On October 4th, 2009, WWE presented Hell in a Cell 2009. As the show began, it featured the opening package of everything from matches involving Randy Orton faces John Cena for the WWE Championship, CM Punk versus The Undertaker for the World Heavyweight Championship to Degeneration X against Legacy. This event marked the first time Hell in a Cell was its own event. The first Hell in a Cell match took place in 1997. It would be twelve years later before the WWE would turn the match into an event. At Breaking Point the previous month, we see that the…

After a quarter of a century, Jerry Lynn excelled with each and every opportunity in front of him. His career initially began competing in the Northern United States in states such as Michigan and Minnesota. He captured the Light Heavyweight & Heavyweight Championships during his time in Pro Wrestling America. However, it would be the following year where Lynn would compete for Hall of Fame wrestler and promoter Verne Gagne as part of the American Wrestling Alliance (AWA). In fact, he was the last threat for the AWA World Heavyweight Championship that Larry Zbyszko held at the time. For Jerry…

Sometimes, a once-in-a-generation talent comes around and demonstrates such phenomenal ring-skill that it is impossible to ignore. Rey Mysterio Jr is such a talent, someone that fans simply watch in awe because of what he can do in and around the ring. Puerto Rican Jonathan Figueroa developed a name for himself long before the likes of Ricochet became household names in WWE. His career began when he trained under former WWF star Savio Vega as part of the International Wrestling Association. Amazing Red – Wrestling’s New-Age Pioneer of Innovation When Figueroa’s career started, he was simply known as ‘Red.’ However,…

The date was October 17th, 1983. The venue was the iconic Madison Square Gardens. It has been the home to some of sports and entertainment’s most prominent and brightest events. On this particular night, however, what proceeded to take place was nothing short of revolutionary in what could aptly titled The Splash Heard Around The World. The match pitted the current WWF Intercontinental Champion, ‘The Magnificent Don Muraco, to defend his title against rising Fijian star, ‘Superfly’ Jimmy Snuka. Splash Heard Around The World The two would take part in a match that wasn’t legendary, but between one rabid fanbase…

Most wrestling managers get remembered for one client, maybe two. Jimmy Hart spent close to fifty years attached to nearly every major heel act across three different promotions. And somehow still gets summed up by fans in a single image: a man in a loud jacket, screaming into a bullhorn, standing behind whoever the company needed protected that month. He never wrestled a match that mattered. He didn’t need to. Hart built one of the most decorated managerial careers in the business by starting as a pop singer, getting talked into wrestling almost by accident, and then simply refusing to…

From their debut in late 2005 to their influence on modern tag teams worldwide, LAX (Latin American Xchange) helped define TNA’s early identity. With a mix of street‑wise rebellion, intense promos, and hard‑hitting matches, the group — primarily Konnan, Homicide, and Hernandez — became one of the most impactful alliances in modern American wrestling history. Then LAX (Latin American Xchange) was the extreme opposite. I was a radical Latino who hated anything that wasn’t Latin. It was reverse discrimination, and that for some reason, it hit pulse. Some people loved it, and some people really hated it. But that group…

Few wrestlers currently working have a résumé that spans a small-town AAA debut, a stint under a mask nobody recognized, and a championship win over one of the biggest crossover stars in the sport, all inside a decade. Persephone has done all three. Born Priscilla Miranda in El Paso, Texas, on August 3, 2001, she’s become one of the most talked-about names in women’s lucha libre. As a binational wrestler who’s built a genuine following on both sides of the border and, as of 2026, holds championship gold in the promotion she came up in while also being one of…

On July 14th, 2013 from Philadelphia, Pennsylvania WWE presented Money In The Bank 2013. This event had some unique swerves and opportunities for all involved. Since the event was in Philadelphia, you can be assured that the fans will actively share their approval or lack thereof. This is the WWE Sunday Night Pay Per Retroview for Money In The Bank 2013. Money In The Bank 2013 World Championship Money in the Bank 2013 Ladder Match Fandango vs. Dean Ambrose vs. Wade Barrett .vs Cesaro vs. Jack Swagger vs. Damien Sandow vs. Cody Rhodes We kick off the Money In The…

Inheriting a famous mask is one of the more unusual pressures in professional wrestling, much like that in the case of Máscara Dorada. It means stepping into a character an audience already loves, built by someone else, with every comparison guaranteed before you’ve thrown a single dropkick. Máscara Dorada, born December 24, 2001, in Mexico City, took on that exact challenge in 2023, picking up a name that had belonged to a genuine CMLL and WWE star for the better part of a decade. Three years later, he’s a multi-time champion in CMLL, a rising name in AEW, and, by…

Some masked wrestlers spend a career waiting for the rest of the world to catch up to what their home crowd already knew. Hechicero is one of the clearer recent examples. He spent roughly a decade turning himself into one of CMLL’s most respected in-ring technicians. Twice its World Heavyweight Champion before a single televised match against Bryan Danielson introduced him to an American audience that had mostly never heard his name. Since then, he’s become the first wrestler in history to hold a simultaneous contract with both AEW and CMLL, all while staying rooted in the northern Mexican independent…
