John Cena, Sheamus and the 10 Not-so-Funny ‘Funny Guys’ in WWE
On July - 23 - 2013
There isn't an episode of Monday Night Raw or SmackDown that goes by without WWE making viewers legitimately laugh out loud (LOL).
Somewhat awkwardly, it's not usually when WWE writers and/or performers have scripted a joke that we find ourselves laughing.
Our chuckles tend to come out of WWE's overly goofy, downright cartoonish notion of what a comedic bit is.
Exhibit A: The serpentine sock on Santino's right arm.
Exhibit B: Most anything Hornswoggle has ever said or done, but especially the "hilarious" reveal that Hornswoggle was the Anonymous Raw General Manager.
While calling this supposedly comedic material lame would be an understatement, there's no ...
CM Punk vs. Paul Heyman and 7 Matches for WWE Survivor Series 2013
On July - 8 - 2013

On December - 4 - 2012
-Raw kicks off with Kane’s pyro, followed by a dramatic beat...followed by Kane’s music. Not sure what that pause is for. We know who’s coming, bros. -Anyway, Team Hell No is out for action. Couldn’t they just be Hell No? Same goes for the now derailed Team Rhodes Scholars. -The Shield is way up in a skybox. Kane grabs a microphone and calls the FCW triad on being real tough from afar. That makes sense; they attacked Kane at the end of last week’s show. -Prime Time Players are out to job to the champs. At first, I typed “Impact ...
The Rock, Triple H and the Top 10 Spinebusters in WWE and TNA
On July - 6 - 2012
It is simple in design and relatively safe to execute, yet it often looks as brutal as its name sounds.The spinebuster. It's been one of my favorite wrestling maneuvers ever since Arn Anderson planted the likes of Bret Hart and Shawn Michaels with it back in the late '80s. The move is a game-changer that can come from virtually anywhere in a moment's notice.It has proven to be effective as a transitional, finishing and desperation move. There have been many incarnations of the spinebuster across the globe, but for the purposes of this list, I have narrowed the field just slightly.A spinebuster only ...
