Well, this is some unexpected and crappy news. ‘FAT’ FRANK IADEVIA, JERSEY ALL PRO WRESTLING PROMOTER, PASSES AWAY From what I’ve been reading, this took a lot of folks by surprise. If he was sick, it doesn’t seem like many people knew. I always enjoyed JAPW whenever I’d watch it. Some of the shows felt …
Before we get going, I offer my sincerest halfhearted apologies for things around here being so slow lately. Not only have Carin and I been making up for the last year sucking so badly by trying to make something good out of this one, but to be honest, nobody comes here this time of year …
WWE Rowdy Roddy Piper tribute. Somehow it’s been nearly 2 weeks already, but I’m still having trouble believing that Rowdy Roddy Piper is really gone.

It’s been a while, so let’s talk a little wrestling. 1. The Elimination Chamber match for the IC Title should main event the May 31st Elimination Chamber PPV. This is one of those little things with me, so yes. The show is called Elimination Chamber. If you’re going to name your show after a match …
WWE has been doing pay-per-view events for 30 years. That makes me feel very old. And unless I’m forgetting something, I’ve seen every one of those pay-per-views at least once.
