It's hard to believe we're only a few days away from WrestleMania 36 — which will be aired on two nights instead of one. WrestleMania 36 will be a historical pay per view for several reasons. Lack of audience, it's been pre-taped, and it's two nights as opposed to one. Today though, let's look back […]
WWE has fans from every generation out there. The ongoing stories and thrills keep fans old and new still involved in the franchise. Some of the best parts of the WWE now is when the legends return for the show. Of course, a lot of these classic wrestlers have gotten a lot older now but […]

It started at the WWE Royal Rumble and then rumbled all the way to Atlanta, Georgia: NXT Champion Tommaso Ciampa, NXT North American Champion Johnny Gargano, and The Undisputed Era guru Adam Cole in a six-man smackdown with Aleister Black, Ricochet, and "Worlds Collide" Champion Velveteen Dream – with WWE Hall of Famer Shawn "The Heartbreak Kid" Michaels on hand […]
Ahh, the WWE's Royal Rumble! Every January, there is at least one thing all wrestling fans can agree on: we love us some Rumble. 30 men and 30 women (sometimes 40!) come to the ring in timed intervals one at a time for the ultimate shot at immortality: main eventing the granddaddy of them all, […]

WWE Mattel collectors live in a world where the pegs are constantly full of John Cena, Roman Reigns, and Seth Rollins figures. Plenty of kids love gobbling those figures up, but us older collectors love when the design team over there gives us some of the giants of wrestling. While they have not been doing […]
Sadly, it looks like Shawn Michaels' return to WWE was a short-lived one, as the 53-year-old Heartbreak Kid says he's returning to his regular life after a one-off return from retirement at WWE Crown Jewel last week. Michaels retired in 2010 after a WrestleMania match with The Undertaker, and he seemed like one of the […]
As if WWE's lucrative 10-year partnership with the government of Saudi Arabia weren't questionable enough already, the company is getting heat worse than Roman Reigns in a smarky city following the assassination of Washington Post journalist Jamal Khashoggi, with the Saudi government allegedly behind the killing. Criticism of WWE's involvement with the Saudi's has included the country's […]
WWE collectors…we are a curious bunch. We will buy the same wrestlers over and over again, as some attires remind us of our favorite matches, some are wonderful examples of how far we have come from the LJN and Hasbro days. And some are all about the packaging. The new Gamestop exclusive WWE RetroFest Elite […]
Mattel's WWE line went retro last year, and collectors have loved every second of it.

They will look to continue that trend this year, with even more Elites, Basics, Battle Packs, Entrance Greats, and more. Two of those exclusive lines will be on shelves at Walmart and […]
It's a fortuitous coincidence that WWE superstar The Miz lost the Intercontinental Championship to Roman Reigns at RAW last Monday. As it turns out, he's got to start filming a movie soon, so he needed to take some time off anyway. WWE and Sony will partner to bring the long anticipate sequel to the sequel […]
Arrow star Stephen Amell took Ring of Honor by storm last night at their "Survival of the Fittest" Night 1 event. Amell is no stranger to the ring. He is a huge fan, even making many appearances on WWE programming. He won a match at SummerSlam 2015, as well. Last night, however, he became an […]
Marty Jannetty is a former WWE Intercontinental Champion, former WWE Tag Team Champion with 1-2-3 Kid, and two-time AWA tag team champion as part of the legendary duo with Shawn Michaels, The Rockers.
