There's a Tweet that's been on my mind lately. It's haunted me since the first moment I was tagged in it. There is so much truth in this Tweet. I don't know if "redneck anime" is 100% accurate, but wrestling fandoms are very similar to anime fandoms and wrestling itself shares a lot of tropes with the Japanese entertainment. Here are a few examples that I can think of off the top of my head: Fandom-wise, you’ve got your pervy/misogynistic fans (“bring back bra and panty match

Monday Night RAW Highlights #1 – Seth Rollins defeated Finn Balor in their last face-off before WrestleMania 34 this Sunday, April 8th. This match could have been on a pay-per-view. In fact, there was a shout-out to a past match the two had at SummerSlam 2016, where they fought to see who would be the inaugural Universal Champion. In that match, despite Balor winning, Rollins seriously injured him on a very specific barricade. On RAW, Rollins was about to toss Balor into the

Elimination Chamber Elimination Chamber was a fine pay-per-view, it could’ve been worse, it could’ve been better. The preshow match between The Club (Luke Gallows and Karl Anderson) and The Miztourage (Bo Dallas and Curtis Axel) went exactly how anyone should’ve guessed it would, with The Club getting the win over The Miztourage. Then Elimination Chamber started with the Women’s first ever Chamber match. While it was good, it was not as entertaining as the first ever Women’s

Monday Night RAW Highlights RAW kicked off with a two-hour long Gauntlet match. And oh my god, it was incredible. It could have been the whole show and I think it’d still be good. For those who don’t know, a gauntlet match starts with two Superstars in the ring and they fight until one eliminates the other through pin-fall, count-out, etc. Then another person comes out to fight the person who won. This gauntlet match was between all the men who will be in the seven-man Elimin

For those of you who may not know, February is Black History Month and WOCR had the privilege of having speaker Natilie Williams in the studio for an on-air interview, after she spoke at Olivet’s Black History Month program. The station would like to extend thanks and gratitude to her for joining us! In this interview, she shares with me her college experience, her thoughts on the importance of Black History Month, the show "It's A Different World", and more! To follow Natili

Royal Rumble Highlights #1 – First off, that Women’s Rumble. It was the main event of the show and was excellent. There were so many Legends that returned, Hall of Famers, a couple of NXT call-ups that were surprising. But WWE definitely saved more spots for Women Past than Women Future. The reason for this is likely that the past women had never had a chance to main event a pay-per-view back in the day so for me, it felt like a “we’re sorry, thank you” gesture. Some surprise

WWE's Royal Rumble weekend is upon us, with promising matches on the card of NXT Takeover: Philadelphia and the Royal Rumble pay-per-view itself. As someone who regularly follows WWE, I like to make predictions on how PPVs will go. Accompanied by self-proclaimed best author in the world, Adam "Smalls" Walle and OC-grad-gone-professor, Daine "D. Pav" Pavloski, here are my predictions for Rumble weekend. Fun fact: Wix doesn't allow tables! Enjoy these PNGs. #wrestling #wwe #cwr

Monday Night RAW Highlights This past Monday was RAW’s 25th anniversary episode, and I honestly have to say I would recommend seeing the entire episode. The show was chock full of WWE Legends, it was so much fun hearing all the old themes. The show took place in two different locations. One was the Manhattan Center, which was all decked out in old memorabilia and had an old-school ring setup. Instead of the cushioned barricades that the WWE uses now, they had the old metal on

Monday Night RAW Highlights #1 – Braun Strowman gets fired. Yes, that is the highlight because after General Manager Kurt Angle fired Strowman for his actions last week (see: throwing metal storage containers and using grappling hooks to pull down scaffolding onto two other people), the Monster Among Men went on an hour long rampage through the backstage of the AT&T Center. This culminated when Strowman pulled a semi-truck onto its side with his sheer, godlike strength and ab
