I started doing a yearly recap last year. During the past year, I’ve found myself referring to that post quite a few times so I figured I’d do it again this year. Got something you want me to cover in 2012? Drop me a line and I’ll see what I can do!

I just got done watching Thursday night’s Impact Wrestling. One of my favorite wrestling podcasts/websites, The FTW Podcast always gives their picks for upcoming PPVs. As you know, TNA is having their flagship PPV this weekend called Bound For Glory. If you’re not familiar with TNA or this particular PPV it’s the most [...]
I’ve had the idea for this post for quite a while now and I’m finally getting around to actually writing it. I’m not quite sure where its headed, but I’m guessing it’s going to be a bit of a rant. For those readers that aren’t in the mood to listen to me bitch about what’s [...]
WrestleMania 27 is just a few days away and just as in many previous years there is a “celebrity” on the card. I’ve got celebrity in quotes there cause personally I don’t consider Nicole “Snooki” Polizzi from MTV’s Jersey Shore a celebrity. That said, most of the known universe (and certainly much of the WWE [...]
These types of lists typically come out at the beginning of the year. I’m all for giving convention the middle finger so I’m doing it in the day after St. Patrick’s Day. Got a problem with that? Part of why I keep this blog is as some sort of “outlet” for my creative juices. [...]
Event: WrestleMania IX
Date: April 4, 1993
Venue: Caesars Palace (Las Vegas, Nevada)
Attendance: 16,891
Gorilla Monsoon on the mic for this outdoor event at Caesars Palace. They’re referring to it as “the world’s largest toga party”. I’m sure that’s supposed to be clever, but it comes across and being completely lame. [...]
Event: WrestleMania VIII
Date: April 5, 1992
Venue: Hoosier Dome ( Indianapolis, Indiana)
Attendance: 65,167
This show was billed as having a “double main event” which rarely (if ever) works out. I believe that this is the first Mania event that I watched live on PPV. We get Gorilla and Bobby [...]
Event: WrestleMania VII

Venue: Los Angeles Memorial Sports Arena (Los Angeles, California)
Attendance: 16,158
At WrestleMania VI, it was announced that this event would be held at the LA Memorial Coliseum. Between WM VI and now, the venue was changed to the Sports Arena. According to the WWF [...]
Event: WrestleMania VI
Date: April 1, 1990
Venue: SkyDome (Toronto, Ontario)
Attendance: 67,287
From the very beginning of this DVD you know you’re in for something special. The intro is a voice over by Vince REALLY turning it on. Images of a celestial Hogan and Warrior are shown and Vince booms about [...]
Event: WrestleMania V

Venue: Trump Plaza (Atlantic City, New Jersey)
Attendance: 18,946
For the second year in a row, WrestleMania is being held at the Trump Plaza. This is also the second event in the anthology that goes to two DVDs. After a WrestleMania IV card [...]
