Will Ospreay: flying high along the edge of a hidden blade This is wrestling and the lines between what’s true, what’s reality and what’s neither is forever blurred.

John Cena’s retirement tour forces us to see the man behind the persona John Cena’s eventual retirement has crept ever closer over the last several years, but few could have presumed that final run would include a character turn. Whether you’re a long time supporter, fan, detractor or generally indifferent, the run on its own…

New column up in #JohnCena’s retirement, his turn and reactions to his promo from #WWERaw on Monday.

Sort of called it? 🤷🏻‍♂️

The Young Bucks Reveal Interesting News Regarding Original Plans For AEW Tag-Team Titles The Young Bucks have re-emerged, and did a new interview. The Young Bucks wrestle at this weekend’s Wrestle Dynasty show, and spoke with Tunnel Talk Pod to promote their match. During the interview they spoke about how creative changed a number of times…

The Young Bucks Reveal Interesting News Regarding Original Plans For AEW Tag-Team Titles

New column.

Anyone who outright writes off the purpose of this story is short-sighted. It has a point, maybe more than most recent AEW stories. The point of OC, White, Page, Cope, Cage & FTR being central highlights Mox’s point. People need to step up a part from ego. That’s where Allin comes in.

New column that went up a couple of days ago @wrestlingheadlines.com. Here I take a look at where NXT could be headed in 2025 should Giulia win, and altogether why I’ve become a fan over the last few years.

Saturday Night’s Main Event Showcase Needs to Create Its Own Moments, Not Just Rely on Nostalgia Three things got me into wrestling when I was very young: my Piper-loving dad who got me watching shows like Superstars and never stopped talking to me about legends like Bruno Sammartino and Johnny Valentine, Coliseum Video VHS releases which I’m pretty…

New column up on the Bloodline saga as they enter War Games tonight.

Moxley’s Pulping of Orange Cassidy The Darkest Hour Before Dawn This is war, and in that there’s a certainty that there will be sacrifices. They’re necessary, and in this AEW narrative where Jon Moxley and the Death Riders have waged an iron fisted revolution and unequivocal overthrow of the company’s power dynamics…

The site is on Blue Sky now, so go follow it. Also, now I don’t have to go get the link myself, which is a win.👍🏻

Anyway, I’m going to start being a little more active soon, but for now these are my thoughts on last night’s AEW Full Gear main event—the build, the match itself and the next steps.

NXT Women's Division Rebuild Being Done Correctly Other than in rare occasions NXT has been at its best when it's used as a vehicle to build toward the future. It's been an avenue for young grapplers and

I mean, someone said it farther down, but there’s a reason they picked Texas. I can’t imagine their commission has much oversight, care or sense. I have to hope if this had been in Nevada or New York it would have never got off the ground.

I’m just coming back on here, but I think you’ll find this place to be mostly calm. And not stupid. And probably fun.🤼‍♂️

Well, I mean, the nexus of power is located in multiple locations, so it’s only logical to need a car to get to places to fight said power. Ferrari shows you mean business.

Tryna fight the power but I need that new Ferrari

Bit by bit it feels like everyone is gradually coming over here, and that’s PRETTY cool.👍🏻
