So, Hell in a Cell.Wasnt really looking forward to this one, but hey i'm paying for the Network every month, might as well make use of it. The show wasn't bad, not at all, but i thought most of it was pretty predictable, and i would've liked it better if the champ was on the show. I liked the Ziggler vs Cesaro and Miz vs Sheamus matches(DAMIEN MIZDOW!), its always good seeing the Dust brothers against the Usos in a tag team match, and Orton vs Cena was predictable but pretty good.But the best match for me was Ambrose vs Rollins, those guys just have a great chemistry together.Sure the ending was pretty weird, but i think it may result in a great new feud for Ambrose. Yea all in all it was a good show. Loved Ziggler/Ceasaro, can't wait to see where they go w/Rusev and like his storyline. Enjoyed the Cena/Orton match, as Cena is underrated as a performer, because, well, he sucks lol, loved the ending match although I was disappointed of the lack of "pop" Ambrose got, you'd expect the roof to explode but just isn't yet. Loved bringing Bray(as he's my favorite guy right now) back but the hologram was hokey. Can't wait to see where that feud goes though.

Ziggler Cesaro and Miz Sheamus was good. Thought the Ambrose Rollins Hell in a Cell was decent until the ending, which for me ruined the whole event. Was so anti climatic I just felt annoyed that I watched it.

Aw yeah, they have added more than fourty ECW Hardcore TV episodes on the Network today! I really love those shows, great storytelling(especially Dreamer/Raven!), great hardcore matches and great technical wrestling. Can't wait to watch all the shows they've just added!

I get it for the old school stuff, WCCW, ECW, etc. the Monday Night Wars has been decent too. Can't wait for them to release some Crockett, Mid-South, & Florida stuff too

Yep definitely worth it, if you ask me.You get a whole lot for that monthly fee, both old and new stuff.And they keep adding stuff, like the ECW shows i mentioned...and NXT!...and PPVs!
In other wrestling/comic news, CM Punk is apparently writing a story for Marvel in Thor Annual #1.One of my favourite wrestlers, but is he a good writer?That remains to be seen.

So, just watched Survivor Series, and man, i just loved this show!
I didn't like everything about it(Slater Gator vs Rose and the bunny, the Divas matches)but what i did like was amazing.
The Tag Team Championship match was great(new champs!man, Mizdow was over).I liked Ambrose vs Wyatt, even though i thought the ending was meh.But i especially loved the main event, which i did not expect at all.It told a good story, i liked the action, and i loved the twists. I thought it was great how they let Ziggler be the star, instead of Cena.I really hope they continue his push, the guy absolutely deserves it, in my opinion.And FINALLY Sting appeared.I heard the rumors before the show that he might show up, and even though i've never been his biggest fan i still freaked out when i saw him, mainly because it was his first appearance on a WWE show EVER!.Great stuff!

I just bought the 10th Anniversary edition of The Death of WCW by Bryan Alvarez and R.D. Reynolds. For those that may not have read this absolute classic, it tells about the rise and decline of World Championship Wrestling on a week-by-week basis from 1996 to 2001, and this edition has been expanded with new information and pictures, including what TNA is currently doing wrong as well. Did anybody read the original at all?

I highly enjoyed the Steve Austin podcast with Vince on the Network.Didn't think much of it before i watched it, but i was surprised by what was discussed on this show.Stone Cold was on point, in my opinion.He asked a lot of questions that i was interested in myself.Vince dodged a question here or there but for the most part he answered them.Like the CM Punk situation(Art of Wrestling podcast with Punk from last week is definitely worth a listen too), Randy Savage in the Hall of Fame, Brock Lesnar not being on a lot of Raw and PPVs, etc.
In my opinion they should do stuff like this show(and the ECW Exposed show from a couple of weeks ago)more often on the Network.Just one guy interviewing the other guy, and just shooting the shit, so to speak.

I've listened to the Punk podcast, and to be honest it's pretty much everything everyone knew about WWE in the first place. still keep going back for more though, lol. Has anyone else been watching Lucha Underground? That's been awesome, the matches have been putting WWE to shame.

Has anyone else been watching Lucha Underground? That's been awesome, the matches have been putting WWE to shame. I listened to Colt's podcast w/ Punk, and Austin's w/ McMahon, and Punk came across as being very whiny and bitter. He referred to "what would Harley (Race) do" several times but what Harley would do, is put his big boy pants on, Lance that place on his back himself, tape his knees and elbow up and kicked somebody in their teeth. THEN he would take everybody back to his place & cook them dinner (Harley's cookouts are famous in lore).im glad that McMahon, Jericho, & the others have taken the high road. & unfortunately I don't get Del Rey, so not yet but I hear good things. I watch ROH a every Sunday though

I watch ROH a every Sunday though I personally only thought the part where he complained about they way he was booked some times might have come off as a bit whiny.Bitter?Yeah i do agree with that, most of it was bitter. As for the health issues, i have to agree with him, if you have some kind of lump on your back that's beginning to worry you and the WWE doctor isn't taking it serious and isn't doing anything about it, and you later find out from another doctor that its a serious staph infection and you could have died from it(his words, not mine)wouldn't you be pissed?I would.That's not whiny, in my opinion. I'm not saying i agreed on everything he talked about on last week's and this week's podcast(which i just listened to)but i did agree with that stuff.

Now that i'm thinking of this week's AOW podcast, at the end Punk mentions Jason Aaron and being a fan of his series Scalped, which i thought was pretty awesome to hear, since i also loved that book.That is all...
