TLW: WrestleMania 25 Preview

Wow, it’s been a while since I wrote that little two word intro… Yes folks, those that care or remember, The Live Wire is back for a WrestleMania special! Some of you may even still be reading – as such, I claim the moral victory. A lot has happened since I put the keyboard away on a regular basis… names have risen to the top of the wrestling world, names have fallen from grace, and a few have gone to the great Squared Circle in the sky…

TLW: WWE WrestleMania 22 Predictions

Well hello. It’s been a while and yet still things stay the same. Triple H is in the main event at WrestleMania, and there are no Cruiserweights on the card either. Huzzah! OK, maybe the Cruiserweight deal is understandable, given that Gregory Helms is injured…but still. Hell, even the Smackdown tag champs can’t even get on the card… but I digress. See? Some things don’t change…On with the card…

TLW: The End

Well, hello. This is probably one of the hardest intro paragraphs I’ve had to write, yet it’s conversely one of the easiest. “Why”, I hear the assembled 30 odd people who still care cry… or at least think inwardly…

TLW: WWE Judgment Day 2004 Thoughts

Well that WAS Judgment Day, and for some it probably was a final judgment on them – if they couldn’t make it on to this card, why are they still hanging around the WWE? As I said, it wasn’t an awe-inspiring card, and the actual matches themselves could do nothing other than be better than they looked on paper… and for the best part, that’s how they turned out…

TLW: WWE Judgment Day 2004 Preview

Well, hello. Word of warning folks – I can’t be bothered with this PPV, this column, or pretty much anything to be honest… don’t expect positive happy-happy joy-joy thoughts to be overflowing this cup. With that in mind, let’s get it out of the way…

TLW: Laying The Smacketh Down

Well, hello. If chicken little tells you that the sky is fallin’ – even if it wasn’t would you still come crawling back again? I bet you would my friend… and that’s exactly the feeling I get right now – because it’s Live Wire time! Yeah, baby! Yes, and with that opening thankfully out of the way, let’s get to this week’s column – Smackdown. Smackdown has vanished down the toilet pan since the New Year, hasn’t it? Now, I like to try and be positive, despite what people think of me, so I haven’t really said a lot on the Smackdown situation. Until now…
