Last night, while planning this article, (lets pretend we believe I plan for this), I realised that to write about wrestling, it might be an idea to actually watch some of the product. I had not watched Impact for two weeks, or last weeks episode of Raw, or even for that matter, had time to …

Under the Spotlight – Rusev
- By Adam O'Brien in Editorials, Slider, WWE
In all of my amazement at this year’s ArcadeCon in Dublin, I’ve somehow managed to let my plans to deliver an in-depth, thought-provoking article this week slip through my fingers, so instead I present you with this! If that’s not the best self-promotion you’ve ever seen, I don’t know what is. Welcome to the grandeur …

Under the Spotlight – Life After Seth
- By Adam O'Brien in Editorials, Slider, WWE
Hello…? … Is this thing on? Welcome back to ‘Under the Spotlight’, everybody! It’s been a while, just over a month to be specific, but we’re back in business and things shall remain this way at least until the end of the summer. While I was out living life and gallivanting around mainland Europe for …

Saturday Night’s Alright For Fighting
- By 0215ag3sxa in Slider, SLTD Wrestling
Looking for something to write about this week was easy. Raw was so brilliantly entertaining, I actually forgot I watched it. It was only half way through listening to the ever fantastic MFX podcast’s review of the show that I actually remembered watching it. I certainly remember watching Impact, and to be fair, there was …

Under the Spotlight – Sheamus
- By Adam O'Brien in Editorials, Slider, WWE
It’s been a while, huh? Well it feels like it has. I couldn’t write anything last week, because of other stuff going on in my life (some of the same stuff that I’ll be taking June off for), so I apologise for that. But I’m here today, and that’s all that matters. I was going …

Under the Spotlight – An Evening with Shawn Michaels
- By Adam O'Brien in Editorials, WWE
The history of professional wrestling is filled with hundreds upon hundreds of iconic, legendary individuals, each of whom have left their own respective impact on the industry. Hulk Hogan captivated crowds in the 80s with his patriotism, ‘Stone Cold’ Steve Austin dropped jaws in the Attitude Era with his rise against authority and Daniel Bryan …

They Do it Over There, But We Dont Do It Here
- By 0215ag3sxa in Editorials, Slider, TNA
Another week in wrestling, and once again, TNA steps into the role of WWE tribute band with some aplomb. I know I wrote this article last week, but if TNA can just copy stuff, well so can I. This weeks title is supposed to be ironic… Following the title win of Eric Young last week, …

Playing With Fire
- By 0215ag3sxa in Editorials, Slider, SLTD Wrestling, WWE
The events which took place in New Orleans at Wrestlemania 30 are sure to leave a lasting image in most, if not all wrestling fans around the world. The very image of the Undertaker lay down on the canvas whilst the Titan Tron showed the image “21-1” will forever last in our memories, that combined …

Under the Spotlight – Beasts, Kings and Warriors
- By Adam O'Brien in Editorials, Slider, WWE
A lot can happen in one week. Last time we saw each other, the streak was intact, the WWE World Heavyweight Championship was resting firmly on the shoulders of Randy Orton, AJ Lee was skipping around with the Divas title and the Ultimate Warrior was still with us, likely celebrating his Hall of Fame induction. …

Davie’s Dungeon: An Unforgettable Week
- By 0215ag3sxa in Editorials, Slider, WWE
Welcome to the dungeon! I can’t ever recall a week in which so many emotions have been felt in the world of wrestling. The week started off on an unbelievable high with the WWE Hall Of Fame ceremony where we witnessed the return of The Ultimate Warrior to the WWE, taking his rightful place …

You Dont Know What You Got Till It’s Gone
- By 0215ag3sxa in Editorials, Slider, WrestleMania
Wrestlemania eh? For someone who writes about wrestling, this was the PPV that just kept giving. From Hogan’s “Silverdome” to Cena winning, there’s plenty to moan about in there. But…there’s one thing the whole world is talking about. I’ve seen some major sporting shocks in my time – Tyson being knocked out, Manchester City …

WrestleMania XXX Revisited: YEStlemania!
- By 0215ag3sxa in Slider, WrestleMania
This was it. This was the reason that we’ll use to tell people why we watch wrestling. All the crap we sit through, all the mediocre stuff, all the political nonsense and boring people getting pushed, this makes it all worth it. Our guy main-evented WrestleMania and won the championship to close the show..,WrestleMania …
