Note from Art: Way back in 2012, before I’d written word one on WrestleCrap, I started a blog called How Much Does This Guy Weigh? where, among other things, I reviewed every episode of Monday Night Raw from the beginning. It’s been nearly six years, but I’m happy to say that the reviews are back and will appear right here Continue Reading...

WWF Magazine, January 1994 It may make a lot of folks angry, but I have a confession to make: I always kinda despised the official WWF Magazine. I guess that isn’t a big shock, as I grew up on the likes of the Apter mags, Pro Wrestling Illustrated, The Wrestler, Inside Wrestling. As a fan during the late 80’s, this was where Continue Reading...

AEW, 2019-2020 A common complaint about AEW’s early days is that it relied too much on Being the Elite for its storytelling.

Or, most importantly: Why the hell are these Continue Reading...

WWE – May 08, 2006 I know what you’re thinking as you see the image above – a Kane vs. Big Show match, even a bad one, can’t really be WrestleCRAP, can it? Even if they blew a bunch of spots or whatever, these two are seasoned pros and surely a random encounter on a random Raw shouldn’t really classify as Continue Reading...
