Sunset Flip Presents: Anti What?

Dear World Wrestling Entertainment 

When WWE is spoken among wrestling fans, you’ll get two responses. You’ll get that wrestling fan who has been with the company through the good, bad, and the unrecognizable ugly, but still fans of the company.  Then, you have those fans who gave up on WWE and wrestling in general. I’m really on the fence when it comes to my loyalty of your company. In the past, I’ve spoken about equality among the minorities in the company and wanting a fair opportunity for all talents. Thankfully, I must say with that issue, I’ve seen an impressive improvement. However, I have another issue with your company. I assure you, that my issue is reasonable and will not cross any boundaries.

Sunset Flip Presents: The Order of Wrestling

Sunset Flip Presents: The Order of Wrestling
By Jerrod Sullivan

When wrestling fans examine the landscape of wrestling, you’ll quickly understand WWE is the top wrestling company. You can look at other promotions, but the global reach of WWE is overwhelming and sometimes exhausting. Knowing WWE is the top promotion, you’ll become familiar with their superstars and how they develop through the years. Also, with superstar development, there are various storylines that help to evaluate a specific superstar or superstars. With that said, you will think they are be able to create new superstars, and stories that help make a wrestler get over or not. Granted, the wrestling fans have their say, but it’s also depends on how someone or something is presented to the audience. As one of those fans, I can say, the presentation of some stories and wrestlers have been not well received. On the other hand, the presentation a story and wrestler could be, but the ending could be underwhelming. Exactly, what stories and wrestlers are we talking about.

Sunset Flip Presents Did They Peak?

Sunset Flip Presents Did They Peak?
By Jerrod Sullivan

Has the C.M. Punk and John Cena feud reach their peak? After the promo heard around the world, the match dubbed a classic, and a semi-conclusion in Chicago, can this feud truly continue? I personally believed it had the potential, but that was quickly dismissed after the August 1, 2011 edition of Monday Night Raw. Before I question Raw, let us rewind to mid June.

On November 23rd 1990, at Survivor Series, the collective intake of breath was audible throughout the arena, throughout living rooms across the world. Chills ran down spines as the gong sounded, followed by the mournful but sinister sound of the funeral dirge. Out of the shadows came a fearful presence – huge, brooding, and implacable. As the behemoth took his first measured steps towards the ring, fans worldwide caught a glimpse of the deathly pale face, the dark eyes shadowed by the brim of his hat. This was no colorful cartoon-like gimmick. As he reached the ring, the world was introduced to a man who would leave his indelible imprint on the world of professional wrestling in ways no other performer has, or ever will. The man from the dark side – The Undertaker.

Anyone remember the Toughman competition? You know, that sport where redneck wannabe boxers step into a cheap ring in a seedy arena and beat the crap out of each other? You may have seen it on the FX Network, and it still sucked. Well, this 24 year old sport is the last thing you would expect the WWE to rip-off of, right? Well, if you thought that, you haven’t been watching the WWE for too long, or you have simply phased out the Brawl For All tournament.
