I really didn’t know how to start this. There’s so much going on, so much to write about, but everything is so much longer than these couple paragraphs before I start writing about RAW. I’m writing about Laurinaitis, but that will be its own piece, not enough room here to completely discuss Laurinaitis’ past, all [...]
Welcome to the first edition of WAI: The Global Breakdown. I’m Shawn Forester, but you may know me here on WrestlingNewsWorld as Big Van Blitzko. As a wrestling fan and as a person who attempts to know as much about a subject as possible, I have made it a personal mission to gain a knowledge [...]
Welcome, my friends to the February 7 edition of WAI. Today is the big day: The debut of The Global Breakdown. I hope y’all are almost as excited about it as I am. Without any further ado, let’s get to today’s WAI. February 7 in pro wrestling history: – 1963: NWA world champion Lou Thesz [...]
NEW THINK TANK QUESTION “Our illustrious leader of WNW, Richard Gray, asked us all to reserve judgment, until after a couple of weeks, to give the character time to develop before praising/condemning it. Well…it’s been a little over a month now and inquiring minds want to know. What do YOU think of the “Funkasaurus” Brodus [...]
Welcome, my dear Nation, to the first part of WAI’s contribution to Black History Month. I had to nab this great subject that had gotten overshadowed by excitement for the Royal Rumble and WrestleMania. Take the time to check out Dan’s WrestleMania segments, as they’re great reading! On to the first wrestler to be featured [...]
Welcome, my dear Nation, to the February 6, 2012 edition of WAI. Now that the Super Bowl is over, we can get down to wrestling business.

NEW THINK TANK QUESTION “In light of TNA’s overwhelming success in India and selling out Wembley Stadium in London, it has become apparent that the company is reaching greater heights overseas than in its homeland. If you were Dixie, (I know…not AGAIN…Ha!), what would your next move be after digesting this information?” PREVIOUS THINK TANK QUESTION “Throughout the [...]
After the success of WrestleMania I, Vince McMahon was now faced with the daunting challenge of following up his masterpiece, with yet another fantastic supercard. A little over a year later on April 7, 1986, McMahon and the WWF put on WrestleMania 2. In a move to try and up the ante from a year [...]
Welcome, my dear Nation, to the February 3 edition of WAI. As per yesterday’s reaction to the bonus piece/test run, I’m proud to announce that we WILL be having our weekly feature. It will be called WAI: The Global Breakdown and will be under the WAI category so that all my posts are in the [...]
I really went to start this on a high note, so I want to talk about a few new things that have popped up on the front page of WNW today. First off Shawn, otherwise known as Big Van Blitzko, started a new weekly WAI Bonus that’s more of a ‘Did You Know?’ type article. [...]
So in light of Kendra Bunyon’s recent Royal Rumble series, I have decided to do something along the same lines with WrestleMania. The premier event in professional wrestling deserves the spotlight this time of year, and with so many great pro wrestling memories revolving around the Spring Classic I feel it is time to wake [...]
Welcome, my dear Nation to this bonus…OK I lied, it’s not a bonus. As you will have noticed, the format of my bonus pieces has changed drastically over the past couple weeks and I’ve been including more international influences. This has all been to prime you for this test run of a project I had [...]
Welcome, my dear Nation, to the February 2 edition of WAI. Today is the day of the big surprise, so if you’ll kindly go over to the bonus once you’re done here, you’ll see it for yourselves. February 2 in pro wrestling history: Hehehe, I think I once said that featuring a von Erich on [...]
Okay, I admit it, I sat down and watched Celebrity Wife Swap the other night. It’s not something I normally watch, but it was Mick Foley and we all know how I feel about him. I have to admit that I’m not a big Antonio Sabato Jr. fan, but I am of the right age [...]
NEW THINK TANK QUESTION “Throughout the history of pro wrestling, talent enhancement workers have been used as a means to magnify the skills of the performers they were working with. Although not as prominent in today’s day and age, which “jobber” was/is your favorite to watch and why?” PREVIOUS THINK TANK QUESTION “As wrestling [...]
Welcome, my dear Nation, to the February 1 edition of WAI. Throughout the month (after this week), I’ll be slipping in bonus pieces on some of professional wrestling’s most prolific African-American wrestlers as February is Black History Month in the United States. Let’s get going with today’s WAI. February 1 in pro wrestling history: – [...]
I know a lot of people were very unhappy with the way the Royal Rumble went down. The only reason I’m unhappy is because in the end Stacy and I swapped our predictions, so I had Drew McIntyre and he had Sheamus, even though Sheamus was in my top three for the past month. I [...]
Welcome to the WAI Bonus Lounge. I’m sure you will find today’s topic rather interesting to tear apart. Unlike previous installments, this will only be a one-day shot, so pay very close attention.
