It's my birthday, I can take time off if I want to
We’re rolling into Wrestlemania season for the next little while (no, we didn’t change the schedule. Wrestlemania is still in March. We plan this stuff, you know) so I’m going to be busy trying to figure out what you’ll hate in the moment but appreciate in three-five years and look back on incredibly fondly in 10 while you totally fail to realize that you’re still...
Nowinski didn't even go to Harvard
So Chris Nowinski is firing at us because Cade died the other week and it’s our fault, even though he wasn’t even working for us anymore. You can watch the video from a few days ago down further on the blog, but it doesn’t matter what he says, because he’s wrong. Chris Nowinski is wrong about everything, which is exactly what we sent to the Atlantic as an editorial...
WatchAdd Nowinski to the list of guys not allowed on the highlight reel.

I just want to put this right here to remind you all one day when a UFC guy gets arrested for assault.
I've been doing this for a year
I started blogging for you marktards almost a year ago. Your life is different because of me. Your life is better.
If we had kept Darren Young around Cena much...
You remember that movie Southland Tales where the world ended because the two guys who were the same person but from different universes got too close to one another? You know, the one movie where the Rock showed any acting chops whatsoever? Well, Darren Young is John Cena, but from another universe. We tempted fate last night by having them in the same ring at the same time, but never again. We...

So HHH calls me...
And he says “Hey, pops. What happened last night? I thought the plan was I was gonna be the seventh man and destroy this Nexus bullshit all by myself?”
I cough for a second, and say, “Well hunter, that’s great, but I’m in the entertainment business.”
It’s been a while since I’ve said that, and I have to say, it felt pretty great.
“Yeah,...

Fuck You, Vince
People are saying this is somehow my fault, that somehow Lance’s death is on my head.
Well.
Look, I’m as sad as anyone else to hear that Lance passed. Am I surprised, though? No, not really. As much as Shawn Michaels will defend Lance, he never loved the business. He was here because wrestling pays you a lot of money and gives you a lot of free time to waste on abusing substances.

This is the first Summerslam worth buying
No, seriously. This is the first Summerslam in history where it hasn’t been a giant ripoff.
Oh, you didn’t realize Summerslam was always a giant ripoff? Hmm. Really? It should have been obvious by now. Every single Summerslam is based around one of three things:
A) A rematch from Wrestlemania.
B) The first match in a long feud, oftentimes being the worst contest in the set.
C) A...

What is the deal with the audio mixes on some of the relatively recent DVDs? Check out the Dusty, Mr. Perfect, HHH: KoK, and Jake Roberts DVDs and tell me the music is supposed to be mixed that loudly -it just sounds odd to me.

Is it even worth suing over?
I mean, sure, we’ve got them by the balls. But if TNA wants to put on an ECW show without calling it ECW (even though they totally did a few times), use guys with names we own, rip off our idea entirely, and generally completely disrespect the idea of intellectual property and copyright, BUT, if nobody is around to hear it, did it actually happen?
They did their best to cover up the fact...

A Better Raw
A Better Raw is an experiment. I didn’t know what it would do, so I put it out there. Quite a few people gave me thoughts and comments, but they weren’t the ones I was looking for. I wanted people to think about our flagship show in a different way. But I should have listened to Hunter, who’s always right about this sort of stuff. After he watched the first one, he told me that...

A Better Raw, episode 2
I do want to thank everyone for the feedback, both good and bad. I’m working on the choppiness, and the timing issues. Obviously, the show has kinks to work out. But that’s sort of the point, right now. Monday Night Raw has been done the same way for fourteen years. Of course it’s a smooth product. Shaking things up, applying dramaturgical processes, and generally experimenting...
