Throwing in the Towel: The WWE Draft Fallout

The WWE’s annual draft. A heavily hyped 3-hour behemoth of a show. An event that rears its ugly, bulbous head once per annum, looming high overhead like a wayward zeppelin. And once it’s passed by, once the dust has settled, and the shadows have dispersed, is it safe to come out? Is it okay to emerge from your little shelter and gaze back into the grappling world?

Of course it is.

Post-draft, nothing has changed, or to express another cliché, in this column chock-full of them, the more things change, the more they stay the same…

Throwing in the Towel: 25 Great WrestleMania Matches

So, I thought I’d do something a little different. Instead of merely counting down 25 great WrestleMania matches as the title of this column suggests (do you know how hard that is to condense down?), I’m going to have a look at what were, for my money, 25 bloody marvellous bouts from the history of wrestling’s biggest event that were untarnished by a gimmick stipulation.

Yep, that means no ladders, or chairs… and no Hell in a Cell’s (sorry Bossman). Instead, just matches that revolved around athletes getting in there, and rolling around like animals…though I may break a couple of my own rules here and there.

Roundtable #23 - Does Batista’s injury make WWE’s WrestleMania plans any easier?

Welcome to the latest Roundtable discussion here at iFight365.com where this week, we’re asking the question: Does Batista’s injury make WWE’s plans for WrestleMania any easier?

Mark Bright: Undoubtedly, Batista’s injury had made WWE’s WrestleMania plans easier, and also more interesting. That’s not a knock on Big Dave, but the fact is that he’s a top star and by removing him from the picture it means they have less marquee players to fit onto the show without having to relegate somebody to a match unfit for them.
