Sunday January 24th 2016 is the Royal Rumble as we set in stone the “road to Wrestlemania” with Fastlane looming around the corner from here. Sunday pits Roman Reigns going in as champion, a la Hulk Hogan as he did circa 1990 and 1991. Will history repeat itself? Time will tell and wrestling fans will …

However, it’s also been a huge reality check for WWE. The reasons for …

RAW Roundup: Jan 11th
- By 0215ag3sxa in Editorials, Slider, WWE
Monday Night Raw emanated from New Orleans Louisiana, which also featured Saints quarterback Drew Brees. Tonight’s RAW also featured Brock as a special attraction and left towards the end of the rather pedestrian and hokey main-event which did little to establish credibility as the “overcoming” Roman Reigns, and did little to establish a stand-out rival …

- By Tom Robinson in Editorials, Slider, WWE
2015 was a year of ups and downs for WWE. While Wrestlemania 31 was a huge success and NXT has been home to tremendous programming all year long, there’s been a lot of flaws and set backs which has really hurt professional wrestling as a whole. Believe it or not, all of professional wrestling relies …
