Art imitating life is always a powerful formula for professional wrestling. It appeals to all fans, even if some fans don't realize it. Some fans are so connected with the Internet and social media that they realize something in the television storyline is following along closely with real life. Others are casual fans consuming the product only when they see it on television. They might not realize how reality-based the storyline they see is, but chances are it's an entertaining story because it has such an organic feel and the entertainment is keeping the fans happy. It follows the same ...

Regarding the wrestling business, Eric Bischoff said it best: Controversy creates cash.The WWE has been a master in the field of controversy over the years, and the company’s latest run-in with political analyst Glenn Beck (h/t New York Post) is the perfect way to create a stir without going beyond the programming’s PG rating. Beck was angry because Jack Swagger and new manager Zeb Colter adopted a xenophobic gimmick that a few very-vocal conservatives found hit too close to home and was "demonizing the Tea Party." That kind of reach into the political spectrum is the mainstream attention the WWE ...

Putting the WWE’s two biggest stars in the ring for the main event seems like a wise move, but fans will not be able to shake the feeling that a fresh, new storyline could have been explored to create a more exciting main event.  The Rock and John Cena certainly command plenty of star power, but the company has no shortage of talent to work with today. Recycling an old matchup from last year’s WrestleMania event was ultimately the wrong move. The contest does reflect a safe decision. Cena and The Rock have all the qualities necessary to be a captivating ...

Randy Orton is one of the most dangerous men in the WWE. He's taken the business by storm since his debut in 2002, becoming a legend killer and a member of one of the greatest factions of all time, Evolution. Yes, Orton has done so much that it's really no surprise that he finds himself in big matches and big feuds over and over. The WWE's Apex Predator is so successful and dominant that some think his act in the WWE is becoming a bit stale. If you're one of those people, then this is for you.Here are seven fun facts about Mr. ...

John Cena may be the No. 1 contender for the WWE Championship at WrestleMania 29. But CM Punk has to be the No. 1 contender for the WWE Championship after WrestleMania 29. Punk’s match with Cena on Raw Monday night cemented that. The latest battle in the Cena-Punk war proved to be the best between them so far. And if Cena goes on to win the WWE Championship at WrestleMania 29 as many expect will happen, then we can expect to see more where that came from as the year progresses. Now I know there are some out there who ...

A babyface or heel turn can revitalise the career of a pro wrestler, and from Daniel Bryan to Big Show, WWE has taken a much bolder stance in recent times in committing to these decisions. Reports often surface in regard to wrestler X becoming a fan favourite or wrestler Y developing an antagonistic, arrogant streak, and with two high profile superstars in Alberto Del Rio and The Miz both becoming fully-fledged faces recently, it is not unfeasible to envisage more occurring in the near future. With several wrestlers lacking direction in the company right now—from Ryback all the way to future WWE ...

Ever since The Shield debuted as a unit at Survivor Series, they have made life miserable for Ryback. Dean Ambrose, Seth Rollins and Roman Reigns have gotten the better of Ryback each and every time they have gotten involved with him, but allowing Ryback to settle the score would be a mistake on the WWE's part. Ryback's momentum reached a high point prior to Hell in a Cell last year where he challenged CM Punk for the WWE Championship. Ryback's rise was meteoric to say the least and it almost seemed as though the WWE was pushing things along too quickly, ...

As WrestleMania XXIX draws closer, time is running out on the WWE when it comes to putting together the official card. As of right now, the only matches that we know for sure are The Rock vs. John Cena and Alberto Del Rio vs. Jack Swagger, but several more will be added in the coming weeks, and unfortunately, there are some superstars who will be passed over.WrestleMania is obviously the biggest show of the year and it is also the longest as it lasts for four hours rather than the usual three. That does allow for a few more matches ...
