Ed’s Perspective: Is There Anything Like The Entrance of The Undertaker?
Ok, so I’m watching RAW and live tweeting with our very own Vanessa, but I just wanted to take a second to say that I’ve been watching The Undertaker and his slow methodical walk to the ring for longer than many of our readers have been alive and it still gives me chills.
Ed’s Perspective: WWE Class of 2014 Hall of Fame Makes Me Very Happy!
Take a look at those 4 pictures. There really isn’t a lot I can write that hasn’t already been said about the current 2014 WWE Hall of Fame inductees. I’m sitting at my computer, looking at these 4 and I can’t find words that do them justice.
Amazing, outstanding, trail-blazer, superstar, diva……… nope, none of them come close.
Fortunately for me, I will be co-hosting a special live show on DTRT Wrestling Radio while I watch the Hall of Fame ceremony live on the WWE Network. I know this, it will be very hard to be Ed the journalist and not Ed the fan.

WWE To NXT Talent – Be Patient
WWE NXT talents were told at the recent set of TV tapings that the NXT product would be pushed more significantly now that the WWE Network is up. The talents were told that the company wants to get behind NXT as a pure wrestling product within the WWE. They were also told that while some people may be brought up, like Emma, it’s going to be a slow process and for everyone to be patient with the idea that with the Network, they’ll all be getting lots of exposure even without a call up.
News on CM Punk & RAW
There was indeed talk among WWE talent that CM Punk might return. They were told this this during Friday’s creative meeting, they didn’t know for sure until Monday afternoon. Wrestling Observer explains that was reason for the confusion. There was no plans to include Punk in the script but the crowd was fired up & the Paul Heyman open was added at the very last minute. The felling was that if they addressed it right at the beginning the crowd would settle down.
