You mean former U.S. Olympic Wrestling Team Assistant Coach The Iron Sheik? Read more
No, it’s not Brian or anyone that people would know from online wrestling stuff. Read more
No, Ian would definitely not do that; he’s a total pro. Read more
Alvarez may be best known for his crazy wars, but he’s a really sharp technical fighter, and it took the best version of him we’ve ever seen to beat Gaethje. Rewatch that fight when you get a chance: It’s an absolutely brilliant performance. Read more
If anything, slightly late. It should have been called when he slumped into the fence with his arms limp at his sides. Read more
Not sure if this comment edited properly; it should say “boycotting ROH is more likely to hurt the talent than hurt Sinclair in the grand scheme of things.” Read more
It’s an interesting argument and I’m not sure where exactly I fall. Read more
That’s what I’m thinking, too, though you would expect him to have a better answer ready. Read more

Any reason Jay Lethal wasn’t mentioned among the “signature stars” list? Read more
This was a mistake. Read more
I felt bad for everyone who was used to cities where Uber and Lyft are always cheaper and didn’t bother to check out what a regular cab company would cost. The company that the hotel next to the civic center was calling was giving their usual flat rate for the airport. Read more
Maybe I shouldn’t have put “real” in quotes, but the point was that the demographic studies in question are all comparing WWE/pro wrestling to traditional competitive sports. I’m not someone who’s gonna argue the sport/not a sport thing past when people complain that it’s covered here. Usually, this one from five…
You lose points for not including some variation of “and Andre died not long thereafter,” though. (For those who don’t know, Hogan injected that into his version of WrestleMania III for years even though Andre died six years later.) Read more
