During his first stint in World Wrestling Entertainment, few wrestlers proved to be a thorn in the side of Brock Lesnar more than the World's Largest Athlete, the Big Show. At 7'0'', and nearly 500 pounds, the giant was the one man who could stand toe-to-toe and match Lesnar's physicality. He was able to throw Lesnar around the ring with relative ease, capturing the attention of the audience and making any match between the two must-see television. They feuded for the better part of eight months, leading to some very memorable matches. Their best, arguably, came in May 2003 at the Judgment ...

Batista's comeback to WWE back on the January 20 edition of Monday Night Raw began well enough.  His return had been advertised on TV for several weeks leading ...

WWE invaded the United Kingdom for the May 19 episode of Raw, and the biggest question that needed answering was just whom Kane would light on fire on this, his least favorite day of the year. In all seriousness, the focus of Monday's show was on Daniel Bryan, the WWE World Heavyweight Championship and just what would happen following his neck surgery this past Thursday. Stephanie McMahon was, of course, the first person to address the situation, and her solution did not sit well with the vocal British fans. Evolution continued its battle with The Shield, as Seth Rollins was set up for ...

Creativity and patience are the keys to tackling the WWE World Heavyweight Championship situation at WWE Payback 2014 and beyond. It's expected that the company will strip Daniel Bryan of the title, leaving a major hole at the top of the main event scene. The two best options on handling that void include planting seeds WWE can sow later on while entertaining in the present. It looked as if Bryan would face Kane in a rematch from Extreme Rules, when the champ told fans that he was set to undergo neck surgery. Suddenly, not only was the Payback clash in jeopardy, but the ...

When examining and analyzing the development of The Shield, each of the three men appears to have had his own moment in the spotlight. Dean Ambrose won singles gold early on during The Shield's first few months on the main roster and quickly became the man whom many people were talking about. Then there was the upturn in form for Roman Reigns around the back end of last year—kicked off by his dominant performance at Survivor Series. He backed that up at the Royal Rumble with a record-breaking performance, leaving everyone certain he should split from the group. Thankfully though, that didn't happen, ...

Coming out of Monday's WWE business outlook conference call for investors, the most interesting answer came from one of the few times Vince McMahon spoke up (recaps at ProWrestling.net and Wrestling Inc).  When asked if perhaps the company should have waited on launching the network in case it had a negative effect on its TV deal negotiations, Vince answered yes.  If the WWE waited, though, it most likely would have had to hold out a whole year since its plan revolved around WrestleMania. It's hard for me to disagree: Regardless of what reason you want to give (less uncertainty for Wall Street ...
