Koslo...

Well, another day, another column.All this off the back of several WWE releases in the last week or two.

Hey Dave, I'm watching BFG and it just strikes me that as much as its been said, it needs to keep being said until it's fixed, and that is Russo must go. Not be demoted, but he must be gone from the company. Their biggest ppv and the two main events have an old WCW icon, a guy who is still associated wi...

Hell of a fight last night – with a hell of memorable knockout (watched it at a hooters) and it’s so easy to see the difference in audience expectation when people watch UFC as compared to WWE. It’s a competition thing, unpredictability, etc. It’s the one thing WWE booking will NEVER allow to h...
