by Draven Cage on 15 March 2010 Following in the footsteps of previous releases focusing on the WWE and Intercontinental Championships, this retrospective look back on the history of the World Heavyweight Championship, a title that, arguably, runs from the belt around the waist of Undertaker at the moment (this review was written pre-Elimination Chamber, so it may be on someone else by the time you read this), back to the early days of the NWA... some say even further back than that, all the way to the Frank Gotch/George Hackenschmidt at the turn of the century.

by Draven Cage on 3 March 2010 What do you think of when you hear Hell in a Cell? Does your mind automatically go back to June 1998 and the immortalised image of Mankind being hurled from the structure through the commentary table as Jim Ross makes the greatest call in pro-wrestling history? Or is your primary recollection that of the inaugural HiaC bout featuring Shawn Michaels and Undertaker tearing the house down in October of 1997?

by Dante Spears on 3 March 2010 If there's one thing from the WWE I always look forward to it's their CD releases. For the most part the CD's are beacons of excellent design containing an eclectic selection of music. What I love about the CD releases is that it gives lesser known bands a chance to showcase their talent and give them some exposure...

by Cassidy Haslett on 14 February 2010 In his first interview since his WWE release on January 17, Eric Alexander Pérez aka Eric Escobar lends his thoughts on his release, a potential future in TNA, his time in the WWE, and his future in the wrestling business; all in a Wrestling101.com exclusive interview...

by Draven Cage on 13 February 2010 Like the previous month's Extreme Rules, WWE tweaked the name of 2009's event, removing the words Great and American and leaving us with a PPV simply called The Bash. I actually prefer the new title (reasons for the alteration are rumoured, but the one I believe is to do with making the event more palatable to the overseas markets) and think is simply rolls better off the tongue...

by The Iron Jung on 4 February 2010 TNA have started 2010 with a bang. Their big January 4th Impact began a new era within the company, with legend Hulk Hogan at the helm. They welcomed back the likes of Scott Hall, Sean Waltman and Jeff Hardy and said hello to the former Val Venis and Mr Kennedy. Certainly the future looks to be an exciting one for wrestling’s number 2 organisation. So I thought what better way to get myself acquainted with the company than by attending their house show in Bournemouth last week...

by Draven Cage on 4 February 2010 The One Night Stand name was officially dropped for the first time, WWE deciding to go simply with Extreme Rules. In fairness, it's a more logical title, especially considering the origins of the previous name. As with 2008's event, all the matches on the card were fought under various stipulations, with only one of them being a stinker (literally as well as figuratively), one being passable and the rest varying from good to great to astounding...

by Stephen Ashfield on 30 January 2010 To begin the story of the Royal Rumble, we need really to go back to late 1987 and the continuing rise of the Vince McMahon empire at the expense of anyone who got in his way Standing between Vince and further success was Jim Crockett and the NWA. Starrcade had been their biggest show and not just in arenas but on closed circuit too. The 1987 event was due to be their biggest ever with the show being held in Chicago and a main event between Harley Race and Ric Flair for the NWA Heavyweight Title with over 200 cable companies agreeing to put the show on PPV...

by Draven Cage on 17 January 2010 With the recent and completely unexpected death of Eddie "Umaga" Fatu rocking the wrestling business, a familiar series of events unfolded. The usual fingers were pointed and the usual questions were asked; was it steroids? Was it recreational drugs? Is Vince McMahon to blame? Why is it just wrestlers who die before their time? And so on and on and on...

by Draven Cage on 11 January 2010 The first thing that went through my mind when this retrospective look at WCW was originally announced was how great a job WWE had done with The Rise & Fall of ECW. If they could put out such a polished and well-researched look back at a small-time promotion that reached heights no-one ever thought it could, just imagine what they could do with a promotion going back decades. The sad fact is that The Rise & Fall of WCW falls way, way, way short of its ECW equivalent... and that's a crying shame...
