Of all the sites on the internet, this is one.
Yes, I know there are a lot of things to hate about many of them, but I’m going to keep it to just one thing that’s bugging me right now after having just watched Smackdown. Please, wrestlers, stop talking about how good your matches are going to be. As a fan trying to suspend my …

“Haven’t done one of these in a long ass time,” he said yet again. 1. Rusev is the most underutilized man on the WWE roster. No. A pretty hard no, actually. Picking the most underutilized person on the roster is basically impossible, because there are so many of them. He’s not winning all of his …
