Incredible. CM Punk has been 100% incredible for the past few weeks, even moreso after announcing that he would be gone from WWE on July 17th, immediately following the Money In The Bank pay-per-view. His promos have been solid gold bordering on worked-shoots while taking jabs at those within the company.
But tonight, he hit on some cylinders that most viewers wouldn’t have expected him to. He talked about John Cena being overrated as the “best wrestler in WWE”, how Vince McMahon is destroying his own company due to surrounding himself with yes-men and ass-kissers and that…

I don’t get excited about much these days. Oreo Cookies, Bulldog puppies, the way I can do like, 20 pushups without getting tired… those are just about at the top of the list.
But eeking them out is the newest effort from Junior Battles, “Idle Ages”. The full-length is set to release tomorrow on Paper + Plastick, but the entire album is up for a free stream at AOL Music right now. I’d recommend you check it out immediately, then buy it from the P+P website in some format. I’m about halfway through listening to it right…

The word of the week for this edition is “Wrestling”. Or, more specifically, “Impact Wrestling”. Impact Wrestling is the name change enacted by TNA Wrestling lately, though it’s hard to tell if it’s a company-wide name change or if it’s limited to the weekly television show on SpikeTV. Either way, it comes with a brand new slogan as well. In Impact Wrestling, “Wrestling Matters”. Slowly but surely, that’s becoming much more evident.
Sure, there are a lot of things that somebody can rant on Impact Wrestling about: the (generally) terrible storylines; the overpopulation of legends/guys past their prime;…

I’m gonna try something new here. I couldn’t really get behind vlogging about wrestling, because it’s hard to dish opinions on something by yourself without any input from anyone else. Similarly, I couldn’t really do a wrestling podcast with a friend because… well… I have no friends here who watch wrestling. So, I’ll take to the keyboard and tip-tap away at the keys. I’ll probably do it weekly so it has some regularity and base it off of something that irked me while watching the televised grapples during the week.
Welcome to Wrestlelogue! This week’s topic is “Credibility”. It’s something…

Life isn’t always what you want it to be, but there are tons of ways that we can change that. Change jobs, change locations, change friends, get a puppy… whatever. But if you don’t have the means to make those things happen, you can just Photoshop yourself into a better or more exciting life.
So that’s what I’m going to do. I’ll Photoshop my daily activities into something much more exciting to make my life seem that much more fun. Here’s the first one. Am I standing around at work in my preppiest and summeriest clothes, or am I skateboarding…

When Algernon Cadwallader decided to suddenly leak their own album to the internet a few weeks ago, fans rejoiced. It’s been 3 years since Algernon’s first full-length was released and won over a generation already in love with the indie/emo scene of the mid-late 90′s.
Since then, the band has drawn in thousands of fans as well as comparisons to legendary bands like Cap n’ Jazz and American Football. Algernon became one of the fore-runners in what many call the “emo-revival” scene. A ridiculous amount of hype began to surround the band, but all of it was true. Not only…

In late 2009, Small Brown Bike decided to get the original lineup back together to write new music, play sweet shows and have a blast. It had been about 6 years since their last release, so this news was like finding the Holy Grail (and not being one of the guys whose faces melted).
Some friends and I decided to make the 6 hour trek to see them play with Bridge & Tunnel at The Cake Shop in Brooklyn, NY on May 14, 2010. A few of the other jerks who were going with me had already seen them play…
