Welcome to the February 22 edition of WAI. Before we get going, some of you may have noticed that Timothy Smith (aka Rex King/Timothy Well) was reported dead Monday evening. Contrary to the reports from other sites, he’s very much alive. The World Wrestling Council, who had originally reported the death, rescinded the announcement after [...]
The Global Breakdown is ready to rock again! The Blitz is here to shine the white-hot spotlight of fame upon another wrestler.

Welcome to the fourth installment of WAI’s contribution to Black History Month. The first three segments were devoted to black wrestlers who were early pioneers in pro wrestling. However, like history, pro wrestling is always evolving with new pioneers and milestones. Case in point: The WWF Intercontinental title, which at one point held almost equal [...]

Welcome back to the Global Breakdown. Big Van Blitzko here with the second spotlight in what I hope will be as long a fruitful series as the Think Tank and WAI.

Welcome to the February 12 edition of WAI. Before we get started, I want to take a moment to discuss a disturbing trend that I’ve been noticing since I started writing for WNW and getting my wrestling news almost exclusively from here. There has been a major spike in immature comments on our (Matt, Kendra, [...]
