You have to come up with cohesive, adult storylines. The only way that your typical fans are going to give TNA a shot is if there are deep, tight storylines that grow from a glimmer to a full-blown finale on your PPV show. I can’t [...]
King Booker Abdicates The Throne
6 Comments Published by J. Botter September 11th, 2007 in Wrestling MiscellanyThis morning, I was able to verify with a friend in WWE what many had been speaking about in hushed tones over the past few weeks: Booker Huffman, better known as King Booker to his minions, has quit the company.

We’re a mere few hours away from finding out who The Bastard Son Of Vincent McMahon is, and I’ve just got a few points I wanted to make on the subject:
1. If the bastard son, as Matthew Michaels has so hilariously proposed to me several times via instant messenger, ends up being Hornswoggle, I will [...]

We’ve been gone for an extended period of time, but the problems causing you to not be able to comment was discovered and fix tonight, so The Wrestling Blog is BACK.
1. Yves Edwards vs. Joe Stevenson: Yves is very, very fast. He also bled EVERYWHERE. This was as much blood as I’ve ever seen in a UFC ring; we’re talking 0.8 Muta here. The cut was high on his head, so they let the fight continue, but the Doctor stopped it before round three because [...]
Ken has talked a little bit on here about how he wants to see ECW cancelled once the 12 week contract with Sci-Fi is up this summer. I used to feel the same way, but I’m starting to see things differently now.
Here’s ten reasons why:
Wow, sorry about the past few days. We got the DB errors fixed, so you can leave comments again. I think everything is finally solid, so we shouldn’t experience any more issues (knock on wood knock on wood). Thanks for your patience while we worked out the problems, and I would like to say that [...]
