The first Survivor Series under the Triple H regime is set to be a game-changer. Not only has “The Game” eschewed brand warfare, but he has also made the move to integrate WarGames into the show. Fans are already excited about the prospects of gang warfare inside the steel structure, but what’s interesting is this is a homecoming of sorts for WarGames. As a stipulation, WarGames has always felt like a unique twist on Survivor Series, dating back to its […]

Although the United Kingdom has consistently been one of WWE’s biggest markets for decades, it’s been thirty years since the company staged a major show in the country. With there only being a few days until WWE brings Clash at the Castle to Wales’ Principality Stadium, thoughts turn to the last time the UK hosted a top WWE show – SummerSlam 1992. 1992 was a year of decline for the then-WWF in its home base of the United States. The […]

On this past week’s episode of Monday Night RAW, the leader of The Judgement Day, Edge, was booted out of his own faction by Damian Priest, Rhea Ripley and newcomer Finn Balor. Rumours suggest that this sudden change in management was down to Cody Rhodes’ untimely injury, leaving RAW without a top babyface for the forthcoming half-year, so ‘The Rated R Superstar’ was called back to the light side for the sake of giving the red brand a hero to […]

After the World Wide Wrestling Federation dropped a ‘W’ to become the WWF in 1979, Vince McMahon took his company first national and then global. At the same time, the World Wildlife Fund was using the same acronym and despite a legal agreement over use of the term, by 2002 the wrestling organisation was seen to have breached its terms. As a result, the World Wrestling Federation was no more. World Wrestling Entertainment (WWE) was born. In terms of television, […]

It’s always felt that, for a series where you can play out virtually any dream match with any stipulation, WWE 2K has been missing something, some mode that really makes it the de facto blend of wrestling wish fulfillment and fantasy booking in video game form. Universe Mode, Showcase and Towers have been fun, though nothing has really come close to the sheer immersion of the GM Modes from the Smackdown vs. Raw days. Now, with MyGM in WWE 2K22, […]

30 years on, the 1992 Royal Rumble is still the benchmark that WWE is trying to reach with their annual January spectacular. The brainchild of serial ideas man Pat Patterson, the Royal Rumble match was still fairly new when January 19, 1992 rolled around. Since it debuted on a house show in 1987, there had only been five Royal Rumble matches. That first event had met with mixed success, but a television special in January 1988 scored the WWF’s biggest […]

As SummerSlam 2021 ended, fans were left shellshocked at the return of Brock Lesnar, Viking ponytail and beard included. Reports were quickly released discussing whether it was in response to CM Punk debuting for All Elite Wrestling, but regardless, this was a big moment for WWE. Lesnar is reportedly available for at least eight matches, possibly as many as twelve in total, and one guaranteed match is seemingly against current WWE Universal Champion, Roman Reigns. With the match against Reigns […]

SummerSlam is one of the big four pay-per-views in WWE, a colossal moneymaker, and usually used as a kind of mid-season reset for larger plotlines, as well as a time to shake the belts up a bit. For fans, it’s a promise of big matches, a degree of spectacle, and usually offers a couple of big names, celebrities, or a surprise return. This year’s event checked almost all of those boxes with a stacked card, several good matches, a silly […]
