WWE Elimination Chamber 2013 (DVD review)

WWE Elimination Chamber 2013 (DVD review)

The annual February pay-per-view offering from WWE has, historically, been somewhat of a mixed bag. Lumped in between the Royal Rumble and WrestleMania, it typically is an event that is designed to bolster buy rates and increase interest for the company’s biggest show of the year, by providing a platform to further feuds en route to the big showdowns at the ‘Granddaddy of Them All’.   Occasionally, though, it does much for than that, by providing memories and moments that have gone down in wrestling’s history books. While it may have gone through several different names, February’s pay-per-view has, in the past,…

WWE The Best of Raw and Smackdown 2012 (DVD review)

And, whilst many of these culminated in huge PPV encounters, it was Raw and Smackdown that played host to many of the standout moments of the last year.  ‘The Best of Raw and Smackdown 2012′, available to buy now on DVD and Blu-Ray from WWEDVD.co.uk, distils twelve months down to three discs, cutting most of the wheat from the chaff and leaving us with a glorious collection of vignettes, interviews and matches that showcase a lot of what is…

Ballroom Blitz: How New Jersey put the ‘fan’ into WWE’s Fandango

Image source: WWE.com.

WRESTLEMANIA WEEKEND is officially over and despite a plethora of superstars gracing the New York/New Jersey area there is only one name on the lips of the fans. And that man’s name is Fandango! Somewhere, Vince McMahon is smiling. When he gave the go ahead to the Fandango character and his eventual début match against Chris Jericho at WrestleMania 29, it’s fair to say that a lot of people questioned his faith in the gimmick. We’ve seen plenty of reports over the last few weeks of Vince being really keen to push the former Johnny Curtis‘ new ballroom dance persona,…

WWE Best Pay-Per-View Matches 2012 (DVD review)

WWE Best Pay-Per-View Matches 2012 (DVD review)

The year 2012 offered up many memories and landmark moments for fans of World Wrestling Entertainment. The return of Brock Lesnar. A ‘Once in a Lifetime’ showdown.  The longest WWE championship reign of the modern era. And, yes, the debut of Ryback. While Raw had a big role to play in many or these memories, WWE’s twelve pay-per-view events also offered a great deal of action and big clashes – so it’s little wonder that Fremantle Media has released ‘WWE Best Pay-Per-View Matches 2012′, a three-disc compilation showcasing some of the strongest bouts from the year’s big shows. It’s available to…

CM_Punk_Bio_0003

IT’S OVER. Last night, at the 2013 Royal Rumble, the longest WWE Championship reign in the past 25 years came to an end, as CM Punk stared at the ceiling for the returning ‘Great One’, The Rock, in a controversial yet unsurprising climax to the first pay-per-view of the year.
