		<description><![CDATA[Original post found at: www.IllegalForeignObject.com: If you follow my Twitter feed at all, it likely hasn’t taken you long to realize I’m a pretty big fan of Elijah Burke, aka The Pope, D’Angelo Dinero. His departure from the WWE, after what I considered a massive waste of talent on the part of the organization, drove me crazy. As such, I was thrilled when he debuted for TNA in 2009, figuring they’d seen how not to use him, and would not make the same mistakes.... <a href="http://www.madaboutwrestling.net/columns/elijah-burke-burial-of-a-wrestling-pope"><strong>[Continue Reading]</strong></a>]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Original post found at: www.illegalforeignobject.com I have been a wrestling fan for more than 25 years. To this day, even after having watched thousands of matches, I still feel exhilaration, happiness, sadness, hatred, even confusion when watching a wrestling show. One thing I no longer feel, however, is fear. One of the coolest things about growing up a wrestling fan in 80’s was the presence of so many classic ‘monsters’. With gruesome horror movies at their apex, pro wrestling fans invested emotionally in many... <a href="http://www.madaboutwrestling.net/columns/whats-become-of-the-pro-wrestling-monster"><strong>[Continue Reading]</strong></a>]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Original Post found at www.illegalforeignobject.com I am quite annoyed with how the Lord Tensai character has been received by much of the WWE fan base since his return. Tensai is the walking embodiment of an old school heel. He’s theatrical, a bruiser and his work looks legit. Had this character been around in 1987, he would have main evented WrestleMania against Hulk Hogan. In today’s WWE, the Lord Tensai character is having a hard time finding footing. Considering the massive level of success Matt... <a href="http://www.madaboutwrestling.net/columns/wwe-to-blame-for-fans-tepid-response-to-lord-tensai"><strong>[Continue Reading]</strong></a>]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Original post found at: www.illegalforeignobject.com Last Thursday on IMPACT!, Hulk Hogan made an announcement which, if carried out properly, could signal a positive change in TNA. In addition to announcing the creation of Open Fight Night, a vehicle for introducing new talent to the TNA fans each month via an “open challenge” format, Hogan also revealed new plans for the previously disrespected Television Title. The belt, he said, will now be defended each week, on TV.

		<description><![CDATA[Original post found at www.illegalforeignobject.com How much different would the pro wrestling landscape have looked in the mid-80’s had Verne Gagne not been so out of touch with not only his fanbase, but his employees? By the late 80’s, after years of declining interest, subpar rosters, and an inability to change with the times, the American Wrestling Association (AWA) was all but dead in the water, ultimately shutting down in 1991. But did it have to be that way?

He has, for the better part of his 25+ year career, said whatever has been on his mind. For better or for worse, that’s just Scott. Often hilarious, always controversial, Scott Steiner just flat doesn’t care. This last week the focus of his ire was pointed squarely at TNA, the company for whom he’s been employed for the better part of the last 6 years.

Before 7:30 I was an excited wrestling fan, glad to be in Orlando with my friends, enjoying company, food and, at 7 p.m., WrestleMania. I had been excited for the pay-per-view all week, looking at the card and thinking it could be the best card since WrestleMania X8. The national anthem by Lilian Garcia gave me chills.

The thing about it though, it’s not Kofi’s fault in the least. I lay the blame squarely at the feet of WWE’s almighty booking contingent, as it is they whom have pigeonholed the Ghana native into the smiling babyface role he’s held for his entire 4+ year run. The second Kingston debuted on ECW, he was over with the fans.

		<description><![CDATA[Original post found at www.illegalforeignobject.com Earlier in the week, a rumor began to circulate that WWE had notified its developmental territory, Florida Championship Wrestling, that it would be severing ties with the promotion. The rumor spread quickly, eventually growing to a level where WWE actually felt compelled to release a statement disputing the report. Triple H called the rumors, “absolutely not true”, and stated the system was going to be revamped, not shut down. If Triple H holds true to his word, an announcement... <a href="http://www.madaboutwrestling.net/columns/remaking-the-wwe-developmental-system"><strong>[Continue Reading]</strong></a>]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Evan Bourne, My name is Ryan Randall. I’m a freelance writer, a student, many things, but aside from the Colt Cabana-like intro, I’m a huge wrestling fan, thus why I write on this site. Aside from that I’ve followed your career from a distance. I knew of you for some time when you wrestled on the indies as Matt Sydal, and heard of your talents. Thanks to Youtube, I saw a couple of matches here and there, and enjoyed what I saw.

		<description><![CDATA[Original post found at www.illegalforeignobject.com One thing worth always remembering about professional wrestling is you never say never. Time and again we have seen instances, whether it was Hulk Hogan’s return to the WWE in 2002 or Bret Hart making amends with Vince McMahon and Shawn Michaels, where something you never thought you’d see, up and happened right before your very eyes. For many, especially those with knowledge of Vince McMahon’s personal feelings on undersized wrestlers, the return of the Cruiserweight Division to the... <a href="http://www.madaboutwrestling.net/columns/cruiserweight-division-returning-to-wwe"><strong>[Continue Reading]</strong></a>]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Since 2006, John Cena has gotten a nasty backlash from the a good portion of the fans, mostly the 18-34 male demographic. They&#8217;ve spewed every criticism towards him, from his inability to wrestle, the way he dresses, even the salute he makes before running down the ramp. Some criticisms have been valid, but most have just stemmed from Cena being a guy some love to hate. One complain that always had merit was his character. The happy-go-lucky guy that didn&#8217;t let anything bother him,... <a href="http://www.madaboutwrestling.net/columns/detractors-into-fans"><strong>[Continue Reading]</strong></a>]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Original post found at www.illegalforeignobject.com The Intercontinental Title, once synonymous with high work rate and a tool to showcase WWE’s top in-ring performer, has at least since the Monday Night Wars, become the default belt to throw on someone when you’ve wanted to get ‘em over with fans without having to do much for them in the way of storyline. Got a guy you want to get over but don’t wanna spend the man hours it takes to write ‘em a decent angle?

The Hulkster, with his patented clenched-jaw stare, looking up at Andre The Giant, a man long past his prime, but packaged perfectly as the ultimate Hogan-killing machine. Both Hulk Hogan and the WWF were at the height of of their collective powers, wrestling was a big as it had ever been, and I, 10 years old and insane for the spectacle, absolutely had to see the... <a href="http://www.madaboutwrestling.net/columns/hogan-vs-andre"><strong>[Continue Reading]</strong></a>]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Oops&#8230; Wrestling&#8217;s insider reports are many times accurate, but sometimes can go awry. The dirt sheets get a bad name, and rightfully so sometimes- they&#8217;re flat out wrong. This was the case this week when it was reported that ROH stopped wrestlers Adam Cole and The Briscoe Brothers from taking WWE deals. This contradicted the lasting stance ROH officials have had in terms of not getting in the way of letting talent go north. Last night Jay Briscoe, one-half of the Briscoe Brothers responded... <a href="http://www.madaboutwrestling.net/columns/internet-rumors-gone-wrong-t-shirts-and-a-plea"><strong>[Continue Reading]</strong></a>]]></description>

To hear some tell it, there’s just not much of anything worth viewing these days. Hulk Hogan is the biggest name in the history of the industry? Oh, well then, he sucks.
