The wrestling world and the world in general, has crawled to a halt for the 2020 must see matches. What better time to look back and see what wondrous gems and masterpieces have taken place this year. And with that, I give to you my 2020 Must-See Matches So Far! In these strange and worrying [...]
In today’s fast-paced professional wrestling industry, authenticity isn’t uncommon. Many athletes adopt personas crafted by marketing teams. Thekla—the “Toxic Spider”—arrived in All Elite Wrestling with her own ink, her own scars, and a defiant, punk-rock ethos that couldn’t be manufactured. Her journey from the underground cellars of Vienna to the pinnacle of American wrestling shows [...]
During the week of August 17th to 21st, 2020, after his valiant battle with health and financial issues, the wrestling world lost James ‘Kamala’ Harris. The Cauliflower Alley Club and, more recently, the kind people at GoFundMe-type accounts set up for his family, who donated badly-needed financial aid, including fellow wrestlers, promoters, fans, and more [...]

These men (and we’re positive they were always men) displayed such talent in wrestling that they were able to make a living by competing. They were wrestlers, as a profession. That’s why they’re called professional wrestlers, [...]
People from all over the globe still miss his famous ATB House of Chinese Food and Ribs restaurant in the Atlanta area, not far from his longtime home. Born Larry Shreve in Ontario, he transformed and crafted his wrestling character into a sort of barbaric Frankenstein monster come to life. The magazine company I’ve written [...]
Some of wrestling’s stranger matches start with a genuine disagreement rather than a scripted angle, including the match between Will Ospreay and Vader. That’s exactly what happened in the summer of 2016, when a decades-long WCW and WWF legend picked a public fight with a 23-year-old British high-flyer over what a wrestling match is even [...]
