A funny thing happened the other day. Well, I say it was funny. It wasn’t really. It wasn’t the ‘ha-ha’ kind of funny. It was the ‘that was unexpected and a little bit lame’ kind of funny. Also, it didn’t actually happen to me. It happened to someone else, thanks to something I wrote. …

Why the WWE Booking Model is Bad for Business
- By 0215ag3sxa in Slider, WWE
The date – August 20, 2012. It’s your typical Raw taping, a little dull if anything else. In the ring, a filler match to kill a little time before a planned feud-furthering showdown between Dolph Ziggler and Chris Jericho (remember when the WWE still cared about Dolph? I know, it seems like forever ago). …

Is it Good Times or Bad Times for Vince McMahon?
- By 0215ag3sxa in Slider, WWE
When the WWE officially announced the launch of the WWE Network, it was a major high point in the history of a company who has made a career of setting new trends in the professional wrestling industry.

Raw Revisited 3rd February: A New Face, A New Direction?
- By 0215ag3sxa in Slider, WWE
Well, that was a scorcher of a main-event wasn’t it? As much as we criticize Randy Orton most of the time, dude can really bring it when he wants to. It seems like Daniel Bryan is the guy that really brings it out of him. As a matter of fact, most, if not all, …

Punk, Bryan and Embarrassing Fans
- By 0215ag3sxa in Slider, WWE
Hello. Is this thing still working? And by ‘thing’ I mean ‘the internet.’ After the furious reaction to the Royal Rumble and then the bombshell news that CM Punk had walked out on WWE, I was worried the internet might have fully melted down under the sheer force of wrestling nerd fury. No? It’s …

The CM Punk Debate: Does Old Territory Wrestling Hold the Solution?
- By 0215ag3sxa in Slider, WWE
If you’re a wrestling fan and semi-active on the internet, you have no doubt noticed the news that’s taking the wrestling world by storm. No, not the Ziggler/Miz Battle for Ohio Match on Raw. I’m talking about CM Punk’s abrupt departure from the WWE. While the news may have come out of left field, …

Raw Revisited 27th January: The Return Of Car Sterio
- By 0215ag3sxa in Slider, WWE
I’m writing this on a Wednesday morning, so there are a few pre (and post) Raw things I want to get into before we get on with the usual below average revisit of Raw. Reports have surfaced this morning that CM Punk “took his ball and went home”. To the people who say that, …

***EDITOR’S NOTE – Grant is one of our newest writers. Make him feel welcome and follow him on Twitter @GrantCookDFC*** When an appeal went out on a well-known social network for new writers for SLTD, I thought why not give it a go? I like wrestling, I know how to write, so how hard …

TNA: We’re All Riding The Dixie Train
- By 0215ag3sxa in Slider
So, as my title says, we’re all on the Dixie train right now and, to be honest, I’m (for the most part) enjoying the route it’s taken us on. Yes, you could argue that it’s very similar to what’s happening in another organisation (do I really need to name them?), but for sheer entertainment …
