WrestleMania 27 – The Morning After

By On April 4, 2011 · Leave a Comment · In Commentary, Professional Wrestling, Rants

WrestleMania 27 is in the books.  While Pip, my bro and I had an absolute BLAST building this year’s Beeramid (pics here) I have to say the show was pretty lackluster.  It took a good 24 minutes after the show started for the first match to get underway… that’s just WAY too long in [...]

Top 10 WrestleMania Matches

By On April 13, 2009 · 2 Comments · In The Tops

WrestleMania 25 is just recently in the books.  It wasn’t great but there were a couple of REALLY good matches.  WrestleMania weekend for me always means going back and reliving some of those great matches from past events.  It’s rare that this list is modified, but thanks to the Dead Man and Mr. [...]
