Hello everyone! Let's cut to the chase, shall we? Here we go!
NFL
As you all know, the NFL Free Agency period will begin for the 2014 season. Prior to the start of free agency, the New York Jets cut Antonio Cromartie and Santonio Holmes. More will be announced as the time goes along.
WWE
Announced by WWE Mobile, Daniel Bryan will be teaming up with a mystery tag team partner. Tune into Raw to find out who is the mystery tag team partner.
Here is a recap of last week in the WWE:
That's all I have to say for now. Have a good week, and for those who have Spring Break, enjoy your break from school.
Hello everyone! I hope all of you had a great weekend. Let's cut to the chase, shall we? Here we go!
WWE
As you all know, Hulk Hogan will be making his return to the WWE after spending a few years with TNA Wrestling. Hogan will be making his return to Raw and will be the host of WrestleMania 30.
In addition, WWE Network has officially launched today. As I am typing this up, I am currently watching the pre-show of Raw. The best part of the WWE Network is that all of the Pay-Per-Views are included at no additional cost.
In case you didn't know, last night was the Elimination Chamber PPV. Here are the results from the PPV: Pre-Show
Cody Rhodes and Goldust def. Curtis Axel and Ryback

UFC
UFC Fight Night took place at Jaragua de Sul in Brazil this past Saturday on FOX Sports 1. Here are the results:
Please forgive me using Wikipedia directly. I am using an iPad to type up this post today.
WWE
As I mentioned earlier, if WWE and NBC Universal can't come to an agreement, WWE is allowed to meet with other partners. As of this weekend, WWE is officially a free agent in the US television market. More will be mentioned when news breaks out. Also, tonight's Raw is the go-home show to the Elimination Chamber PPV. What's notable about this is that Elimination Chamber is the last PPV under the traditional model as WWE Network launches the day after the PPV.
That's all I have to say for now. Have a nice week!
Hello everyone! I hope you all had a great weekend. As you all know, the NFL season has ended and MLB season hasn't started yet so from now up to WrestleMania, Wrestling with Green Pinstripes will be "wrestling heavy". MMA will be covered as well, but that's a discussion for another time. For now, let's discuss the WWE, shall we? Here we go!
WWE
As you have heard, WWE is currently re-negotiating a deal with NBCUniversal in terms of getting a new TV deal. This comes not too long after WWE announced their plans for WWE Network. Today, an update has emerged from the New York Post about this.
An exclusive negotiating period ended last week with no deal in sight. We hear the pressure is on for a deal to get done in the next few days.
An industry source told On the Money, “NBCU has until Friday, Feb. 14, to respond to WWE’s final offer.”
To read more on this: http://nypost.com/2014/02/08/valentines-breakup-nbcuniversal-and-wwe-may-split-up/. That means if a deal is not reached by the end of this week, WWE is open to listening to other networks for carriage rights to Monday Night Raw and Friday Night SmackDown (which currently air on USA Network and Syfy, respectively). However, NBCU is allowed to match the offer as well later on. Once more details are shared, I will pass along the information.
YES Network covered this topic about the WWE getting new TV deals during their show called "Forbes SportsMoney". Keep in mind, this is a few months outdated but for the most part it's spot on.
Speaking of Raw, tonight Raw will be emanating from Los Angeles, CA. Betty White is scheduled to guest star on the show.
That's all I have to say for now. Have a good week!
Hello everyone! I hope you all had a great weekend. Let's cut to the chase, shall we? Here we go!
NFL
As you all know, yesterday was the season finale of the 2013-14 NFL Season. And that means the Super Bowl took place between Seattle Seahawks and Denver Broncos at MetLife Stadium in East Rutherford, NJ. Not only did Seattle won the Super Bowl, they completely massacred the Denver Broncos. If you did not see this game, you didn't miss a thing. This game was completely a disaster for Denver and no effort was shown at all. You can say the game was already over before halftime. This isn't the first Super Bowl to end in a blowout, but it was the first Super Bowl that Peyton Manning participated that ended in a blowout. Manning will always be known as a great quarterback, but this was not his finest hour at all. Here are the highlights:
Congratulations to the +Seattle Seahawks on winning Super Bowl XLVIII. Now that the NFL season is officially a wrap, time to focus on baseball season. Which means you won't be hearing anything football related (unless circumstances warrant) after this until preseason.
WWE
If you haven't heard, CM Punk walked out on the WWE last week, likely due to burnout. It is unknown whether Punk will return to WWE or not. Here is a recap of what happened last week in the latest edition of "WWE in 5".
