You Don’t Know Joe
Posted: June 26, 2017 by Bob Colling in UncategorizedTags: Brock Lesnar, Paul Heyman, Samoa Joe, WWE
Samoa Joe is the current number one contender for the WWE Universal Championship that is held by Brock Lesnar. Yet, nobody seems to take him as a serious contender to the title. Yeah, Roman Reigns appears to be the guy that WWE wants to be their champion, but Samoa Joe has been presented rather well in WWE to make him a reasonable threat to Brock Lesnar.
I’m not really sure if many people are aware of what Samoa Joe managed to accomplish outside of the WWE. At the end of his Impact Wrestling career he was stuck in the mid card but for a few years in Impact Wrestling, Samoa Joe was a force not to be messed with. Heck, Samoa Joe dominated competition in Ring of Honor before he made it to Impact Wrestling. Samoa Joe is more than capable of beating Brock Lesnar. Read the rest of this entry »

Posted: June 24, 2017 by Bob Colling in UncategorizedTags: Big Cass, Enzo, WWE
Over the last several weeks the WWE had been teasing Big Cass and Enzo breaking up on television. Since their arrival on the main roster from NXT the night after WrestleMania 32, Enzo and Big Cass were probably the most popular tag team going for the company. They had a catchy entrance and there were similarities to the New Age Outlaws, who were a popular tag team in the late 90s during the Attitude Era. Read the rest of this entry »
The Velveteen Dream: A Unique Experience

There is no question that WWE’s breakout network-exclusive NXT brand is largely responsible for introducing some of today’s brightest wrestling stars to the masses. From former world champions, indy darlings, and Japanese strikers, to some of the most colorful women, cruiserweights, and characters of the last decade, most have stepped through the NXT curtain well on their way to dazzle crowds on Monday Night Raw or Smackdown Live! on Tuesdays. Patrick Clark will prove to be no different… Except, there is something about him that is. The newly dubbed “Velveteen Dream” has not only grabbed my attention, but has been able to spark my interest in a product I no longer really go out of my way to watch. Read the rest of this entry »
