Last week, I watched Ric Flair cry on my television screen for three straight days. He cried at the WWE Hall of Fame Ceremony last Saturday night. He wept as Shawn Michaels uttered the now infamous line: “I’m sorry….I love you.” And he ...

Another week, another pissed off John Pollock. And, once again, he has every right to be.

If you plan to watch one wrestling event this year this should probably be it. The Super Bowl of wrestling, the grand daddy of 'em all...blah blah blah. By now you've heard it all.

We all heard the news that Vince McMahon purchased WCW one fateful Friday in March of 2001 but it was on this date seven years ago that it was all set it stone. The final episode of WCW Nitro aired on TNT and when the telecast opened with Mr. McMahon ...

Want to hear a fired up John Pollock? Just ask him about Ric Flair's retirement.
You can't really blame The Prodigy since it's safe to say that regardless of whether Flair and HBK tear down the Citrus Bowl this Sunday this angle has been a major disappointment for all residents of ...
