GUNTHER and the rest of Imperium, Ludwig Kaiser and Giovanni Vinci, are in the middle of a dominant run on SmackDown.

WWE matches typically get a tough rep from Dave Meltzer. Despite being in business since all the way back in 1953, when Vincent J.

One of the most impressive international performers to come out of Europe in quite some time, Walter had already secured 11 titles, and four five-star matches before he ever signed a full-time deal thanks to his work in PWG, PROGRESS, […]

Gunther is one of the most domineering forces in the WWE Universe. He can chop down a tree with his palm strikes, toss foes out of the ring with a release german suplexes, and can powerbomb a bigger performer through the ring with his incredibly explosive upper body strength. As a result, Gunther really doesn’t […]

On the Fourth of July, RAW put on a very patriotic show. They had Bobby Lashley cut a very patriotic promo, had the Street Profits throwing a party in the parking lot, and members of the roster even had an impromptu hot dog eating contest in the vein of Nathan’s Famous Hot Dog Eating Contest, […]
