Now this is what I'm talking about - a night of just straight-forward good wrestling (mostly), a complete lack of BS and screwiness (mostly), and a big event feel that was enhanced by the final two...
Well, you can't say that January 2006 wasn't an eventful month for WWE. From Edge becoming the first man to ever cash in a Money in the Bank briefcase, using it to win the WWE Championship from a...
Was the 2005 Royal Rumble the best Rumble ever? Overall, it's in the discussion, with an excellent Rumble match following an undercard where three of the four matches rated well above average. But...
Two men have won the Royal Rumble match from the number one position, including Shawn Michaels. For obvious reasons, WWE has no desire to fill in the remainder of that thought, leaving empty the part...
If you think today's WWE product is a cesspool of creative bankruptcy and spiteful booking, take a gander at what the company was offering back in 2003. SmackDown, outside of Kurt Angle and Brock...
In the days before streaming services and YouTube, there were two ways to acquire songs - buy the damn CDs at your local retailer (as if), or illegally acquire them from something like Napster or...
Very seldom do you see three WWE pay-per-views in a row that are each worth all the acclaim that can be mustered, but in early 2001, such a run of brilliance was achieved. That stretch culminated with...
After a string of lacklustre Rumbles, average Rumbles, moderately-dumb Rumbles, and disappointing Rumbles, we reach what is the best Royal Rumble event in close to a decade. The 2000 Royal Rumble...

Onward with the turnaround. By back-jumping many of his Royal Rumble foes in the preceding weeks, Stone Cold Steve Austin reinforced what most had perceived for a number of weeks and months, that he...
Though the 2017 event would also take place in the Alamodome, WWE was in a much different place when they first brought the circus to town 20 years earlier. The 1997 Royal Rumble was presented by a...
Over the preceding four years, Shawn Michaels had grown up as a singles star before the dwindling WWE audience. Once demonstrating his controlled athletics and impeccable timing as a womanizing cad,...
Oh, 1995 WWE - how you even got a nameless 11-year-old future list-writer to almost give up on the company. One cartoony gimmick after another was trotted out before diminishing crowds, while crowds...
Well, you can't say that the 1994 Royal Rumble wasn't memorable. When a wrestling event depicts two men winning a match that only one person can win, a wrestler attacking his brother's injured leg,...
The 1993 Royal Rumble would feature five matches that weren't exactly ambiguous. Only one semi-screwy finish in the batch, as WWE (in uncertain times with a rapidly-morphing roster) needed to...
