WWE Survivor Series 2011 PPV Review thumbnail

By Jared Silberkleit - After delivering very forgettable, and fairly uneventful PPV offerings for the past couple months, the WWE returned to Madison Square Garden for Survivor Series in an effort to regenerate some buzz. The show was based around the in-ring return of The Rock and it got every bit the reaction you’d expect it [...]

WWE Hell in a Cell 2011 PPV Review thumbnail

By Jared Silberkleit - Though certainly a marked improvement over Night of Champions, Hell in a Cell was a fairly weak PPV offering from WWE. The company appears to have lost some steam after a hot summer and seems to be going through a very stale period at the moment. Aside from the main event none [...]

WWE Night of Champions 2011 PPV Review thumbnail

By Jared Silberkleit - Despite a recent hot streak on PPV as well as some buzz on television, WWE delivered easily one of the worst PPVs of 2011 with Night of Champions. Most of card featured matches that simply weren’t PPV quality and there was a lot of bad booking throughout the night. Much of the [...]

TNA No Surrender 2011 PPV Review thumbnail

By Jared Silberkleit - The frustrating trend of very pedestrian, uneventful PPV outings continued for TNA with No Surrender. Once again, fans received a night of mostly average-at-best, dull, and TV quality wrestling, with nothing particularly memorable at all. One would think that TNA would try to up the ante a bit to generate some interest [...]

WWE SummerSlam 2011 PPV Review thumbnail

By Jared Silberkleit - On the heels of an outstanding Money in the Bank, WWE hit another home run with a great SummerSlam. This was easily the best SummerSlam since 2002 and featured one of the best double main events in WWE history. The undercard had a couple solid matches and flowed well, but the world [...]

Does Loss To Dan Henderson Spell the End for Fedor Emalianenko? thumbnail

Perhaps Fedor Emalianenko should have retired following his February loss to “Bigfoot” Silva. But the big Russian came back and faced Dan Henderson at the Strikeforce MMA card this past Saturday evening in Illinois, hoping to snap a two-fight losing streak. It was not to happen, as Henderson knocked out Fedor at 4:12 of the [...]

WWE Over the Limit 2011 PPV Review thumbnail

By Jared Silberkleit – Much like TNA Sacrifice last week, WWE Over the Limit 2011 was a mostly filler PPV that wasn’t worth the price at all. Most of the show featured very weak matches that seemed better suited for free television and the main event was one of the most ridiculous (and boring) matches [...]

WWE Extreme Rules 2011 PPV Review thumbnail

By Jared Silberkleit – After a very disappointing Wrestlemania XXVII, WWE got right back on track with a very impressive Extreme Rules. The PPV had strong wrestling all-around, the important matches all got enough time to deliver, and the show overall was fun, easy to sit through, and flowed well. A perhaps tad-bit-too-much amount of [...]

WWE Wrestlemania XXVII PPV Review thumbnail

By Jared Silberkleit – Wrestlemania XXVII could best be summed up as a colossal disappointment. After WWE started the year off hot with a very good Royal Rumble and an excellent Elimination Chamber PPV, the road to the Grandest Stage of Them All ended with a crash and burn. Apart from a brilliant performance from [...]
