Perfect timing on Smackdown

Remembering when wrestling supercards were a Thanksgiving tradition

Thanksgiving for me during my teens and early 20s was more about dropkicks than drumsticks. Back then, there was always a major wrestling event on Thanksgiving night. Unfortunately, that tradition ended nearly 20 years ago. Thanksgiving episodes of Smackdown (before... Thanksgiving for m...

Cyber Sunday preview

Since some of the match-ups and all of the stipulations are not known until the last minute, Cyber Sunday is the toughest WWE pay-per-view to predict. But I’ll give it a shot. World heavyweight champion Chris Jericho vs. Batista: Fans will choose whether the guest referee is Steve Austin, Sh...

A star-studded Smackdown

The first episode of Smackdown on MyNetworkTV Friday night reminded me of baseball’s All-Star Game. The show featured top talent from all three WWE brands, but, like the All-Star Game, it came across as a glorified exhibition that had no... The first episode of Smackdown on MyNetworkTV Frid...

Meet TNA’s biggest star: Vince McMahon

I didn’t keep count, but it seemed to me that Vince McMahon’s name was mentioned more times on TNA Impact last night than Samoa Joe’s, Sting’s and Kurt Angle’s – combined.

Opinion: Q&A with Ted DiBiase

By the time Ted DiBiase came to WWE in 1987, he already had been a top guy in several territories and was regarded as one of the best workers in the business. It was his “Million Dollar Man” character in WWE, however, that made DiBiase a superstar. DiBiase brilliantly portrayed one of wrestlin...

Kane loses match, then his mind on Raw

In the past couple weeks, WWE has tried to create some new stars while also freshening up some established ones. Last night on Raw, the spotlight was put on Kane, a former main-eventer who had become somewhat stale as a mid-carder. As has been the case lately on Raw, something occurred that no...

Night of Champions thoughts

Well, WWE is certainly keeping things interesting. After last Monday’s draft resulted in Smackdown having two world champions and Raw having none, I thought it was a foregone conclusion that either Edge or Triple H would be dethroned at last night’s Night of Champions pay-per-view. Howe...

Opinion: Booker T. discusses Michael Hayes’ use of the N-word

During a conference call with Booker T. (who was subbing for Kevin Nash) yesterday, I asked him what his experience was like in WWE working with Smackdown head writer Michael Hayes, who was suspended 60 days in April for using a racial slur. Booker laughed, and then said: “I don’t know what’s...

Opinion: Q&A with Shawn Michaels
