A final look at WWE this decade by examining WrestleManias 32-35 like a script doctor, re-writing the line-ups in logical ways that would’ve made them better

Follow @TheDocLOP

This week, The Doc has WrestleMania on the brain. For years, December brought that excited feeling to prognosticate about the upcoming Show of Shows. Now, the excitement is in re-writing the past to prove it could and should have been better.

Reviewing the decade throughout the course of this year, one thing became readily apparent to Doc: WrestleMania in the first half of the decade had its misses, but the hits were all-time level great. So, what happened? WrestleMania 32, 33, 34, and 35 are the most critically panned consecutive foursome of “Granddadies” this century. Even at its best, this year’s to be specific, the event has often been characterized as much for its flaws as its successes. Imagine if a half decade went by and WrestleMania 25 was considered the best of the lot. That’s our reality in 2019.

So, with that in mind, The Doc is getting back into one of his favorite modes of wrestling conversation: fantasy land! Doc is re-writing recent WrestleMania lore and proving (as much as is possible) that a few simple, logical tweaks could have changed the game, not just at the Showcase of the Immortals, but in WWE overall.

The Attitude Of Aggression returns for another installment of The Big Four Project, a chronological analysis, review, and discussion about WWE’s Big Four PPVs/ Premium Live Events. On this Episode, the calendar turns to 1993, a year of massive change in the WWE. We begin with Royal Rumble ’93. It is an event where the undercard outshone the actual Rumble match as we got two massive title matches with Shawn Michaels defending the Intercontinental Championship against his former tag partner, Marty Jannety, and Bret “Hitman” Hart defending the WWE Championship against The Bad Guy, Razor Ramon. The Rumble match itself is notable as this was the event that started the tradition of the Rumble winner challenging for the championship at WrestleMania. While there was no way the 1993 installment could hope to match the 1992 edition, Royal Rumble ’93 certainly announced to the world that Yokozuna had arrived….and was going to be a huge problem for the entire roster. All that plus behind-the-scenes stories and lesser-known factoids the Big Four Project famously delivers time and time again. Join us here for all that and much more on another epic installment of The Big Four Project!

On this week’s edition of Hockey Talk, the guys take a look at the first round of the 2024 NHL Playoffs. The best teams and highest seeds flexed their muscle during the opening round of the playoffs. Out East, it was Chalk City as the Rangers, Hurricanes, Bruins, and Panthers took firm control of their respective series. The West, on the other hand, was far less certain as most of those series were shaping up to be tough, hard-fought, battles to the very end. Which teams impressed the guys the most and which likely second round series are they most excited about? Tune in and find out!
