WWE Summerslam 2019: DVD

Summerslam 2019 WWE Madman There was some good, bad and ugly here which is how it goes with WWE pay-per-view events, how it’s always been really – but certainly in recent years the idea of a classic card with very little in the way of filler seems a distant memory. And this, the 32nd iteration […]

WWE: Wrestlemania 33

Wrestlemania 33 WWE WWE.com The flagship event – “Superbowl of wrestling”, etc – is always a calendar-event; for the 33rd time that Wrestlemania has occurred it was a long, rugged set of matches, not without botched spots or weird booking; not without some flatout head-scratchers, but also – the look and feel of it as […]

WWE: Elimination Chamber 2017

Elimination Chamber 2017 WWE WWE.com This year’s Elimination Chamber event took too long to get going. The whole first half crawled by, the big bore being a desperate attempt to make anyone care more than they already don’t about the Tag Team Championship. Things started off fairly decently with the first of three women’s division […]

WWE: TLC – Tables, Ladders & Chairs 2016

TLC – Tables, Ladders & Chairs 2016 WWE WWE.com In the penultimate PPV-event card of the year for WWE, TLC really delivered. A set of strong matches, storylines furthered, no giant shockers, no botched-beyond-repair finishes, no over-booked shenanigans…well, you be the judge there…but a solid three-hour slug-fest of fun and fighting with some pretty wonderful […]

WWE: No Mercy 2016

No Mercy 2016 WWE WWE.com A pretty decent card for No Mercy – very good in fact. Made all the more impressive by the fact that the PPV event opened with the main event – a triple threat match between Dean Ambrose, John Cena and AJ Styles. A big call – but the three athletes […]

WWE Best of RAW & SmackDown 2015: DVD

Best of RAW & SmackDown 2015 WWE Madman As with the recently released best of 2015’s PPV matches, I found The Best of RAW  & Smackdown 2015 very useful and interesting. I’m a lapsed fan, I don’t watch the TV shows at all, I check in with the product via the DVDs and occasionally read […]

WWE Best Pay-Per-View Matches 2015: DVD

Best Pay-Per-View Matches 2015 WWE Madman A perfect thing for the lapsed fan like myself, here’s a three-disc-set highlighting the very best matches from the year’s pay-per-view events on the WWE calendar. There are match introductions, but really it’s about the bouts – so it’s into it with the very first “Match of the Year” […]
