WWE Classics Freeview: Royal Rumble 1997 Review
This PPV shows that the WWF was full steam ahead on the Attitude Era by 1997. There was a lot of brawling and rough bumps throughout all the night’s matches. Race and sexuality were the basis of the majority of the angles on the card. There isn’t any blood or female nudity, but those are the only two Attitude staples that aren’t a focus. The show isn’t the strongest, but the Royal Rumble itself is … Read entire article »

WWE Presents: The Very Best of WCW Monday Nitro DVD Set
The title of the DVD is misleading. Sure, some of the best moments/matches from WCW Monday Nitro are on this DVD, but really it’s just a History of Nitro DVD. The people on the cover are the ones you’ll see in every match, so if you don’t enjoy their work, you know what to do. I feel like this is all a part of Vince’s Anit-WCW lifestyle. He wanted this to represent what was wrong … Read entire article »
