A look at the implications of the headbutt that Shibata delivered to Okada in one of the best matches of the year, and in all likihood, the choice that ended Shibata's career.

A great match, but it highlights a battle between today and tomorrow, just like Hart v. Michaels, and many many more.

A look at the RSPW Theszie Award-winning 2-out-of-3 Falls classic between The Revival and DIY in NXT, though really it's about the guys, their upsides, and what Tag Team wrestling really means today!

A 60 minute classic, but what does it say about what wrestling of this style was and is...? You can eMail me at journeyplanet@gmail.com
