I don’t recall liking this show much. Of course it’s been years since I’ve seen it but 2005 wasn’t a standout year, in my opinion. You’ve got Cena and Batista who get the challenge of carrying the company and they … Continue reading

BUY THIS STUFF!

I’ve determined that I have too much wrestling merchandise. Well, it’s not that I have too much. It’s just I have plenty that I no longer need. Case in point, a bookcase of VHS tapes. I’ve got a few on … Continue reading
